G'day folks.
Again I'm late, I need to get to bed and get some sleep. Not easy when I'm stressed. No time to greet you all, unfortunately.
Stress? It's not my sister, not much anyway. We went over to see her today and found she had been moved out of Intensive Care into the cardiac ward. She's doing amazingly well. Still on oxygen, still needing help to get out of a chair, needs help toileting etc but has a walking frame they get her using, with the oxygen bottle hanging off it. Still has drainage on her lung (still not re-inflated properly). W came with me, husband stayed out in the waiting room while difficult child 3 stayed at W's place. I trimmed J's toenails for her, W will finish the job properly for her tomorrow.
No, my stress is due to someone else I've been working with on a stage production. The woman has been increasingly erratic and difficult but I've been trying to avoid offending her, she is also a client. But I've reached the point where I have to walk away and it is going to cause trouble. It's been a difficult few months with this production despite the involvement of other saner, sensible people. I thought that sanity would prevail, but not when the ultimate control rests with someone who can do so much damage in her zeal to avoid being 'called' on her own incompetence.
There! I've got it off my chest.
Plus easy child 2/difficult child 2 is stressed to her eyeballs and beyond, she also has been involved in this stage production and the hassles have been very bad for her too. Her stress is multiple, she really needs to get back to the therapist but I don't know how hard I can push it. While she's so unstable, she is more likely to have problems and so it can escalate out of control. And she seemed to be doing so well lately...
So here I am, needing to get to bed but knowing that sleep doesn't come too easily while I worry.
At least J was looking good today. That's one reduced worry.
Enjoy your Friday, everyone.

Good Friday Morning!
