    Hello all,



    So tonight I must:
    • drop dog off back home
    • give kitchen a good clean, brush and mop
    • clear dining table, sideboard and coffee table of all the carp piling up on them, clean off all kitty pawprints, vaccuum and wash pet fleeces
    • do the ironing
    • chat to bessie vis FB
    • sort card to post for friend's birthday on the 12th

    Everything apart from talk to bessie done. I actually got up early this morning to do the ironing! Going to visit bessie for a brew at lunchtime though, much better than FB chat :)

    Tonight, as the house is tidy, is going to be pamper night. My hands and feet are in desperate need of some TLC. Also plan to make some pasta n sauce for lunches for rest of the week as I've half a carton of passata in the fridge that needs using up.

    Take things slowly Fairy, don't go overdoing it xxx

  • Hi,

    Well, I'm back again. Life could be going better, I got back to work and everything was going great until I ran out of anti-depressants while my car was in the garage being MOTed so I couldn't get across town to get any more. Nearly a week without and the panic attacks started again and now I'm facing some kind of disciplinary action at work for not getting in touch or getting a sick note in fast enough. Probably for the best, in all honestly, I've been acting like there's never any consequences to me missing work so it's probably best for me to learn that there is before they actually go and sack me.

    The point being, I absolutely cannot stay in that job long term, it'll drive me insane. So I want to get my catalogue business running properly so I can quit my current job and work on that full time. My particular interest is the team building side of things so that's what I aim to work on. So, onwards and upwards. My list will follow in the next post.

  • List for today:

    Shower.
    Make semi-surprise cooked breakfast for OH and myself (he knows I'm doing it, he was there when I bought the food, he just doesn't know when).
    Finish letter to work.
    Find bank statement.
    Wash bedding.
    Post letter to work along with sick note.
    Go into town and find out status of CC.
    Get new Discovery card whilst in town.

    That should be enough to be getting started with.

    Lovely to see you back Kayleigh :) I know what you mean about missing your tablets leading to problems :( Its hard to get out to collect mine sometimes and then of course i get worse!! I have recently managed to get the docs to send my script to the pharmacy for collecting there which reduces the number of things i have to do to get hold of them (and therefore my anxiety too) - it might be worth finding out if your docs would send to a closer pharmacy?? Hope all goes ok with work!

    Well i had a lovely day yesterday :) I didn't get to pop in to update on here as OH phoned me first thing telling me he had a new battery for my car and was on his way to come sort it. We then spent the whole day together going out for lunch and shopping and then some internet research on antiques when we got back :) he's so lovely and funny its hard not to feel good around him!

    Today i would like to:

    contact dentist - done :)
    contact unison - done :)
    list some things on ebay - done :)
    prepare for free listing weekend
    finish tidying living room and kitchen
    go for a walk - decided to go for bike ride instead :)
    play free bingo - done :)
    one poll - done :)
    check TCB - done :)
    pay sky bill - done :)
    possibly go to car boot - decided not to today!
    do a wash - done :)

    think thats about it for now, will be delighted if i get all that sorted!! :D

    Hope you all have a great day xxx

    Morning all,

    Managed a short pamper session last night then decided to dig out an old x-stitch sampler I did donkeys ago (I'm guessing 10-15yrs ago) to make it into a pressie for bessie's daughter who's just had a baby this week. I found quite a few x-stitch kits i've finished and then never done anything so maybe I should give them all a wash and see what I can do with them all.

    So tonight's tasks are:
    • stitch baby's name and DOB (made a start this morning before work)
    • make that pasta n sauce I didn't do last night
    • make lunches for Thurs n Fri
    • check bank accounts online
