such a beautiful sky .

far too hot for me but it did try to rain this morning and we had sahara sand on the shiny clean washed car.

this was my snow angel bringing me my food order. for the week . then taking me to a meeting immediately after unloading it .

He loves volunteering, and helps out where he can.

I found yesterday a struggle with breathing too and didn't manage very long without oxygen. It looks like today is going to be much the same. I'm hopeful that cooler, easier days are coming and you can get out and about again Sheila x

Thank you so annoying. Problem is I overthink and go into a Panic attack. These are scary and can last a while. Learned to control them but sometimes that goes out of the window and suffer. Trying to be Positive and get dressed today as in my PJ's not good .take care lots of love xxSheila πŸ’•βš˜

Worst kind of heat here yesterday, hot, oppressive but grey and cloudy. My levels are quite low as soon as I move but since being put on the beta blockers for the heart problems I seem to be breathing better and they do help with panic attacks. Hope you feel better quickly. x

garshe profile image
garsheβ€’ in reply toTykelady

Great news for you TK. My heart rate is up on walking. Think it is a lot to do with weather as so many having problems and dont have our illnesses . Ambulances lined up with patients with respiratory problems take care xxSheila πŸ’•βš˜

Respiratory team called. Have to stay in bed and not move around as oxygen dropping. Calling back on Monday praying I will feel much better as scary on times especially with my panic attacks. Thank you and take care lots of love xxSheila πŸ˜·πŸ’•βš˜πŸ‘

Must be wretched for you; am sorry you're like this. Wonder if you can do relaxing breathing exercises, meditation style? Forgive me if daft suggestion. Take it easy (no option, I know) and do whatever works well for you and follows your Team's advice. Sending love and best wishes. xxx🌺🌻🌼🌷

BronchyBronwenβ€’ in reply togarshe

Sounds wretched for you. Wonder if you've had any sleep, maybe from sheer exhaustion? Hope this doesn't sound too naive, but do you think you could cope with calling 111 and giving them update? Surely you can't carry on like this until you call the Resp Team on Monday? 🌹🌹xx

garshe profile image
garsheβ€’ in reply toBronchyBronwen

I have all I need at home oxygen, nebuliser, antibiotics, steroids and usual medication If I call 111 or 999 theny will send ambulance because its Respiratory

I will end up in ambulance outside A &E as there are long queues outside All our local hospitals.

I'm not moving around as advised using nebulizer every few hours and 24/7 oxygen.

Thank you for your concern you are very kind I'll try and hang on until Monday.Cooler today so easier on breathing.

Take care lots of love xxSheila πŸ—½πŸ™βš˜πŸ’•

BronchyBronwenβ€’ in reply togarshe

Really glad to hear of better breathing. Any improvement, however slight, is to be regarded as a real success, so please recognise and celebrate the slightly cooler weather! Easy for us to talk, I know. But you're obviously right re 111. Hang on in there. xx🌷🌷🌷

Thank you. Still struggling with low oxygen even with oxygen on 24/7.Roll on Monday when my Respiratory team will call.

garshe profile image
garsheβ€’ in reply toPatk1

I agree my anxiety is causing my condition to take a turn for the worse. My Panic attacks are scary and I really feel its the end of the road., struggling to catch my breath and my heart rate rising .I've always been able to control the anxiety attacks but this time they are more severe than ever.

I am the Positive one but this has dragged me down and made me depressed .

Fingers crossed ill be back up there soon and enjoying my shopping trips. πŸ™πŸ™thank you lots of love xxSheila1πŸ’•βš˜

It look like a very still day BB which doesn't help when its hot. Just checked the forecast and it looks like showers all week next week so make the most of this short lived break, think I have washed everything in the house lol . Its difficult hobbling round on my stick but coping. Feel sorry for the dogs with all that fur x

I know the heat just hangs around not moving anywhere when it's still like this ...My forecast is much the same as it is now still very warm and dry but cooler fingers crossed 🀞

A good idea to be up so early. We should copy the Spanish when it's so hot. I expect the dogs appreciate it too. xxx

I store my memories of him right where I need to and I can open my memory box in my head and close the lid when I need to .. he's on every walk with us I have his paw prints on me always ...Sadies doing just fine she's allowed off lead as of yesterday so skipped into the nearest bog she's sleeping more comfortably without the cone .... so very much mending no group walks for a while still to keep an eye on her and no heavy gun dog training as yet xx❀️❀️❀️

Yes indeed. Thanks yet again for another beautiful photo. Was dog-sitting here yesterday and waited all day for my electric fan to arrive from Amazon! Ended up cooling the dog (a Havanese) with a handheld fan and tempting him to water with treats half in half out of water bowl. He must have felt like the Sheikh of Araby by end of day!But was good opportunity to catch up on reading in the shade (what there was of it!). Stay cool everyone.

I found Tuesday hard. Was at our sons house minding the 2 boys (age 3 &2) No through air. Too hot in the back garden as no shade and plastic grass. Our own garden is like 2 different continents. Very hot on the patio and lovely shade on the grass in the afternoon oh to be by the sea on days like this. I’m also struggling a bit with coughing and headache that won’t go away Sinuses bit congested The Sahara dust is still in the air and air pollution is supposed to be bad today again - Friday

What a gorgeous photo bb. Fantastic colours you’ve captured. Wish I had your energy at the mo. Cuddles to Sadie Sunshine xx

Blackbird9 profile image
Blackbird9β€’ in reply towatergazer

Thanks my lovely... Sadie cuddles done she's 2 weeks post op today and can now be off lead and the cone of shame can go ... I took her for an hours walk this morning and she slept for 3.5 hours after she must have been so comfortable without her cone on ... the little bugger chewed up her crate bed and blankets so now she gets nothing as she was eating them 😱

Tuesday sounds awful even though you had the grandkids have them at yours next time least its your own home and you have garden shade I hate that plastic grass stuff 🀣🀣

I hope you feel better soon take care xxxx

Thanks bb. I remember when Sam ate his bedding so he had to sleep on the floor for a while. Little rascals. Aren’t they? Glad she’s recovered xx

Blackbird9β€’ in reply towatergazer

She's not having another bed she seems to sleep really well on hard cold surfaces ...my floors are tiled and she loves them even in her crate in the van she kicks them away so I'm not going to buy something she's just going to chew...its the first thing she's really damaged to be fair so I'm not fussed over it... she can be a devil but that's ok 🩷🩷🩷

Lovely photo. Too hot for dogs too. Molly gets very impatient for her walk when she has to wait for it to cool down.
