  • I'm still here guys, thanks for all the messages. I've got this week off work and honestly I feel like !!!!. I'm so tired and I've not done as much as I wanted to.

    I'm going to have a lie in tomorrow and then get my act together. Another appointment at the docs on Saturday. I really need to sort this cough out.

    I've had to buy a new battery. It did start to take DD's BF home and has been ok since then up until this morning. We had a bad frost last night and I had to get it jump started again. The prices round here ranged from £50 to £68 but looked in good old eBay and got a new one for £34. That's not too bad as I've taken it out of the eBay sales money so thankfully London money still ok.

    I love that you are all getting into bullet journalling. I've found a list on line somewhere of every single thing you could add into it and more lol. Even DD is keeping hers up which I'm impressed with.

    We went to a college open evening last night and this is the one she really wants to go to and she loved it. It's my old college but a new building is there now which is amazing. We went to one closer to home last week and they made her feel like she wasn't good enough. Well the maths teacher did so I practically tore him a new one and have put a complaint in. And the one she is going to go to is free transport too so all good.

    Hope everyone is ok.

    In my case, I am regretting clicking on the US election coverage because now I want to see what happens next, despite the fact that it will change nothing about the result I wake up to later on...

    should really just go to bed!

  • Had another NSD today so that makes 3, I'm on target for the week of 4 but that's because I've not left the house and have been napping all day. Just seems such a waste of my holiday.

    There has been so much interest in the bullet journal that I am going to start a new thread for it, I'm just wondering if it will be ok to do it here in the diary section where we all are anyway. It would be so good to share how it is helping us and what collections we have in our journals and maybe inspire others to use one.

    I think to be a bit more MSE, I'm going to try and make some of my christmas cards this year. I have all the things I need just need a bit of inspiration. It's been a dangerous day as I've been watching the craft channels and I did used to spend quite a bit on the hobby but I have been so good today and just watched. I really wanted that NSD.

    Let me know your ideas on where to put the thread, would be much appreciated.

    Bullet journal thread sounds like a great idea Tink.

    Don't think of it as wasting your holiday, but giving your body what it needs xx

  • So I went to the docs yesterday and he is concerned that I still have this cough. I've got my asthma test tomorrow so he didn't want to give me anything until after that. I had a bad sleep on Friday night so I had a three hour nap yesterday afternoon. I've finally found that if I have all four of my pillows under me I can sleep better so has a good nights sleep last night. I'm sick of feeling short of breath though and just don't have much motivation.

    Thursday I did go to my mums and we sorted out the built in wardrobes in each room. DD's is now full of things to put in the loft, mums is sorted and mine is nearly done. I took a load of stuff to the charity shop for her and have another run to do this week.

    Still haven't done anymore walking with the dogs as I haven't felt up to it. Really need to start this as I want to stay at mums on Christmas Eve like we used to do.

    Less than two weeks to London now so I'm really looking forward to that and I have all her presents although Mr D found one and had a nibble at the box while I was out grrr. Serves me right for not shutting my bedroom door.

    I'm going to start the bullet journal thread this afternoon so I hope it helps some more folks.

  • Had to laugh at MR D - sorry !


    Poor you about the cough - hope that gets sorted soon, Nothing worse than running on half battery.


    Well done on the ebay Tinks it takes some sticking too and has hopefully been worth all your efforts.


    Can't wait to hear about London
