Pastures, I could help you with the writing it down, organising it into a coherent account, and with the printing of it, if you like.
I realise that might be worse, though, but I can if you like. :A(I just lurve spiders!)

I might microwave some chips in a bit. It's getting cold here too....
EDIT: To avoid being nagged.... I'm doing fish fingers and chips.
Does that mean that we should form a rota, so we nag you 3 times a day to eat?
"And then .... I will have to organise it all into a coherent list .... and then either go to a library to get it printed ... or write it out by hand again. "
Or email it to virtually anybody in this group. We'll print it out and post it - direct to your doctor if you like. Perhaps I shouldn't speak for others, but I'll certainly be happy to print it for you.No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -

I was going to offer the same
I'm sorry something has tipped you into taking action PN, but I'm glad you've made a start.
And that you ate! 0 -

Perhaps it would feel less overwhelming if we move the conversation to a different topic for a while, and leave PN to pick the timing of when she's ready to return to letting us know how things are going and whether any of us can help.
Hmm. Having made the suggestion, I'd better follow my own advice. What's going on in my life ATM...?
I am making plans to start cycling to work again. I did it all through the first half of last term, and then after half term when I hadn't got organised and checked my tyres etc I thought I'd just drive once. However, when I did drive, I found I could park after all, and that rather killed my motivation. I really need to get some exercise. So I am going to start next Thursday (the next time I have a late start day) and cycle for a few Thursdays, add in Tuesday, then Wednesday and finally Friday (my earliest start). I aim to be cycling every day by Easter. ("Every day" meaning "every work day" in this context. I am part time and get every Monday and every other Thursday off.)
So, NP, feel free to ask me whether I'm sticking to the plan! It might help make me do it.

Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.0 -
My wife lost her engagement ring at the cemetery yesterday. We were both really upset at the thought of losing it after nearly 40 years.
Somebody's been really honest, though, because it was handed in at the cemetery office. So, we are going there this morning to get it back.

Morning all!
How's the cycling going Lydia?Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

Wow, that's fantastic! Great news. That's worthy of a mention on the michaels thread over on DT.
You must both be so relieved.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

Lydia, I found the worst part of cycling at this time of year was how cold my hands became. I expect you are organised and have warm mitts, though. And cycling in the rain is not much fun.No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0
