My focus is awful right now.

Hugs if wanted.

Thank you. What are you doing with the rest of your day?

Laundry and making my bed.

Am back from my hearing voices group. It went ok.

I'm glad it went well. What are you up to now?

Nothing much. Had my tea about to wash my dishes. Then make a start on my cleaning.

I hope the cleaning is satisfying. I've made my bed, nearly there with the laundry.

Well done with what you're both doing.

Thanks osc. It's almost the end of the day, well done!

I have nearly finished my cleaning. Just my bottom bedsheet left to do once it's dry and then my clothes have to be put away.

Well done!

Morning all.

Afternoon, Tamo. How are you? I dislike how quiet RYL has become.

I'm exhausted! I stayed up later than usual talking to my big sister last night because she came over for dinner. Today is a particularly quiet ryl day! How are you?

*waves* bad pain day for me hence not being around much. Thinking of you all.

Sorry to hear that. Look after yourself.

Did you enjoy seeing your sister despite now being exhausted? Are you able to take it easy today?

Sorry you're having a bad pain day, Jen. Sending super pain easing wishes.

Doing my best to look after myself. Currently having tea and biscuits.

Keep going. What kind of biscuits do you have and can I please have one?

Bourbon biscuits and you are welcome to share!

Oh I love them! Never get them at home but I try to sneak eat them in hospital when they put the tea and coffee out even though I don't drink tea or coffee. Are you having a fancy tea or a normal one?

Regular tea today. The bourbon's are my treat for the week. Got them in food shop on Tuesday.

Oo bourbons! I had golden crunch creams.

Ooh haven't had a golden crunch cream in ages Tamo! Remind me of the biscuit selection boxes my grandparents got in when we came to visit

There are probably some biscuits I don't like but can't think of any right now! Biscuits are just amazing.

I like all biscuits but I think the 'Nice ' biscuits that taste like coconut are my least favourite.

Do you have a favourite biscuit Lindsay?

I like the Nice biscuits. Although I like biscuits I don't often eat them because if I get a packet they will be finished quickly. I don't think I have a favourite but I do tend to go for milk chocolate digestives mostly.

I used to be that way with biscuits find it easier to take it gradually these days but not sure why.

I think my favourites are jammy dodgers. But I don't have them often as you only get 8 in a pack and I find them harder to resist than most biscuits!

Hello all. I have been busy hence why I haven't posted until now.

Hi insig, did you have a good day?

It was ok tamobhuuta.

Cool :)

In other news - my hairbrush broke.

Good morning everyone.

Morning Tamo, how are you? Plans for today to get a new hairbrush?

Morning all. Today's tasks are to have a shower.

Also don't forget that Monday is an Bank Holiday in case people are reliant on stuff as times may have changed such as opening times/bus times.

Got one coming off amazon! I'm thinking of organising my books today. How are you? Up to much?

Hi all

Hi Ahimsa how are you?

I'm okay, annoyed but okay.

How're you?

I hope you can have your shower and then do whatever you want to with your day, Dawn.

What do you mean by organising your books? Did you get an exciting hairbrush or a normal one? I prefer to get exciting hairbrushes. I have a Nightmare Before Christmas one and before that it was a gold Mickey Mouse one. I saw Duty earlier then went for my prescription and to the local shop then home, washed my hair, had lunch, cleaned my kitchen, and hoovered.

Do you want to rant, Beth? I hope you feel better soon.

Well its valid annoyance!

I'm having all the internal doors replaced, 9 of them. The joiner did 6 (and a half, one is up but needs handles) yesterday and was meant to be doing the rest today.

We organised the dates weeks ago, dates he suggested.

He said 9am today. at 8am he texted to say he has to take her daughter to a college open day so it'd be about 11. At 10:50 he said he was still there.

I'm still waiting.


How're you OSC? Sounds like you've been busy!!

That's really frustrating and not very professional. I'd be annoyed too. I hate waiting when people don't stick to agreed times. Is there anything you can do while you're waiting?

I'm just in a big mess. Still getting my housework done though! :laugh:

Well we're now almost 5 hours from when he initially said he'd be here. I can't really because I'll get started with something and he'll arrive and there will be sawdust everywhere again. I asked him at 11am for an ETA and haven't heard back.

The other things on my list, I need to go out for

Can you try getting in contact again? How are you occupying yourself? It's annoying that it's preventing you from doing stuff.

How frustrating Ahimsa.

Well done for doing housework osc.

I'm organising them by theme eg novels, carmelite, bible...
My hairbrush is boring but hopefully sturdy.

Well I'm a bit stuck in waiting mode. It's day 1 on my new meds too.

I've washed my hair and dried it, it would be done tomorrow but I'm going to a workshop for a few hours so won't be in.

Hey Tamo :) My hairbrush is also pretty boring, just a WetBrush one

Do you have a lot of books, Tamo? Mine are just in the order of when I bought them. Is your hairbrush arriving today?

Waiting mode and day 1 of new meds sound like a tough combination.

A lot of my books aren't even in my room! My room has limited book space.
