Thank you for all the good wishes. Fortunately the headache and chills have departed leaving a pesky sore throat and cough ….. OH is day 6 with fatigue now only and still a positive lateral flow….

Reduce, Recycle, Rehome 

For example why have I had for over 15 years a bottle of surgical spirit in my medicine cabinet but I’ve never used in that time - Well I did on my right foot when I used to walk a lot and not use a wheelchair!

I have far too much just in case stuff …..

I hope the sore throat disappears!

I like the Three R Goals.  I think a lot of folk keep 'just in case' stuff and then find it's out of date down the line so having a good old clear out is a positive step.

Thanks @Seasidegal58 - I am from a family of #justincase unlike my OH who would be far more of a minimalist 

In todays offering is a book The Switch from the monthly charity Bookclub #Samaritans - really enjoyed it - was gripped between 4am - 6am when I seemed to be wide awake !! 

I use to keep books on the bookcase to a) prove I’ve read it and b) reread

Now a days I only keep absolute 5 star ratings this was a 4, record it on a challenge website and then if not work much with one of the second hand websites (10p!) pass on to a friend. So in my friends bag it has gone.

In other news - sore throat has abated - hoorah abs I feel more like a cold ! 

OH is still positive Day 7 ! 

Financial Review tomorrow x

Hello Dear Diary and friends

The dreaded Covid not as mild as I hoped full of cough and catarrh with bo get up and go

Sitting here with a cat on lap and having sat at my desk for an hour or so and I feel exhausted - hey ho 

however I am plodding on - and managing to tick a few things off a list.

3 Rs challenge 

Last couple of days I have put a plastic cat toy and a bedside lamp in the charity box - neither being used.

I have paid off all my income to the debt and have looked at our debt spreadsheet 

I have filed my tax return - no tax to pay ! 

I have asked for an extension on my essay excepting I’m not superwoman 

I have attended supervision for placement.

I have finished a book - 1 down on this years target ( I failed on my total last year - too challenging re the amount of study I had to do ) 

have done craft everyday for my new challenge #365daysofcraft

I have helped put all the Christmas decorations away

I have caught up on a lot of TV - so pursuing clear the backlog of recordings ! 

I am plodding with Covid into the New Year !

Evening all

I am officially feeling unbalanced a combination of not been outside from home since Christmas Eve discounting the run to the postbox on the 27th with PCRs 😷 last day isolating tomorrow… 

and being 101 days late on my period - no I’m not pregnant the delights of being peri - menopause - 25 day cycles 😳 

I am craving McD’s 

I still have a cough and catarrh haven’t done a lateral flow as I can’t bear the thought of still being positive….  

OH has decamped to the spare room and currently has both the cats as he knows I “need my space” #crankyinsominacwoman !!! 

I am catching up on diaries 

I really missed seeing the Sea at New Year 

stomping tonight rather than dancing 🤣
