I am so glad! It is so dangerous. My friend Robert has a dog and walks him a few times a day. I worry so much.

Yeah, i wouldnt worry bobby. Like Bizi said, 6 feet. I finally went out today and the fresh air was nice and i saw the park all taped over down the street. What wild times! I took some pics. Lol haven't done pics in a long while! Felt oddly refreshing To have some inspiration! Go figure!


Also, hi Donna! Sending my best!

mymorgy 03-28-2020 09:58 PM

he emailed me and said three nurses petted danny for five minutes=that isn't six feet.

Dmom3005 03-29-2020 04:43 AM

Bobby,

Look at it that the nurses really needed Danny's petting. And if he was walking him, then it might have been the three together and Danny going to them.

I'd worry more if he didn't allow them to.
He wants Danny to do his part.

It's good to be out some.


Bizi, finally yesterday afternoon I felt good. I'm getting tired of the sick headaches. But just life.

Today is an new day.

Donna

mymorgy 03-29-2020 05:22 AM

but robert wasn't six feet away and the nurses could have been exposed to the virus. Robert is in his seventies. I don't think he could take it if he got the virus. I am so sorry about your headaches.

I have this bored kid who keeps cleaning it's almost midnight. And he is cleaning again.

I shouldn't be complaining but it's hard to relax when He cleans most of the time.

Donna

mymorgy 03-31-2020 03:28 AM

how can you relax with this virus? so many people are dying and getting it.

Dmom3005 03-31-2020 12:13 PM

Bobby

I'm not going out much. And I'm not listening to the news. Thankfully I have
Derrick here. But at times I get irritated at him, cleaning at midnight is too much.

But it's him, he was bored. So I just sat on couch and helped. Dictated were what went. But that is exhausting.

I've got a choice relax or stress and hurt from top to bottom of body. That's what my fibro does. No thanks

mymorgy 03-31-2020 12:58 PM

wow....what strength you have!

Dmom3005 04-01-2020 04:22 PM

Bobby,

I think it's an strength my mom gave me. To get through things, And try and do things one day at a time. Anyway, last night I needed it.

I was caught of guard the day.was going very well, but all the sudden Derrick had problems. But I didn't realize right away he was. He had put dogs out for a bathroom break. And was getting them in.

He came in told me something really really bad stinks out there. He got really dizzy and bad breathing, should have been my warning. He was having seizure. But no he went to throw up, and I call 911 And they couldn't find anything and I remembered the smell seizure

mymorgy 04-01-2020 04:30 PM

I sincerely hope he recovered fast. How often do they happen? Your mother sounds an incredible woman.
fondly
bobby

GeeLuv 04-01-2020 07:23 PM

Derrick is your son, Donna? I'm sorry he has to go through that and you have to deal with it. My cousin, through adoption, and her son and daughter suffer from seizures. It's really sad and scary. My grandfather on my mom's side had epilepsy, so he had them too apparently, but I only ever really witnessed my cousin and heard about her son a few times. They are a dear family. I mean they've suffered a lot of physical and mental issues and I admire their strength. Actually, cousin has bipolar. That's my main experience with bipolar actually. She's been in hospital several times and well, PTSD really complicates her mental health too. Sigh!

Dmom3005 04-01-2020 10:28 PM

Gee,

Yes, Derrick is my youngest, he has epilepsy. Has since he was around 6 years old. It's much better now than it's ever been. He usually has about one every 3months. Biggest deal is not knowing when.

My middle son, Devin has learning disabilities, ADHD which was severe as a child, much better, migraines and depression that comes and goes. He does well know.

My oldest is my tough case, Dan has ADD, and he still is bad, memory non-existent as child, no meds worked till 16 for intermittent explosive disorder, bipolar, and he has learning disabilities all also. It's taken lots of work and patience to find him medicines the work at all. He right now is handling his disabilities very well at almost 39, he is on disability also.

Because of his memory problems he gets an shot with his medicines once a month. And takes one pill a day.

mymorgy 04-02-2020 03:41 AM

you have such a full plate.
fondly
bobby

Dmom3005 04-04-2020 09:55 PM

Well tomorrow is my 62 nd birthday. I really hate this virus. But once again Derrick is stepping up to.cook for me.

He is great

mymorgy 04-05-2020 06:04 AM

an early happy birthday.
fondly
bobby

GeeLuv 04-05-2020 11:30 AM

Happy birthday Donna!!! ((((party balloons and streamers))) :D

Dmom3005 04-07-2020 11:37 PM

Derrick and Dale went to run errands today. So I had sometime to myself.

But I am always glad when Derrick is here

Donna

Dmom3005 04-08-2020 09:56 PM

We have had bad weather in parts of Indiana tonight not sure yet if tornadoes or just winds. Not in my exact area but allover. So keep the state in your thoughts

GeeLuv 04-09-2020 12:40 AM

(((hugs))) thinking of you. Hope it passes without trouble.

Dmom3005 04-15-2020 07:09 PM

Today, has been a rough day. An cousin I just got back in contact with on Facebook died from the virus in Texas last night. He was I believe probably about 5 years older than me. I hadn't even noticed he hadn't been posting much lately.

Derrick and I are good. Everyone else is too as far as I know.

Donna

GeeLuv 04-15-2020 09:36 PM

((((Hugs))))

Donna, I'm so sorry to hear the news. My condolences. I really hope this thing gets solved soon. Just horrible what's happening. But we must also remember that there is a lot of love going around as well. Not everyone is being stupid and careless. And I'm not even saying your cousin was either. It's just a really tough situation we're in right now. I wish I could find the right words right now, but while I'm thinking about that, my thoughts are with you and your family. It is a sad day, I can see that. I'm sorry. More hugs for you!

Dmom3005 04-15-2020 10:54 PM

Gee

I totally understand. And just like with many others I have a feeling they don't know how he got it.

It just brought it home more how it can end at any time. I know over the weekend one of the families I've worked with for over a year. One of their twins who is in residential needed mental health treatment. And when they got him there gave parents the double whammy, he won't be able to come back when released. Which would have jeopardized his funding in placement, everyone's safety and more. Likely it was solved but it's what we all worry about

mymorgy 04-17-2020 03:33 AM

i am so sorry.
fondly
bobby

Mari 04-18-2020 05:19 AM

Sorry, Donna.


:Heart:

Dmom3005 04-25-2020 04:40 PM

Derrick and I still in home type mess. He and my husband went to town on Thursday to get his medicine. And some groceries. We go out to get mail and to convenience store, sometimes dollar General and that is it. Except he has been taking dogs for a walk some.

Hoping he can do some more soon.
Tired of rainy weather and mainly no sunshine. Ugh not nice weather.

Feel bad for two grandsons not getting traditional end of graduation this year. But think family cares more than either of them do. They are more loners.

Donna

GeeLuv 04-26-2020 01:33 PM

Yea we had rain and gloom yesterday as well. That wasn't helping my mood. Seems the sun is returning today though, but I have to get myself ready before going out and enjoying it.

Dmom3005 04-30-2020 07:23 PM

Hello, everyone

Derrick and I have been doing pretty good. He really does an great job cooking.
He had an zoom today with an group from his school for his sadder which was really good. He has to get his test retake by January 2021. So it was an good timing.

Donna

Is that really going to be the day of lifting up restrictions for restaurants? I guess the governor might not want to follow the cdcs recommendations?
We will have to wait and see.
