As springchicken suggested, I'm thinking of convincing him to come outside. Our building has a courtyard with a lil fountain and heaps of plants, and a hammock! So that's a great idea!
Also, I can check on the health of the goldfish in the fountain too. They're a hardy species, but idk how their health is.
lol I was suggesting it for you so you could care for yourself as well. But yeah buy another so both get one.
Maybe go out to check on the plants and fish. Outside is a great help (assuming itβs safe to do :/)
π I forget about myself heaps haha, so thank you ππΌπ
He's had a gout attack, but I reckon a lil hobble downstairs is doable lol. Either way I'll pop down and check it out now that the weather is so beautiful. The courtyard is on level one, which is actually level 3 lol, so it's high up and secluded from the general population. The only way to access it is to get through a few sets of fob doors, and I think two level 1(3? Lol) apartments have gates that can open to it. Perfect little area. π
Seriously donβt forget about yourself because invisible informal care work without your own supports and boundaries can and will fuck you up.
Ah⦠yes, physical limitations. At least one of you take a break
