I never get my washing dried on the same day despite having a washer/dryer combined. The washing comes out damp and hot and there is no option to just put the dryer on again. I put my clothes on a clothes horse and they are dry by the time I do the next washing.

Some of my washing is up on the bannisters and a doorway.

Good morning all.

Afternoon Tamo, how are you today?

I'm ok. Mass wasn't till 12 so had a leisurely morning. I watched doctor who while I had lunch. How are you? Up to much?

The day is going by and RYL has been extra quiet. We need people!

I went to the chemist and local shop and washed my hair and hoovered. Finished a book I was reading too. Oh and I finally tidied some of my bedroom floor which was covered in cardboard, blankets, and soft toys mostly. I sound like a teenager!

Lol, well done!

Hello all. I have been busy. I had to deal with the window people again.

How did it go?

It was ok. I only has to deal with them for 5 min.

Good morning.

Afternoon Tamo, how is your day going so far?

Been thinking of you all. Sorry not been around much.

Just ate some bourbon biscuits. Will leave a plate here for you to share

Afternoon all.

Oooh biccies *grabs some*

No need to apologise, Jen. Thanks for the biscuits!

Have you been up to anything exciting, Dawn?

Yum yum! I am ok, been to the Signed Mass. I thought about staying for a cup of tea but wasn't brave enough. How are you all?

It's ok to leave if when you don't feel up to things, Tamo. It's good that you can see when you're not up to things and not force yourself into them. Did you have some tea when you got home?

I'm tired and have a headache. Feel like I can't occupy myself. Had this month's worth full of drama this morning when my neighbour accidentally set fire to one of his bushes. No more please!

That's a big drama! Did it all get sorted safely? I had a cup of tea and watched the new casualty. I recommend TV for passing the day!

Yeah it eventually went out. Luckily it was a bush they are thinking of digging up anyway not a pretty rose bush or something. I still have the most recent Casualty to watch. Will watch it this evening. I don't like watching TV through the day.

I try to do other things but I get drawn in sometimes.

TV is a good distraction and there are some interesting shows to watch.

I've just been looking at cars online. I miss driving and want to drive again but there's no point getting one because I wouldn't go many places and I'm an anxious driver plus getting an MOT etc puts the fear in me.

I'm scared of driving too. For me there's one worry (among others) that I'll spasm and crash the car.

Morning all

Morning Tamo! How is your day shaping up?

I am heading out to the garden shortly to drink my coffee in the sunshine

That's nice. I'm ok, having a cup of tea with my dad. I'm hoping to work on a painting for fathers day.

Hi all :)
I'm terrible at randomly disappearing. Sometimes my head goes into overdrive and sometimes one of the alters takes control and we generally have a conflict of interests going on….. I hope you're all as well as you can be <3
I'll try to be more persistently present

Hi Zurg, good to see you. Sorry you've been having a rough time.

Hi Tamo.

I should be used to it by now but i still really suck at dealing with life's difficulties. I suppose all i can do is to keep trying though.
How is the weather at your end??? It's been insanely warm and humid here. Both me and the zoo are unable to deal with that!!!

Afternoon everyone.

Enjoy your coffee and sunshine, Jen.

I'll have to commission you to paint me something, Tamo! What are you going to paint for your Dad?

Hi Kat, so good to see you! Sorry you've been having a hard time. Are you doing any better now?

It's a beautiful blue sky here Zurg.

I think I'm going to do Mary and baby Jesus. I asked him who his favourite saint was and he said Santa Maria so I think an Italian theme?

Sounds interesting, Tamo. How long does it usually take you to get a painting finished?

A couple of hours every day for a few days. Got to decide on lay out, do sketches, different styles of painting, get faces right! It rarely finishes how it started out, I'm not a very consistent artist!

Well as long as you enjoy the process.

How is your day going so far?

Good thanks, how has your day been?

Morning all. How are we?

Morning Tamo.
I feel sort of bad so trying to look after myself today.
How are you???

Good idea, what do you think you'll do?

I'm good thanks. Got up at 8 to wash my hair and put meds in boxes. Going to Mass at 12.

Afternoon everyone.

Take very good care of yourself, Kat. We are here if you need to chat.

Hope you enjoy Mass, Tamo.

Well, i attempted a wee nap but all the birdies are very, very happy and very loud today so it was an impossible mission. I've mainly just been a couch potatoe so far. Going to the shop in a wee while for some minor grocery shopping. I am planning to get some cake :D
Findus is a loaf bun today. He is all puffed up on the carpet. He did get very excited a bit ago when we emptied and tidied his litter box :)

Aw what a cutie. What cake do you think you'll get? I love chocolate but it's not my favourite cake...

Hello all. I have been wild swimming today. Spent a long time in the water.

Did you have fun insig? What's the water like this time of year?

It's not too bad this time of year temperature wise. Certainly a lot warmer than January. I enjoyed myself.

Cake is very good medicine, Kat.

What is your favourite cake then, Tamo?

Are there scary little fishes in the lake where you swim, Dawn?

Yes there's fishes in the lake. I saw some dragon flies today too.

I don't think I'd like to be in the water with fish and bugs!

The fishes might nibble you!
I'm not sure what my favourite cake is. I quite like coffeecake. What do you like?

I like most cakes but maybe not coffee cake and not fruity ones except for things like fruit cheesecakes.

Cheesecake with coulis!

Morning.
