Monday tlc

Still not feeling too brilliant, so am not feeling too enthusiastic about Monday. Plus, big storms over the last few nights = not much sleep for anybody. Even the cats are little zombies this morning.

tlc for me:

* get hair cut
* see dietitian
* go to shops and get basics
* drink water
* make bed (if the cats ever wake up: I don't have the heart to disturb them now)
* shower and dress
* exercise OR stretch


Try very hard to:

* get front room tidy by 2pm
* do the dishes, because I was too tired and sore to do them yesterday
* try to get the rest of the house looking tidier by bed-time
* book bone scan
* unclench jaw
* move & think restfully


I was zonked yesterday, so my tlc for Sunday was to not commit myself to anything in a tlc thread, but if someone else wants to start a Sunday tlc, feel free.

* see dietitian - she didn't turn up (grrrrr)
* drink water - doing
* make bed - yes
* shower and dress - yes

* get front room tidy by 2pm - yes
* do the dishes, because I was too tired and sore to do them yesterday - almost all of them
* try to get the rest of the house looking tidier by bed-time - doing

Big hugs to you, Choc. It's horrible when that happens, isn't it?

my TLC of the day is to thank you for trying the help the rest of us!

Aaaaw, thanks, mdf. That's really nice of you.

Hey, if you ask me, accidents can happen for no reason whatsoever, just to wreck your morning. My 2c is that you should enjoy that cake and just blame life for your gut . (Mmmm, cake).

Woohoo on the pred! I'm doing a happy dance right along with you?

Guess what, I'm still here, at least partly because I have a nice little fan heater near my feet.

Ivy the wuss.

*sniff* Now I'm teary (truly). Thanks so much.

I've put 19 things away, and am shivering. It really is cold out there.

Can't do that while walking around, but I think a shawl & beanie might be the go. Brrrrrrrr.

Have put away another 33 things.

LOL. A newly-arrived British man helps with our gardening here. *We* complain about the cold; *he* is still walking around in shorts, oblivious. You lot are *tough*.

Have been in dressing gown & flannies for hours...

Have done about half the dishes.

Hope you got some good rest and warmed up Ivy.

Today:
tour possible preschool for daughter -- done
scrubbed kitchen sink-- done
eat breakfast -- done
relax in the bath
eat a proper lunch
dr appt
tidy down stairs
medical paperwork
stay hydrated -- failing on this so far
return library books
pick up rest of Rx

Still feeling off. Was sick Friday and some of the weekend. Got the Dtap vaccine Saturday and ended up achy with a fever yesterday. Still needed Tylenol this morning. Seriously had that flu hit by a truck feeling. Only had a vax reaction one other time and my Crohn's was flaring then. Hope that's not the case now. I have the starving but the thought of actually eating something makes me want to puke feeling. Have to buy a few cases of Ensure to get me through. I'm all out.

Ivy, can you send me some cold please? It's about 90 here and I can't function outside because of the heat....where is the lawn boy when you need him?

Today I have:
started laundry

And will:
finish the 2 loads and put all of it away
go grocery shopping
try to cut the backyard (though it's been rainy here and I don't know if I can do it until tomorrow evening)
vaccuum bedroom
steam mop bathroom

Was the preschool any good, Inflamed?

What's the Dtap vaccine for? I'm really sorry it affected you so badly. My heart goes out to you, battling through while feeling so terrible. You're doing a wonderful job there.

Becky, what sort of steam mop do you have? I'm thinking of getting one myself one day, and am looking for recommendations.

Good luck with your infusion, Choc.

I did a few more dishes after I signed off last night, so don't have too much to do this morning, which is good. And it's not quite so cold, either, which is great too.

On to Tuesday!!

Ivy.
