  • Great that you've had the vaccine and no adverse reaction to it. :) I suppose not all that many people will react but it seems to be more likely among those who've already reacted to something.
    Happy new mop! :)

    My arm started to hurt a few days after I had the flu jab. I'd forgotten about the jab and couldn't think what I'd done to my arm, then I remembered. I love my spray mop it's so handy for quick clean ups. I use my steam mop about once a week now - and it's ok to use it on laminate floors. I still need a proper mop and bucket though as Mr SA spills drinks a lot as it's usually the whole cup/glass he drops the other mops can't handle that quantity of liquid. I am officially the mop lady 😆 Hope you feel better today.

    I hope your side effects go away soon, at least they tend to be very short term.

    The walk sounds lovely: it's a beautiful day here today so I hope to get some exercise in a while.

    Which steam mop do you have SA, I was going to buy one but people said you shouldn't use it on laminate flooring

    My steam mop is a Vax. Not caused any damage to my laminate floor.

    I didn't wake up until 10.30 today 🙀so didn't have time to take B through the fields. She had a short walk and then I had to go into town. I just needed to go into two shops so was only out for an hour.Town was dead which is good, the bus was empty so I had no trouble getting there and back. 
    It should have been bedroom day today on my cleaning plan but I got distracted tidying the landing and I finally got the Christmas decorations back in the loft . I'm going to do the bedrooms on Thursday now instead 
    I'm working 9-5 tomorrow so a nice short day 🎉🎉🎉 I think I must be in clinics so hopefully that will go smoothly. I'm actually looking forward to work tomorrow because I will see my best friend who I haven't seen since before Christmas, we have lots to catch up on so I hope it's not busy 😂
    I hope I can sleep tonight because I woke up a few times last night. I have always suffered with nightmares but they are usually quite spaced out nowadays, last night was a bad night for bad dreams so I kept waking up and then when I wake up I'm usually in pain so can't get back to sleep. Today I feel like I've been run over by a truck and all my joints are hurting, this is why I stay active because sitting down hurts more, if I'm busy I don't focus on it so much

    That sounds like a miserable night. I hope you sleep better this time around.

    Hope the disturbed sleep patterns improve, OBL. It becomes very tiring after a while.
