How is your day going?

Oh yeah I totally understand that @rubin16
I am quite self conscious for different reasons and that's one of the reasons I can't go swimming. Like you if I had a private pool I would be OK… I know you can have adaptations done in your house if you are disabled but I don't know if a swimming pool would count??? 😂
I actually remember a news article from like 10 years ago about a young lady who had a stoma, she was an otherwise normal looking person. I think she was a bit of an exhibitionist to be honest because the article was about how she would go to the beach and sit there in her bikini and stuff. But I think the point of it was about how very few people actually cared and she was able to go to the beach like anyone else. I think it shows that most of the self-consciousness is in your own mind if that makes sense???

Yeah I totally get that. Like me myself I build it up in my head to be this horrible thing that everyone is grossed out on. But in reality every relationship I have had, and friends I have told haven't cared to be honest. I think its my own self pride in a way that stops me. I also have very very bad RSD so maybe that is another reason why as well.

I do all my shopping online. An absolute godsend for me ( housebound). But doing my Tesco order and I'd love to know why the news keeps saying prices are going down. I've certainly not noticed it, anything but.
Other than that, still fixated on the visiting rabbit. Apparently it's now half mine😁. It really belongs to my neighbour but spends a lot of time on my garden. This morning I went to put a couple of hand towels on the line. You've got to admire my optimism😄.
And there's the rabbit, pottering about at the bottom of the step. I tickled his little head and gave him a talking to about what greyhounds do to rabbits if they get chance! My dog is officially geriatric but I did think she was alert this morning. Now I know why! Rabbit tends to stay at the top of the garden, when my dog goes out the back she's on a long lead at the bottom. I knew I shouldn't have given him that chocolate digestive! Don't know if he was hoping for another one!

Hi everyone
@rubin16 sorry you are poorly. Hope that you feel better soon
@Grinchy lovely to hear from you too and you are having such a tough time with seizures. Really hope they do one and give you a rest for a while
@teigr thanks for the laughs 😃
@Ada lovely to see you on chum.
I got my new motability car today. I was having coniptions as I haven't driven an automatic in years. Why did I get in a state? The car is so smooth and easy to drive. It's going to really help cut my back pain and sciatica. It will be interesting to see the fuel consumption as its a petrol electric hybrid!
