Ramblings Of A StressedMum – 14/10/2026

Today is Blogtober 2026 Day 14. As we are at Wednesday I have gone off topic to bring you my weekly round up post Ramblings Of A StressedMum – 14/10/2026.

My Week

This Week

Health

We are still suffering with the end of this virus. I ended up taking my parents to the Drs last week as they were both really ill and their age was worrying me. They are on antibiotics now. I am mostly ok apart from the cough now which is getting on my nerves.

Also, I lost it with my Dad the other day, as he seems to be in a rut . Which is not helping get his health back. I asked him yesterday if he is struggling eating as he takes forever. He said no, so I asked if he is struggling swallowing and he said yes. Honestly, if you do not ask the exact question he will not answer. So I have to now try and work around the hospital to speak to someone.

A Week In The Life Of Biscuit

Biscuit 18 weeks
  • Wednesday – I got up and was all happy – until I was thrown in the garden and there was wet stuff and I is not happy. I am a sensitive sosij who does not like cold and wet. Now my human mum has got some coats for me but I did not want them on. To save her the bother I did my business twice in the house – win for me as I did not get wet. I am now re-thinking if this was a win or not
  • Thursday – A much better day as there was no wet stuff, which meant it was safe to go in the garden. It was a good day of playing and taking my human mum for a walk as she needs to go out once a day
  • Friday – It was a lovely morning and then the afternoon came and I was abandoned – they even took Grandad out so it was just me and my big brother Bear. I was so happy to see my mum come home.
  • Saturday – My mum went out again but this time left me and Bear in charge of Grandad. We kept him safe and protected. Also a package arrived and it turns out it is a new car seat for me. I hurt myself in my other one. It is very comfy even if I do try to sit next to it
  • Sunday – Everyone was not feeling great. My mum had no energy so I let her off a walk today. I kept a very close eye on my Mum not even letting her go to the bathroom on her own. I is a caring sosij
  • Monday – They tried to trick me they think I am a silly sosij but I am a clever boy. I went out playing in the garden during the morning. Then after lunch I wanted to go out and the ground was wet, there had been wet stuff coming out the sky. My mum stood out there trying to get me out there so I turned around. Then she tricked me again – I know call sosij protection. If we go out for a walk she puts my harness on. Today she puts a warm coat on so I was all snuggly. I thought we were going for a walk in the car. Oh no this coat has a harness attached and she made me walk on the wet ground. I am not a happy sosij today.
  • Tuesday – I was a big brave sosij in the morning, I went outside and it was wet on the ground (no horrible wet stuff coming from the sky). I did have a fleece on to keep me warm. Then my mum took it off me as said I do not need it all the time and then expected me to go out in the wet again. I refused until my big brother Bear went outside so he could protect me.

  1. I have also had a lingering cough for weeks now, nothing terrible but just very annoying. I really all hope that everybody is feeling better soon. Enjoy the rest of your week.

  2. Understandably, you lost your patience with your Dad the other day, but you’re ultimately doing what is best for him and helping him. Thank you for sharing this run down of your past week!

  3. I hope everyone start to feel better soon. It’s frustrating when a virus keeps lingering and you want to feel like yourself again. Hopefully the coming week will bring some relief!
