Jennifer is still shaking the sedation off. Yesterday was scary for her and she is still startled. She has a heavy stutter, shakes and a concern someone will pop around a corner. Her and I have grown attached. When morning rolled around she couldn’t grasp my absence. We did discuss it before I left but in her mind I was going to be back by the time she awoke. Poor girl kept crying and yelling out for me. My sub and Jordan tried to explain but that led to the misunderstanding she was being punished. Bathing Jennifer can be an uncomfortable experience. I can see why my sub sped through the process. I can also understand Jennifer perceiving that as my someone hurting her. When she felt disregarded it ignited trauma. Jennifer bruises quickly and easily. She does have new marks but none that imply foul play. We had a virtual meeting with the behavioral health team last night and I heard Jennifer’s side this morning. I agree with Jordan that the situation could have been handled differently. I stayed close on call and was not contacted until after Jennifer was sedated. The words “we tried to handle her” were used a few times and it seems those tactics led to the explosion. Patience, space and understanding might have been all the difference needed. I agree with Jordan on that part. This is difficult, because of her physical injuries I can also see the urgency to contain her. I have not seen her in anywhere near the state that was described to me. It seems Jennifer’s PTSD took hold and got to a point where sedation was the only option. I hugged her on our reunion because I couldn’t bear not to. Poor little thing has me in tears. She is complaining about intense pain in her right shoulder and neck. Pain at the back of her skull at the left base and may have sprained her right ankle. When the offices open I will schedule an exam so we can determine how aggravated her injuries are. I am off this weekend while her old boss stays over but we are going to have breakfast together. Some reassurance for both of us. Jordan will be back permanently by the end of next week. I have washed Olivia’s little weighted blanket with lavender to help Jennifer feel calm and safe. She has a few appointments. Outside of that our focus is sunshine and relaxation. I thank everyone for their continued support.

@JbeanR0212 Hi Lisa, thank you for the update. I'm sorry that your break got cut short and that Jenn wasn't comfortable with the fill-in care giver. It sounds like a difficult day for all parties.
I'm glad that Jordan is coming back, I'm sure they both will feel better then. Jenn being able to see her daughter and Jordan being close by when needed. I hope everything worked out with her place of employment, or that she can find another position locally. Hopefully none of her injuries got aggravated. Hugs to all of you.

Hey Jenn!
So happy to see you pop in here 😁 I bet you are super excited to have Jordan home! That will be awesome! I hope there are no set backs when you see the doctor. Continued prayers and much love headed your way ♥️1 -

@JbeanR0212 I'm not sure what I said that you disagreed with. 😔 Tell me who hurt you and I will come there and smack them. 🤨
I hope all went well at the doctor today. I hope you guys have good weather so you can get out and enjoy the sunshine again. 🌞💕0 -
We will share a thread so others here can speak. I must confess I missed Jennifer too. She has such a tender heart and I missed laughing at the many thoughts she shares albeit not all need to be said. She is a workout though. We needed some space and we got it. She is my friend and I won’t do that again. Jordan is taking an extended leave so that her job will be held for her while she works to negotiate a transfer. She has a friend who will help her with the move this coming week and then she will begin looking for other employment.

I read that Daffygirl! I don’t comprehend it all but I saw Jordy!!! I’m happy. You are young in that Glamour Shot. Don’t tell Lisa what I say so she will stay. You are a sexy lady.
Lisa knows Jennifer and is chuckling. You are aware and trying. That is what matters. Compliments that exclude body parts are okay.

@JbeanR0212 Are you trying to say that I'm old now? 🤨😂😂 Yes, I was young then. It was taken 30 years ago when my husband was out to sea on deployment. Gads how time flies!! I don't feel - or act - a day older. 😁 Correction, I do feel older when I get up from sitting and my knees hurt 😕.
So glad you got outside to enjoy the sun and wind. We're going to be getting 6 days of rain, the remnants of Ian. That's fine, it's nothing like what they got in Florida. I hope @Krysless2 is ok.
Lisa is one in a million. 💕0 -
Daffy you no old lissa say good no more copliting. An krysless me girl I missen her. Were she go she the best.0

@JbeanR0212 Thanks, Jen, for your support! I’m trying!
Sadly on Tuesday the archdiocese of St. Louis announced that they are closing our high school after this year. We are all devastated. I haven’t stopped crying nor have I slept since. Tuesday night was horrible with over eating and drinking, but I forced myself back on my clean regime Wednesday. I’m just so shocked, angry, confused, and devastated. But I have to be strong for the girls - my students need me to be positive and hopeful.
Sometimes I hate adulting. 😢1 -

Trying not to stress, as I think that is the cause of my gain and struggling to get back down. As the office manager at my job, my work has gotten rather stressful. Here's to finding a way to just let things roll off my back and not worry about things I can not change.1 -

@mooreshelly09 I totally understand the work stress. I expected a gain this week, but apparently grinding one's teeth burns more calories than I thought.
When you figure out how to do that please share your secret. 0 -
@JbeanR0212 yes my goal is 140. Hoping to get a bit below before vacation because I plan on eating the whole pig at the luau.
Ok...maybe half. 
I'm a morning person too!! Sadly it means that I'm fast asleep by 8:00 PM.0 -

Dont think I posted on Wed but this is the damage. Glad I daily weigh or I would spiral right now. Big picture keeping about 20 off for a good while as I ride this steady wave of up/down a couple. I also know that these dang hormones and their out of whack status dont help me easily figure out best path forward. Oct is my worst month... 7 bdays and an anniversary start my holiday season a month early.
As I come up on my year annniversary back to MFP on 10/1, I plan to do a deep dive into a year comparison to jump start my month. Curious to see what if any measurements etc change during that time.
I will regroup and need to get back on a stricter fasting pattern (been a bit lax on that) and NO night snacks (thanks hormones)
In the meantime, I may post an ad for my wacky hormones...anyone want them? Free to any home not being picky and holding out for a good one.. 😅1 -

I would've been under if I could get away from my desk for a few minutes once in awhile. For those who don't know me well or have never been in a Fitbit challenge with me, my daily goal is 12,000 and I usually make that. I typically get up once an hour and walk to the end of my street or do a lap around the building if at the office. Yesterday I got 2615 steps for the whole day. 😔 The other days this week weren't much higher. Too much sitting.0 -
