Just needed to be heard for a little while

WaS could make quite an alternative fashion statement in that one!

Oh now I'd rather like one of those Pyxis, it would give me an excuse to charge around waving a stick (the sword's too heavy) about at unsavoury characters

Well if you're going to have a stick, why not make a sword out of plywood?

Or cardboard and tin foil, like the rest of us..

Now I want to turn up for my appointments in full armour with a cardboard and tin foil sword. My psychiatrist would laugh, he has that kind of humour (I want a horse, too).

Aw, elsien it is tough when you become part of the system for the first time. For what it's worth I have been a series of numbers for years. The DWP can't even find me on name only, they have to have my NI number and reference codes to trace any details. As has been said do remember that they have to aim their instructions at people who will struggle to understand, everything is simplified into almost teacher-pupil rules to make sure people can grasp it. It isn't a reflection on your personally at all. Go have a warm drink and a cuddle with GitDog and remember you are just the same person you were before this. They will probably adore you because they don;t have to explain everything in the minutest detail.

I am ok but I know my anaemia isn't. I had a 13 hour sleep and am still very tired and dizzy. This TOTM is ridiculously heavy which isn't helping so I am having a splodge on the couch evening.

whitewing

not an actual splodge, I hope!

My period was lighter this time (after the coil) but is carrying on longer than 7 days.

It always amuses me that your totm is the same as mine, WaS. I've heard of them synchronising but didn't know it happened over the internet too.

Erm, I think you may mean a 'pug on the couch evening'?

Waves_and_Smiles

Hahahahaha! You are right, whitewing! I never realised that! The synchronization thing is very true. When I worked there were 8 other women and we were all the same time after a year. You can imagine the mutual suffering and whining every month.

Awww, so cute! Yes a pug on the couch evening! Sir Pugliet sits on the seat next to me actually. He might be angled towards my laptop so he doesn't get bored but of course he isn't really because that would make a deeply sad person *cough*

Have a good time, JM!

Kiwi has been super cuddly this afternoon / evening. He wanted me to stoke his head, something he on,y wants when he is really smooch,y, normally he is a chest and tummy sort of little man, especially chest, he pulleys your hand to his chest with his paw gently.

We're all on the sofa apart from big dog who is on a dog bed near us.


We had a thunderstorm that took Electricity out briefly earlier, and now I'm right in another one, WaS this is some gorgeous rain with light and sound show.

I spent the afternoon therapeutically murdering a load of overgrown shrubs in the garden. The slight downside was a car full of shrubbery with Gitdog peering through the leaves at me from the back seat as I didn't get to the tip before training classes.
I do like my garden. What is they call it when an activity makes the brain switch off from everything else, flow or something like that? Gardening is the only thing that does that for me, everything else the problems still stick their noses back in.
