Post something good that happened today

[McGiver]

Didn't break anything today.

And my ex won't oppose if I want the youngest to be diagnosed.
Not that happy with surprise visits, but this brought something good.

did someone get some?

cup of coffee.

no.  cup o' cock.

No thanks. He visits to see the kids. And I'd like to keep it that way. His intentions I don't always understand. But mine are clear enough.

is he in a significant relationship at the moment?
if not then i don't understand why exes can't have simple sex with each other.

Have tried that for a while, when he still lived here. Did take away lots of the mutual tensions. But also made that he stayed and stayed and stayed. (combined with other things, way too long a story)
Was great when that stopped.
And now I have a significant relationship. It may be long distance, but, it is very significant.
And even if I wasn't involved with someone. It is very important that I maintain a distance from my ex. For my own sake. I'd get suck in into all his depressions and problems. It's a huge no go area for me.

all that makes sense.

coupled with the fact that alot of people mistake simple sex with emotional obligations.

True. And after sharing a life for over 20 years, the change that emotional obligations are still part of the routine is huge.

really?

i would have thought that the resentment would have won out and sex could be a simple act.

I actually offered to pay for a fridge/freezer today but my mum said no 

A russian bride?

No cavities at the Dentist!

And how about you?

['andersom']

Got a referral for my youngest.
Oh, and while I was at the GP, asked him to have a look at my skin too. I can't be bothered to make an appointment for myself usually. But, since I was there now, without kids, and he was much faster with deciding on a referral than the time I had booked, I asked him to have a look. And he got me a long time prescription of an ointment. Skin should be a lot better somewhere between 4 weeks and 4 months from now.

Do you have eczema, Hyke?

['andersom']

He said it most likely was rocacea. Though I've had other skin-problems in my face that are different, and they might be underlying, more flaky things. But that's not what is there now.

[Callaway]

I have rosacea too.  I used MetroLotion on my cheeks for a long time, but I never noticed it go away.  Maybe it kept it from getting redder, though.

['andersom']

Well, if it would come to just being a bit red, it's OK. I hope the infections will go. Now they are minor, like pimples, but a couple of weeks ago they were painful and purplish.
The doc did prescribe metronidazol. If it doesn't work, he'll probably try a tetracycline treatment for a couple of weeks to beat the infection. And then prescribe metronidazol as a maintanance thing.
Will see how it goes.

[Callaway]

I've never had infections like you are describing, but I hope the metronidazole takes care of it.

I have taken tetracycline for acne before and it worked well for that so it should work for you if the metronidazole doesn't.

Sex with the "ex" is never a simple act. Right , wrong or indifferent it always has fallout somewhere. Ever tried it? Would not suggest it.

Called my recruitment agency. Spoke to them about worker's comp and what I would be hitting their insurers up for they said they would likely on th ebasis of the claim payout my immediate cost pre-emptively. 

OK put in context. We are talking about $400 Australian maybe a bit more that they will get back pretty smartly once claim through.

I (fortunately or unfortunately) am pretty quick at healing and do heal quick and have taken less time off than what most people take and even if I go Physio, which I dunno that I will bother, we are talking maybe $600 max, which again they get back on the claim.
