Yay! Me too! :T I'm amazed how quickly that half hour went!

Now the bathroom is done, I'm having a quick coffee before cracking open the textbooks!

Thanks for encouraging me Juliejim!

Doing nothing today.. my little limpet has infecions in both ears so is as miserable as sin.. Poor OH isn't allowed to look at her today.. so he fed her her favourite yoghurts and appears to be forgiven briefly!

I need to go order DS2 prescriptions, collect DD3'd and order DD1's... I'm sure we keep the Boots pharmacist in a job!

Just popping in before the search party comes out..lol. Can't be mithered to do anything since the sun has disappeared and I think I am having a reaction to the low dosage of my meds. Wish they would hurry up and put me on my new anti psychotics.. I only have another 3 weeks of this flat feeling..Oh joy!!! Having a hard time adjusting to my additional diagnosis of PTS and Personality Disorder. NOt too bad compared to what others are going through but is affecting my moods big time.. Good job I have my care worker coming tomorrow I can offload on her..

I did have a list but I can't even be mithered looking at it.. Main things are:

Get showered and dressed - I know I should really be up and dressed. In my defence I have been dressed every day by 8am for the past 6 days..
Lunch
Put the jean wash on
Prepare veggies for tonights tea
Make bed
Text A
Text T
Write to L
Write to N

Hugs and spoons to everyone especially Toots, LW and LL

I just wish the loft room would appear on the list sometimes as nearly everything is just decluttered to up there and it is becoming unuseable:rotfl: - its meant to be my craft haven but has turned into my room of doom:(:(:(:(

Why not do part of the loft room when there's "study" things on the list? If the loft or garage ever appears as the day's room, I'm having a day off! I'm physically unable to access our loft, and we don't have a garage! :rotfl:

Just do little bits here and there - some people carry jobs over to the next few days, but I find that a bit overwhelming so I start each day afresh with the new list that way I don't get bogged down in feeling like I've failed to achieve.

I agree - if it doesn't get done on its appointed day, leave it til next week!;) I vary whether I carry tasks over or not, depending on how rough I feel.:o

I've done the spare room already - Mr LW's working from home tomorrow, so he'll need constant cups of tea plus his main meal at midday, and when he finishes, (14:30) we have to pop into Newport Pagnell to pick up new batteries for my mobility scooter, so I shan't have time for flying as well.

I think there's just the scrubbing of the bathroom left, plus a couple of the "extras" - I'll post and delete, as usual, so that I can see without going boss-eyed.;)

Sorry haven't posted much, life and a teething baby (i think) have taken over. Doing bits where I can but tend to be going out at lunchtime as more chance of him napping then.

Also having probs with our neighbours, had to call the police last night as teenager banging to get in for an hour from 10pm, mum seemed to be in but not letting him in. Not sure whether to call social services too as it can't be right and seems to happen a lot according to the lady who runs the shop below their flat. any advice - triker or others?

soappie - asked re my job. end of contract and isn't being renewed cos of cuts. which is both good (no long commute) and bad (not much work out there, no motivation to look and dh hassling me about it).

arwenelf- hugs, think I was borderline pnd too for a while and I still find the difficult days really hard as I have no real support here . Just do what you can, one day at a time. come over to the parents thread too it's quiet at the moment but a lovely bunch of people. xx

I would hun, nothing to lose really, there should be an anti social behaviour team too via the Police, maybe speak to them. Good luck, sounds dreadful to have to put up with.:(


Dusty, loved the Daffodil principle, thank you. x

We're getting ready for a car boot this weekend, it'll be me and OH so should hopefuly get rid of some of our mass accummulated stuff, he's even sorted out his bike mags, there are hundreds...:cool:

Need to write a list and staple it to my head.

Still haven't had my car cleaned.

Got a bit of running around re work to do also and I think I'm the only person at work who hasn't taken any leave over the next few weeks...doh!
