    Hope the snow has gone - feels as if we’ve had rain for the last week - not very nice being out in it today but better than snow;)

    Evening Beanie. Hope the white stuff has melted. Are DS and GF all settled into their new accommodation and are they near enough for visits? xx

    Yay to the white stuff going and to DS being nearer - I think ;):rotfl:

    Really sorry to hear you're still struggling with the tiredness. Is it worse/lasted longer than what you've experienced before? Must be so frustrating for you. xx

    Even though you say it all feels overwhelming, you always come across as cool, calm and collected and seem to take everything in your stride. It's a great quality to have. x
  • That's great news about the loss of the white stuff and DS and GF being closer :T.

    Sorry you're still so tired though :(.

    In non MSE news I have had to order a new phone.
    My one had been iffy for a while & is now loosing power very very quickly.
    I am not going to justify it.
    I need it as I no longer make calls on my house phone.

    It’s rubbish you still feel so tired. It must be so waring. Do you sleep well at night or could you try some herbal remedies to help.
    I’m pleased ds is closer and hoping things are better between you now.
    How’s the lodger doing .
