:neuro: Pixy's Journey :v_bi:<p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/Journal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Journal</span></a> of a slightly annoyed but also relieved Dutch Pixy :pixy_party: (Tuesday, 19/08/2025). </p><p>I had a little bit better night. Which was very welcome, as the previous one was a hell. Even though I slept a bit better, I also slept less. My sleep score was at 65, with actual sleep timed at 5:18. My energy score was at 77, which was quite a bit lower than the previous day. But hey ho, a new day had begun, and it was the day where I would have the hospital check-up. Would I get the thumbs up or...? Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 for a good outcome and all that... </p><p>First I prepped everything for brekky. I got to the scale and then helped mum to use the scale as well, so she could see all the stats that it could give her. She also used the pet mode to get Bas his weight. Then, we got dressed and had brekky. After brekky, I walked a bit with Basje, so he could get all the sniffs. </p><p>When we got back, mum was at the car, and we headed to Nijmegen. We took Bas to my parents house and then mum and I headed to the hospital. We found a parking spot and went to radiology for my x-rays. Then, onwards to the surgeon. The info board said that there was a delay of 20-30 minutes, so I got my headphones and wanted to watch some series, as it was still 20 minutes till the original appointment time. But after watching just a few minutes, they already called me in. Mum and I waited in a room for a bit and then we got brought to another room where the doc was waiting for us. </p><p>I am writing a longer blog post about it all that will be shared this Friday, but needless to say, I was a bit annoyed with some of the doc's reactions and remarks. 😔 He diminished the events that had happened and he never acknowledged that he may have made a mistake by not also adjusting the hips head when he changed the bowl to another sort and size... So yeah, big grumbling was happening in my brain and body... 😖 But then I finally got some good news. I am allowed to drive again, short bits at first and see how that goes. I am allowed to work on my strength again, slowly building things up with the physio. The next check-up will be in 12 months, so hopefully... 🤞🏻 All will go well till then... </p><p>As I had my crutch with me, I used it to get to the car. But when we went to the supermarket, I left it in the car and just slowly hobbled through the store. It went slow and I was a bit scared that people would bump into me and cause me to stumble, but we made it to the car again and all had gone well. Yay! 💪🏻 </p><p>We went to my parents house and when mum was done with her things, we took the groceries and Bas and headed to Skoosh. I drove Skoosh back to the house, which felt weird, as last time I drove her had been almost 10 weeks, and two surgeries, ago. But it went well and we got back home safe and sound. We cleaned up the groceries and then I wanted to relax a bit. But, as I was a tad tired, I decided to walk with Bas first and then I would have some more time to relax... </p><p>We walked a shorter round, mostly in the shade as it was 29°C at the moment, and without my crutch. It was a little challenging, but we managed to make it work. We got back and I had finally finished my journal toot. Then, I got to the bed and relaxed with some telly. I made dinner for mum and me, walked with Bas again, and then I relaxed some more in bed. I dozed off a few times while we were watching telly. Then I prepped everything for the next day, and mum walked with Bas. </p><p>Bas came to join me on the bed, but he wanted to lie against my belly and chest now. We fell asleep together and when I woke up again, it was already 4am. Bas had woken due to mum coming down for the loo, so I got up and went as well. I went back to bed and Bas decided to reclaim the spot near my chest again. I cuddled him and fell asleep again. </p><p>Bas was still snoozing there when mum called him for walkies. When they were back and mum was getting ready upstairs, I go up and prepared everything for brekky. I had a good night, finally, for once, and I was hoping that today would be a good day... </p><p>:pixy_party: 💜 🍀 🐾</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/PixysJourney" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PixysJourney</span></a><br><a href="https://beige.party/tags/WeirdFolks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WeirdFolks</span></a><br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/weirdfolks" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>weirdfolks</span></a></span></p>
