On Saturday morning we woke up to the news my FIL had a mini stroke the night before. My husband got a pretty nasty text from his sister which he was about to retaliate to until I reminded him that she just buried her FIL three days ago. Then we have stabbings and shit going on overseas, protests here and I still had to hem pants for my daughter for school tomorrow. Although nothing really directly affected me I'm like "enough already". Hence the reason Comfortably Numb popped into my head last night.

Update: Just got good news that my FIL is being discharged from hospital in the next couple of hours.

Oh shit, hope your father in law is ok.

Yep, daylight savings is rough enough with the news and illnesses or whatever. Bit over it all myself tbh.

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah he's ok thankfully

Thinking of you and hope all turns out ok.

It’s been a tough time all round it it seems.

I'm really glad that your FIL isn't in a very serious condition. It's a lot to have gone through in this short and insane time. One foot in front of the other

That sounds like so much. I hope you get a chance to relax for a moment and that your FIL goes well.

Oh that's awful but I'm really glad he's better

Perhaps a bit of news detox is in order?

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago

Thank you. Yeah no more media news for me tonight.
