If I buy them all in one place is someone going to attempt an intervention?
That was meant to be me retracting from just assuming the ambulance was there for the older person. Instead I assumed it was there for someone who needs a mobility aid. ๐คฆโโ๏ธ Obv it could be anyone in the house.
26.02.2026 17:54 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Noโฆ but heโs been in there since Iโve lived here so thatโs two years. Most likely more.
Ambo could be there for anyone though. One of the kids gets about on a mobility scooter so might not even be the older guy.
Iโm sure itโs nothing ๐ฌ

26.02.2026 12:19 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0My shoulder is still crumbling this morning. Because I slept weird to accommodate the shoulder my right hip is also hurting. The whole right side of my face hurts from the stupid tooth and I have a sore throat.
I canโt keep taking days off work but I am also so tired. Endlessly tired.
CW: generalised moaning
How do I stop feeling ill?
Went to bed last night relatively fine then my brain wouldnโt shut up, my shoulder dislocated and a wisdom tooth which has been out for years decided to have a growth spurt.

The no caffeine is dreadful. What do you mean no tea?! ๐ญ
Iโm not splurging on Decaffe tea lol. Iโve been having hot honey, ginger and lemon as my hot drink with it.

or have a mint before? Or brush your teeth? Bodies are so dumb sometimes. Hopefully youโll find a solution!
Thank you. If the tabs donโt work this time I may have to go back on my point blank refusal to have an infusion ๐
Can you melt a Barocca in it? ๐ซฃ
Iโve not had liquid iron before. What about a drop of vanilla essence or minty flavour? Not sure if it would interfere with it working or not though.
Iโve just gone back on my iron tablets. Hellish stuff.

Iโm making a point of recognising what triggers my anxiety.
Just had a first meeting with a customer Iโve not met before - pretty chill.
Came out of that meeting to an invite to an in person conference in May - instant tummy flip.

His cover will also ignore my email so Iโm honesty not sure why I sent it to either of themโฆ

Got an OOO which reads -

Like it.
Few weeks ago I was worried my role might get made redundant because not many customers were signing up to the service.
Guy who looks after 54 customers using a different product is leaving (suddenly) on Thursday.
Guess who is being asked to pick them up?
Worries be gone!
Workload be crazy!
Hospital letters are one the worst things that seem to be delayed by the Royal Mail issues.
Might be worth trying to call the dept your appt is with to ask them just in case a letter appears after the appointment. ๐ฌ
Flapjacks were one of the things I would regularly โdropโ when I worked in the bakery so, oh no, they couldnโt go on the shelf. But we canโt throw them away! *crumb covered mouth*
