My journey to a debt free life

I hope you feel better soon. Tensions are high at the minute so hope you and DD are ok. It would annoy me though if someone was constantly moaning. I probably would have snapped at Boots.

Would you be able to get your prescription delivered by Boots rather than pick up? I don’t know why chemists seem to be making picking up prescriptions so stressful right now, our local pharmacy is the same. Every time I go in there to pick up Mr SA’s prescription I feel like the great unwashed 😩I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)4

Aww, feel better soon, OBL. Treat yourself kindly for a few days & do gentle stuff like chatting to the 🐔 🐔.

I hope you feel better soon OBL. This is such a stressful time for everyone at the moment and I do think that picking up prescriptions is the most stressful thing of all. I had to queue for 40 minutes to get mine the other week.Finally Debt Free After 34 Years, But Still Need to Live Frugally

She just gets really angry and I get that things are a bit weird right now but I'm constantly walking on eggshells trying not to upset her,she had had a go at me three times before I snapped but then made it to be my fault 😡Nicnak said:I hope you feel better soon.

I possibly could get it delivered SA but to be honest I will be glad of the excuse to get out of the house,I don't actually find waiting to be stressful at the moment because I know everyone is up against it so I'm cutting people lots of slack, the stress came from knowing DD was outside and would be getting annoyed at having to wait 😟Sun_Addict said:Would you be able to get your prescription delivered by Boots rather than pick up?

Thanks Foxgloves,I'm not planning on doing much at all over the next few days, I've just let the 🐓🐓out in the garden so at least they are happy 😊foxgloves said:Aww, feel better soon, OBL. Treat yourself kindly for a few days & do gentle stuff like chatting to the 🐔 🐔.

Thnaks Hairy, I don't think DD thinks that I might also be feeling a bit on edge at the moment, she has been very stressed out since this all started and tends to catastrophise everything whereas these days I'm more laid back and just going with the flow, what else can we do 😊HairyHandofDartmoor said:I hope you feel better soon OBL.

I didn't get any sewing done yesterday because I spent the day reading my book and I read the whole thing, it was a really cheesy happy ever after book and was just what I needed at this moment
DD hasn't spoken to me at all so it's been quite peaceful here ,she is still in bed but I think she was up late last night so will be late getting up
I didn't get up until late this morning, I'm not sure what time it was but it was after 10 am, I've taken B for a walk and I've let the 🐓🐓out bu haven't done anything else,I'm just having a coffee and catch up on here then I'm going to do my sewing, I haven't started a new book yet so won't get distracted
Its quite a nice sunny day here but the wind is a bit chilly so I'm not sure if I will sit outside,the blades for the strimmer arrived but I won't be doing that now until I feel betterOriginal Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,736 Owed = £10,8945 -
I know that feeling. I usually end up apologising as well xOnebrokelady said:
