Sounds a very nasty experience Genn....hugs.
Let's pray today is a much better day.
Do take it slow, Genn...
Easy to see the smallest of stumbles while disoriented ending badly
Best wishes for a speedy recovery

From the effects of the Covid jab, I got worse as the day progressed yesterday.
I got sleepier and sleepier. It began to get frightening. And a weird thing. Time stretched. Each time I looked at the time, only a few minutes had passed, but it felt like it was an eternity since I last looked at the time. Each time I fell asleep, it felt as though I had slept a long sleep, but I had only been asleep a few minutes.
There was no beginning nor end of time yesterday. It was just a huge void. With no constraints of knowing the time of day. The actual figures on the digital clock meant nothing to me. They were numbers with no meaning. I didn't have the capability of of putting even one thought in my mind, let alone two thoughts to be able to do something.
There was no past, nor present, nor future yesterday. I remembered nothing of the past. It was just this present moment, which had no meaning to me, played for infinity. Normally my mind is going all the time playing flashbacks of the past, and ideas of paintings, and my mind plays little 'videos' of stuff I did with J, and more. This is every day, all the time. My mind never stops.
This morning, I have woken up and it is like a switch has been flicked. I think I am on the way back to normal. I shall find out as the day progresses.
Thinking about yesterday scares me. Also I am not sure if I took my tablets, or fed the cats, or fed myself.
So, no work done on the trail cams, nor videos posted. Can't do a drawing or painting yet this morning. But I can point and shoot at that lone sunflower. Creative is a photograph of the sunflower.
A cuppa tea now...and my tablets...

A difficult road for your sister, @dunelmGood morning everyone on a rather damp squib of a start to the day here in the dark and dangerous north. I have finished my virtual walking tour of the Amalfi Coast so just sitting about, enjoying the view and sipping wine until my sister catches up. What next we wonder. She had the results of her latest PET scan yesterday - somewhat mixed; a number of the tumors have reduced and one has gone but a new one has popped up in her colon. So, six more sessions of chemo. She is viewing this as extension rather than cure. I will see her again in November when I go back to France. Meantime we may walk the Cotswolds or even climb Everest.
Art bit - what! More stairs? I hope that you all have a most wonderful day and if it rains, that’s the car washed and the garden watered so put on your welly boots and splash in the puddles. Best get the koffy on.

Thank you @lindisfel ...and best wishes for your jab.Hope you soon feel better gennepher.
I have mine on 8th October.
Best wishes.

Glad the operation was a success @lindisfelI saw my eye specialist this am. The eye capsule is rather opaque but the operation was a success. Have to wait three months for the eye to stabilise then I have Laser surgery on the lens capsule.
Can't rush these things, it's unfortunate the first eye surgery was botched at Preston last year.
Going to have to get used to monocular driving by very short runs to garage shop 2 miles away

Thank you @ianpspursHello from what is certainly a season of mists and mellow fruitfulness here in Sufflok. Our two patio apple trees, which are actually in pots around "the lawn", are ripe and ready. @gennepher hug for the disorientation yesterday and thanks for the wonderful sunflower. We didn't grow one this year. Do take it easy today as @jjraak suggested. @dunelm more mixed news about your sister hence the hug but thanks for the new art. @Annb I hope your jab goes smoothly and doesn't produce worrying after effects. If the COVID jab is the bivalent one alongside the flu jab that is a large visitor to one's system. @lindisfel good news that the latest operation promises to do the original job and sensible to limit the distance you drive. Take care everyone and plan before making major changes. What's the acronym PPPPPP? Not sure one can do anything about oncoming tractors uncontrolled by drug fueled youths though.
Thank you @Annb . All the best with your jab(s) today.9.5 at 3.30 this morning.
Just on my 2nd cup of tea and thinking about breakfast and wondering whether my jab today will be a single one or double. There is a phone number from which I could get more information; it says so on the back of the letter. But it was discontinued in May. Helpful.
Hug for your sister's disappointing news, @dunelm and a thumbs up for the beginnings of the new steps. Watching with interest.
Enjoy that unsupervision @alf_JosiahGood Morening Ladies and Gentlemen and all those who tip toed through the tulips wearing hobnailed pompom adorned booties.

An unsurprisingly 7.5 this morning
.
@gennepher and @lindisfel best wishes to you both with your struggle’s.
I am unsupervised this morning and want to make the most of this opportunity bye bye.
What a horrendous reaction to the jab(s). Maybe your mind needed some down time though and with any luck you'll be refreshed even though the experience was horrible.Fbg 8.1

Well that wasn’t good - time only moves on quickly when you are enjoying yourself but good to read that you are probably on the mend. Smashing sunflower.Fbg 8.1

Thanks @jjraak - this treatment does knock one for six.A difficult road for your sister, @dunelm
Also a hard one for you, a time when we can only stand & watch those we love struggle .
Does sound very positive in the reduction & that one disappeared. But the step back of on re-appearing will be a knock, sadly.
Best wishes for her chemo.
Sister had sessions many years ago, knocked her for six after.
Hope advances means it's more balanced & less upsetting to the body.
Thank you @gennepherHugs for and to your sister @dunelm
I hope she gets the best possible outcome.
Art bit...more stairs! Keep them coming!!!
Enjoy that coffee!
Thanks @ianpspurs - on the double jab front I wonder if it’s the Moderna one causing issues - the person who jabbed me did warn me about missing a day out of my life.Hello from what is certainly a season of mists and mellow fruitfulness here in Sufflok.

We only had the one jab, Moderna two in one. First time we had Moderna and first time either of us had any after effects. Impossible to say if it was the Moderna or two variant effect.on the double jab front I wonder if it’s the Moderna one causing issues - the person who jabbed me did warn me about missing a day out of my life.
Neil and I both had the Moderna one along with the flu jab this morning. We'll see how it goes, but so far, not even a sore arm.Thanks @ianpspurs - on the double jab front I wonder if it’s the Moderna one causing issues - the person who jabbed me did warn me about missing a day out of my life.
I wouldn't call that down time... @AnnbWhat a horrendous reaction to the jab(s). Maybe your mind needed some down time though and with any luck you'll be refreshed even though the experience was horrible.
The nurse doing my double jab this morning warned that I might feel as though I have flu for a day or so, but what you had wasn't like any flu I've heard of.
