The 'I need a distraction' thread.

[Sketchy]

I know what you mean. I’m easily distracted. I hope you get everything done.

[Cacoethes]

Thanks :)
Ive got other stuff to do though.
Need to shower, pack things for nanny's because I wont have time after driving lesson tomorrow and I need to cook dinner as well.
The last few days ive been complaining about time dragging and now I have too much to do XD

[Sketchy]

But at least you are busy because you have something to look forward to, like seeing your nanny. I hope you have fun.

[Cacoethes]

Good point!
Thanks :)

[Cacoethes]

Thanks :)

What are you up to this evening katy?

[Sketchy]

My upstairs neighbour is making some noise. It’s as though they are dancing or something. Very annoying!

[Cpt_Stunning]

sorry to hear that Lorraine, I've just got a loft above me, entrance hall below me.

[Sketchy]

Thanks Chris.

Lorraine that sucks hope it stops soon!

I'm watching Night at the Museum and have just done my homework-booya

[Sketchy]

They’ve finally stopped.

Yay well done on getting your homework done.

[Cpt_Stunning]

my parents want me to live in sheltered housing, is that where you are, sorry to ask, just wondered what it's like?

[Cacoethes]

That sounds annoying Lorraine!

Well done for doing your homework katy!!

Ive lived in sheltered housing before.
I dont now though.

[Sketchy]

No, I’m not in sheltered housing.

[Cpt_Stunning]

my parents control my finances because of my anxiety, & say I have enough money for my own flat in maybe sheltered housing, but I'll say no, flats are so expensive, & bills on top, plus I'll have no-one to come home to, I've friends where I am.

& I have hardly any stuff, only keep things that I really need.

Everyone always talks about progression, moving forward, improving, I'm just happy to carry on the way I'm going.

[Sketchy]

If you are happy where you are then that is fair enough. It’s good you are happy where you live.

[Cpt_Stunning]

I think it's difficult for them to understand, because neither of them lived in a shared house with other people who are basically strangers, but you get to know after a while. They got married in 1971, moved straight from living with their parents into their first house, they wanted a house for £6,250, but settled for a house which cost £6,000, because they felt they couldn't afford the extra £250, & no, I'm not joking.

[Cacoethes]

If you're happy then that should be ok.
If it ain't broke don't fix it!

[Sketchy]

Can you imagine if houses cost that now? It probably is hard for them to imagine, but it sounds like you like where you live.

I’m used to living on my own. I’ve been living on my own for ten years, but in three different flats. Been in this one the longest.

[Cacoethes]

I was talking about the whole houses costing less situation with my care coordinator today funnily enough!

Ive been living alone for 5 years now.
Been here the longest, about 3 years now.
I cant imagine living with people again!
