Journal – Week 42, October 2026

Another week with its ups and downs, both health wise and weather wise. Some good bits, some nights when I had some sleep. And some very short, broken, nights, when I felt rather bläh and beaten. The constant changing of the weather didn't help to much either, with the temperature and humidity swings. But, Koa and I have gotten through the week... Another week done and dusted. Onwards to the next one, where Koa will turn 8 months old. A screenshot of a 14-day weather forecast graphic for Herpen from the Dutch app Weer & Radar, recorded on October 11, 2026.The graphic displays daily temperature trends, expected sunshine, and rain chances over a two-week period running Monday through Sunday for two consecutive weeks:General Weather TrendThe first five days (Monday through Friday) feature plenty of sunshine with mild daytime temperatures climbing toward a peak of 21°C on Thursday, before cooling down.

All the help in the world 🌐

I've been asking for quite a bit of help lately. Health issues, in combination with a young pup, and no partner... It meant needing help with puppy sitting, walkies, and training. I've asked for help with my CPTSD, but those waiting lists are brutal. Plus, it already took some time to be diagnosed with it. Healthcare moves slowly, and can be quite frustrating for sure. And now, I've had to swallow some of my pride, the wee bit I still had left. I had to acknowledge that I don't have the knowledge to provide Koa with the support he really needs right now. 😔 And then, I had to go a bit further, and set up my 3rd GoFundMe. I've had one in 2024, when Arwen's bad ear infections were rather difficult to beat, and much of my funds had been used for the move. Then in 2025, after Arwen had passed away. 😭 I had some money for the cremation and urn, but I never figured there would be extra vet costs for "helping her escape from the pain" 😭. So yeah... And now, I need a trainer for Koa (and me). To guide us through the anxiety Koa is dealing with when he's left by himself. 🙏 […]
