Never watched them before!

long road 05-07-2023 01:38 PM

I napped for a bit.

And now I am on the sofa watching Buffy.

I've seen some classic who episodes they vary in quality but I found them very entertaining.

one_step_closer 05-07-2023 02:14 PM

You are all so sorted with TV stuff. I rarely watch anything. Just been on Oxfam online buying some books. There were 288 pages and I didn't want to miss out on anything but eventually stopped looking. Did get some books. I have a huge book Wishlist yet I rarely find anything in charity shops. I was going to buy some books from Amazon since I have a free trial of Prime but they're just so expensive when I'm used to just getting them from charity shops.

long road 05-07-2023 02:27 PM

Don't think I will watch Buffy all afternoon. I have to be on the right mood for it.

one_step_closer 05-07-2023 03:26 PM

I hope you can find things to enjoy, Jen.

I think I'm being awarded Universal Credit without even filling in the assessment form. :notsure: I got a voicemail from the job coach or whatever she's called saying my ESA assessment has come through and I don't need to send any more sick notes or do anything else and I will also be awarded disability premium. My next appointment with the job coach has been cancelled and it says they'll tell me how much money I will get on the 17th. It sounds too good to be true. I have emailed the Money Matters lady for clarification but maybe I should have phoned the job coach back. I'm kind of unsure and shocked.

tamobhuuta 05-07-2023 03:27 PM

I've never watched Buffy, I'm not a big fan of vampire stuff.

tamobhuuta 05-07-2023 03:27 PM

Excellent news osc!

one_step_closer 05-07-2023 03:32 PM

If I'm getting it correct it is definitely excellent news, Tamo! Did you get your form filled in ok? How is your day going?

tamobhuuta 05-07-2023 04:16 PM

I haven't filled it in yet, my mum's busy working. Hopefully we'll find time at the weekend.

I'm ok, was feeling very anxious and couldn't ground myself so took PRN.

not_so_insig 05-07-2023 04:17 PM

Excellent news Lindsay.

I have been wild swimming. Then washed my hair and dried it as soon as I came in. I have also done some laundry and put the recycling out. This week is ordinary bin day so had to move the wheelie bin.

tamobhuuta 05-07-2023 04:31 PM

Did you enjoy your swim?

Cacoethes 05-07-2023 04:35 PM

Hey everyone!
Axe throwing was sooo much fun!
I was terrible at it though! L was great at it XD
10/10 would go again

not_so_insig 05-07-2023 04:36 PM

Yes I did thanks tamobhuuta.

one_step_closer 05-07-2023 05:21 PM

Are you feeling any better now, Tamo?

Well done, Dawn. I'm glad you enjoyed your swim. What was the water like today?

I knew you would love it, Beckie! I'm so glad you've had an enjoyable day.

tamobhuuta 05-07-2023 05:33 PM

Less anxious but a bit confused. See r/v if interested!

one_step_closer 05-07-2023 05:42 PM

I hope you get things clear in your head soon, Tamo. I'm 100% going for theory B.

not_so_insig 05-07-2023 06:05 PM

It was cold Lindsay. But I have been in when it is 5 degrees so known it colder. I stayed for at least 20 minutes (neither me or the person I go with have a watch) in the water.

not_so_insig 05-07-2023 06:09 PM

Also i am trying to sort out stuff but my cat won't let me. He wants tons of fuss and is purring tons.

Cacoethes 05-07-2023 06:12 PM

Thanks lindsay!

I am also voting option B tamo!

tamobhuuta 05-07-2023 06:34 PM

Thanks guys!

one_step_closer 05-07-2023 07:14 PM

Aww, you have to give him all the fuss he wants Dawn!

What's everyone doing this evening?

Cacoethes 05-07-2023 07:26 PM

Glow beatz again!

one_step_closer 05-07-2023 07:42 PM

Haven't you had enough things on today, Beckie?!

tamobhuuta 05-07-2023 08:02 PM

Almost my bed time!

Cacoethes 05-07-2023 09:02 PM

Never lindsay :tongue2:

Cacoethes 06-07-2023 06:08 AM

Morning everyone!

long road 06-07-2023 07:59 AM

Morning!

Cacoethes 06-07-2023 08:11 AM

Morning!
How are you?
I've just cleaned out the piggos, so am very sweaty!

not_so_insig 06-07-2023 09:12 AM

Morning all. I have to go to cmht for my depot this morning urgh.

tamobhuuta 06-07-2023 10:07 AM

Morning guys. I hope your depot is OK insig.

long road 06-07-2023 10:44 AM

I fell back asleep twice this morning! Clearly my brain did not want to be awake. Attempt number 3 and getting up and staying awake!

tamobhuuta 06-07-2023 10:49 AM

Well done lr :)

Cacoethes 06-07-2023 11:32 AM

Must have needed the sleep jen!

Hi tamo!

I've just had nail appointment, been to aldi, now chilling before bodycombat and I'll probably need to shower after that and then clean the house and taekwondo later.
I'm very tired and could easily nap!

tamobhuuta 06-07-2023 11:56 AM

Do you have time for a nap before bodycombat?

Cacoethes 06-07-2023 12:04 PM

Nope! Need to leave at 12:25.
I'm sure it'll wake me up anyway!

What are you up to tamo?

not_so_insig 06-07-2023 12:27 PM

I have finally returned from.the cmht. Kept waiting for ages.

tamobhuuta 06-07-2023 12:37 PM

Today's laundry day, luckily it's sunny so I don't have to use the dryer.

Sorry you had a long wait insig.

not_so_insig 06-07-2023 12:42 PM

My cpn apologised to me tamobhuuta. But still I was pretty fed up. Thankfully it was an one off that I had to go to the cmht for my depot so next time it will hopefully be better.

tamobhuuta 06-07-2023 12:51 PM

Thank goodness for phones to fiddle with! Sometimes I take a book too!

one_step_closer 06-07-2023 01:09 PM

Hi everyone, well done for what people have managed so far. Sending good day wishes.

I've just started my period so feel a bit yuck. Managed to go on the bus to a nearby town though to look in the charity shops but got no books.

not_so_insig 06-07-2023 01:11 PM

Periods suck. Hope you're in not too much pain Lindsay
Sorry you didn't find any books.

one_step_closer 06-07-2023 01:13 PM

Thanks Dawn, I've taken some painkillers.

Do you have anything planned for the rest of your day?

not_so_insig 06-07-2023 01:19 PM

I have lots to do but I can't say what on a public forum. Don't forget that from tomorrow I won't be around as much for about a week in case people worry about me. Nothing bad is happening.

one_step_closer 06-07-2023 01:46 PM

I hope you get everything done, Dawn. Have a good week.

Cacoethes 06-07-2023 02:41 PM

Back from bodycombat and cleaned and showered.
Decided to clean as soon as i got in because no point in showering after bodycombat, then getting all sweaty again cleaning!
Now have nothing to do until taekwondo at 6pm. Phew!

Glad you managed to make it to the charity shop lindsay!

one_step_closer 06-07-2023 03:25 PM

What are you getting up to before taekwondo then?

Thanks, Beckie. Maybe I'll make it to your house soon, still got that stick to poke you with!

Cacoethes 06-07-2023 03:50 PM

Continuing my star wars binge watching and trying not to fall asleep!

Haha! I will be waiting!

one_step_closer 06-07-2023 03:53 PM

Are you at the head nodding stage or not quite?

Cacoethes 06-07-2023 04:33 PM

Nah! Just lots of yawning!

tamobhuuta 06-07-2023 04:37 PM

I'm glad the pain killers are helping osc.

Having fun then Cacoethes!

Have a good week insig.
