  • Have just got back from carol concert at local church, very uplifting it was. I thoroughly enjoyed a Love Actually. Am now getting ready to watch Escape to the Chateau at 9pm. I have such a rock and roll life.

    Oh I love Love Actually, seen it so many times, never get tired of it. Even got the playlist on my Spotify :)

  • Tried to get to the gym today, but there was a big traffic jam as it is a shopping place, turned round came home and walked to the local Tesco about 2 miles there and back.

    Had some help offered to me today , which I am going to take up. Have decided the ADs are not for me, I have them should I change my mind.

    Been diagnosed with UTI so have antibiotics for that. Also think I am getting a sty on my eye. Think I am generally run down, so am getting outside every day for a walk. Glad I had the chance to be in the sun in Spain.

    I am cooking. Christmas dinner for the first time in 21 years , looking forward to it.

    Just checking I have got everything I need .

  • I'm glad you took up the offer of help Sunshine. I think it's an excellent idea to get out for walks in the fresh air, it definitely keeps me healthy and is very good for coping with stress and mild depression.

    I hope you have a lovely Christmas :xmastree::xmassign: :santa2::xmassmile:rudolf:

  • Just catching up and so sorry you are having a rough time. Please take the time off work to look after yourself. Eat well and get out when you can and enjoy being with people you love.

    Wishing you a happy Christmas ( hope someone else is washing up if you are cooking!) And a much better 2020 xx
  • It does sound like you are run down. A UTI, a sty coming, all the signs that your body needs a rest. I hope you manage to get some rest over the holidays.

    I always get emotional at Carol Services. They bring out a very soppy side to me.

    Have a lovely Christmas Eve. xx
