A friend of mine lost her dog yesterday and I'm worried about her. Hoping she's okay otherwise I'm fine I guess.

[–] the_itsb@hexbear.net 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

oh no! I hope she's okay too ❤️

Yeah it's heartbreaking. She wanted to be alone last night so I gave her space, just hoping she doesn't take his death too hard.

It's baen a couple weeks and my brain fog is finally lifting. I dread the upcoming season since my kid is now getting into kindergarden.

a couple weeks

💀

omg

I hope it at least diminishes somewhat in the coming days. It's hard to even arrange a to-do list! I asked my husband to bring me a sliced apple and some peanut butter, and then forgot about it in the <5 minutes that took and was genuinely surprised to see him when he came back to the room.

I've been trying to articulate the thoughts in this comment for almost 10 minutes blob-no-thoughts

It diminishes but I was still feeling it for sure.

[–] the_itsb@hexbear.net 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

thank you ❤️ I very much appreciate knowing what to expect, especially when I'm not going to like it! 😊

No problem, I was kinda scared it was gonna stay it just took half an eternity to eventually wane. But if in doubt just go to the doctor if you're able.

Kinda lumbering on. My debts are paid off now, but now my brain and body need to catch up. Work is making that a bit hard.

[–] the_itsb@hexbear.net 2 points 10 months ago
