Haha, love it when the pharmacy know you lol.

Kitten is good. It’s nice to come home and be greeted with snuggles without having to humanise and interact. Going to have a home day tomorrow until CC comes round at 4. Need to work on my ‘vision board’ she set me as homework. It’s like a board with things you’d like to do and achieve etc on it.

We're both big fans so think we'd enjoy it. =)

I like it when my pharmacist spots me walk in and gets my prescription without me having to ask for it at the counter.

Did someone say kitten?!

Not sure why it’s sideways lol. That’s him in my jumper pocket.

Love it when they're that small! So cute.

I was talking to my parents at the weekend about getting another cat and Mum told me it was a really bad idea. =(

Oh no! Why did she think it was a bad idea? How many do you have at the moment?

I only have one but he gets lonely and he did used to have companions but not any more... so I think he'd like the company. Plus I want a cute kitten.

I dunno, she didn't really give a reason. Originally I might have been moving and she thought it'd be easier to move with one cat rather than two... but I'm probaby staying put for a while now anyway. Just made me feel sad though, parents are meant to be supportive!

I get that. Maybe ask her her reasons? If you’re moving it makes sense to wait, hard as that is but if you aren’t and he’s lonely then getting one seems a great idea. Plus it’s not like it’s much extra responsibility since you already have one.

Yeah I'm sure I could easily raise another cat. I'm lucky I can pop home at lunch times. But still, it's a big decision. I'll probably keep thinking about it for ages until I decide anything.

I'm sorry that she wasn't more supportive, Person. Another cat sounds nice. :) Especially if you aren't moving soon.


Six months until I can ask my landlord about a cat... She text me saying "thank you lovely" today, so you know, I think she might like me enough... :P


Your kitten is SO cute, Emma. <3 I can see why it'd be great company. She's very lucky to have you!

I think cats are way less destructive than dogs so I don't see why your landlord wouldn't let you! Plus it sounds like you're in there already. ;-)

Thanks Aubergine! Fingers crossed your landlord says yes!

Never even met the woman and she's calling me "lovely." Oh, she'd think I was even more of a delight if she ever saw me in person. :P


Thanks Emma. :)


It's getting late. Bed by 12am. Sleep for you guys at any point soon? Has anyone seen the moon?

No actually! I’ll have a look but it’s too cold to go out looking for it lol.

I’m tired but not feeling like sleeping just yet. Think it might be a late one. One of the few reasons I miss quitiapine lol.

What’s everyone upto tomorrow?

It is cold! I saw it when leaving my dad. Very big and very bright! :) Hope you can see it from a window. :)


I'm working. Then sleeping! Then on Friday it's my sister's birthday! Her age makes me feel old, as I remember helping to feed her. :P


How about you?

Awwww, I’m like that with my sister. There’s 13 years between us and she’s just got her first car (albeit a few months before she turns 17). Made me feel very old lol.

Tomorrow I will have a bed morning, then do some tidying and hoovering before CC comes round at 4. Kitchen is actually quite clean at the moment apart from washing up lol.

What hours do you work?

I can imagine! I'm not sure where all of the years have gone!


That sounds good, especially the bed morning! I hope appointment with your CC goes well. Well done on the clean kitchen! Washing up is annoying.


I work 9am - 6pm, with a 60 minute lunch break (and additional breaks of up to 15 minutes if I need them). There's a thing in the hospital cafe tomorrow for Time to Talk day. According the the secret trust Facebook group, a few members of staff from the MH trust I'm under are going to be there, including the ward manager. I can't remember all of what they've seen me like, but I was significantly Not Good. Will just have to try extra hard to be normal at lunch time tomorrow, to show that I can actually do it!

Work hours are changing though. At the moment it's those hours every Thursday and Friday, but will be 2pm - 6pm on a Monday and Tuesday and 9am - 6pm as normal on Friday. It should suit me better. Start from the 12th, when the new employee starts.

Sounds like it will be better but change is always hard and requires mental adjustment! Hopefully will be for the best though.
