Yes we have had lots of support and are getting more of a rest today fortunately.

Making pots today and hoping to maybe even paint.

Thinking of taking today off from visiting the ward, but the nurses are going to let me know if that's a viable plan.

Long long night on the ward.

So tired.

For the record, I am not a large Asian superpower whose economy relies on Iranian oil.

I'm a middle aged human woman who lives in Aotearoa and drives an 18 year old hybrid minivan about 10km a year.

idk but if I were a large Asian superpower whose economy relied on Iranian oil, I'd be pretty pissed if another giant ass country decided to bomb the fuck out of Iran's oil infrastructure.

Back to the ward this afternoon. Taking this morning to make some pots, tidy up a bit, and make some food.

Hoping we are finally on the upswing. 🀞

I ate some some toast and the improved my mood and energy levels so much.

I think that actually I have been forgetting to eat good food and failing to get enough sleep this week.

Which, I mean, fair enough under the circumstances. But this looks like a marathon, not a sprint unfortunately.

Look, I'm no international relations expert, but I'm starting to think starting a war with Iran was a really fucking stupid thing to do.

Oh yay! I'm so glad to hear it. Will have to add it to my list once I have reading time again . . .

I have a whole set of Other Big Stuff happening in my life, so I keep just glancing at the news . . . and every time I do, it just gets worse and worse and worse.

TOP is being funded by a far, far right white supremacist.

So tired. Literally can’t keep my eyes open.

Which sucks! Because I have to get home from my ward visit now.

I presume my views on this are now widely understood.

My house is finally fixed at least!

Husband just went to bed. Which was good because it left more wine for me.

Therapist said to drink some wine and I did and now I feel better.

Drunk. But better!

Thanks πŸ™ I think I’m just really tired. The hospital staff have been great. It’s just been a really hard stretch in the midst of a bigger hard stretch.

I need a holiday. And a massage. And like a really nice dinner out.

Kiddo still in hospital. Not sure yet for how long.

Very tired. Very annoyed our health service can’t provide decent food for patients. Very annoyed that the agencies that are supposed to support our family aren’t able to do so without an argument.

But most of all just exhausted. 😩

I’m worried we won’t be able to buy if this continues . . . export controls seem likely.
