Re: Supporting my wife who lives with Borderline Personality Disorder while maintaining self care.
Haha @Former-Member, I don't do man flu, I usually try an burn through it, not always the best approach but old habits die hard.
Planning some yard work on the weekend weather permitting.
Have had some mower parts bumping around in the back of the car for the last couple of weeks that I should do something about. (new blades, oil, filters etc.)

Re: Supporting my wife who lives with Borderline Personality Disorder while maintaining self care.
@Former-Member it seems people I work with are more worried about manflu than I am, had to leave work early after some rather pointed hints were dropped that I should not be there. And I thought I was feeling better today lol. I was goinb to get onto some assessment work but spent the afternoon sleeping. Hope I can now sleep tonight.

Was contemplating getting the laptop out and doing some work but brain fog is a bit heavy to be successful with that.

@Determined, very glad to hear that you're "manflu resistant", but it sounds like this one's knocking you around. Get yourself a nice hot lemon and honey drink and head to bed?

No honey for me @Smc, have had some lemsip though and that helps a bit.
Have spent most of today in front of the computer and achieved nothing.
Feeling bad as this is group work and I have not put in much of a contribution so far,

Re: Supporting my wife who lives with Borderline Personality Disorder while maintaining self care.
Hi @soul, this is where you will find the latest in my world,
Seems as though there have been more downs than ups but things are steady at the moment after a med tweak so I am most grateful for that.
Bub started kindy 2 weeks ago on the days I am ay uni to give darling a break, he seems to be loving it. Growing up too fast as they do. All three boys are doing well at the moment.

Re: Supporting my wife who lives with Borderline Personality Disorder while maintaining self care.
Glad that the kids are doing alright @Determined. Steady is better than down - not as good as up but yes - something to be thankful all the same.
I hope that up stage is soon upon you. You certainly deserve some better times.
