I’ve been WFH since March and miss going into work and seeing real people. It’s great being at home and having the radio/TV on in the background but you can’t beat human contact face to face.That doesn’t sound right about the filter, surely it should be fit for purpose?I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)2

Just gone upstairs to feed the rabbits and my girl isn't eating again.
I am going to leave alone - have cleaned the litter tray and left her some herbs. I will wait and see as when I took the recycling out I heard foxes up the street so it might be that.
I could honestly cry.
I have an Easter egg (!) left and I was saving it to eat with a movie but I am so miserable I am going to eat it tonight. So There.Nevertheless she persisted.2 -
Oh dear Buffy.
Enjoy the egg. xxxI am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.

The £$%^&*(£" rabbit is eating.
She is moulting, and so when she grooms herself she eats the hair and that causes a blockage. I fed her some herbs and I think that helped move things along as she did what rabbit owners call a string of pearls!(don't ask) and seems fine now.
My boy seems to be doing ok. But he did finish madam's nuggets this morning so will have issues later....
I have done a small work out each day since Saturday except Monday, now that doesn't seem like a lot but I actually enjoyed it. Years ago I did it and liked it. So from next Monday I am going to follow her plan. She is called Leslie Sansome and is highly American, very positive and up all the time, but her work outs are very straightforward. Not easy (well the early ones are) but not complex. She had a book a 100 years ago, with a 6 week programme so I will do that from Monday.
I am also learning French on duolingo(!) It is free and will occupy me. Plus I have always wanted to learn French and have a lovely MFL department at school who would find it hilarious !
For only the second time since lock down started Dhead didn't message yesterday, I feel like a stupid stupid teenager but he has discovered canoeing (!) and I think is no longer bored, so I feel this is the beginning of end of the contact with him. he is starting his new life now lockdown has eased and although he did suggest meeting up when lockdown was over he hasn't mentioned it at all recently and has made a point of not texting when drunk and remaining very sensible. I am so sad as he was a good friend. I have (as you all know! YAWN) been preparing for this so have the garden - which needs to be done whether I like it or not, my room, have to move the animals outside, the exercise programme, going away with friends. All things that are ongoing but now need to be done so I can build for my future and me, not some abstract fantasy with a knight in shining (who I have always known wouldn't be him, still he kept me going during lockdown.
So goals till Christmas
1. Minimalism
2. Better teacher
3. Lose weight - well sort of think that isn't possible but certainly to get fitter and eat better
4. 700 pounds a month
5. Relationship (reactivated my online dating account)
6. French!
7. Nice Garden.
Probably too hot but going to give the garden a go today.
So happy the rabbit is ok.

Could heat be affecting the rabbit?

Sounds like you've got some good plans there and plenty to keep you occupied. I've been learning Spanish on Duolingo for the past 107 days and enjoying it very much so I think you'll find learning French worthwhile. I enjoy learning languages and loved French and German at school.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)2

Oh Dear God I broke the fish pond filter.
A bit of it snapped off in my hand! brittle plastic!
Was out there from 1pm till 3.30. Quite proud and don't feel tired AND have been drinking water!
Fish pond is SO neglected tho

Hi BuffyRe gluten, I recommend the Coeliac UK website, and also have a chat with your GP anyway abou the blood test. There are a small proportion of people that have inflammation but don't produce the antibody that the test looks for. But if you are ok with pasta it may be the additives to shop bought bread that don't agree with you.Rosa xxDebt free May 2016... DFW#2 in progress
