Have you heard from Beanie, quite a few of us are getting concerned that we've not heard from her for a few days?
I’ve seen her on FB so no need to worry."Start every day off with a smile and get it over with" - W. C. Field.0 -
Odd sort of day.
Wanted to get a lot done but it just felt pointless - well more that I was so tired and have done it so often before.
Made tiny progress but it will have to do, I can't work miracles regarding the house when ultimately Mum isn't that bothered. She hates change more than me! and she does keep reminding me I need a holiday. And is right- I was exhausted a week ago.
I have signed up for a lot of savings challenges. Although I have been out of debt for a while now there has been no real sense of urgency for me. I knew I would look after Mum whatever happens and that was fine, however now BIL is so ill and sister is now (rightly) wholly concerned with him I am more acutely aware that it starts and ends with me.
It has been so nice to hibernate here for a while. not doing anything. just planning and getting excited for the new year.
I have opened a tes*cos bank account (for the 3% interest) and will open a Post Office account for one of the challenges.
I am in
the VSP
the sealed pot
the Penny a day (PO account)
the pound a day
the Frugal challenge
the declutter challenge (3 a day)
oo and the surveys for Christmas challenge - not the name but you get the idea.
I think there are more....but I cannot remember them. I have a large snowball and don't especially care about anything
I will still save my £2 and 50ps but I am rubbish at updating threads so
will just do that.
Have to let the dogs in

I am so depressed today I think it is because my period has come and I am tired. It always puts me in such a low low mood and I think about all the negative things. I feel utterly miserable and need to be distracted. or to go to bed. I am hungry but that triggers another bout of pain.
ugh. I think bed is best.
Thank you for being here people XXXNevertheless she persisted.0 -

I so so wish that you could get to the bottom of this period malarky.
It should not be like this & your GP should be referring you to the specialists.

Take care xxx
Do you know what is funny? I only ever write about it here, one of my friends is going through the menopause and is sensitive about it all so I don't bring it up in RL or FB and don't often make the connection till afterwards or if I happen to write about it on here.
you are as ever right Beanie and I have a much better doctor now.
I ate. Scrambled eggs. am ok. need a sleep tho. head is banging.

Happy New Year to you
Sorry you're feeling rubbish Buffy. I'm feeling really tired myself today. Just try and take it easy.
You've signed up to loads of challenges!! I always sign up for them and then don't post on the thread, so I better stay away from them myself. Although I am in the surveys/Christmas one.
Take care and hope you feel better tomorrow.

Sleep and an enormous cup of tea sorted me out to an extent.
Watched Logan which was ridiculously sad. Really upset me! Just a bloody film.
I think I should go to bed.
