I did debate about entering but then decided against (it makes you follow both accounts and I have little interest in doing that, it's usually a sticking point for me on these sorts of things!) so I've not impacted on anyone else's chances I'm pleased to say...cheese though....droooool....🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

Terrible night's sleep, freezing and boiling and headache. Couldn't sleep for ages as was being cross about everything.

Back to bed. Half way through Sapiens, would recommend
Surely I'll be better tomorrow, surely
NSD at least. Not much consolation, I'd rather be enjoying my budget and not feeling like I'm going to fall over after a few steps. Not in a good mood!

Awww, sending sympathy PiP. It would be getting me down too, bigtime. I found it debilitating enough dealing with horrendous perimenopause monthlies without your joints condition. Hope a better day is hovering just around the corner.

Today was not the day I felt better
Slept 14 hours, could have done more.
My ear is so blocked and getting increasingly painful, and my joints just feel achy and exhausted everywhere
Sent an email to Y surveys asking if they were actually going to honour the survey if I continued since they said I hadn't qualified when I'd literally finished the entire survey a few days ago. They haven't got back to either of those emails
No comping as I'm not ever going to win anything anyway
Waiting for mum to come home with eardrops and to be in if I lose my balance showering. Which I do not have energy for but frankly I stink
Then back to bed. I am a miserable PIP today1 -
Awww, PiP....sorry that today is not the day. Do you think you could have flu? I was reading a report from a virologist yesterday & he said Covid cases are now going down, & there are now more flu cases in the UK. It does produce different symptoms from a cold, aching joints, headache & tiredness, etc, though usually a cough too. I know you have a joints condition, but I did wonder if you also sounded fluey.
I hope you manage to have your nice hot shower & that it at least helps you feel a teensy bit more human. And I'm prescribing some really decent chocolate too.
Take care now,
