Oh, that’s a chomp.
Hope your liebe is doing ok. Years ago, after some very bad news, my doc told me to have some time outside in nature. I very sceptically laid on a towel in the backyard, which actually seemed to help. Maybe a walk or some time outside might help?
Thank you. It definitely reminded me that I’m probably not great at self defence if it came to the crunch, lol.
The local shops usually aren’t too bad during the day, but less ok after 6 or so at night when there aren’t many people around. When I lived in the area, the smith street woolies had a similar vibe to Preston - it definitely made shopping there an experience.
Thanks… feeling better now
Posting this to debrief so will prob delete in a bit. I was just at the local shops, and jogged slightly crossing the road as the walk lights charged to orange.
As I got to the other side, this aggro-looking man held his hand up (middle ‘FU’ finger up) right in my face so I had to dodge my head back, and kept it in my face as I went around him. He continued glaring aggressively as I went past and away down the street.
Have never seen him before, and no idea what that was about. There are always people begging at the shops and some seem to have mental health issues, but I’ve never felt actually threatened in the 10+ years I’ve been here. He was very likely methylated or something, too (not that that’s an excuse).
I’m fine (and am usually tougher than this), and I know it’s very minor in the scheme of things, but am feeling upset and yuck right now.
Hope it goes ok…I know how hard it can be, as I went through this with my mum and OH did with his, too. MOL (mother-out-law) had emergency services break in one time when she collapsed and was unresponsive. Lucky the cleaner found her in time.
It was also very lucky that neither of them injured anyone (or themselves) by driving when no longer competent.
I’m going to come over all mother-y here, but be careful!
I don’t even know who’s running. Go!
Punk pigeons! They also squeak when they fly, which is very entertaining
Am aiming for the same thing, albeit on a much smaller scale. Weeds have gone off lately
Aiming to get the housework done today so I can relax for the next 2 days, and it’s a struggle getting motivated to start.
Have gone to pub for lunch with OH. That’ll help, won’t it?
Very impressive!
9/12 with a couple of lucky guesses
Pausing from painting for a snack break, saw those and thought yum
That’s better, ta!

These cgi horses are doing my head in 😂
Cheers! 🍻
Was also going to say closer. It’s…um…direct!
You’re totally right about the reality check - usually I’m on the ball but was a bit distracted today, which I’m sure didn’t help.
I also know what you mean re the monk situation. I’ve definitely had a few instances where in hindsight it’s been, why the f did I fall for that?! Scammers know how to get past people’s defences.
