The plan is lots of brightly coloured ones and a few booby ones thrown in when I have the yarn colours available. I know at least one midwife up there and she is really conscious of stuff like this so I know her and the rest of the staff would be great with it.
You know what’s infuriating? Needing to email your MP about so many things but not wanting to look like that constituent who complains all the time but there are numerous issues that need addressing because they directly impact me and loved ones and I’m stressed out about getting it wrong.
Have you tried minoxidil on the face?? I know a lot of guys have some great results with it.
Very tempted to do this on the side of our house that is on an alley.
See this is why when I start my hat making for the maternity ward at our local hospital, I want to do the booby hats.
You’re finally moving?! That’s great news!!!
And this doesn’t even begin to touch on the rest of everything.
You want a piss?? Do you look like the stereotype of the person who should be using that facility?? No?? Then fuck off.
Changes to PIP will kill people. If you’re not disabled enough to score the right points in the right place(s), you could be facing a loss of £900+ per month and forced into unsuitable work conditions.
You rely on on the ASF to provide the therapeutic input your child(ren) need to even begin to be capable of any independence? Tough shit. This policy alone will see more families disrupt. Disruption means the child(ren) going back in to care, costing thousands.
Things that have been fucked completely in the last few weeks:
The adoption and special guardianship support fund (down from a 7k per year per child to 3k)
Disability benefits.
Trans, intersex and non stereotypically looking women who use public changing and/or toileting spaces.
Using alcohol to numb my brain and make today less present in my mind. Not healthy but I need some sort of something tonight. I’m so angry.
When you’re asthmatic, wheezing and coughing but can’t be arsed to get up to find your inhaler.
Normally a GP would do it in the surgery but there were only 2 trained, 1 died the other retired so no one is getting it changed. After months of back and forth, the referral went off but it’s 18 months + for an appointment. So in the meantime, I have to hope.
Before the age of 50.
Apparently so but I’ll never find that bit out thankfully. Worst thing for me is that the coil stopped it all and now needs changing but my surgery won’t do it and have been awful about a gynae referral despite 4 generations of gynae cancer in the family.
Regularly lasted 10-14 days. My longest was 21. 2 hours was the max with an overnight pad. Clots the size of a walnut. Lying on the floor, almost passing out from the pain. Gynae consultant said my body was going in to labour each time. Go me!!
once I was at the ophthalmologist and he was checking my eyes and how I saw colors and he said “the thing about biology is nature doesn’t really do binaries, only spectrums” and I think about that a lot
I asked if she was talking to me and the pure PANIC that I heard as the call was disconnected. Perfect.
Called the doctors to ask about blood results and the receptionist must be new. Started by talking to me on mute so I couldn’t hear her then after we spoke, she thought she put the phone down and I heard, “how dya even pronounced that Mx because they don’t want to be a Mrs or Mr.”
5 of my 11 blood test results are in and they’re allll normal so far. Fatigue is worse than ever. Awesome
It has made me realise why I need the two businesses though. I was soooo fidgety by the end of my day today.
Day 2 of an intensive driving course and I’m knackered. Only another 9 to go!!
When you have a log burner and your wife brings you a gift home…
Spent some time tidying the garden and I’m on the edge of nausea again. I really hope the blood tests figure out what’s happening because this is bullshit.
Morning so far….filling in pip form for our eldest kid. Genuinely worried about it because he needs it and the way things are at the minute, it’s debatable whether or not he’ll have it awarded and the fight to get it will be long and exhausting.
My kids have taken to consistently mouth breathing and loud chewing/making mouth noises whilst eating. I cannot.
First time I remember being up for it…my granny always wanted to sit up and watch her clock automatically change but never did so I watched it for her.
My heart is also broken.
