    Thank You all for your kind words, I’ve never thought about a Bichon 🤔 will have to look into that for sure. One breed I’ve contemplated as well is a Corgi, there is something special about them, I also have a memory from childhood that my late Grandma and Grandad used to have one.

    I’m just glad the old drain cleaner has sorted out the all the drains, especially the foul smelling shower drain.

    I’ve just cleaned the kitchen and sorted out the recycling to sling it out tomorrow morning. Before I turn my stairs into a bob sled run with the barrels on cardboard with me on my stair lift. Somehow managed to stretch 500ml of clear varnish to two barrels, will spray them with a good dose of spray lacquer tomorrow. Done a fair bit today, I’m still 50/50 about going watching a film on Friday. It’s times like this that the silence in the flat bites its hardest.

    I’ve just sent an email to an advocacy place in Derby and just reading through and editing what I had sent to another out of town advocacy place, has really dropped my mood through the floor big time. Just honestly feel shocking, going to take myself off to bed soon and sit up watching something on the iPad.

    I’m just gonna say goodnight to everyone and will see you over the coming days.

    My computer is saying its 10 degrees outside at the moment, I don't know how true that is as its freezing in my room.

    Thinking of you Catherine. It's hard, especially at this time of year. I had Natalie-Tiffany in hospital on Sunday night/breathing difficulties (I'll DM you separately on that 🫠😊). But at least Snicket's recovered. Both bradycephalic breeds but not had breathing issues before which is scary, especially for her. I hope you're ok xx

    Roll on spring already, we've got dreaded Jan and Feb coming up which always has the worst weather.

    Morning All,

    had a decentish nights sleep with 9 hours of kip, but I’m feeling absolutely exhausted beyond belief! I just want to go back to bed and sleep. But have a meeting with an area coordinator at 2.

    Hi everyone, it definitely doesn't feel as cold today but I've still got my thick hoodie on!

    How are you feeling about your meeting @Zippy1983?

    Nervous but optimistic, had a few meetings so far and things are going ok.
    I am pushing myself to get out more, watching Zootopia 2 tomorrow. I have two events to look forward to in March, The Dubliners Encore here in Derby. Then The UK Rock Show in Stafford, already have a B&B booked with a downstairs room, going to stay a couple of nights. Will do me the world of good.

    That all sounds great @Zippy1983! I hope the meeting goes well. You've got loads to look forward to, I'd love to go away for a night on my own but I've always felt too nervous.

    I must admit I’m nervous about heading away for a few nights as it is going to be my first time away alone for over 7 years since my last camping and hiking trip. If I can keep doing this sort of thing alongside heading out into town to the cinema, it will carry on building my confidence to enable me to feel comfortable travelling to Antalya on my own for a few weeks in 2027.

    Meeting went well, I would say working with the Area Coordinator is having a positive impact on me and the situation I’m in.

    So glad the meeting went well! You're doing the right thing by building yourself up to your Antalya trip. Things will get easier and easier the more you do. Have you been to Antalya before? I must admit since covid I've been scared to go abroad because it's been so long since I last went.

    I’ve not been to Antalya, however I have been further down the coast to Olu Deniz on two separate occasions. I like the culture, the people and the environment in Turkey.

    Booked to go and watch a Swedish Heavy Metal Band called Avatar in February. Last watched them in 2018, cracking band and one I have been wanting to watch again for quite awhile. Already have the Hotel sorted out, always been a lover of many genres of music.
