    I discovered this week I have a niece that is old enough to have a job.. how did that happen! I should not be old enough to have a niece that is old enough to have a job.

      I am quite shocked to think I'm old enough to be a GREAT Grandma

    Turned off my storage heaters yesterday to "save money" and now my flat is like an ice cube. Past GBG fail.

      Buy a little fan heater.  They're brilliant at warming a room up quickly

    Fancy a different way to relax?  Try taking in "Dinner Jazz"  on Jazz fm weekday evenings. It's incredibly soothing ....

      In this instance I'd rather poke myself with a sharp needle.  I'll leave you with your Dinner Jazz and skip straight to dinner :lol:

      I love most music but Jazz is one genre guaranteed to wrangle my nerves :lol:

    Spreading my thinking net too wide - I need to keep it simple and beneficial, and ignore everything else.

    1. Caramoole

      Caramoole

      On the right track.....Don't over-think it.  OCD will always be willing to indulge over-thinking....keep doing, bat the thinking away and mop the kitchen floor again, it will gain more Smartie points with the Missus and more benefits held in reserve for you :) 

      "I have the knowledge & if I can just work this out using that knowledge", seems logical and tempting.....in OCD's World it's tempting to get pulled down that track.....Don't debate....keep doing, keep mopping....ignore that oh so tempting logic.  

      We're at about the worst stage of the "Lack of daylight Phase".....Spring and sunshine are around the corner....hang in there....you'll improve fairly soon, as will I.  Difficult time of year :(

    Is it raining up north?  Glorious scorching weather down here in the south today.

    1. Caramoole

      Caramoole

      It was scorching hot all day until it became spookily pitch black like night, very early evening....then we had the most marvelous storm that lasted about 1.5 hours, amazing fork lighting that illuminated everywhere.  I heard a crash on the building next to us that sounded like an earthquake, don't know if it got struck but we were in the eye of the storm.....it was wonderful :a1_cheesygrin:

    What a week, phew

    Tuesday was the physio

    Wednesday was the psychologist

    Thursday was the nutritionist 

    Friday was the lady from HUTS, a befriending service. 

    Its nice having people come and go.

      We've talked about it before, change your sleeping pattern to a more normal one that's roughly in sync with the rest of the world

     I want to eat! Just one ice cream, please!!

    1. Caramoole

      Caramoole

      Personally, I'd say when you're driven to eat like that, resist.....a bit like resisting a compulsion.  When you're not that bothered, have one....occassionally.  Just not all the time

    Over two months without cream cakes. 

    Is malt loaf and fruit loaf OK?

    1. Caramoole

      Yes, that's right

      Maybe I am mistaking my count

      Yes, you are mistaking your count.  95 calories in a single portion slice, not a loaf.

    The most painful thing in the world is watching people be normal, when you can't be

    1. Caramoole

      Caramoole

      But you can be.  It may be painful, the process may be protracted and difficult but you can.  "Can't" is a definition that prevents the process

      Is she getting taken out enough? It sounds as though she's not totally house trained as she's done this a few times.

    Help!

    1. Caramoole

      You have to budget Phili. We've talked about this a lot in the past.....about steadily saving a contingency fund so that when unexpected things (like vet bills) happen, you don't find yourself in dire straits

    I wake up this morning and Victoria Wood has died, check at lunchtime and WWE Chyna has died, check at tea time and Prince has died. What the heck is going on?

      "Beat me on the bottom with the Womans Weekly".....wonderful line, always makes me smile. A life well-lived that has left her footprint indelibly imprinted. What better legacy? RIP

    It's not so bad, my dear little friend Think of it as a begining and not an end - You will be with Mum again and Bonzo and Silver and there will be new friends - Victor and Brandy and Bonzo 1 - Sooty and Holly, Sophie and Eevie, the first black one. There will be Nan and grandads two, mum will make sure they are waiting for you - I cry not for where you go but that I cannot come, be brave my friend, my little one and say hello to Mum.
