Good good!

It is!
Used to hate getting up at stupid o clock to get to work. Had to get there an hour early because of public transport. So got there at 7am.
I'm glad in my current job, the earliest shift is 9am. And that's just for managers XD
Our earliest shift is 10:30am
Although, I'm always up at 6-7am anyway!

I'm ok thanks.
Got a house inspection at some point between 10:30 and 5 and might meet my friend this afternoon to just chill.

Are you at work all day?

tamobhuuta 15-05-2023 10:02 AM

Morning! You guys were up way too early.

Ahimsa 15-05-2023 10:08 AM

I started work at 7:30, I had to be up early!!

How’re you?

tamobhuuta 15-05-2023 10:27 AM

I'm ok. We've got our water back so I am fully hairwashed!

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 10:27 AM

It's an annoying thing my body just does now XD

Morning tamo!
Any plans for today?
Yay for water!

long road 15-05-2023 10:49 AM

Morning!

I am feeling more human than expected this morning. A bit rough around the edges but not too bad.

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 10:51 AM

Morning!
I'm glad you're feeling a bit better!
Have you got anything planned for today?

long road 15-05-2023 11:04 AM

Not really. I think partners parents are popping in this afternoon as he didn't get a chance to see them long yesterday and also to help partner out with chores a bit.

On Tuesday I have OT appointment and on Wednesday asthma Nurse so taking advantage of a lazy morning today.

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 11:08 AM

Hopefully it'll be a nice visit!

Ah yes. Definitely enjoy a lazy morning!

I'm considering painting the living room (not soon, because i don't have paint or money!) And I'm gonna check with letting agent, even though I'll be painting the same colour. There's just a lot of marks on the wall that have been there forever but are suddenly annoying me XD
I'll have to wait until it gets warmer though so i can have windows open. And will have to move the pigs upstairs until the smell goes. They have sensitive noses!

tamobhuuta 15-05-2023 11:10 AM

I've got appointments tomorrow and Wednesday too. Today's jobs are sorting meds boxes and watching doctors.

I'm glad you're feeling a bit better LR.

tamobhuuta 15-05-2023 11:11 AM

Cacoethes good luck painting!

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 11:23 AM

I have 2 classes tomorrow, and meeting up with 2 pilates friends for lunch. Location undecided!
And Wednesday I'm pretty sure i just have glow beatz.
My life is so boring rn

Not painting probably untill summer tamo!

tamobhuuta 15-05-2023 11:36 AM

I've got some ideas for painting my bedroom wall but I don't have the ... persistence? To start with I would need to scrape off all the blue tack from decades of posters.

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 11:41 AM

That sounds annoying.
Thankfully, i have my neighbours to help! They are both extremely good at practical things like this! And i have no blu tack marks.

long road 15-05-2023 12:24 PM

When I moved into to my flat we painted the living room office and our bedroom. Living room is blue, office is green and bedroom is yellow. We didn't have time to paint the hall, bathroom and kitchen as well but the previous people had given them a fresh coat of white before showing the house to sell so they look alright. And then bathroom ceiling and bedroom got repainted by professional decorator paid for by insurance after we had a leak from our upstairs neighbour.

Painting can be fun but I'd recommend keeping some clothes that you don't like for when you are doing it. I got splattered especially doing ceilings!

long road 15-05-2023 12:25 PM

I am just about to go out and have a coffee in my back garden. Provided the weather behaves!

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 12:27 PM

Oooh lovely bright colours!
My living room is a very boring cream colour.
The bedroom is blue though!
The landlord got the bathroom repainted randomly last year.

I have lounge about clothes which will work!
Just jogging bottoms and massive t shirts!

Enjoy!
It's sunny here but rather windy!

long road 15-05-2023 12:31 PM

We love bright colours. Although I had to negotiate with my partner not to have green and yellow in the same room! That was a bit much for me!

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 12:32 PM

Haha! Norwich city FC colours :tongue2:

one_step_closer 15-05-2023 12:50 PM

Hey everyone.

I hope you can feel even better as the day goes on, Jen. Or at least manage. Coffee in your back garden sounds nice. It's on and off sunny here.

My living room is painted a moon grey type colour on three walls and a purple feature wall which go well together. My bedroom is painted light blue. When I was moving in someone looked out my bedroom window and said your little boy will love his room looking out onto the football pitch. I didn't correct him. My bedroom then looked more boy childish because I only had a single bed and the carpet is blue.

I've been to the chemist, put a washing on, and hoovered.

Hope you all have a good day.

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 12:57 PM

That sounds like a lovely living room!
I wish i could paint whatever colour i wanted!

Well done for doing the things!

House inspection is at some point this afternoon. No idea when though!

one_step_closer 15-05-2023 01:20 PM

I hate when there are no set times for things. Will you be going out when they come?

tamobhuuta 15-05-2023 01:37 PM

Hope the inspection goes OK.

I sorted out my meds, almost time for doctors.

long road 15-05-2023 01:41 PM

Sunny with a light breeze here and the occassional cloud covering the sun. Was lovely to enjoy my coffee out there pretty spent now though. Trying to persuade myself to take a proper rest.

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 01:53 PM

She was here for literally less than 5 mins XD
Said everything looks good
I asked about painting and she said she'd ask the landlady but she'd probably welcome it! And may even buy the paint for me. Which would help because one brand's magnolia could be like 3 shades darker than another!


Same weather here jen! Definitely have a proper rest!

tamobhuuta 15-05-2023 02:23 PM

The sun is coming and going here too.

long road 15-05-2023 02:27 PM

About to attempt a nap. Don't get up to too much mischief while I am asleep!

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 02:30 PM

*sets bin on fire*

tamobhuuta 15-05-2023 02:42 PM

Naughty Cacoethes. *pours on water* I'll tell Pi on you.

My CPN rang! I told him I was ok till our appointment on Wednesday.

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 02:53 PM

Jenna doesn't scare me :tongue2:

That's good!

Pi.R^2 15-05-2023 03:18 PM

Oh my days just came on live forum view for the first time since this morning and see Beckie’s post!!! Thanks for cheering me up :P

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 03:20 PM

About setting a bin on fire or saying I'm not scared of you?
:tongue2:

not_so_insig 15-05-2023 04:11 PM

Hello all.

one_step_closer 15-05-2023 05:01 PM

I hope you're getting some restorative rest, Jen. I'm sorry a certain person didn't seem able to refrain from causing mischief in your absence.

Oh, would you have to paint in the colours chosen by your landlord, Beckie? That's not fun. Stop being naughty, you just can't help it can you? :laugh:

I hope your appointment with your CPN on Wednesday is helpful, Tamo. Not long to wait.

Hi Dawn, how has your day been so far?

Ahimsa 15-05-2023 05:02 PM

Hey Insig!

I’m home (for now, I’m doing overtime 9-midnight)

How is everyone?

one_step_closer 15-05-2023 05:17 PM

That's so much, Beth. Will you be able to sleep afterwards? What are you doing now?

Ahimsa 15-05-2023 05:28 PM

I’m making a start on the vinyl wrap on the kitchen cupboards, I’ve got a wash on and I’m working my way through a hot chocolate ��

tamobhuuta 15-05-2023 05:29 PM

Hi insig, osc and Ahimsa. What are you up to?

one_step_closer 15-05-2023 05:33 PM

What are you doing to the kitchen cupboards? *is confused* Will you have time to hang up your wash when it's finished? I hope you're enjoying your hot chocolate, I hope you're sitting down and relaxing while drinking it.

I'm just wandering around here for a while.

What about you, Tamo?

not_so_insig 15-05-2023 05:48 PM

I havent been up to much today. Cooked my tea and had a shower. Currently am washing my bedding as I made a mess on it.

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 05:51 PM

They might let me paint another colour, but I'd most certainly have to paint it back to the original colour when i move out. Not worth the hassle. I could be given 2 months notice to leave at any time.

I'm feeling silly :-D

Goodness me beth!
Do you get paid extra for unsocial hours?

one_step_closer 15-05-2023 05:54 PM

Have you not felt up to doing much, Dawn, or just not had a lot to do? Did you have anything nice to eat?

Oh right, yeah that would be a hassle Beckie.

Silliness is ok!

I had a nap and then got to chat and have a cup of tea with my partner's parents. Which was nice.

Now chilling while partner makes the roast we were meant to have yesterday but didn't make cos it was a bad day.

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 06:07 PM

Too late!
No one was here to stop me :tongue2:

Sounds nice jen
I hope you enjoy your roast!

one_step_closer 15-05-2023 06:08 PM

Sounds good, Jen.

Stop it, Beckie!

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 06:09 PM

NEEVVEERRR!!!

one_step_closer 15-05-2023 06:10 PM

You're going to destroy the whole thread, be a bit more gentle with it yeah?

Cacoethes 15-05-2023 06:13 PM

Nah, this thread is indestructible. Much like me :-D

one_step_closer 15-05-2023 06:15 PM

You're not indestructible except maybe on here.
