 Welcome to the new look forum, will have to have a nosey about now.

Still only got 1 NSD, worst start ever to a month.  Spent on hair yesterday, night out and popped in Aldee few things I needed.

Today popped into HB for work but ended up buying few things for myself.

Had the very dashing 33 yr old roofer turn up yesterday given me a quote to get some work done, reasonable but think the water dripping down maybe due to overflow pipe, having a tv aerial lead in it, and cold water tank having valve problems. The tv aerial in the overflow pipe lead into the cold water tank, I discovered this when I moved in, but besides removing from the tank I didn't do much else. Now it is finding a way to escape. Probably get the cutie back to clear my gutters and put a new bracket anyway at end guttering. So worth it, just to hold the ladder hehe.

Anyway this year is just spend spend so far, one more bill won't make much difference. Plumber coming Monday .

Grateful for

Night out, food, wine, friend.

I don't know what they've done but I can now post on my Ipad and laptop but still not my Iphone. Still being able to post on the Ipad now is an improvement.
NSD No 4 today. Bit confused as to where I am now. I'll have to try and find my last post.

I'm here (just had an extra sleep (was 4 hours plus.

Safely installed at mum's bungalow. Spent the first evening in my room (so I don't pass anything on) but mum asked if I wanted to come out and watch a tv when she was going to bed. This life was on (director has died so it's a tribute) so watched some of that.

Took mum to her appointment yesterday morning. Leg looks worse but is getting better (look is part of the process). Still need to find out who prescribed iron tablets for mum (possible contraindication with existing medicine. Mum had said I could be dropped off at home after the appointment but I've not brought 2 suitcases and umpteen bags to go straight back home. She agreed I get a better quality of rest here.

Went back into quarantine for the rest of the day (cleaner was here too) but was invited out in the evening to make up a fourth at ludo (does that count as a date). Watched death in Paradise with mum then she went to bed and I watched This Life. I have brought some paperwork to do but it has mostly been books, puzzles and little computer games (was even struggling with that last night)

Don't feel unwell apart from the odd coughing fit, but I am sooo tired. Cleaned my mask and hose thoroughly yesterday and have been making my own meals (soup, sandwiches, yoghurt). Hairdresser wasn't expected until at least 12 so took our time getting up. Whenever I feel myself drifting I put my mask back on and carry on reading. Four hours though (I had had a shower, washed my hair, unlocked the door and gate but I never heard the hairdresser or the woman delivering the dressings).

Grateful for REST, my body must know what it needs, Bright Sunny Days (wouldn't want to go further than the bins but may wrap up warm and sit outside for a bit), my CPAP machine and you lot. Thank you for all the much needed hugs.

Now I have discovered how to edit something that I've already posted - the cog icon in the top right of the post.

But also missing the old emojis, f0xh0les - I don't understand the ones they are offering!
