Today is a really hard day.
Today we finally had to move my nana into respite care. She’s not taking it well. Neither are we
Today Mr Omoikiri is having his wisdom teeth out. And while it’s completely routine and there no danger in it, I’m sick with worry and waiting around to get the call that he’s fine and I can go and pick him up.
Today I have to review this 80,000 word thesis and get to back to my supervisors.
I am so mentally and emotionally drained and my day isn’t even half done.
Oh, that’s a lot all at once. Best of luck for Mr Omoikiri and your thesis review, and that your nana becomes more settled in respite. It’s so hard for people in that situation to understand that it can actually be a good thing for both them & their carers. Have been through that with my dad & understand what you’re going through. hugs
Sending positivity. ✨
