Hi osc, how are you?

one_step_closer 01-09-2024 12:48 PM

Dissatisfied. Stuck.

Done a lot of housework and going to have lunch soon.

Ahimsa 01-09-2024 01:26 PM

Why are you dissatisfied?

tamobhuuta 01-09-2024 02:46 PM

Well done on activity osc. Hope you enjoyed lunch.

Ahimsa 01-09-2024 06:23 PM

Hope your visit was good Tamo?

I went out for masking tape, painted the skirting boards, dado rails and 2/8 doorframes. Had a nap and then I've just cleaned some of the counter top and am eating a sandwich now :)

one_step_closer 01-09-2024 06:47 PM

Just not enjoying anything, Beth. Go you with your productivity!

What's everyone doing this evening?

long road 01-09-2024 07:04 PM

Hey everyone.

Sorry haven't been around today, it's been a hard one mentally.

I am just watching some you tube on my laptop

one_step_closer 01-09-2024 07:05 PM

Sorry your day has been hard, Jen. Sending lots of good vibes for a better day tomorrow.

What sort of stuff do you watch on YouTube?

long road 01-09-2024 07:20 PM

Mix of things. History documentary style content, travel vlogs, some cooking/ food shows, a man who goes camping, wildlife videos a load of differnet musicians/ bands. Plus a few channels on other miscellaneous topics.

Watching a travel vlog of people training to take on a mountain ultra marathon at the moment.

tamobhuuta 01-09-2024 08:18 PM

Had a good visit thanks. L starts back at school-work on Tuesday next week so won't be able to visit as much.

Cacoethes 02-09-2024 08:00 AM

Morning everyone

tamobhuuta 02-09-2024 09:52 AM

Morning Cacoethes how are you?

Cacoethes 02-09-2024 10:06 AM

Morning. I'm ok thanks. Little stressed!

How are you?

not_so_insig 02-09-2024 10:51 AM

Morning all.

long road 02-09-2024 11:53 AM

Morning (just)!

one_step_closer 02-09-2024 12:11 PM

Afternoon everyone.

Sorry you're stressed, Beckie. Look after yourself.

How is everyone else?

Cacoethes 02-09-2024 12:42 PM

Hey guys!
How are we all?

Thanks lindsay. I'll be ok :)
Got quoted £20 more than the original quote for my taxi to work. I hassled them into submission and paid the original quote XD.
But they were on time at least. So I'm at work.

one_step_closer 02-09-2024 12:44 PM

I wish I could stand up for myself like you, Beckie! I'm glad you didn't just pay the extra amount. Hope work goes well.

Cacoethes 02-09-2024 12:51 PM

It helps that I literally only had £7 more than the original quote in my account XD
But I wouldn't have paid it even if I had it. £20 is a lot of money! This company have form for not letting people out of the car until they pay the new price. I'm FAR too stubborn for that. They'd give in way before I would XD

I was never able to stand up for myself before. Idk what changed tbh. Just stopped caring what people think I guess!

tamobhuuta 02-09-2024 01:43 PM

Well done Cacoethes!

one_step_closer 02-09-2024 02:18 PM

What an awful company. I'm surprised anyone uses them.

How are you doing, Tamo?

not_so_insig 02-09-2024 02:24 PM

I have a busy day today. Had amazon, waiting for tesco and yodel. Bit anxious about yodel as last time I had them they delivered my parcel to the wrong place.

one_step_closer 02-09-2024 02:29 PM

Fingers crossed your deliveries all arrive safely. Some companies are awful.

long road 02-09-2024 03:15 PM

Hi everyone,

I tried to go to the seaside earlier but had to turn around before we go there as I had a seizure in car while my partner was driving us. Came home and came straight to bed and slept. Was then woken up about a hour into sleeping by a phone call from hospital asthma nurse following up after I was in hospital 2 weeks ago.

Still tired but better than I was before my nap. Going to have to take it easy yet again today though.

Well done for winning the battle with the taxi company Beckie.

Hope deliveries go ok Dawn. I to have had bad experiences with Yodel in the past. They didn't knock (I was in all day) and left a parcel in the driveway of where I was living at the time. I only saw it get delivered by chance as I was upstairs when th delivery person abandoned it there!

not_so_insig 02-09-2024 03:27 PM

I have had my tesco delivery. I seem to be having the same delivery driver. Trouble is I don't like her as she has all the charm of a wet doormat. Though she was friendly today.

I just have the horrible task of putting everything away. I have done the fridge and freezer stuff plus the heavy bottles. Then I can have my doughnuts.

not_so_insig 02-09-2024 03:38 PM

Yodel have been. They delivered to my flat ok. Just gotta open the parcel and try on the shoes.

long road 02-09-2024 03:40 PM

Ooh doughnuts! What kind? A great mid chore reward :)

not_so_insig 02-09-2024 03:54 PM

Krispy kreme doughnuts so an assortment:-D

tamobhuuta 02-09-2024 04:19 PM

Ooo krispy Kreme!

I have spent all afternoon in waiting mode for ward rounds, they keep changing the time.

long road 02-09-2024 04:25 PM

Ooh an assortment! Krispy kreme are fancy doughnuts too.

I am having a Lidl chocolate doughnut and a cup of coffee.

How frustrating Tamo hope you finally get ward round sooner rather than later.

one_step_closer 02-09-2024 06:20 PM

Sorry your seaside trip wasn't successful, Jen. :( Glad you have a chocolate doughnut though!

I've never had Krispy Kreme doughnuts, Dawn. Enjoy!

Hope you've had your ward round by now, Tamo.

tamobhuuta 02-09-2024 07:01 PM

Krispy Kreme are lush osc.

I posted in Serious about ward rounds. It wasn't very eventful.

Cacoethes 02-09-2024 10:30 PM

Hey everyone!

long road 02-09-2024 11:10 PM

Evening!

Cacoethes 03-09-2024 12:06 AM

How are you?

long road 03-09-2024 12:51 AM

In pain so can't sleep. You?

Cacoethes 03-09-2024 07:40 AM

Hope you managed some sleep jen!

Morning everyone

tamobhuuta 03-09-2024 09:26 AM

I struggled to sleep too.

Morning guys!

Cacoethes 03-09-2024 09:41 AM

Morning tamo
How are you?

long road 03-09-2024 11:27 AM

I did indeed get to sleep eventually.

Pretty groggy this morning though.

Cacoethes 03-09-2024 11:37 AM

Good.
Could you nap later on if needed?

one_step_closer 03-09-2024 11:42 AM

Morning everyone.

Sorry about people's hard time sleeping, I also had a hard time sleeping. Maybe we're all synced! Did you sleep ok Beckie?

Anyone doing anything nice today?

Cacoethes 03-09-2024 11:44 AM

Morning lindsay!

I woke up a few times which was annoying.

I'm looking after S all day while L is at teacher training.
He is....challenging! But we're both still in one piece so it's fine! Only 4 and a bit hours to go XD
How about you?

one_step_closer 03-09-2024 11:54 AM

I hope your day with S goes ok, Beckie.

I'm going to the colouring group today.

long road 03-09-2024 11:55 AM

I might try and get a nap later. I think partners parents are visiting this afternoon.

Hope looking after S goes smoothly Beckie I know his additional needs can be a lot at times.

If we are synced sleep wise I apologise to you all as my sleep is all over the place!

How are you Lindsay?

Cacoethes 03-09-2024 11:57 AM

Thanks both!

Hope you enjoy the colouring group lindsay

Nap sounds like it would be a good plan

long road 03-09-2024 12:20 PM

Just chilling listening to music for now.

Cacoethes 03-09-2024 12:25 PM

Sounds good!

not_so_insig 03-09-2024 12:53 PM

Afternoon all. Another one who had trouble with their sleep.

Cacoethes 03-09-2024 02:11 PM

I wish I could nap XD
