OMG @greenpea I would be so nervous too! Its incredible the courage and determination you have bearing your health issues with so much dignity. I don't know what to say except you try so hard and just keep going in the face of situations that would simply floor people. I hope you are surrounded by people who love you and have added suppports in place xxoo

Hello @Anastasia
I was actually up late last night {very early morning} and kept seeing things to do and doing new things, like responses to be offered and set-up of my new thread, called "Henry's Landing Strip and Hanger". Consequently, up later this morning. Thank you for the positive comment and post in the "Hanger" on the new thread.
The desire to get things done, like vacuuming, and other countering issues to be considered, like family still asleep, is probably understood by many here on the forum. Unfortunately, I live on my own so I do not have such a strong imperative to get things, like vacuuming, done as often as it probably should be done. 😊 Pleased that you sound as though you are feeling fresh after a reasonable sleep.
Thank you for asking if I'm ok. I am, but sometimes I forget to take medication that assists me with sleep, in addition to its primary purpose, and I then just tend to keep going until I take the med't'n. But otherwise feeling fine. You were right, I would have been asleep by the time you had messaged me.
Yes, I remember the song about the "hole in the bucket". @MDT occasionally has a play with my pseudonym by referring to me as "Henry the 10th" because of the X connected with the Roman numeral for 10.
Hope your day is pleasant and productive, Anastasia
With Best Wishes

Hello @HenryX
Thank you for your reply. I am pleased you were asleep when I replied asleep is important and definitely not overrated. I am like a bear with a sore head when sleep deprived. 😊
Haha I hear you with seeing things to do, there are never enough hours are there!?
Can you believe it's October already, a funny year of not doing much outside the house due to Covid but time just keeps marching, well sprinting along.
I am glad to hear you are ok. Remembering to take meds is tricky, I hear you.
Haha I love that, Henry 10th, @MDT has a great sense of humour ✅😃
Thank you for your well wishes for a producrive day, so far so good but I'm looking forward to when my parents arrive in around three hours. That is cause for celebration having not seen them for around three months.
Enjoy your day Henry and thank you again for your reply 😊
