Sorry to hear you've been feeling down recently fairyclicks, try and get out and get some sunshine into you so that you can get your vitamin D up that might help a bit. I hope you are feeling more productive again soon, but you seem to be doing really well.

Hismissus, super happy that your productivity is speeding up, woop woop!

I have been stepping away as usual and trying to catch up by reading this thread's emails. I promise I will be back properly soon :-)

Thanks guys am feeling a bit better this morning, though i was supposed to be going to a course through womens aid and the anxiety was just too much so i couldn't go Its rotten wanting to do things then not being able to......but i am managing to do more at least some of the time so i just need to be patient with myself i think

Xansmum sorry to hear you have the cold again it does take time to adjust to all those new germs you will be coming into contact with - it used to happen me too when i was working in nursing homes! I would recommend taking echinacea to help boost your immune system and if you don't already arm yourself with antibac spray and use it on your hands as often as possible. There is another vitamin supplement i used now and again it was really really good but i can't remember the name of it atm - will let you know when brain defrosts

It is a huge change for you but it will all settle in a while i'm sure

Hismisses - well done on the progress you are nearly there with your list

Suzi - well done on stepping away on ur own nice to have you drop in to see us and catch up

Think i will be doing some more pottering about today - still have the headache, tho day 1 of HRT again now so hopefully that will help clear it and the droopy mood :rotfl:

Still working on my wee list.....not sure if its getting bigger or smaller :rotfl::rotfl: at least things are changing on it!

Ohhhh no I am really sorry to hear that but PLEASE don't be too harsh on yourself. Little steps and you will soon be well enough to go out and do what you want If you try to do too much then you will end up going backwards so yes be patient with yourself

I am sorry for being a lone stepper recently but I just couldn't justify the extra time. But I have been reading what you have all been up to so I am still here in spirit :rotfl:

But I should have more time now so I am back for a bit :j

Steps today are:
Call tax office
Call tesco credit-DONE
Speak to landlady about moving and rent owed-DONE
Call MIL (well she nearly is lol, did I tell you I got engaged?)-DONE
Book Ballet tickets-DONE
Do House viewings-DONE
Clear hallway and get bits ready for freecycle-DONE
Put more items on Ebay-DONE
Put more bits on freecycle

There might be more but that's all I can think of for now so I'm cracking on with those

Difficult to decide what steps to put for this weekend thanks to the lovely(!) weather! I'm not happy this evening as my OH is snowed in and we were supposed to spend the weekend together. If he doesn't make it out following the plough in the morning I intend to:
1) Buy rabbit food done I also bought a non-essential sledge! Now just need someone to go sledging with!
2) Open account at building society may have to rollie, didn't realise they closed at 12
3) Sort assessment stuff for school
4) Cut and laminate names for practicing name writing.
5) Update diary done
6) Start a jigsaw
7) Make cards
8) Take clothes to charity shop (if it's not too treacherous!)
9) Put card in recycling
10) Update handbell team scrapbook
11) Hot bath
12) Update ipod
13) Sort SkyGo account done
14) Sort out card making box
15) Finish watching Frozen Planet (seems appropriate in this weather!)

There's probably more to add but I can't think at the minute...still trying to warm through!

Stay safe in the white stuff!!

Well yesterday was a disaster - ended up staying at the school as I didn't think I would be able to make it back for lunchtime so rolling pretty much everything!! Though ebay posting can wait until monday and I'll send it all first class - not dragging Xan out in this, Wheelchair + Icy paths = probably me falling on my bum!

Thanks for the tip about the Echinecea Fairy - will pop some in my shopping! Don't beat yourself hon - look how far you have come! You'll have days when you are invincible and days when you're not focus on the good ones x
