Appointment was ok. Nothing in depth more of a check in / quick update

Cacoethes 16-11-2023 11:53 AM

Zoomies are adorable though!
Pippin has been getting them a lot these last couple of days!
Good luck with your epic baking mission zurg!

Morning beth!
Feeling any better today?

Sorry you're feeling like that lindsay :(

A van has just gone past, i assume delivering veg because the van had 'live life on the veg' on it. I'm sure the furry potatoes would agree! XD

Glad it was ok jen

Ahimsa 16-11-2023 12:01 PM

What an amazing van!!!

Ahimsa 16-11-2023 12:02 PM

I'm not feeling great, I've got this horrible cold thing that's going round ☹️

Cacoethes 16-11-2023 12:06 PM

Oh no!
Dose up on lemsip and drink plenty of water!
And try and stay warm

long road 16-11-2023 12:14 PM

Ok but maybe not as good as I hoped. Hitting a bit of a downer.

Took me a minute to remember furry potatoes = guinea pigs and got confused about who would want to buy furry potatoes XD

Ooh raisin buns Zurg how exciting!

Feel Better soon Beth!

Cacoethes 16-11-2023 12:18 PM

That's a shame
Maybe have a fancy coffee?

Haha! I call them all sorts tbh XD

Ahimsa 16-11-2023 12:23 PM

No cosyness for me I'm afraid, I'm at work ☹️

Cacoethes 16-11-2023 12:30 PM

Boo to work!

one_step_closer 16-11-2023 12:34 PM

Flood your negative brain with good things, Jen!

That's a shame, Beth. I just had a cold, hope I didn't pass it to you! Look after yourself as much as you can. Hope you can get cosy after work.

The window cleaner is cleaning windows in a weird way, doing bits of different houses. He hasn't cleaned my back windows, I hope he comes back to do them and doesn't just come to my door for the money because I won't say he hasn't done them I'll just give him the money.

Cacoethes 16-11-2023 12:46 PM

Just don't answer the door lindsay!

not_so_insig 16-11-2023 01:29 PM

Afternoon all. It's dry here atm because the forecast is rain today. Been to fetch my recycling boxes. Had a magazine come all the way from the USA in my letterbox today.

tamobhuuta 16-11-2023 01:47 PM

Sorry you're not feeling well Zurg.

long road 16-11-2023 02:22 PM

I had a seizure and then a nap. Feeling a bit groggy still and haven't qork out how I am feeling emotionally yet

Going have tomato soup and baguette for lunch (the part bake ones you finish at home).

USA post is exciting Dawn. Although sometimes you have to pay custom charges and that sucks.

Cacoethes 16-11-2023 02:27 PM

Love those part baked baguettes!
Sorry you're feeling so ****
Soup is a good choice when you aren't feeling well

long road 16-11-2023 02:45 PM

They are awesome. I love fresh bread and this is the easiest way to get it at home. It's Heinz tomato soup which is bizarrely the only soup I reliably like.

Not sure what to do with my afternoon feel like I should try something nice to cheer myself up but at same time have very little energy.

Cacoethes 16-11-2023 03:52 PM

Ooh heinz!

So you need something nice but also low energy!
I'll try and think of something

My nail lady messaged when i was at the station to say she was free from then. I said I'd be there approximately 10 past and i actually got there dead on 10 past!
It was a really rough estimate because the train was late. I'm psychic, clearly

Ahimsa 16-11-2023 04:10 PM

Magic skillz Beckie!!

Cacoethes 16-11-2023 04:21 PM

I know!
Maybe i should buy a lottery ticket

Ahimsa 16-11-2023 04:31 PM

You should ��

How is everyone's day going? I finish in an hour and 15 minutes and I'm so looking forward to crawling into bed.

long road 16-11-2023 04:32 PM

I mean you would have a better chance of winning than someone like me who doesn't buy a ticket XD

I watched some of the culprits but it was a bit too graphic for how I am feeling today. So on the look out for a more chill TV show

one_step_closer 16-11-2023 04:55 PM

If I didn't answer the door they would put a card through and make me do a bank transfer. Luckily the guy did come back and clean the back windows.

Did you order the magazine, Dawn?

Have you found something better to watch, Jen?

Definitely psychic, Beckie!

Hope the time passes quickly, Beth.

Ahimsa 16-11-2023 05:03 PM

We're getting there, 45 minutes left!

one_step_closer 16-11-2023 05:13 PM

Keep going! Is there anything you can do that will make time pass quicker? Not literally obviously!

not_so_insig 16-11-2023 05:25 PM

I joined a club last year and it's part of the members benefits Lindsay.

one_step_closer 16-11-2023 05:31 PM

Cool. Is it a fun magazine?

Cacoethes 16-11-2023 05:47 PM

I don't buy lottery tickets either!

They wouldn't be able to make you do a bank transfer lindsay! Because that would be highly illegal!

Are you done yet beth??

Ahimsa 16-11-2023 06:07 PM

I am!!

It's good when it's quiet because it's animal A&E and obviously we don't like poorly animals, but it does mean it drags!

Ahimsa 16-11-2023 06:11 PM

ADHD win! I have surprise post and don't remember ordering anything

Cacoethes 16-11-2023 06:16 PM

Yeah i get that

Ooh anything exciting?

I had a credit card arrive today
What could possibly go wrong.....?

Ahimsa 16-11-2023 06:20 PM

Sadness!! It's a fidget toy but I don't like it, so now I need to send it back ☹️

Zurg 16-11-2023 06:33 PM

That's not cool, Beth!!! Surprise mail should always be a fabulous experience. Otherwise the item should be free of charge!!! Make surprise mail great again!!!! XD

I managed to make the buns. They turned out very nice which is good because otherwise i'd might be embarressed to serve them on saturday when my friends come….
I also cleaned TWO bird cages. AND a bun bun litterbox!! And did a wee bit of grocery shopping and fetched two parcels and i nearly died of exhaustion on the way back because the one parcel was huge and contained a bag of Findus' favourite hay….. and it was way too much for one day so i've been in 'head and its big negative overdrive mode' since. Lots of bunny cuddles for me tonight, i think!!!
I hope you're all as well as possible despite evil colds, suspicious windo cleaners and the like….!!!

Ahimsa 16-11-2023 06:45 PM

ooh yay for good buns! Well done :)

Cacoethes 16-11-2023 06:46 PM

How disappointing beth!

Sounds like a productive day zurg!

Zurg 16-11-2023 06:48 PM

Thanks :)
Sometimes when people don't know me very well yet, they are always so amazed when they eat at my place. The very look of utmost surprise on their face when they exclaim “oh, you can COOK???”
Why yes, of course i can. I'm 42 ffs, i have not yet mastered living from photosynthesis…..

Cacoethes 16-11-2023 07:59 PM

Haha!
I wonder what they thought you did! XD

Ahimsa 16-11-2023 08:27 PM

Magic?!

Cacoethes 16-11-2023 08:34 PM

Magic for cooking would be amazing tbh

long road 16-11-2023 08:44 PM

Hey everyone!

Not got energy to reply properly to everyone sorry.

Just had an asthma attack but seem to have got I under control with my home nebuliser. Am watching classic doctor who

Cacoethes 16-11-2023 08:51 PM

It's ok jen
Not like you're one of those people who ALWAYS ignore everyone elses posts!

I hope it stays under control
Ain't nobody got time for ambulances!

long road 16-11-2023 09:33 PM

Indeed I have already seen two ambulance crews this week could do without a third! And could do with staying home even more! Lungs are a bit grumpy so could go either way I think.

Ahimsa 16-11-2023 09:52 PM

I'm struggling a bit - I've posted in serious. If anyone's around?

Cacoethes 17-11-2023 06:31 AM

Morning everyone

Ahimsa 17-11-2023 10:39 AM

Morning Beckie

long road 17-11-2023 10:46 AM

Morning!

one_step_closer 17-11-2023 11:20 AM

Morning everyone.

What does today have in store for you? As much as you can predict anyway. Hope you have some nice things going on.

Cacoethes 17-11-2023 11:32 AM

Morning everyone!
How are we all?

I did a thing, then put some washing on and went to asda. And called ED team because psychologist hasn't sent the teams link. And cpn called.
I should really clean the house.

long road 17-11-2023 11:49 AM

I managed to have a shower. Which I have been trying to have since Tuesday so was sorely needed!

How are you Lindsay?

Well done for your things Beckie. Hope ED Team get back to you pronto.

Cacoethes 17-11-2023 11:53 AM

Well done jen!
I also had a shower, i forgot XD

Thank you!
Nothing as of yet

long road 17-11-2023 12:15 PM

Well done on your shower.

They better get their act together or I will be coming after them!

I just called GP surgery as still not feeling amazing after asthma attack last night. Waiting for a callback at some indeterminate time.
