Afternoon all!

I Managed a shower this morning, first time in a week. Much needed. Am now cosy on the sofa under a blanket.

How is your tummy now Tamo?

Positive moods are good Dawn I hope it lasts for you.

What's the weather like for everyone? It was nice here until ten minutes ago when it started chucking it down with rain

one_step_closer 14-06-2024 12:57 PM

Hi everyone.

Good luck with your ward round and other things, Beckie.

Poor you, Tamo. I hope things settle soon.

Yay for feeling positive, Dawn!

Well done, Jen. :)

The weather here is just dull and wet. A Fb memory came up yesterday with a photo of Crookshanks lying in the sun patch coming through the blinds and I had said it was too hot for that. Very different this year.

tamobhuuta 14-06-2024 01:06 PM

On and off rain here.
I'm glad you're feeling positive insig.
How are you osc?
Well done showering lr. I thought my tummy was better but then I ate and it turns out not.

one_step_closer 14-06-2024 01:27 PM

Maybe just eat little things if you can, Tamo.

I'm not feeling great mentally.

tamobhuuta 14-06-2024 01:49 PM

Sorry to hear that. Look after yourself. I've found making my worry box engaging, even if I never use it!

Cacoethes 14-06-2024 05:09 PM

Hey everyone!

Hope your tummy is feeling a little better by now tamo!

Weather has been all over the place here too!
Torrential rain to sun and back again!

I've driven over 100 miles in total today! Quite tired!
Only need to go to asda, feed boys and post a parcel now and then I can relax.
And I am officially discharged from hospital. But they insisted I stay under crisis for another week :eyeroll:

one_step_closer 14-06-2024 05:57 PM

Good news, Beckie!

Cacoethes 14-06-2024 06:03 PM

Thank you! It is a relief!
She asked what I wanted from the ward round and I was like 'to be discharged? Obviously! Isn't that why we're all here?' XD

tamobhuuta 14-06-2024 06:33 PM

Lol good news.

Tummy is feeling better thanks.

Cacoethes 14-06-2024 07:04 PM

That's good tamo :)

Cacoethes 15-06-2024 08:41 AM

Morning everyone!
We slept in until 8am!!

tamobhuuta 15-06-2024 10:59 AM

Morning Cacoethes. I slept in till half 10! How are you? Any plans for today?

not_so_insig 15-06-2024 11:53 AM

Morning all.

long road 15-06-2024 12:04 PM

Afternoon! I managed to get up at my alarm of 9:45 am again. a few more days and I might be back in a routine!

How's everyone's days shaping up?

tamobhuuta 15-06-2024 12:11 PM

Hi insig and lr! I'm having another quiet day because my stomach is screwing with me again. What are you two up to?

long road 15-06-2024 12:41 PM

Watching TV and chilling for now.

Hope your stomach settles soon.

not_so_insig 15-06-2024 12:59 PM

I am having a tesco shopping order this afternoon so will be busy putting that away. Fortunately I have no frozen stuff so I can take my time. Unfortunately I have 2 unavailable items and 1 substitute. The 2 unavailable items were my sandwich and my doughnuts. So will have to find something else for lunch as planned to have my sandwich. The doughnuts aren't essential but nice to have.

one_step_closer 15-06-2024 01:33 PM

Hi everyone.

Hope your days are going ok.

In some news, we have a new most ever members online stat:

Most members ever online was 6090 on June 8, 2024 at 23:31 PM.

not_so_insig 15-06-2024 01:41 PM

Probably bots rather than real people Lindsay. I think we have less than 100 active members.

tamobhuuta 15-06-2024 01:53 PM

That's sad about the bots. also sad about the missing food items!

not_so_insig 15-06-2024 01:59 PM

My tesco order came early. Am relaxing now before I tackle putting stuff away.

one_step_closer 15-06-2024 02:07 PM

It's still an updated stat!

Good luck with putting your shopping away, Dawn.

not_so_insig 15-06-2024 04:12 PM

I have put everything away now thanks Lindsay.

tamobhuuta 15-06-2024 04:20 PM

Well done insig.

not_so_insig 15-06-2024 06:04 PM

Thanks tamobhuuta.

Zurg 15-06-2024 06:43 PM

Evening all. I spent Yesterday trying to be an accountant and it has drained my entire mental and physical capacity. I have not managed to feel completely awake yet today…. Too many days like this are waiting ahead. I feel completely sucked dry of optimism already :(
Fun fact; i just found a bird seed in my hair…. That does tend to happen once in a while. Courtesy of my 3 birdies <3

Also, we have been officially adviced to start prepping here in Denmark. So i've made a list of items i need to Stock up on and i have just ordered a trangia set. Oddly enough, this seems a whole lot easier to deal with than the daily mental health stuff.

Zurg 15-06-2024 06:43 PM

Also, Jen, congrats on becoming auntie Jen <3 kids are awesome!!!!

long road 15-06-2024 09:09 PM

Thanks Zurg! Was already a auntie have a nephew but new niblings are always exciting!

Sorry everything is all overwhelming right now Zurg.

Zurg 16-06-2024 08:04 AM

Morning all :)
How is everyone???

tamobhuuta 16-06-2024 09:42 AM

Morning Zurg. I'm ok thanks, but I think I'm going to have to call my GP about my stomach tomorrow. How are you?

one_step_closer 16-06-2024 12:11 PM

Hi everyone.

How are you doing today, Kat?

Sorry to hear you're still unwell, Tamo. I hope you can get an appointment with the GP and they can help.

Zurg 16-06-2024 12:24 PM

Sorry about that, Tamo :( stomach troubles are quite stressful. I hope your gp can suggest something that helps.
Hi Lindsay. Apart from being chronically and insanely tired, i feel okay. We had a bit of a semi savage rainshower this morning, which of course took place while i was out grocery shopping. Rude!!!
Are you guys up to anything today?

tamobhuuta 16-06-2024 01:03 PM

Thanks for the sympathy guys. I'm going to see how things go but I'd like to go to Mass, I haven't been since Wednesday.

How are you osc?

I hope you didn't get too wet Zurg!

one_step_closer 16-06-2024 03:56 PM

Oh no, Kat! Did you have to change all your clothes? I haven't managed to get out today because it has been raining non stop.

I hope you can get to Mass, Tamo.

tamobhuuta 16-06-2024 04:49 PM

I'm feeling confident and off to Mass!

one_step_closer 16-06-2024 06:08 PM

Great stuff! Enjoy.

tamobhuuta 16-06-2024 06:12 PM

I enjoyed Mass, even somewhat because of the visible pain the terrible musicians caused my dad!

one_step_closer 16-06-2024 06:16 PM

Oh dear!

Zurg 16-06-2024 08:31 PM

Hehe, Tamo. Glad to hear it was worth the risk :)
I dried up pretty fast after coming home, Lindsay.
Just having a cup of tea before bedtime. I tried smooching and cuddling Findus but the wee beast ran off and escaped into his litterbox. Rude!!!

tamobhuuta 17-06-2024 08:17 AM

Morning all.

Cacoethes 17-06-2024 09:17 AM

Morning :)

not_so_insig 17-06-2024 11:09 AM

Morning all.

not_so_insig 17-06-2024 01:10 PM

Quiet in here today. I am killing time until my cpn comes at 2.30 pm. Written and posted a postcard. Naff all on the telly.

one_step_closer 17-06-2024 01:17 PM

Hi everyone. How are you all?

Hope it goes well with your CPN, Dawn.

not_so_insig 17-06-2024 01:26 PM

I am ok. The window people are working on the flat above me so am having to contend with banging, hammering and drilling today. But I am not too stressed atm.

one_step_closer 17-06-2024 01:28 PM

That would really annoy me. Do you have music/the tv or something on to make the noises less prominent?

not_so_insig 17-06-2024 01:32 PM

There's nothing on the telly and I don't want to put my earbuds in in case I dont hear my cpn knocking. Fortunately atm they're on their dinner break so it's quiet.

tamobhuuta 17-06-2024 01:53 PM

I had a crisp butty for lunch!

not_so_insig 17-06-2024 02:48 PM

What flavour tamobhuuta?

Cpn has been and appointment was ok.

one_step_closer 17-06-2024 03:52 PM

Yum, Tamo! I usually go for salt and vinegar, cheese and onion, or tomato sauce.

Glad your appointment went ok, Dawn.
