Its a massive relief! Poor girl has got the need for 'nesting' and doesnt currently have her own nest.
Pretty well, thanks Squizz. BP is down from 150/102 to 140ish/89 over 3 weeks and is only going to go down! I have had several weeks sitting around and oing 'light duties' so it was no surprise...glad of the kick up the jacksie actually.

Snaggles.......did you get your wipers yet?
They arrived this morning (or rather Wednesday but have been at sorting office since then) - but one is broken, so need to ask for a replacement. They are fab though, thanks for the tip. Have discovered windscreen wiper has 'jumped off its spindle' according to the man at the garage though, so still had to leave it there for repairs (cheekily asked him to put my indicator bulb in too, as I still haven't worked out how to do it). Windscreen being fixed on Monday...I live in hope of having a fully functional car by the middle of next week....
Hope you enjoyed your walk and good news about the house. :T"I wasn't wrong, I just wasn't right enough.":smileyhea97800072589250 -

Snaggs~Maybe you should make the effort & go.
I probably should - I felt exactly like this before my first date with Voldemort, and ended up having a lovely time, although in hindsight, still wish I hadn't gone!
Just feel like smiling and talking are a huge effort at the moment.

Good stuff
Snags, if you can drag yourself out it might turn out to be a good evening, you never know. Sure he won't mind if you explain you're feeling a bit rubbish.

I know the feeling about talking & smilling.
I feel Im getting to anti social & my whole focus is reducing debt.
