Re: General chit chat

Hello Claire 🙂 @outlander

Thank you for the flowers Heart

I'm fine and hope you are too 🙂

I've read you nearly have the house to yourself and your Pop, very exciting 🙂

I'm not feeling as confident in Forum Land at the moment, so I'm stepping back a little.

Love to you Claire Heart

Re: General chit chat

Spoilt with choices. But deciding too take no action. And leaning towards the hermit and recluse like lifestyle. Plus, resorting too addiction and the creative writing thing. And hoping it turns into a legacy which leaves a mark. Sound normal?

Re: General chit chat

So do I ClaireHeart @outlander 🙂 It kinda doesn't feel real at the moment, that's the norm, and not long after I get back - it won't feel real again . . . but I'm still determined 🙂

How are you today? Did visiting the Doctor help? Are you getting much sleep? Should I stop the 3rd degree now?!:D

I think I might settle back and watch a movie, I got another series of Outlander from the library - maybe I'll look at one of those.

I hope your doing Ok, . . . inside your head, feeling a balance of some sort.

Love to you ClaireHeart

Re: General chit chat

it is real @Former-Member keep taking pictures and put them in a camping album and when it starts to feel less real take a look back Heart

im not really that good, ive had a bad back and neck flare up and the pain relieif is only just kicking in after getting stronger stuff. i ended up on the floor earlier on today 😞  i havent moved off my bed today except to get up for the bathroom but thats when i ended up on the floor. i havent been sleeping- thats nothing new though but the pain is making it even harder to sleep.  the drs didnt help me at all and im considering changing to a new one now because she isnt helping me at all. 

ive just finished watching both season 1 and season 2 of outlander. im waiting for season 3 to come out on dvd so i can buy it.  are you enjyoing it?

how have you been?

love to you and lots of hugs xo Heart

Re: General chit chat

Good morning ClaireHeart @outlanderHeart,

I'm just having a cuppa and a smoke, before I start running around like a chook with it's head cut off!

Sorry about your back and neck, you poor thing, I know a bit about having a pain in the neck! For me it hurts the whole body, every movement you make causes pain somewhere in the body! How's the lungs going, have they cleared up? You've had so much discomfort for so long, I don't think changing Doctors would hurt, getting a different set of medical eyes looking into your situation. I'm also sorry to hear your not sleeping {though I know it's the norm}, I had hoped that when you finally got a room to yourself {have you decorated it yet?} that sleep might come a little easier.

I didn't end up watching an episode of Outlander last night, I'm saving them for camping 🙂 I enjoyed the first dvd set I got, so I reckon I'll enjoy this one too. It's good to know they'll be a 3rd season 😄

I've been fine, well a bit wonky, but managable. My heads been a bit off-kilter since the virus got me on the way home from the center and really went a bit haywire after the neighbour chained up my dog. I think that's the main reason I've gotten the motorvation to go - I want to get away from that neighbour!

Lots of love and extra-special hugs from your Nanny Niqua Heart

Re: General chit chat

hello Niqua Heart very appreciative of the hugs, sending some to you too. i hope you have an awesome time away 

yes, when my back and neck flares it affects my whole body. it affects it all the time and my ability to do alot of things but when it flares it sends me flying. i had the home dr out last night because of it. 

yeah the lungs are working fine now. i still have a cough every now and then and the heat takes me breath away abit but it is alot better. 

i have redocorated my room. i still need 2 pieces of furniture but im waiting till after xmas and then going to get them on afterpay and pay them off that way. 

yes, i cant wait to watch season 3. i hope it comes out on dvd soon. 

that virus did knock you around alot, please make sure you look after yourself and let your body heal Heart

Re: General chit chat

Hello MazyHeart  @Mazarita, ClaireHeart @outlander and Everyone 🙂

I'm here at my camping spot, it's lovely 😄 A running creek, lots of wild birds, the grass is cut, there is 1 other camp set up here, but it's a long way away and I can't see them {well, I think I can see their lights ;)}. There's also plenty of trees for shade and yet plenty of clear spots to park {away from falling branches}. I like my set-up, it's working great 😄 😄 I've got a Gazebo out the back of my ute and the roof rack dome sheltering my gear up top; a large cage {that the cat uses through the day and the young fella sleeps in at night, and a small 'travel' cage for the cat {to sleep and travel in}. I LOVE my new fancy reclining camp chair!!! It is sooooo comfortable 😄 😄 The portable solar panel charges up a car battery and a small 12vt one, so I can use this computer {AND there's signal here, I even got my nightly call from my child!!!}, charge everything up {comp, camera, phone, modem} The little battery I use for a small pump on my 20lt water container {so I don't have to lift it}, light, fan and shower! It's just . . . all good 😄 I'm so glad I pushed myself a little to get here! When I was packing I really didn't feel like I was going to go - wouldn't be the first time I'd spent days organizing everything, then another couple physically packing and moving stuff . . . and not gone.

So I'm thinking I've got it right enough to leave it be and go 'as is' to the Center of my Universe for xmas 🙂 The load didn't seem to shift at all on top, everything fitted in a fairly comfortable way. The critters seemed to have plenty of room on the trip, though this one was only an hour and a half, my center is over 4 and a half - but they seemed Ok. I'm planning to stay at my center for January {don't know if it'll happen yet} and go to some camping spots there, but I get the feeling being xmas hols everywhere will be horribly crowded and I won't enjoy the experience.

Well, I think it's time to watch an episode of Outlander 😄

Love to everyone who wants it Heart

Niqua
