I rolled over on one in my sleep (and in my own bed, too, lol). I was 14, it was like 2am, and I ended up having to get my dad to get into the meds cabinet because I couldn't see (yay myopia). My dad insisted I had imagined the whole thing, used the antihistamine spray anyway, and by the time I was awake again at 8am my knee had started to swell. Dad then insisted I must've reacted to the antihistamine spray 😆 spent 3-4 days with my knee burning so badly you could feel it through my clothes AND about three times its normal size.

Bees, great. Wasps can be someone else's problem lol.

We are having an outing to the theatre for an Abba tribute band. First I bougt small size tights and think I need medium. They are starting to bug me already. One time of day I would have had a few drinks and taken them off but thats not an option tonight. I feel fat and bloated in my dress (a morrisons nutmeg one I took a liking to last week) even though its a loose fitting one. I've put a bit of make up on and hoping it sticks to my face!

I love ABBA. Once you start singing you won’t care your tights are too small lol. Have a great evening.

Oooo that’s nasty …. you obviously reacted badly to that wasp sting …..should you have an epipen just in case ?
Often the second time you are stung it could be really worse
 
Honestly it was 20 years ago (literally 20 years last month actually lol) and there's nothing on my medical notes about it. And of course at stupid o'clock in the morning so it's doubtful either of my parents even remember it. But I do my best to avoid wasps because if it got me on the chest/neck/face and I have a repeat of last time, I'm in trouble. So someone else can deal with the wasps, lol.

Funny story. Last year when I was still at the old flat I was on the toilet one day (IBS again) and I had my elbow leaning on the sink, because it was comfortable and y'know, right there. And I felt something crawling on the elbow thinking, bloody flies. Then had this momentary panic it was a spider so I looked.

Feckin' wasp. I've never bolted off a toilet so quick in my life. Thankfully it was a bit stupid and I managed to get it on a piece of card from a box or something and then just...threw the card out the window and hoped nobody was standing in that general area outside.
 
Phew thank goodness you have lightening speed reactions to wasps - I think they get dozy when they come indoors.
They are natures scavengers and get rid of everything rotten/rotting - as long as they stay outdoors …….
 
I think it was coming towards the end of the summer, perhaps even into September, so it was a bit dozy. Like the one that fell into my bed. And then fell out of my bed and it took days before I found where it chose to die. Which is the other problem, how do you convince someone you got stung by a wasp in your bed, while asleep, when nobody can find the wasp afterwards?
 
It was under the bedside cabinet, so it hadn't gone too far. I probably flung it there when I flung the quilt off me, then I pulled the sting out, then realised I had no idea what I was doing and banged on my parents bedroom door lol. "Daaaaaaaaad." Props to my mum who also woke up then went, "Nah it's you he wants, I'm going back to sleep."

We women are frequently our own worst critics/enemies, especially where looks are concerned. I gave up worrying what other people think about my clothes years ago, so long as they are comfortable etc that's all that matters. Enjoy the show, that's what it's all about - it sounds fun

The show was brilliant and I coped with the tights. Don't think I pulled them up enough from the bottom to start with. I've had a busy weekend with outings and catching up with people and feel "heavy" so I'm starting new tomorrow. Lots more water, healthier food choices - simple things that will hopefully lead to a little bit of weight loss (I definitely need it!)

Had a voucher to spend so popped into town. Was nice and quiet but couldn't find anything I liked really. Every year I buy myself a new jumper but couldn't find one in the shops I tried that I liked enough or that actually fit me like I wanted it to. Went to look in New Look for jeans and no sizes for me and I couldn't even order any as have none in. Why do I have to have super short legs!
 
I’m glad you had a great time ! ( and the tights were ok!)
I get fed up when there are no clothes I like or will fit….hopefully you’ll find something soon
Good luck with your choices 🥰
 
I'm an idiot.

I was vaping earlier when I was like, "that tastes weird." Coil's on its way out, new coil time! Now, most of my coils are in my desk drawer. The boxes I'm currently using are in a basket. It's a weird system, but it works. Til it doesn't. I found the open box, but it only had one coil left in it, so I went to fish out the unopened box I knew I had and...couldn't find it. Could find every other coil I had but not this one, not til I pulled everything out of the drawer.
Found the box, realised I could probably do with sorting out the drawer again, it had been a while. And since I'd stacked things into order when pulling them out, I could just put them back in the drawer in order again. Right? But that's not as easy as it sounds.

Eventually it's done, I sigh, and I reflexively pick up the vape again and hit it before I remember wait, no, needs a new coil. Wait. That tasted fine. Tried again. Still tasted fine.

There's sod all wrong with the coil, all I was tasting was the previous juice used with it, that can take a few puffs to clear.

Well, I guess at least the drawer got sorted out. :doh:
 
I appear to have had an absence again, first one for some time. It's not epilepsy, I'm not even sure it could count as a non-epileptic fit, but it's thrown everything off this morning. First I woke up Thursday morning, then 6am Thursday morning, then 6am this morning, then I plugged my phone on to charge, then it's 2pm today, then 8am today, then 11am today, then 9.30am today, plus there's spiders on a wall in my bedroom that doesn't actually exist, but then I woke up, but then another spider on a non-existent wall...then I woke up again.

Everything's so...disorientating. I'm meant to have a visit this afternoon. I might just text and say not to come because I've a migraine, no point mentioning it's an absence because that panics them too much and I'm not dealing with someone else's panic today when I don't have to. Argh. It's been months, why now?!
 
Gosh I’m sorry that’s happening Lorcan - you must do what’s right for you.
You don’t need anyone elses panic/ worry …..but as long as you’re able to cope.
 
They're not unusual for me anyway, the disorientation was wild, though. It's been a long time since that's hit so hard, although it's finally levelling off again (thankfully). I definitely don't recommend it, heh.
 
You have so much to cope with and you’re not smoking ! I’m glad it’s levelling off tho ! Take care 🥰
 
it is 5 to 3 in the morning. I've just been off the phone with on call GP, like literally just, with them saying I need to take a call from the Infirmary in the morning to arrange blood tests since getting them done at the GP surgery isn't likely to happen soon enough. So I need to make sure I take that call as they probably won't leave a message or ring again and getting through to them via the switchboard is going to be next to impossible. Oh, and they'll probably call at 8am.

And I put the wrong juice into the wrong device because I wasn't paying attention.
 
I have this friend who is very close to me and I love her. But she can be extremely hypocritical about things. For example, when my other friend was using her Google acc for awhile, she got mad and told her to stop it. But she herself did that with my acc and she thought it was fine. She has done this so many times that it’s just unacceptable. I want to tell her off so bad but I can’t. She’s always there for me, but lately she’s just been getting on my nerves. I rlly don’t know what to do with her.
 
I am so upset right now. I was looking for fleece and patterns for piggy hides and stuff when I found an awful website! It wasn't a dirty one, but a horrible horrible thing. I wish I could report it somewhere, but I don't even know who I would contact. In all honesty it is probably legal which is really sad. 😢
 
Sometimes I annoy myself greatly.

So it turns out the Pets@Home AND the main hay order might both turn up tomorrow. Which sucks. A bit. But then if the hay's awful as I find boxed hay tends to be it's not a huge waste, plus I bought another bag of pellets AND a storage container for said pellets rather than bags. Which means I could put the Science Selective in there too, because they don't have a sealable bag.

But then I bought large plastic bins off Amazon to try and keep the amount of "boxes" being stored down, specifically for hay. Will they be big enough? No idea. But it means some could be stored downstairs which is no bad thing.

Three loads of washing. One of mine, one for the pigs, then "oh crap I need a shower and I don't have a towel" because he used it to mop up the excess water when the internals of my toilet cistern were replaced today. I told him he could, that's on me, but okay, stick another load on right? Geez but that thing makes noise. And THEN someone annoyed me on Monday about "letting the house go" and apparently I didn't like this very much so I decided to do a remodelling in the lounge. FIND EVERYTHING SOMEWHERE ELSE TO GO. I hate myself for this part because I do not have the energy for any of this lol. But it's started, has to be finished, and so far there's been no sign of Ser Spider, or Wall Spider, or indeed any spider that isn't the cellar spider on my ceiling. But it's okay, they've been there for a bit minding their own business.

Argh what have I started.
 
Take it easy Lorcan ….you’ve not been well this week …..
 
If nobody hears from me tomorrow I've murdered someone at DPD. Probably the driver who couldn't be bothered trying to actually find my address again today and now I'm out 11kg of hay til tomorrow. I can't keep feeding them oat hay like this.
 
Bryce stopped eating on Saturday and was slobbering, so we think it's dental problem. He lost around 50g overnight. Phoned Cat&Rabbit and Simon and Kim are off until next week. :hb: Phoned Ellie Whitehead and she is off until November. :hb: We have no choice but to take him later to our local vets in Ruthin and hope that they do good with it at least. 😔🤞🤞
 
You know what I hate most about living alone? Having a fit and having to piece together various bits of broken memory afterwards to try and work out what happened. I am in an incredible amount of pain today, and while I've been working on the living room and cleaning out the goblin cage, none of that should be causing this much pain. Now I'm 95% adamant I had another fit sometime the early hours of Sunday morning, and maybe that's the cause? Except I don't know because the only person to witness it was me, and it was a fit. I'm never gonna remember that.

Sigh. So long without one and then two this week.
