Morning everyone!

not_so_insig 18-04-2024 10:13 AM

Morning Beckie how are you?

tamobhuuta 18-04-2024 10:18 AM

Morning guys, how are you?

not_so_insig 18-04-2024 10:50 AM

I struggled massively trying to get my new bracelet on. It took me about half an hour to get it on. It's a Doctor Who themed one. The tardis charm keeps on going the wrong way around but I am not trying again to fasten it.

tamobhuuta 18-04-2024 11:03 AM

Sorry you're having trouble, it sounds like a cool bracelet.

My brother's all sad because he didn't get picked for his rugby team this weekend.

not_so_insig 18-04-2024 11:06 AM

How are you tamobhuuta?

tamobhuuta 18-04-2024 11:08 AM

I'm ok. Hairwash achieved, today is laundry day.

one_step_closer 18-04-2024 11:58 AM

Hi everyone.

How are you, Beckie? Have you driven solo yet?

That's a shame about your brother, Tamo. Well done for what you've achieved so far.

I always struggle to get jewellery on, Dawn.

tamobhuuta 18-04-2024 12:36 PM

Thanks osc, how are you?

Cacoethes 18-04-2024 12:44 PM

Morning guys!
I'm ok thanks

Getting bracelets on can be so frustrating!

That's a shame tamo. Maybe next time!
Well done on your things!

I've driven solo a few times now!
Drove to and from work last night, today I drove to asda, had nails done and went to aldi.
Was so nice to not have to get the train to get nails done!
So basically, I'm driving everywhere now XD

tamobhuuta 18-04-2024 02:19 PM

I thought you'd be driving everywhere possible now Cacoethes!

Cacoethes 18-04-2024 02:25 PM

Absolutely! Loving the freedom!

How are you doing this afternoon tamo?

tamobhuuta 18-04-2024 03:14 PM

I'm alright. Waiting for 2 parcels. It's lovely and sunny here so I've got washing on the line.

Cacoethes 18-04-2024 04:01 PM

Anything exciting?
It's nice here too!

tamobhuuta 18-04-2024 04:10 PM

A notebook to do my therapy in and a book called An African History of Africa.

Cacoethes 18-04-2024 04:16 PM

Love a new notebook!
The book sounds interesting!

one_step_closer 18-04-2024 04:17 PM

The freedom of driving is great. :)

It's definitely not nice here. Very cold and windy and a bit wet too.

Hope you get your parcels ok and your washing gets dried, Tamo.

Cacoethes 18-04-2024 04:23 PM

It is! :)

What are you up to lindsay?

tamobhuuta 18-04-2024 05:42 PM

All washing done and bed made :)

How are you all?

Cacoethes 18-04-2024 05:46 PM

Well done!

I have just driven to college. Very proud of myself because I didn't know the way but made it! Despite anxiety about merging onto the A1 and a particularly nasty roundabout

one_step_closer 18-04-2024 06:01 PM

You are amazing, Beckie. I probably would have been too scared to do that.

Well done, Tamo. Is that you finished your tasks for the day?

tamobhuuta 18-04-2024 06:14 PM

I'm about to do my therapy homework and water my plants, that's it.

Cacoethes 18-04-2024 09:35 PM

Thanks lindsay!
The drive back was worse because it is dark and pouring down and I didn't know where I was most of the time XD

Cacoethes 19-04-2024 06:40 AM

Morning everyone

tamobhuuta 19-04-2024 09:50 AM

Morning, how are you?

Cacoethes 19-04-2024 10:37 AM

Morning. I'm ok thanks. Tired!
How are you?

tamobhuuta 19-04-2024 10:55 AM

I'm good thanks. It's my brother's birthday today. Are you up to anything?

Cacoethes 19-04-2024 10:58 AM

Happy birthday to your brother!
Someone at work has a birthday today and someone from krav maga! The group chats have been going off all morning. Must be a popular day for birthdays!

A few things. Went to the gym, did some washing which is now drying. Need to clean out the boys and sort dosette box and go to asda and then work later.

How about you?

tamobhuuta 19-04-2024 11:13 AM

Just Mass and some exercise. And my therapy homework!

Cacoethes 19-04-2024 12:16 PM

Sounds like an ok day!

I've done all my things apart from work now.
And forgot my driving instructor is coming at around 2:45 so I can give him the interior mirror I needed to buy for the examiner. When I got him to check it was the right one, he said it was better than his so I asked if he wanted it. I have no use for it anymore!

one_step_closer 19-04-2024 12:41 PM

Hi everyone.

Will you be doing anything for your brother's birthday, Tamo?

You have done lots already, Beckie. Hope work goes well. Is it likely to not be as busy as your other shifts or just the same? I'm not understanding why you bought an interior mirror but now don't need it.

Cacoethes 19-04-2024 12:44 PM

Hey lindsay
How are you?

Work will likely be less hellish than last week because the weather is crap. Fingers crossed!

I used my own car for my test, and the examiner needs a separate interior mirror in front of them to see blind spots and everything. So I had to buy one for them to use.
Idk why they don't have their own, they use their own sat navs for tests! But oh well.

one_step_closer 19-04-2024 12:47 PM

Oh right. That sounds strange having to buy it yourself. I hope work goes well.

I'm feeling really alone.

Cacoethes 19-04-2024 12:49 PM

Yeah I thought it was a bit weird tbh!

That's an awful feeling to have :(
We're here for you! I know it's not the same as having irl people about though

tamobhuuta 19-04-2024 01:18 PM

Hugs if wanted osc.

I think we're going out on Sunday for his birthday.

not_so_insig 19-04-2024 02:23 PM

Hello all. I am kinda annoyed because I cancelled coffee with my friend because a courier was coming when I would be out. Annoyingly the courier came and it fitted through my letterbox so I could have gone for coffee.

I won't be around much today as have a busy afternoon/evening. Nothing bad is happening. Just in case people wondered where I was that's all.

Cacoethes 19-04-2024 02:35 PM

That'll be nice tamo
Doing anything or just going for a nice meal or something?

tamobhuuta 19-04-2024 02:44 PM

Enjoy your busy, non bad afternoon insig.

We're going out for a meal Cacoethes.

Cacoethes 19-04-2024 03:58 PM

Lovely :)

I was trying to nap but it wasn't happening.
So just had a lie down instead

long road 19-04-2024 03:59 PM

Hey everyone!

Sorry I haven't been around much lately. Been very spaced out.

Been reading though just not had much energy for replies.

one_step_closer 19-04-2024 04:09 PM

Lying down is ok if you can't seem to nap.

Hope you're being kind to yourself, Jen.

long road 19-04-2024 04:13 PM

Am taking it very easy. Having lots of cuddles with my new cuddly toy duck Popcorn. Things are heard at the moment.

Sending hugs to you and your loneliness Lindsay.

Cacoethes 19-04-2024 04:14 PM

I hurt my shoulder so I got up XD

Hey jen!
Hope you start to feel better soon. Sending hugs!

long road 19-04-2024 04:16 PM

Sympathy for you Beckie! Shoulder pain sucks I have an old injury on my left shoulder that acts up sometimes so I get it.

I hope so too. Been fonding things harder since Tuesday.

Cacoethes 19-04-2024 04:22 PM

Thanks! Mine is also in my left shoulder!
I can usually pop it back with no issues, but this was a bit violent!

I am glad you're managing to take things easy at least

one_step_closer 19-04-2024 04:24 PM

I need to see Popcorn! Keep going, Jen.

Ouch, Beckie. When I turn over in bed I hold my shoulders to bring them out from under my pillow because I often seem to twist/pop them.

Cacoethes 19-04-2024 04:33 PM

That sometimes works, but not always!

Cba with work tonight. But I never can ba tbh XD

long road 19-04-2024 04:51 PM

Hope pain eases off before work Beckie. You probably wrenched some muscles as it went back in.

I have sent you a FB message with a photo of Popcorn Lindsay.

Going to listen to some music now. Have roleplaying later where we are defending our ship from attack by monsters.

Cacoethes 19-04-2024 04:54 PM

Most likely. Lifting glass trays is gonna be fun tonight XD

Hope you enjoy yourself jen!

one_step_closer 19-04-2024 06:00 PM

I hope work goes quickly and not too fast paced, Beckie.

Popcorn is a cutie. Do you have lots of soft toys? I hope your ship doesn't get bashed up.
