I’m good. I started my new office job this morning. After that I came home and took my son to pick up his new pair of shoes from the hospital. Then I did some paperwork and napped for a bit. How was your day? What did you do today? 

Tammyjane33

My days been ok thankyou. Aww that's great you've started a new job, congratulations. Hope it goes well. 

April2018mom

Thanks. I’ve been searching ever since last year so finally it has paid off ultimately. Thirteen months later and my search is over for now. 

Chloe_Scope

I am doing well thank you @Tammyjane33, how are you doing?

Congratulations on your job @April2018mom! This is amazing news!

What a great thread!! I’ve got a horrid tooth infection so feeling pretty rotten and not overly keen on the heat.
☀️ However it’s nice that the sun is out, it does make things look much pretty and make me generally feel more optimistic! Even if I hide away inside with a fan on 😂

How are you @Tammyjane33?

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you'll get better soon!

Hope the tooth infection will get sorted soon @Hart86.

I’ll be hiding from the pollen today, but I hope everybody else’s Wednesday is awesome.

I went strawberry picking today. I also ordered a new pair of shoes online. I also got a call from my local council to inform me that we are finally on the adoption waiting list. We have discussed this and we are happy to try looking after another physically impaired kid 0-5 years old. 

Hart86

Oooh what shoes @April2018mom?
That’s such a lovely thing to do, I’ve always thought about fostering but obviously not in a position to at the moment!
How many other children do you have? 

Hayfever is awful @adrian_scope hope you’re not suffering too bad!!

Petite shoes. I have 2 twins. One boy one girl. They are two years old now. 

Chloe_Scope

That's so lovely @April2018mom! I also have never been strawberry picking but would love to!

I believe it is high pollen again @Adrian_Scope! Hope you're doing okay!

Adrian_Scope

I’m fine @Chloe_Scope!

Hello on this sunny warm day. I'm suffering with my body at the moment. I have a rotten headache that has a pain going across my shoulder blazes, have had this for 10 days now.. it's a fibro flare...have no idea how long it's going to last...

Chloe_Scope

Hi @AlisonNetty, sorry to hear you're in a flare at the moment. I really hope it doesn't last much longer. How do you find the sunny weather?

AlisonNetty

I love it if only I could get out of bed...I'm stuck here for now..

Chloe_Scope

I'm sorry to hear that @AlisonNetty, do you have anything particular that you do on the days where you are stuck in bed?

AlisonNetty

I have a bed in the sitting room so I watch TV and sleep.

Chloe_Scope

I hope you are able to have a relaxing today and get the rest you need @AlisonNetty

I was prescribed with the oral antibiotic Augmentin for an abscess. After I got over constipation caused by taking handfuls of  Co-codamol for the agony, this is when the dread explosive and chronic diarrhoea started.

Awesome 😎 the sun is shining and I am enjoying the summer break from day life, my own personal summer break. Looking forward to another six months,  no groups, no job hunting, just focusing on my studies for my degree, my health and my hobbies. 

AlisonNetty

The sun is out. Its always nice to see the sun

Sorry to hear you have a toothache. Hope its headed up by now..

I had a lovely child free weekend away from home. I relaxed at a hotel with a spa and bonded with my partner. We played tennis and had nice food at the onsite restaurant. 

Tammyjane33

I'm so sorry to all  for the late reply. I've been quite unwell for two days and didn't receive notifications. I will get back to you all ASAP. I hope everyone is having a pain-free day.

Pretty fed up and down, thanks for asking. I hope you're ok @Tammyjane33

AlisonNetty

@WF2k Why are you feel so fed up. Hope ur feeling ok today. 
I've got to get some housework done. So that's what I'm doing today.

ellisael

Thank you so much for asking. I am feeling quite chirpy- which wasn't the case for last 5 days. Happy to have found this online community. 

[Deleted User]

@AlisonNetty I feel fed up pretty often, always anxious. everything and anything triggers my anxiety, even the most silly things that probably wouldn't bother someone else, I have mental and physical health problems which clash with each other. The assessor I had for PIP has made me feel a whole lot worse as well.

Thank you for asking.

seafaye

just found this thread, what a great idea,  I hope we can all be open enough to say if we are not having the best of days, sometimes just sharing with people can make things easier 

GettinOlde

Frustrated with it being one of those days when nothing goes right. 😞

pcoventry

I finally got my news of my PIP today - it\s been a stressful 15 weeks but I am over it now - it's made my week as I was told it would be another 6 weeks still!

[Deleted User]

@pcoventry is that how long you've been waiting to hear about the decision?

pcoventry

hi @WF2k Made the call 16th of March -sent form off for next day special delivery and it got there on the 23rd March  - f2F at home 20th May - they got the report 7th of June and I  got the decision 3rd of July -

I was told last Friday it could be anywhere up to the 16th of August due to the backlog. I don't think the amount I am getting is right- it's off a bit but I am not going to complain. I am hoping the letter comes through next week so I can apply for road tax and other stuff.  It's only thankful to PIP I can afford road tax - my car is £325 a year! and has been off the road for 3 months but just had an MOT so worth running for a year. 

[Deleted User]

@pcoventry my form was sent back at the beginning of December 2018, I had the assessment 4th of April 2019, it took the assessor 3 weeks to send the report to the DWP and it was only sent when the DWP requested it, I then got a text the day after to day they had gotten the report which was the 24th of April and I've been waiting since.

I hope you hear back soon!

I danced today. Then I went out for lunch with friends in town. I take informal adult dancing classes.

I tried to learn the Highland Fling once, but 'haggis' I didn't impress anyone after being flung out.
