My couch will have separation anxiety on Monday.☺️

The glitch is a total pain Auto.

One of the things that I really hate about lockdown is the silence outside at night , I like to hear traffic when I go outside but its eerily quiet , it just doesn't seem right. I have to say the covid numbers are very worrying now, I'd stopped listening to them recently but it was very serious tonight, I just make sure myself, my kids and my parents stay safe but even at that I'd be concerned now if anyone needs to go to a hospital. I'd say they're going to announce stricter rules, not sure what they might be tbh.

That was my fear back in March, what happens if you needed A&E etc.

I'm dubious schools will be back on the 11th. I feel for exam years. I remember 6th year and everyone was knackered, so this extra stress is far from helpful, especially as 5th year was a write off.

I also feel for 1st year college, all the parties they are missing etc. It really is a balls.

Night owl gal · 02-01-2021 12:52am

kinda concerned with the high numbers of covid cases in the last few days, I'd say stricter measures will be put in place as one poster said, and when I go back to work next week, I'll be asked to wear masks

We have had to wear masks in work since mid November. Never thought I would get used to it but you do. Something lovely about getting into the car in the evening and just whipping it off!!!

Ahh ok, it is a lovely feeling taking it off after being in a shop, will see what happens next week. Only my *co-workers wear masks at the moment

Witchie · 02-01-2021 2:37am

I decided tonight to take a hot water bottle to bed for the first time in years. Can barely handle this cold weather.

Anyway, decided to be clever and wrapped my pjs in it to warm them too. Put it in the bed and headed to the bathroom. Cleaned my teeth and face and came back into my bedroom. Put on my pjs and pulled back the duvet to discover first pair of pjs wrapped around the hot water bottle.

Yes, I think I am officially old and doddery.

But hey, I also got proposed to today. Had to turn him down though coz he wants kids and I don't want any more oh and he's a strict Muslim who doesn't like me drinking. It's why we broke up almost 4 years ago and are just friends. Still, was
nice to start the year off with a hot, Turkish Pep Guardiola look a like declaring his love.

Gremlinertia · 02-01-2021 2:58am

A proposal?? Happy new year eh?.

Good to hear from you Witchie

smurfjed · 02-01-2021 3:41am

Hey Witchie, great to see you back in here, take are of yourself and stay away from strange men

smurfjed · 02-01-2021 3:42am

12 days go so fast, Nespresso then off to the airport and back to work. No idea how long this rotation shall be, best estimates 48 days ish. But as we will be vaccinated on the 15th, this may change.

Mutt has gone for a walk, he won’t be impressed to find me gone when he gets back.

Gremlinertia · 02-01-2021 3:45am

You're sneaking out on mutt?? That time did seem to go awful fast though..

It's actually me that needs his. He has a Malaysian permanent resident visa and offered to marry me before so I could stay. He has the option of moving to Ireland already thanks to his business but it's too cold here for him. But he did say he would move here for me.

I am very wary of passport seekers. But if I can get the visa I want, I am a bit more amenable to the notion!

Actually have a weekend off, but nothing to do with it!
So, will take it easy I guess, get the shopping in for the new healthy eating regime, starts Monday.

Gremlinertia · 02-01-2021 8:52am

Skating around, glad I brought my studs for the stomp later.

Morning all

Mutt won’t be happy when he gets home Smurf, I hope you left him loads of treats

Good to see you Witche

It’s a cool one here so far and I must venture out in it to do some shopping, food just seems to disappear

Graces7 · 02-01-2021 3:40pm

02-01-2021 4:19pm

I suppose I should get up

he was back before I left so was able to give me dirty looks. Wife has banned him from human made treats, she now only gives him frozen chicken feet, gotta admit that he looks healthier and lighter these days.

I feel beyond virtuous, I went for my first proper walk in about 3 weeks and it was lovely but omg the rubbish. I went through a lovely off road route by a stream, it's a bit secluded so I only do it if I see others ahead of me, the stream is packed with cans, bottles etc. It's a shame and its regularly cleaned by the locals but there must be some serious partying going on there atm. There are bunches of daffodils on one side , all fully grown and will be gorgeous when they eventually bloom .
My Fitbit which probably presumed I was comatose recently is back in full fitness mode and might be f*ed out the window soon I did just under 10k steps and it's poking (ooh matron) me since , I will walk to the shop now just to shut it up, annoying little git of a thing.

Tonight feels like my last real holiday night, will have to set alarm again tomorrow night and for the week so I'm intending on indulging later in food / drink and staying up late , I'll be like a serpent again tomorrow night and I'm already worried about the icy roads next week...wherefore art thou lotto God and why have you forsaken Duvet. ðŸ˜‚

I feel that way too sometimes on this thread Grace. I didn't used to but a lot of the people I used to have the craic with have stopped posting. If you have a different view point or don't take part in some of the common discourse then its easy to feel left out. That's why I don't post here as much any more.

Night owl gal · 02-01-2021 4:57pm

Couchside, am not up very long myself

Gonna do some admin for the afternoon, I recently changed email providers (from Hotmail and Gmail) so I'm forwarding all my old emails to my Gmail address

Nice to see you back Witche:)

Autosport · 02-01-2021 5:12pm

I’m still the same as ever

Which can be a blessing or a Torment

My local forest car park was and still is full, cars parked everywhere, wouldn’t think there was a lockdown happening

Just back from the shop, decided to put my money where my mouth is and bought a quickpick with plus for tonight, 6e!! I never do the Irish one always the euromillions which is 3.50 , if I don't win big there will be trouble. ðŸ˜‚

There’s some amazing pink clouds over Wales!
I’m clearing up after an early dinner and going to have a drink with some pals over Zoom.
Call is at 7, but I'm a bit thirsty now, so might have a pre-drinks drink!

02-01-2021 7:01pm

I'm doing a make up cull. Got some new stuff for christmas and I just have too much. Sure where would I be wearing it to anyway, with the way things are?? So...goodbye old friends!

Listening to spotify, my most listened to music of 2020. It's very random. One minute it's playing Norah Jones, the next Rage Against the Machine. I don't know what mood to be in!

Gremlinertia · 02-01-2021 7:33pm

Supposedly women should do that frequently because make up harbours bacteria. Especially mascara they say.
It's a good habit to get into regularly washing your brushes and sponges too, and tanning mitts.

Yup very true PM! I'm very particular about mascaras and lip stuff and replace them really regulary. I'm bad with eye shadow palettes though. They're just so expensive!! But I do clean my brushes all the time. I actually quite like doing it. It's really satisfying. So I'm always applying my eyeshadow with a clean brush and keep the palette itself clean and always closed, never lying open. In saying that I'm after throwing out two insanely expensive palettes cause I just don't wear them and I've had them a good while. And truthfully I'm just not that bothered with that level of make up these days.

I'd say there are very little buying lipsticks these days with mask wearing.
I haven't worn any at all since mask wearing.
I love cleaning make up brushes too, it's calming or something. Gosh, I realise how boring I am!

Heeeeyy!!! You're calling me boring too!

Yeah lipstick manufacturing must be hit hard. I'm not much for lipstick anyway. But I love a good lip butter. I'm using one at the mo from lush called honey trap. I recommend! it's unreal and my lips have never been softer and it smells so good! And bonus - cruelty free!

Gremlinertia · 02-01-2021 8:48pm

Lip balm is as far as i go, ever.. Do wipe the top off it every so often.
