Yes though thankfully it's not waking me up early so far.

Sketchy 04-01-2018 05:24 PM

I’m now home.

Having a rest before I start tidying my living room. Fun times!

Buttons. 04-01-2018 05:40 PM

Have fun with the living room Lorraine my dad tried mine earlier and now I have no idea where anything is :p

Glad to see you around Lins.

I apologise the anyone I haven’t acknowledged but I’m on my phone so doubly difficult

Sketchy 04-01-2018 05:49 PM

Hey Buttons!

I’ll need to move soon and just get it done. Urgh.

Cacoethes 04-01-2018 06:17 PM

Ive been saying i need to clean the house for ages.
But just got a new game sooo...

I have fit beatz tonight. Haven't been in ages and im looking forward to it

Hope you manage to get some cleaning done Lorraine!

Good to see you Lindsay!

one_step_closer 04-01-2018 07:10 PM

Hello, thanks for saying hi everyone.

January is an especially annoying time for cleaning and tidying. My bin goes out tonight so I had to move tons of boxes and stuff that were piled up in my kitchen out to the bin.

Eska 04-01-2018 07:21 PM

Evening everyone.

Hi Lindsay! Good to see you, sorry you've been feeling rubbish.

Hope you enjoy fit beatz Beckie.

Good luck with your tidying Lorraine! I hope you find it satisfying :)

Hi Buttons, how's your day been?

Cacoethes 04-01-2018 07:34 PM

Hi Eska!
How are you?

Eska 04-01-2018 07:40 PM

I feel better than I have done over the last few days! I was in work today and I think it helped me clear my head a bit. Now just need to go via tescos and I'll be home :)

Sketchy 04-01-2018 07:42 PM

Yay I did some housework. My flat isn’t perfect, still more to go, but I did a good amount of it. Siting in my living room instead of hiding in my room!

Eska 04-01-2018 07:44 PM

Well done Lorraine! That's great :)

Sketchy 04-01-2018 07:45 PM

Thanks Eska. I’m feeling pleased with myself and encouraged to do more over the weekend.

Cacoethes 04-01-2018 07:48 PM

Glad you're feeling better Eska!

Well done Lorraine!

Sketchy 04-01-2018 07:48 PM

Thanks Beckie.

How is everyone?

Aubergine 04-01-2018 07:50 PM

Hello!

Cacoethes 04-01-2018 07:51 PM

Hi Aubergine!
How are you?

Im ok.
Getting ready to go to fit beatz.
Luckily its only a 7 min walk away because its horrible outside!

Sketchy 04-01-2018 07:53 PM

Hey Aubergine!

That’s good you’re going to fit beatz. You always enjoy it.

Cacoethes 04-01-2018 07:56 PM

Yep i haven't been able to afford to go for months but i got some Christmas money so I can go :)

Sketchy 04-01-2018 08:00 PM

Yay that’s great!

My dad gave me some money for Christmas. I’m saving it until I know what I want to buy.

Cacoethes 04-01-2018 08:04 PM

Thats a sensible plan!

Sketchy 04-01-2018 08:08 PM

Yeh I don’t want to waste it.

I’m watching gps behind closed doors because there is nothing else on. I could put one of my new dvds on.

Cacoethes 04-01-2018 08:13 PM

Ive still got some money left.
All i have bought so far is my printer and that was on offer!

I quite like that show.
Im watching police interceptors but heading off to fit beatz now!
See you guys later!

Sketchy 04-01-2018 08:17 PM

Enjoy yourself Beckie.

nonperson 04-01-2018 08:35 PM

Rargh...

Hello.

Aubergine 04-01-2018 08:41 PM

Have fun, Beckie!


How's it going, Lorraine? Wise to wait to spend your Christmas money until you know what to buy!


Hey Person! How are you?


I'm OK thanks. Been at work today. It was OK. I get to finish at 1:30pm tomorrow instead of 6pm. Hooray!

nonperson 04-01-2018 08:42 PM

I think I'm about to have a breakdown, or be sick, purely because of being invited to the cinema...

Sketchy 04-01-2018 08:44 PM

Hey Aubergine, I’m fine. Feeling pleased that I did some tidying.

Are you ok Nonperson? Do you not want to go to the cinema? It’s ok to say no.

nonperson 04-01-2018 08:48 PM

I really hate social situations..... Haven't given an answer yet but I need to tomorrow... I feel bad if I say no because I don't have a reason not to go... I feel like I have to make an excuse or lie or something.

But I really REALLY want to see Star Wars.... =(

So much stress over a stupid little thing.

Sketchy 04-01-2018 08:50 PM

Is there anything that will make the situation easier? You don’t have to feel bad for saying no. I understand how stressful these situations can be.

nonperson 04-01-2018 08:53 PM

I'm not sure.

I like the people who have invited me. I'm probably not as bad in social situations as I think I am... but everything about it makes me panic and worry and stress out.

And I don't have anyone to rant at to try and figure it out.

I think I kinda want to go... but that could just be because of the film rather than the situation.

Sketchy 04-01-2018 09:03 PM

You can rant to me.

Whatever you decide is ok.

nonperson 04-01-2018 09:05 PM

Now I'm thinking that I can just wait until it comes out on DVD.

Sketchy 04-01-2018 09:24 PM

Or, you could pop along on a week day when it’s quiet and go yourself. I’m determined to do that this year. Just go to the cinema myself and suit myself.

nonperson 04-01-2018 09:29 PM

Yeah I often think about going on my own. But the thought of going alone is just as stressful as going with people...

Sketchy 04-01-2018 09:36 PM

I plan to go on a weekday afternoon if I go by myself. Would that help? The cinema is always quiet then. And you can get a pick and mix!

I understand it being stressful though. Just go at your own pace, and if you can’t go yet then that’s ok.

Cacoethes 04-01-2018 09:50 PM

I am back.
It was so much fun but damn I can feel that I haven't been in a while!!

Nonperson, make sure you make the decision that's right for you. You don't have to feel bad about whatever you decide.

nonperson 04-01-2018 10:01 PM

Glad you had a good time. There's nothing like exercise for a fun boost. =)


I will feel bad whatever decision I make. If I say yes I'll spend the next two days worrying and stressing about it, and if I say no I'll spend the next two days (or more) beating myself up for being a failure at life.

Sketchy 04-01-2018 10:13 PM

It’s a hard one. But remember we are here for you whatever you decide. We’ve got your back!

Glad you had fun Beckie.

I’m sitting in my newly tidied living room. I normally hide in my room, so this is a big step for me. Tomorrow while I’m waiting for the gas check I’ll work at my easel and do some painting, which is in my living room.

Cacoethes 04-01-2018 10:19 PM

Thanks guys!
It is a boost!

That sounds so difficult nonperson.
You are not a failure at life, whatever you decide.

Sounds like a good plan Lorraine

nonperson 04-01-2018 10:57 PM

It must be nicer to spend more time in your living room, Lorraine. Especially now it's all tidy, maybe that'll help you spend more time out of your room. What're you painting on your easel?

Sketchy 04-01-2018 11:08 PM

I want to try spend less time in my room, so this helps. I’m painting some abstracts. Got a few paintings on the go. I need to update my artist blog. It’s been a while.

Buttons. 05-01-2018 06:56 AM

That sounds really positive Lorraine.

Morning all :) I am hopefully getting my laptop back today so I will be more able to be active :) turns out laptop on the floor wheels on a wheelchair slippy from rain not a good combination

Sketchy 05-01-2018 10:56 AM

Thanks Buttons. That’s good you are getting your laptop back.

Good morning everyone.

Cacoethes 05-01-2018 01:50 PM

Hey guys

Sketchy 05-01-2018 02:00 PM

Hey Beckie. How are you?

Cacoethes 05-01-2018 02:06 PM

Im ok thanks.
Cold!

How are you?

Sketchy 05-01-2018 02:10 PM

I’m ok too. Stuck inside waiting for the gas person to come check my boiler. I hate waiting in for things like that. I just wish they would get it over with.

Cacoethes 05-01-2018 02:15 PM

I know what you mean
Hope they turn up soon!

Buttons. 05-01-2018 03:43 PM

Hope the boiler sorts itself out Lorraine :)

Also feeling cold Beckie-jealous of dog she has fur :P

Cacoethes 05-01-2018 03:46 PM
