They couldn't give me my meds straight away, some problem with the computer. I'm just picking them up now.

not_so_insig 16-12-2024 02:53 PM

Hello all. I am currently waiting for tesco with my shopping order. 1 substitution and 1 unavailable item.

one_step_closer 16-12-2024 03:34 PM

Afternoon everyone. I had an appointment with my CPN so trying to catch up with all my stuff now. I hate when I can't stick to my usual schedule but of course I need to see my CPN.

Hope work is going ok, Beckie. Can you take anything/do anything for the pain while you're there?

Hope you enjoyed Mass and got your meds ok, Tamo.

Thank you for the birthday card, Dawn. I have put it back in the envelope to open on my actual birthday.

not_so_insig 16-12-2024 04:20 PM

Glad you got your birthday card Lindsay. I have an birthday card that i must post tomorrow as Wednesday is the last date for 2nd class.

Cacoethes 17-12-2024 08:39 AM

Morning everyone

tamobhuuta 17-12-2024 11:26 AM

Morning Cacoethes how are you?

not_so_insig 17-12-2024 12:07 PM

Morning all.

one_step_closer 17-12-2024 12:08 PM

Morning everyone, how are you all?

I won't be on here for a bit because I'm going to the last colouring group of the year.

Hope you all have a good day.

Cacoethes 17-12-2024 12:08 PM

Morning!
I'm ok thanks. At my nanny's in Norwich!

How are you?

Hope you enjoy it lindsay!

one_step_closer 17-12-2024 12:11 PM

How is your nanny doing? Is she still giving you lots of treats? :-)

I'm trying to ignore myself. The group leader is going to be dressing up as Mrs Claus and one of the peoples support worker is dressing up as an Elf and I think I might find it hard not to laugh!

not_so_insig 17-12-2024 12:38 PM

I am ok thanks Lindsay. Having a lazy day.

Unfortunately there's a wind warning for my area. I don't have a full TV service from the last storm.

one_step_closer 17-12-2024 12:42 PM

Not more wind! Do you not have much wind cover?

not_so_insig 17-12-2024 01:19 PM

No I live in an exposed windy spot. Also the council decided to put the communal TV aerial and satellite dish in a exposed spot too. I think that I will miss Olympia if my tv signal goes :angry: .

not_so_insig 17-12-2024 01:25 PM

Oh and btw tomorrow is the last posting day for 2nd class post in case people want to post cards or parcels.

tamobhuuta 17-12-2024 01:30 PM

I hope you have fun osc. I think you're allowed to laugh!

Cacoethes 17-12-2024 04:37 PM

My nanny isn't doing so well, but she's still in pretty good spirits. She's had to cancel even hospital appointments this week because she's not up to it. Bit worried, as she's 83 and has quite a few bad health issues. But she has a good team of drs and it sounds like they're really taking care of her. Though she refuses to go to the GP about her breathing because she knows they'll send her to hospital :eyeroll:
She knows herself best though. She's still up and about, and made me coffees and lunch.
Had a little cry in the car.

tamobhuuta 17-12-2024 04:40 PM

Sorry to hear your nanny's unwell. It's ok to have a cry.

Cacoethes 17-12-2024 05:37 PM

Thanks tamo <3

one_step_closer 17-12-2024 07:11 PM

Sorry to hear that, Beckie. It's always sad when you see a loved one like that. I'm glad she's still in good spirits though.

The group leader was unwell so didn't come to colouring. The support worker Elf was there though and she looked very unhappy to be the only one dressed up!

How is your day going, Tamo?

Cacoethes 17-12-2024 07:15 PM

Thank you lindsay <3

That's a shame!
Bit awkward for the elf!

one_step_closer 17-12-2024 07:28 PM

Yeah I think there was actually meant to be another support worker elf but they bailed too! She actually went on the bus with her client in her costume!

not_so_insig 17-12-2024 07:54 PM

I have wrapped my present (just got one left to wrap) and wrote plus posted a birthday card. Think that's it. I am not doing any more cards or presents. All whilst watching The Railway Children.

tamobhuuta 17-12-2024 09:05 PM

I decorated my room for Christmas today :)

not_so_insig 17-12-2024 09:54 PM

That's good tamobhuuta

not_so_insig 18-12-2024 07:50 AM

Morning all.

tamobhuuta 18-12-2024 09:16 AM

Good morning insig how are you?

not_so_insig 18-12-2024 12:37 PM

I am slightly hot but otherwise ok tamobhuuta.

Cacoethes 18-12-2024 12:53 PM

Morning guys

We've been to stevenage this morning to get L's parents presents.

Everyone ok?
Any exciting plans today?

tamobhuuta 18-12-2024 01:00 PM

I hope you're not too uncomfortable insig.

Did you have fun shopping Cacoethes?

We are going to start by decorating the main rooms today but the tree tomorrow.

Cacoethes 18-12-2024 01:20 PM

Yes it was quite nice thanks! We only went to majestic, a big wine shop/warehouse. But it was a successful trip, which is always satisfying!

That sounds nice tamo
Are you going to put on some Christmassy music?
We did, but the rock/metal versions of Christmas songs XD

one_step_closer 18-12-2024 01:40 PM

Afternoon everyone.

Hope you can get to a comfortable temperature, Dawn.

Oh I hate actual shop shopping! Well done on a successful trip, Beckie.

Enjoy your decorating, Tamo.

one_step_closer 18-12-2024 01:41 PM

And Beckie, please lead me to some rock/metal versions of Christmas songs!

Cacoethes 18-12-2024 04:58 PM

Thanks lindsay!

It was a playlist on Spotify!
Think i searched 'metal Christmas'
And 'naughty Christmas' by lacuna coil is a favourite

not_so_insig 18-12-2024 06:28 PM

I am at the ideal temperature now. I put the recycling and ordinary bin out before. Normally the ordinary bin wouldn't get collected this week but we are having an extra bin collection due to the fact there's none next week. That's because our bin day falls on Boxing day.

How is your shoulder now Beckie?

Cacoethes 18-12-2024 07:37 PM

Glad you're feeling more comfortable dawn!

It's still painful but a lot better thank you!

not_so_insig 18-12-2024 07:42 PM

Glad that your shoulder is better Beckie.

Cacoethes 18-12-2024 08:07 PM

Thank you dawn :)

How is everyone this evening?

tamobhuuta 18-12-2024 08:54 PM

We didn't decorate in the end, Dad was busy with other stuff so we'll do it tomorrow. Good choice of music Cacoethes!

Cacoethes 18-12-2024 09:12 PM

At least it's something to look forward to tomorrow!

Cacoethes 19-12-2024 09:58 AM

Morning everyone
We were up all night with S
Poor thing was sick like 7 times :(

tamobhuuta 19-12-2024 10:40 AM

Aw, sorry S is poorly. How is he now? I hope you and L don't catch it!

Cacoethes 19-12-2024 11:23 AM

He seems to be settling, though hasn't managed anything to eat yet. Time will tell.

How are you?

tamobhuuta 19-12-2024 11:52 AM

That's good, hopefully he will improve. How are you?

I am ok thanks, just finishing a cup of tea with my dad. My mum got sent a present in a fancy box so she gave the box to me - I'm trying to decide what to do with it.

not_so_insig 19-12-2024 12:56 PM

Morning all.

one_step_closer 19-12-2024 01:27 PM

Afternoon everyone.

I hope S has recovered, Beckie. Got any plans today?

Ooh I do like a fancy box but I rarely know what to do with them. What does it look like, Tamo?

Hi Dawn, how are you?

It's my birthday today and my friend will be coming over soon to have a teddy bears picnic. Not the usual way people celebrate their 38th birthday! I'm hoping it will be chilled and I won't get anxious about my potential death.

tamobhuuta 19-12-2024 02:44 PM

Happy birthday osc! I hope you can have fun with your friend, a teddy bears' picnic sounds fun.

Hi insig, how are you?

long road 19-12-2024 03:39 PM

Yay teddy bears! Hope you can enjoy your picnic without mental health getting in the way Lindsay. I am 31 and play with teddy bears so not odd to me! Happy Bear-thday!

Boxes are fun Tamo! Are you maybe going to decorate it or just use it for storage?

Hey Dawn!

Hope S feels better and you and L don't catch it Beckie!

I have spent most of today reading manga but getting tired now so going to try and meditate and then maybe nap.

Cacoethes 19-12-2024 04:25 PM

Happy birthday Lindsay!!
I hope you enjoy your time with your friend

Have you decided yet tamo?

Thanks guys for S's well wishes.
He seems pretty ok now

Sounds like a good plan jen

not_so_insig 19-12-2024 04:25 PM

I am ok thanks all. Happy birthday Lindsay.

I have been to my hearing voices group. We had food and drinks. There was plenty left over so the remaining food was divided between us.

not_so_insig 19-12-2024 04:27 PM

Ninja Beckie. Glad S is better now. There seems to be a lot of bugs going around as I know several people who are ill with it.
