Living Large, on a Small Income, by the Sea.

Thanks @beanielou and @jwil

Batteries for the scales found. I put the new battery in the scales...Since saying I intend to lose weight a few weeks ago I have added 3.1 pounds! From now on every Monday will be reporting on my weight. 

I found random bits of g... two odd earrings and a ring without a stone. Tried 2 shops and they were consistent. One 102 one 100. I have a few other bits to find hoping to reach 135...

I tried to get some supplements in SD but they were sold out. Should be back in tomorrow so will walk into town in the morning.

I discovered our local chain of cinema has a cheap movie day weekly. Not as good for films as my independent but still good to know. 

I wore very very light make-up, plus earrings. Attention to hair and nails. I definitely felt better for it 

I made soup. I had 2 fillets of bream that were going to go off so they were fried and eaten too.

A huge family upset I can't go into here. My instinct is to jump in and help, but I don't always act in my own best interests, so I am weighing it up before I act.

A new Tai Chi class this week

I still need to change my energy DD and check I am on the best tariff

I slept ok and joints are ok too.

A walk into town but took the bus back.

Welcome to the week

Getting the odds and ends of G sold to pay for the dressing gown is a great idea.
I love a nice dressing gown, makes you feel like a lady of the manor before you, or even if you can't be bothered to, wash and dress!

Sorry to hear about the family upset. Really sensible to wait for things to settle a bit before getting involved beyond sympathies though.
Respectfully, some members of your family have previously rather presented things in different ways in the hope it'll part you with your purse or boundaries, so hopefully this will turn out to be a situation in which neither occurs.
Hugs all the same for a stressful situation

Some areas provide Falling classes, it might be worth looking online or contacting your GP to see if anything similar is accessible. Strengthening is brilliant but bodies are gonna body, learning how to fall more safely if you do, could be useful in time.

Though me and Mr PIP went through a week last month where everything seemed to be spilled or banged into or just weird, like I would pour some wine and maybe I'd misjudged the velocity angle, fair enough, there might be a drop of spillage, but the drops would land in a completely nonsense place like the liquid had gone up and leapt. We ended up having to blame it on the poles shifting or somesuch 😁
I expect your home is having an electromagnetic doodah passing through, is my scientific opinion 👍

Probably best to wait awhile before you offer help with the family situation. It will give you time to assess things and think about what you can do realistically. Hope whatever it is can be resolved fairly swiftly.

Sorry to hear about the family upset - yes, best to wait and assess as @PenniesIntoPounds and @Sun_Addict have commented. 

Make-up and nice clothes/costume jewellery also make me feel better when I go out....
