@Razzle Maybe its your mum's brain triggering that she knows you need a mum and not seeing the YOU while you are doing the mumming for her.
Hugs. Its such a hard shift in perspective.
Have a Good Day ALL

G'day @Appleblossom @MDT @TAB @Ant7 @Meowmy @Razzle
Apple has a good point Raz - your Mum sees you as being a Mum right now - tough for you okay - I get it - after all - you need your mother right now too
I remember when I was parked in a lobby or somewhere in a hospital after I'd had a myelogram and I didn't have my glasses on and badly wanted my mother - knowing she was unlikely to appear - but still - we can hope
And I saw a lady that looked similar - really similar - and she came out of the mist and looked like my mother yes - but she wasn't
But she understood - she spoke to me for a few minutes and how I appreciated that
It really natural for us to need our mothers - I really do understand.
I care about that

Hi @Meowmy @Owlunar @Appleblossom @MDT @TAB @saturnzoon etc. Been an up and down day. Had trouble getting motivated to get going. Got to the pool and did 20 laps then saw B this afternoon. Went through stuff and totally exhausted now. Next task is to finish decor stuff for ladies night. BUT that will have to wait until tomorrow or Wed (not needed until Wed night 5pm for setup)
Hoping to get a decent sleep later tonight (just gone 4 here) for change. Did drop off yesterday when I came home from church. Sat down to watch Operation Ouch and next thing it was 3 pm. At least it was a decent length sleep, more than I get in one go most nights

@TAB often the kids shows are better to watch than the ones for adults. Some days it is good to just be a kid and let the adulting wait

And B asked permission to take a picturee of the list I made to go in the front of my medical book on how to help me and if she could share it with others. Of course I let her. And she had taken a pic I drew to have it looked at by someone else. @TAB
