My porridge was delicious! Now resting on the sofa, drinking coffees listening to music and doing a puzzle book.

I think my hangovers were worse when I did drink because I really shouldn't have been drinking on my meds anyway :whistling:

Enjoy your visit Tamo.

I do like the quiet rumbling sound of washing machines and dryers Zurg, so while not the most exciting afternoon doing laundry might be quite peaceful.

Well done on showering Lio. Sad times that your pancake didn't work. Will you try again or did you make something else?

Well done on chores Beth

My brother has left my house!!!! I am so terrible. Just put everything back in order.

Hope you have a peaceful day, Jen.

Enjoy seeing your Mum, Tamo.

Do you have lots of laundry to do, Kat?

Well done, Beth! I hope you can get your piercing sorted tomorrow although it sounds like a lot of effort.

Are you enjoying your coffee machine, Beckie?

Oh dear, Lio! Did you make a successful pancake in the end?

Glad your porridge was good Jen!

Beth, you always get so much done. I hope you can chill too.

I hope you can rest a bit too now, Lindsay.

I had a pancake, unsure if it was successful but it tasted good. I had peanut butter and jam on it

Hey Elmer!

You say that but I really don't - that why I HAVE so much to do!

This is the first time I've done the washing up in over a week, my clean washing is still sat on the sofa from Thursday when I took it out of the dryer, I haven't vacuumed in a month, it was on the list for every day last week and didn't get done, the pictures I bought in May still haven't been put up!

Just so no one thinks I'm this super productive super person, I'm really really not!

By the Sound of it you are so busy surviving every day life, Beth so i really don't Think anyone will Think you're lazy. I would not cope with just a third of all those things you have to do. So you Seem like a superhero to me :-)

Washing machine noise is terrible!!! I flee the laundry basement as soon as i have pushed start on the machines. I hate loud noises!!!! They are so damn loud when they start slingning the clothes. How come you can make a device that makes a gunfire quiet but not a washing machine??? >:(

So busy in here today!

I don't think it's recommended to drink on ANY meds jen!
I keep being told not to on mine. #YOLO :tongue2:

Well done to everyone on their side quests!

I've just been to asda. It was surprisingly empty

Ooh did you get anything Beckie?

Nothing massively exciting!
Budget diet coke, veg for the piggos and granola yogurts!

I LOVE cheap cola!!

Tell me about the granola yoghurts please? Which ones are they, Im trying to find a good one

I prefer coke zero, but who can afford that these days??

They are activia ones!
There's a raspberry and chia seed one and a vanilla and granola one

My washing machine is quiet.

Afternoon all. I didnt have any hangover either Beckie considering the amount I drank.

I like the sound of quiet-ish washing machines and watching them do their thing.

Were there no bargains in Asda, Beckie?

That's good Dawn!

There was quite a bit in the reduced section, but nothing that really appealed to me!

L has just booked us a horse riding tour of ancient rome!
I haven't ridden in years but i used to love it and I'm so excited!

Oooh that's good Beckie.

I was excited before, now I'm extra excited!

Hell all ... I (think) I feel a little better despite a rough day and poor nights sleep and yesterday was hell but here I am and I'm also glad to be here with you and I feel (somewhat) stable - so I'll take it.

Hi all!!

I fell asleep and now I can't go for a walk because it's dark! :(

Oh no beth!
Did you have a good sleep though?

not really, I've woken up sad and overwhelmed and wishing I was "normal"

That's not good
I can relate to the wishing i was normal thing
It sucks

That sucks Beth.

I have just woken up from a nap myself. Spasms have calmed down but breathing is still playing up a bit.

Partner is just reheating some homemade Bolognese that we got out of the freezer to defrost this morning, having it with pasta and cheese.

That sounds super exciting Beckie! Let me know if you want any Rome tops by the way as I have been there twice.

Bolognase is a top tier meal!

Rome tips are appreciated! Your vienna ones were awesome!
So far we have the colesseum and forum booked, and ancient rome riding tour.
Struggling to find tickets for the sistine chapel and vatican museums. I have looked on literally every site!

I know, I just want a diagnosis, you know? Like, I know I'm going to be forever single because I don't understand relationships, those I have had have never been "good", and I completely lose interest once the dopamine has gone after a few months - and when I'm with my friends and their partner who are all married, I know thats not something I was ever meant for and I'm so isolated from it.

I also hate the thought I'm 30, I'm single, if I'm not at work I go days without a single conversation, like if I didn't have the quiz and going to get my piercing done tomorrow, I know for a fact I wouldn't have a conversation until I see my friend Thursday night. My bad days, there is no one to make food for me or a cup of tea, there's just me. I'm so lonely, but yet I don't know how to be with people?

In positive news, I got another task done, I got dressed, and I'm making Asda veggie meatballs and tomato pasta for dinner.

LR sounds like we're having similar!!!

I wish i had some advice beth
I can kind of understand, because i used to live a very similar way, and i remember how lonely it can be.

Hope you enjoy your dinner!

Don't worry Beckie, I know its hard and there is no advice to give really

How're you doing?

I'm ok thanks. Just been a chilled day.
Getting excited for rome now! We go on friday!

Oh that soon, how exciting!! (sorry I didn't see it was a new year thing)

Sorry people are struggling.

I watched Home Alone for the first time!

was it good Tamo?

I don't have the attention span for films so I don't watch them

Yep, very soon now!
Hopefully me and L don't decide we actually hate each other after the 4 days XD

Home alone is decent!

I don't have the attention span for films either. Or tv shows. Not without doing multiple things at the same time XD

It was fun, and not too long.

Thank you, tomo; and home alone is awesome.

has to be something I've already watched to keep my short attention span. I know that all too well.

I'm glad the Spasms (at least) have let up but sorry your still having breathing issues; LR

Morning everyone!

Morning all.

How's everyone?

I have a day of cleaning ahead of me, yay...

Morning np!
I'm ok thanks!
You?

Oh no! That is not a fun way to spend the day!

I'm ok ish. A bit tearful and tired but ok.

I've got to get the house ready for my sister coming to stay for a few days. But I've got all day and tomorrow morning and the house isn't the pigsty it usually is so it won't be too bad.

Up to anything today?

Hopefully the day will improve as it goes on

That's not too bad, you can split it up a bit if need be!

Not really. Me and L are gonna go to tesco to get some euros, that's about it!
Might pop to aldi for more fake coke.

Yeah I'm just gonna take my time.

Picking up currency is always a bit exciting though. =)

My asthma has been pretty bad recently Maii so it's kind of normal. But thanks for your kind words.

Morning Beckie and NP!

I have been awake for nearly an hour but not made it out of bed yet. Just about to try and sort breakfast and things.

It is pretty exciting tbh!

Morning jen!

Good luck with making breakfast etc!

What's for breakfast, Jen?

I had weetabix with warm milk and banana. Been a very slow morning for me so far, just done meds and about to make coffee.

It's proper blusterous down here in the South West this morning

Nice breakfast!

Pretty windy here too. Was chucking it down this morning too!
Just been to aldi. It was dead!
All the salad and herbs were 30% off, so stocked up for the piggos!

I think the wind's going to get worse here this afternoon =/

I have cleaned the sofa! Now time for some dusting... =P

Oh dear!
Luckily, i don't have to go out again after tesco. And I'm being driven there so won't be too bad.

Well done np!

If I decide to go out (also to Tesco) I'll be in a car too.

Tesco ftw!
I don't usually go to tesco, there isn't one near me, but i vibe with tesco more than other supermarkets!
Potentially nostalgia for being a drunk 15 year old and going to the 24 hour tesco to ride the skateboards in the aisles. They must have loved us rocking up at 3am XD

Morning everyone.

Good luck with your cleaning, NP. Do you listen to music to make it a bit less dull?

Sounds like you've been doing a tour of all the supermarkets recently, Beckie!

Hope you can have a nice day, Jen. It's really stormy here too.
