    I'm glad you had a good chat and feel a bit better now :) 
    I'm glad you feel better after seeing the doctor Beanie 🙂.
    Thank you both.
    I am trying to divert my thinking.
    That's the sort of thing I try and do from my anxiety book.  It does help!
    I will keep trying!

    Sending love Beanie. I think we have a mutual friend who had a utter nightmare with her mobility car. It is just awful service. Really glad the doctor was good and good for you going. 

     As SA said further up better days are coming right? XXXXX  
    Thanks Buffster.
    Yes, we do.
    While the mobility scheme itself is fantastic, the dire fleet insurance lets it down very badly.
    My worst experience in nearly 30 years of driving.

    PS Did you watch First Dates last night? xxx
    No? Should I ? XXX 
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    I don't watch First Dates but I watched Snackmasters with Fred this week. You can see the very obsession they bring to their restaurants!

    I'm sorry to hear they're taking so long with the car Beanie but pleased you could have a good chat with the dr. I hope the Dr recommended cake and time spent cuddling your cat - both will help.
