Oh yeah, a beanie might be good! I think I've used one on occasion when it was cold enough to wear a hat to bed (wouldn't work in my non air conditioned house in the summer).
Couldn't sleep last night for some reason. Woke up super often, pretty sure i never got more than 90 minutes of sleep consecutively.
Currently torn over going to the ER or not. Still hurts, still the slightest bit swollen, and now my ear hurts on the affected side which could very much be unrelated but with my luck who fucking knows. But if I go then I need to shower first because I'm gross and I don't know if I have the spoons for that right now. Plus bright lights and noise there won't help the headache that's currently murdering me. But if I wait then I'll still have to shower tomorrow and also deal with weekday traffic instead of there being no traffic right now because it's Sunday night. Arrrrrgh.
aaaand there's currently a spider in the corner of the bathroom wrapping up something caught in its web. I don't want to shower anymore. >_>
Glad you had a good time.
Another suggestion I had for the panic feeling is to just observe it , and not try and change it. Just noticing yes, when I get nervous I feel my heart pounding, and my stomach clenches. Just noting the sensations without trying to change helps. Sounds helpful to also notice other sensations too. I also try and remind myself that people who like to do scary stuff have some of those same physical sensations, they just interpret those feelings as excitement rather than fear. Good for you for braving it and going on the water rides. A lot of people just sit and watch their kids, and miss all the fun!
30 seconds raised leg plank hold - 🐝 (each leg, so 60 seconds total - not a problem since I'm used to doing 60s elbow plank holds, stretched arm holds are far easier)
60 seconds high knees - 🐝 (stamina-based exercises are a different matter, was out of breath after this, and the last 10 seconds my knees weren't as consistently high any more)
30 leg raises - 🐝 (30 is a lot - I have a harder variation in my workout circuit, but that stops at 15)

Forgot to post here on Friday. Obviously very happy with the results.
I thought I'd seen some more muscle tone in the mirror, but with the scale not really corroborating that, I thought it might just be in my head. This drop shows that maybe it's for real... 😎
Probably not. There are mostly wolves in the area than bears. They saying is: you cannot see the wolves but they see you 😨
This is a great website for hikes in Valais:
https://www.les-bisses-du-valais.ch/en/
just select area e.g. Central Valais, select the hike e.g. Bisse de Clavau, then select Gallery. I have a sort of plan to try to complete them but I like to have no plan sometimes.
They are a japanese card set (from the time when japan was closed off and anything western was taboo). They can be used to play a game called koi-koi which i got really into playing as an alternative to patience (it can be played one handed or with multiple players). It is about building hands of cards, a little like poker, but reminds me most of mahjong as the hands all have beautiful names. Instead of 4 suits its cards are divided into seasons and months, with one set for each month. All featuring different stylised plants.
