Couch 192: The Rainbow Cupcake Couch

SlumberKitty · Mar 21, 2019 at 02:02 PM

Welcome to the couch, old and new! A place to hang out - sometimes you get immediate feedback, sometimes you don't.

Shouting, "Cool Whip" tends to bring others out from between the cushions if you're feeling lonely.

This is a chatty thread. All are welcome. We're kind of psychologically oriented, sometimes. We try to be supportive. At times we discuss what that means.

It’s a place to plop down on the couch when you come home from work or wherever, or wake up in the middle of the night, or check in at lunch, rant a bit or not, and be among friends.

We advise you not to drink or drug and text your therapist ("T") - we speak from experience.

Sometimes the thread moves fast and you might get overlooked; sometimes it moves slowly and all you hear are crickets. Sometimes you get hugged or thanked pages later. So if it's a bigger question, you might want to start a new thread.

Grab a cushion, a spot on the floor, or an armchair in the corner and make yourselves comfy!

I named the couch "Rainbow cupcake" because I could use something happy and sweet today.

Oh wow Slumber kitty- you really didn't have to name the thread in my honor.

Rainbow cupcakes for everyone!

It's fairly low-grade, but...also if they send her home today with a fever she won't be allowed to go in tomorrow, I think. I feel like we should keep her home today to rest. I was the one who was up with her a bunch of times at night when she was calling out...

Hm...you know, this is suddenly reminding me of my mom, who generally made me go to school and do other stuff if I was sick and didn't tend to take "not feeling well" as an excuse. Sigh.

Trust your gut instinct and let D stay home. It's awful to go in when you're not well in the first place and some of the other kids may also not have good immune systems.

I hope he can make it up to you and fit you in as soon as possible.

I'm so worn out over the events of yesterday. I was so stressed out about my kitty cat going to the vet. Now I'm practically sleeping with my eyes open. HUGS Kit

Nah, it's just a missed session. He let me know last week that he had some other thing for today. Who knows what. We have a check-in phone call scheduled for Sunday though. I just wish I didn't feel like a shaken up snow globe lately. Sigh.

How is Lemoncake doing? I haven't noticed you posting much lately.

We did, and it was definitely the right decision. She's basically been just lying around all day (watching TV, playing with Kindle Fire, etc.), which is very unlike her. H took her to the doctor's, and they said it's just viral (but not flu, likely a cold), to just give her ibuprofen (slight fever) and fluids. She may be home tomorrow, too. I think I may be getting it now, so good I opted not to shake T's hand earlier (was afraid I could be contagious).

I hope both of you feel better soon, LT!
