How is your day going?

I think sleeping in another room might help @Albus_Scope,if it's no better it certainly won't be any worse.

Evening... Very cold room. 12 degrees.. I feel better outside than at home.. I don't feel as cold when I am walking around outside but I feel really cold I when I am at home.. tomorrow will be a better day hopefully... But very hard to keep going everyday. It is really a torture.

Hopefully you are all ok so far

I'm frozen to the core

Ive felt cold for the last three weeks, even with my heating on. The only place I seem to feel warmer is in bed but that's not a good idea in terms of my disabilities if it's for more than six hours.

I'm not going to bed until the early hours then i get up early for my carer arriving. I have sleeping tablets that make me have a few hours deep sleep but that's about it.

Im fairly new to the sight but I've realised that alot of people have the same problem with not sleeping well.

Good morning everyone, the dull weather seems to have lifted this morning, when it's foggy and really dull, it makes me feel worse, im happy it's lighter this morning.

Ive been told by UC that we qualified for a cold weather payment for £25 at least its something.

I'm sorry that some of you are feeling unwell, nasty cough cold virus doing the rounds, we have had it a few times last 3 months, we seem to keep passing it on to each other. It's really contagious and for a good while. Try to keep surfaces etc clean, I use the antibacterial floor wipes. Drink plenty of fluids and rest, hopefully you feel better soon.

Morning @Elvisdog

Elvisdog

@Sandy_123 good morning to you, hope you have a lovely day.

Sandy_123

Thankyou, you too, January is such a gloomy month and it feels like it's dragging on

Elvisdog

@Sandy_123 Ii know it feels like today is the first time in ages that it isn't grey and dull. It makes a big difference to my mood for the day, which is good as I have to plough through loads of washing, my eldest changed his sheets and he has loads of covers that takes 3 loads, I tried a weighted blanket but he didn't get on with it. I wouldn't mind but he then opens his windows wide and puts his fan on, lol it's something his done for years.
