Morning All!
It's Monday! Again. 51st time this year
Yesterday: Busy Sunday morning, as per usual. Afternoon was difficult, struggled to sleep, then midway through the food coming in something went in my head. Not majorly but knew I was struggling. Late afternoon/early evening was a struggle but a bath and a quiet evening watching TV in bed did the trick.
Today: Not sure, will need to check if my weekly Monday am prayer meeting is on. L out delivering some presents. I need to turn the Transformers cupboard out to see if I can find my missing minibot Brawn.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

Morning All!
It's Tuesday. Christmas -3
Yesterday: Decent day, but over very quickly. Got a surprise when a toy I'd bought turned up with the weapon, not in the picture. Would have been a nice surprise if I hadn't paid out extra for the weapon from elsewhere! Found the missing Minibot Brawn - yay!
Awake at 5 this morning, cramp. I still miss the quinine sometimes :-(
Today: L taking her parents for Covid Jab 1 this evening. Not much planned. I think it's time to crack open the Christmas Specials on DVD. We had Poprridge: No Way Out off the iPlayer last night and I see the Yes Minister special Party Games is getting a rare airing on BBC4 tonight, catch it if you can it's superb.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

It involves a bottle of ketchup.....

Noticed of late that text isn't as sharp as it should be. Suspect some tweaking of the prescription may be required so booked the first test available (2nd Jan). Thank fuck I got paid for holidays I didn't use if this is required. Er, assuming opticians are allowed to be open then!
Usual pain condition that flared up with a vengeance a week ago is settling down. Still very painful but thankfully reduced down from the mind-staggering stage.

It's Wednesday. Christmas -2
Yesterday: Decent day again. Apart from the Ketchup all over the top incident, little to report. In Laws Covid jabs went OK.
Today: NOTHING planned! Hurrah! Nemesis Prime due from Smyths though :-)

Will it involve questions about buffing?

YES.
WE WERE DENIED SAUSAGE POKING.
I was quite upset about that.

And now it'll be all, "oh, oh, oh, but I don't have a sausage roll and I can't go to the shops because the queues go all the way to Hereford because France!"

Opted for late rather than early for the final stress free shop before Christmas. Tescopolis pretty empty, no queues at the tills. Christmas spending is done!

Morning All!
It's Thursday. Christmas Eve!
Yesterday: Decentish day again. Started *really* well - a friend sent me something I wasn't even sure existed that I wanted for the morning prayer meeting on Christmas Day - THANK YOU!!!!!! Nemesis Prinme showed up, Kingdom w1 (sans Beast Megatron) was dispatched. AN HOUR on the phone to BT trying to sort out a difficulty with my BTID was ...... trying, and I wasn't good for much after, but I can now access my BT account again and have grabbed 6 months of Britbox free..... only to find out the App isn't on the Now TV boxes (but UKTV play now *IS*) which then meant we had to wire the TV up to the internet and try it. Not found much worth paying for yet but 6 months free is six months free! The only downside was I was VERY wobbly, winter weather such fun.
On This Particular Thursday: Awake at 5. Small amount of the mobile tooth pain. But not much planned from me. Quiet Day all being well.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

I always have great difficulty logging in to BT and checking account. Their website is not user friendly!

Confusingly you have TWO BT accounts, one for BT Services (Your BTID) and one for BT Email. Both use the same email address. Both can be entered at any of the login points and it will bounce you to whichever bit is appropriate..... which is a problem if your password for both bits is the same or so similar that you forget the difference.

We've been poor at getting Christmas cards out to friends this year but I delivered a bunch around the neighborhood today. We have been getting to know (relatively) a number of our neighbours since March so seemed a good time to do it. Several cards back since and nice to put some more names to some of the faces we see around. Only at one letterbox did I fear for the safety of my fingers when something growled and clawed on the other side.
