    Chat bots are a total waste of time. They can’t help with anything so what’s the point of them 😠
    I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)
  • I generally find myself typing transfer to human more often than not when using a chatbot. And I generally prefer the machine option. Chatbots are generally just extended FAQs mimicking human interaction.
    Cheese rollitos for me please 
  • The Quality Street is no longer unscathed.

    Joints so achey today but have managed:
    Tidying
    Admin
    Comping

    15 minute carpet walk
    Flat clean
    Ten minute carpet walk

    Eventually arranged a repair collection with Currys.
    That's an afternoon of my life I won't be getting back. Or a future day of between 7am-7pm I expect.

    Entered some competitions, today I'm mostly looking forward to winning lovely things please

    Dinner is cheesy potatoes and baked tomatoes 
  • So tired, period started and I feel dire

    But some Monday things got dun:

    Tidying
    Admin
    Comping

    30 minute walk getting an olio book.
    Found a sweet terracotta flowerpot.
    Wanted to do more steps but body very much objected.

    Er, watered the plants and ate a pear.

    Was ashamed enough of putting 'ate a pear' on list that did some spec work and a ten minute carpet walk

    Ate all the random leftovers and snacks I could find (tidying kitchen, very productive)

    Am trying to motivate myself to do some listings. This may or may not happen

    Dinner is spaghetti with cupboard sauce (praise be) and garlic bread (healthy, has garlic on it)
  • Surprisingly I actually did the listings. Then Mr PIP got home and said one of the items had already been sold 😂
    Ah well, it's all money in the flat pot (we hope)

    No one should ever be ashamed of writing about pears. They are the chicken soup of the fruity world. Be proud of your pear! 🍐 (Oooh Matron!)
  • As long as you didn’t disturb the partridge 😂😂😂

    terrible joke I know but had to be done 
  • I am sore and ratty and tired and cried because my socks were uncomfortable. Roll on the menopause.

    Also had a little cry because I was so happy for @KajiKita 😊

    Survey
    Usuals

    25 minute walk getting shampoo from olio and dropping off a vinted sale

    Spec work
    Popped round mums to print label for ebay sale
    20 minute walk with Mr PIP to WFP

    Dinner is sainsers meal deal as I have no energy left to cook and also I feel entitled to yummy comfort

    Awww … you soppy ‘appeth, don’t cry for me! 😉😊❤️

    Hugs for the feeling sore, ratty and tired. Socks are obnoxious things that wriggle about, go thin without permission and always have the seam point in the wrong place at the toes! 

    Hoping the yummies from Sainsers was comforting.
