yeah, my room at work is hot too. Am dying!Nevertheless she persisted.2 -
I am finding everything very difficult. The death of the Queen has unsettled me a great deal for reasons I don't really understand. I am so tired so I won't write more as I need sleep.

Maybe it’s subconsciously brought up losing someone close - your friend, your dad? I was affected at first, especially Friday morning when I arrived at work to the flag half mast and flowers on the steps. You’d have to be pretty hard hearted not to be affected in some way.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)2

Yeah I did wonder about that. I think the presence of the Queen was such a constant and such a reassurance. I have little faith in politicians and I know people will disagree but I believe that the Queen was good and took her duty seriously and was true to her beliefs. I always liked how she wouldn't be pushed into saying things for the media or just to please people. I know at times she seemed distant but since her whole life was duty and obligation why not. I really admired her. I remember what she said during covid - it has been repeated a lot but that first time it really helped me.
The week has been rough to say the least. Everyone is feeling it. So tired. Spent 45 quid in the super market. Don't know on what.

I have the monthly visitor and it has made me SO tired I slept for 4hours today. Am sad but think that is period/hormonal now looking back.
Although I know things are wrong in my life and I am really trying - but I Think I am trying at the wrong things.Nevertheless she persisted.2 -
Just venting for a minute.
Went out to say good night to the rabbits and small bun was out in the main part and fighting with the NFG. Full on proper fight
I can't see any damage.
They have fought before, which is why they are separated. However I have been letting them eat near each other and slowly opening doors for short periods of time. NFG is a pain with everyone. Small bun has made a hole in the hutch which is how she gets out. The other two aren't bothered by her really. NFB is so happy inside. Just her being a pain.
So frustrating!Nevertheless she persisted.2 -
Went back out as ever after a fight they all unsettled.
I am going to bring NFG in. Rebond with NFB and have them as house rabbits. Both are old and have dental/arthritis problems. I don't especially want indoor rabbits but this will be done more on my terms then theirs. They can retire in the warm. my rabbits can be a trio I think.Nevertheless she persisted.1 -
The &^*$£" rabbits have dug a MASSIVE hole. I think they are going down rather than out and there is a fish pond in front of them and they are going to the right but they have dug up a lot of half bricks from somewhere. I am intrigued to see if they come out anywhere. Oh and we definitely have rats. Not done any gardening for weeks and I can hear them each time I walk down the garden at night. Freaky.
I spent all day watching the funeral and am shattered. It was so long, huge admiration for the soldiers and everyone taking part. So impressive and well orchestrated.
End of an Era.
