Actually, if the stuff isn't breakable, bin bags are easier to load and carry than boxes.

...and easier to snag and tear. And less "storable-for-unpacking-later" which could be a positive or a negative......

Okay, I'm here in Otley, using free wifi in a cafe.
Just wanted to log on to say thank you so much to all the Dwellars for their card and housewarming gift.
And of course my Christasteers for going above and beyond in terms of physical moving.
This is a general catch-up, as there's only so long I can eke out a cup of tea.

Still disorientated and emotionally unstable. Still overwhelmed. Had an afternoon kip and woke up completely disorientated. I felt a rush of panic and had to breathe myself back down. I did though.

I'll write things up properly when I can include photos and also feel 100% confident of feeling confident, so as to do this place and the help I've had proper justice.
Which is why this post is here and not in the location thread.

Just for the record I joined the library today and got forms from the Doctors (I need to findsome paperwork to provide some of the details they require).
The library and Post Office are right behind my flat.
Going to see a film at the Courthouse tonight, it's a Community Centre, not an odd name for a cinema. May as well do that than stare at the walls.

Going home form here (approx 2 minutes walk) via a cheap shop where I can get a dustpan and brush for under £3, which apparently the three large supermarkets can't manage!
Then Argos to get my Cellar-camera.

I keep worrying about leaving the flat for too long because of Diz.
Then remember he's not there at present.
I miss him tons, but it really is for the best.

Raining here. Has been on and off since I arrived.
No worries about sunstroke here I guess.

Thanks for checking in. I was wondering how it was going.

BigV · 05-08-2014, 02:22 PM

Good to see you've landed safely. Enjoy the film.

Every time you do this, it'll be a little easier next time. x

Nice Blog, Limey. You take nice pictures too.

Aliantha · 05-08-2014, 05:29 PM

It sounds perfect Sundae. Chin up lovely. You will get there. Xx

Aliantha · 05-08-2014, 05:30 PM

Better pm your new address to those of us who might want it too btw.

Starting to wish I brought my IPad to watch some tv shows. I'm sitting here in the waiting room with my mom, both waiting for her to be taken back to prep for surgery. Ugh! I only brought a Time magazine to read. Thought that and the Cellar and FB will be enough to keep me company, but my eyes are starting to get tired. :-(

glatt · 05-12-2014, 11:34 AM

Waiting rooms suck. I find that I can't even concentrate on what I'm reading when I'm sitting in one.

Lola Bunny · 05-12-2014, 02:01 PM

Found out there was a hiccup in the scheduling at the hospital. They had cancelled her surgery so she had to put back on as add-on. That's why the wait was so long. Finally in the prepping room. Been here for 1 1/2 hrs. Sigh...hungry. Will run to the mall for lunch once my mom gets pushed into surgery room. (Hospital is across from the mall, hihi.)

Does not sound much fun - hospital/clinic waiting rooms are horrible places to wait!

Lola Bunny · 05-12-2014, 02:28 PM

Yeah. And it gets cold after a while too. I will go home for a bit after her surgery is done, (my sister will come then), then I will come back to stay with my mom tonight.

I didn't get home until 6:30. :-/ I went back in at 9. I thought I could just sleep through the night. But dangit, the monitors keeps on beeping and my mom keeps on shifting. Why doesn't she sleep??? As soon as I lie down, the nurse will come. Rain is hitting on the big glass window and it's thundering.

....The nurse came. He turned off the monitor and gave my mom some strong painkillers. I hope she doesn't get extreme nausea like I did. How come she won't close her eyes??!!!??? She won't have a chance to rest tomorrow. They'll be dragging her to physical therapy twice tomorrow. Okay, I'm gonna try to catch some snooze before the nurse comes in to give more morphine 1 1/2 hrs. later.
