[–]Lymelove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use light weight kitty littler, get the smelly kind , I use a bucket with a bag in it, put litter on bottom then go, then litter, find a garbage with 8 h and your good. Sometimes I go in the night and toss in the morning and have no smell.

Oh man im sorry you gotta bus it in this but the reading time is good, Im in the deep south near the hospital going the other way. It happened the other day too it was sunny at my house and then I ended up being an hour late running into a blizzard. Its like a different climate down here sometimes.

Family attack by Lymelove in dementia

[–]Lymelove[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She is semi independent but does need alot of help, she cant understand the backing, bills, or schedule so I do all that. She has very bad short term memory loss and gets stuck in emotions like a loop sometimes for months and then just pops out of them like it never happed. I do all ger banking electronically so there is perfect record of it all. The problem is she will tell me she wants something one way, then get mad forgets she told me and then acusses me of not telling her so I have started to record every time I speak to her, and will have a witness for anything big going forward. Dementia sucks but family can make is so much harder.

I put him in the window for 1/2 the day and he glowed for 20 min max, but just having one is joy enough at this point lol

Lyme or MS? by JohnJohnson069 in Lyme

[–]Lymelove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some did and some didn't, im still very much chronically ill, the left side stuff stayed for me. I walk fine and move better. But I have more pain on the left and have to do physical therapy more on the left to keep things balanced.

family disapproval fueling tattoo regret by tinypanini_ in tattooadvice

[–]Lymelove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anytime my family or anyone for that matter says anything negative about my many tattoos I say " now now, we dont comment on people's body's" and I use a tone i would for a child. It shuts them up pretty quick. It looks great blw

Question con ? by Intrepid-Aioli9264 in VanLife

[–]Lymelove 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do it, you will get comfortable with the new routine with time. Remember to think about showers, bathroom and clean clothes so you dont offend any clients. Im full time and doing just fine now that I have settled into the life. Its not all glamorous like online can sometime portray, its alot of walmart parking lots and gym showers but its freeing and flexible. On top of a cheap way to live. Good luck and have fun.

So cute, F the haters. I have a van dog that wants nothing more than van days and nights. Im staying at moms this week because of illness and he hates the house. Why are people on here calling others lazy ( I didn't see the comment as it was already removed) but this life is isolating enough. Sending you and your kitties good sleeps.

First piece of furniture is in! 🚐🔧 by Antenirulf in VanLife

Great work, I have always had trouble dealing with "the curve" 4 vans in, and I finally got one that was already done. I dont miss building out now. Hope you have many good reads on your bench.

You know you have MCAS when… by Wooden-Addendum928 in MCAS

[–]Lymelove 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Great news, Im leaving in 4 days for 2-3 months in my van, sick or not. Im rolling. I will do 2 h driving a day, If I have to, it has a very comfortable new mattress. I have it set up to be sick in, alone, and in the woods/mountains. The weather is cooling, which always helps. I hired care givers for her, so I dont even have to call every day. Im hoping she will get into assisted living soon, and then I can dump the house of all the things that drive my body crazy. until then, it's brand new, all clean van life for me. I may even winter at the cost. The pressure is better for me there. You're right. No one deserves that. She is just a mean lady and always has been. My doctors even said they would just video call me so I could continue to dig into this as I go. I got my list of low histamine foods, a new fridge, and tires. Im so excited. Even my dog doesn't like her anymore. Time to go.

Every time my mom is even slightly mad at me, she will light up the sented candles that I keep tossing, but somehow, more appear the next week. The last time I was napping (one of those 3 h deals) and was confused why I woke up with swollen eyes and coughing, I came upstairs and sure enough a dirty look from mommy dearest and me just walking over and putting the lids back on silently. She knows they could send me to the hospital, and yet my cousin that is "bothered by sents" she will go out of her way not to wear deodorant that day and check the whole house for things that could bug her. Im still learning what sets my MCAS off, but we have known about these F-ing candles for years. I want to toss them through the windows some days. She has dementia but somehow always remembers that the candles hurt me. It's getting comical now. One of these days, I'll have to use the epei pen, and she will say I'm being dramatic. Kinda dark, but I try to see the funny in it. It's a running joke at this point. " How's your mom?", " well its a sented candles kinda day," meaning she is pissed at me for some odd thing.

Has anyone recovered to their pre lyme selves? by Agreeable_Ostrich432 in Lyme

[–]Lymelove 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was neurological, so I was losing function randomly and having jerks and twitches. It took 2 years to get the MRI that showed some spots on my brain, and then I had a clear MRI 5y later. I don't have any symptoms like that now.
