Re: Sharing my life with Ms Sophie (Bipolar II)
Thanks @Shaz51 🙏. .. went back to doc yesterday and got different antibiotics- finally today feel like I’m improving .. sigh ... after a month of this infection urghhhh ... now just waiting to pick up Ms S from work - her third weekend of work yay ! So far so good - altho she has had constant headaches and migraine still so I think she is still needing to do more trauma therapy and take a bit more responsibility for her health and physical fitness ... all in time - for now I go with the flow !!
Hope this weekend treats you well - I’ll check in on your thread xx

Re: Sharing my life with Ms Sophie (Bipolar II)
@Former-Member, @Sophie1 , have either of you ever come across a Viola da Gamba? I've seen one (at least?) being played by a Baroque ensemble. Essentially a 7 string cello. I don't know if the picture is the same one, but the one I saw had a man's head carved into the scroll.

Re: Sharing my life with Ms Sophie (Bipolar II)
@Smc @Former-Member Wow I have never seen one of those - I had heard of 5 string cellos tho and often long for a lower string as I love the bass sounds ... but don’t quite see myself wrangling a double bass ... the viola da gamba looks beautiful .
i went back to work today and still not 100% but steroids helping me
got home and MsS has shocking light sensitive migraine - I encouraged over an hour of getting home to let me take her to gp for pain relief as she had none left and I could see she was not coping with pain at all ... so a 1.5 hr round trip later and all done ... now for bed ahhhh ...
hope you are both both well and sleep well

Re: Sharing my life with Ms Sophie (Bipolar II)
@Sophie1, I decided I'd love a viola when I got carried away by some music that I was playing an impromtu alto line for on my violin, and I tried moving over to a lower string that wasn't there. 🙂 I think I'd find it a bit challenging learning the different stance for playing a cello, plus I've got a musician's ear but not the hands to match. Short fingers... I think the viola is as much of a stretch as I can do.
Sleep well, hope Ms S is better tomorrow.
