Sorry to hear that Masomnia. I guess at least you have an answer to the question you were asking not so long ago.

I'm feeling very sorry for myself today. I think I've just about managed to pull myself together but I've cried at home, in the car on the way to work, and at work.

At least there is cake :bdaycake:

Cake is good. What little things can you do to help yourself later?

Was gonna ask why, but seen previous answer.
When you get home, look into a mirror & congratulate yourself on an acheivement you've made today (no matter how small). Then do it again, perhaps with a mouthful of cake.

Then treat yourself to the new James song I posted earlier.

Platonic virtual hug;)

I didn't know there was a bag. I've always just cleaned my oven shelves by soaking them in a bit of soapy water, then just rubbing them down with one of those green/sponge things. It all just drops off, but it's nice to soak them first so it does just fall away.

I've never used anything other than hot soapy water and a regular washing up sponge.

Are the house electrics fitted with a shiny, new RCD box?

My house is about twenty years old and we have been talking about switching our consumer unit for something more modern.

Worthwhile investment in safety? Any idea of approx cost? Thanks!

Quite fancy moving into a modern flat ATM. Was going to go out this afternoon but have felt too unwell. Have to go to a meeting but am going out without makeup. This is pretty much the pits as far as I am concerned, not even a swipe of mascara.

I've done absolutely nothing today. I'm supposed to be shopping, cleaning, going for a run... Just want to sit in my room and feel sorry for myself

I'm going to try and have a shower in a bit, maybe that'll perk me up a bit. Might feel more like going out if I look presentable.

Good. Have some icecream or chocolate. ( try and have veg too) And a warm bath, wash your hair well. Change your bedlinen and clean your room ( home?)

Its part of the healing process.

I have posted an update which NP's input would be hugely appreciated across the next 24 hours, if you'd be so kind & inclined.

Bath sounds a good idea And the house really does need cleaning!!

I think I'll get cracking.

I've no meaningful input, just letting you know I read this and checked.
