God, @TAB I don't know how you put up with all this. Well i guess you better get the joint checked out. You always have a good disposition even though you might be going through difficulties. I'm a bit the same. My thyroid was playing up last week but its stabilised since yesterday. Was feeling awful last week but since yesterday a lot better. I dunno

Yes you would @TAB just take it gently today. Thats what I'm doing - just taking a break for now as we have a astrological Yod in the skies which is a bit difficult for those allready feeling sensitized. I just read about this Yod now but it was posted to my e-mails on Sunday. Its ok to prioritise self care

Just threw out recyclables @TAB my kitchen is almost free of mess. The recycle bin was full. Got to post my council vote for the local elections. One of the nominees was a psych nurse. I voted for her around the top. She wants to address mental health in the community which is good. Voted for an accountant at the top as we had financial corruption in our previous council.
I guess i made my vote count but our council went into administration for several years after what went wrong previously. All kinds of dreadful things going on for years. i'm just hoping something might change but i'm not holding my breath lol
ok off to post vote now

Hi friend!! @SmilingGecko
Oh yes thank you for the reminder I have to fill that out and get it posted off tomorrow!!
Yes isn't the sun lovely? I may not be a fan of summer but springtime sunshine is my fav!
Ach, ain't that just the way with household stuff? Hopefully it will mean that later you can feel very satisfied and kick back in a nice sparkly space!! Hope it goes smooth 😉

Oh I know the feeling @TAB I have had stuff where I get to a point where if one more test comes back 'all clean' I'd have screamed. And then I've had a doctor tell me I have health anxiety since I wasn't happy about getting the negative result. Like... if my bill of health is all clean, why do I have all these pains and weird bodily sensations going on? Is this just supposed to be what it feels like to inhabit a body? Doesn't seem right. You really do have to fight to be heard sometimes.
