Morning All!
Yesterday went well till the fall in the the garden, that did my head.
We also had a "forgetting which knee should go in the water" incident in the bath yesterday morning, which shows how relaxed I'd got about my leg!
Groceries due tonight and, all being well, some drugs at some point today.
Have a good day: stay safe, well and at home.

This week I hope to ween myself off compulsively checking the news constantly and make some headway in my reading pile (unless I am recalled to work as the minimum 3 week furlough period has expired).
I hope to have a better week physically as last week was bad. The Lockdown is affecting me physically and now mentally.

If they were wearing a lab coat they were probably a vet. Or trying to sell something on TV.

Spikey massage balls dispatched from Amazon. Yoga pads should be here on the 5th. These items are needed for new exercises suggested by Physio. Hopefully, then the daily pain can be reduced a bit until such time it is safe for 1-1 sessions again.
Also bought some shoes as the heels are coming off my current pair.

Emails from work. One says I can get the covid test booked by them if I am symtomatic but test area cannot be reached on foot, taxi or via public transport. Instructed to have a 'family member' drive me there...but if I had the symptoms it would not be safe for them to have me in their car due to underlying conditions. Therefore, if I get the symptoms it will be impossible to be tested. Madness.
The second work email suggested we are all drinking more in lockdown so was about safe drinking, units of alcohol, etc. Er. Um. What.

We banned Chess. Opens the door for the return of Fenric.
Dawn: look at week 17

Morning All!
Overall yesterday didn't go too bad - got drugs and food - but the food arrival shorted something in my head and because I was tired things went downhill from there. Should have gone to bed earlier.
Woken 5am by rain, got out of bed and immediately fell over. Going to be one of those days. I feel tired and achy already with the sinus/throat playing up and don't feel my head has got the stretch to deal coherently with knowing what's clean and what's not.
Pray head and body do better than I'm expecting to, that I stay upright and that I don't wash my hands too much - they hurt a bit this morning.
Hope you all ok, safe & well.

By family member I suspect they mean someone in your household not a random who hasn't been living with you.

Jen would not be able to. If I got symptoms she would have to isolate herself from me as she would then be at high risk.

Okay, so when I was little I LOVED the Bunny Cuddles picture stories in the Playhour magazine. This obscure comic was about a bunny who loved jam and his entire life was based around plots to eat more jam. Now I have some original artwork! (this is where jAaM was inspired) This is a good summary of my life during the lockdown. Do Bunny Cuddles & Armada Hot Shot exist in the same universe?

Morning All! Happy Wednesday!
Yesterday didn't go too bad.... unless you count my attempts to do lunch. Pate on Toast, 2 slices each, 3 people, must have washed my hands 6 times I kept losing confidence they were clean. But making little baby steps to a healthier attitude.
Started new drugs from Doctor yesterday which will help, won't see affects for a week or so yet
DPD due today with a new laptop with working webcam to double our capacity there. Finding I'm getting off to sleep early at the moment but also waking early c5am. Leg still healing well
Hope you're all safe & well out there.

PHIL HAS NECROMBUMPED!!! GUILTY! GUILTY! GUILTY! -The Ralphyard You fool. It was Knightbeat that did. And Phil has clearly then just mistaken this week thread for the current one. I declare Phil... innocent! And as ever it is the frequency and magnitude of your necrobumping that is objectionable, not restoration of an old thread itself. I declare you... guilty!

When an innocent mistake by Phil has arisen is he Guilty in the sense Ralph clearly desires above rational objectivity? Why it seems far more likely to me that Ralph put Knightbeat up to this in an effort to smear Phil's good name!

Online training and webinar endures from work over last two days. The thought of going back to that job has caused a tremendous spike in my pain levels, but I have no choice in the current environment. I could be recalled at any time.
