That's the virus scan started at 7.45am... hope I don't accidentally stop it tomorrow like I did last week! lol
***
We did 275% today, so take off the 100% that is required, then add today's extra 175% to the 425% that's already in the bank, gives us 600% after 5 days which is great going and means that there's just 175% extra over the whole weekend to take it up to 750% which is an OCD number for me.
Hopefully the pavement will be cleared of scaffolding by the weekend so that we can go back to counting in 50%'s instead of 25%'s again.
Time to take me morning cocktail then make a start on the survey's now!
***
All 3 of me supplements went down pretty easily this morning and I took my last Calcium and Multi, so it's just the Iron for the next 5 days then it's time to try the new Multivitamins and minerals to see if my body wants to take it or if it's got lactose in it. I'm really seriously hoping that it's lactose-free so that I can just take one pill every morning instead of three!
Wish me luck!
***
Virus scan is at 26% now and it'll prolly stay there until some time overnight when it'll go up to 30% and it'll gradually increase until it finishes in the early hours of Sunday morning.
***
Just had to fill in another form for ESA and it wasn't a self-seal envelope so I had to lick it and it tastes sooo gross! Yuckerama!
***
That's me prescription taken and I've got 9 days left before I start the new box now.
***
First survey of the day completed... can't wait to see which one hits the shelves!
***
Going to bed for an earlyish night tonight... nite nite orl!

Thursday 29th November 2018
That's the puppy walked and fed. We did 275% this morning, so let's add that to what's already in the bank... 250 + 175 = 425% after 4 days which ain't as good as last week, but it's just over 100% extra a day which is groove and cooly!
Gotta phone my GP for a telephone appointment to ask about taking St John's Wort along with me AP. Gonna take me morning cocktail first though!
***
That's them swallowed then. Take my last Calcium and Multi tomorrow and the Iron in 6 days time. I'm thinking that I'll finish taking the Iron before I try the new Multi so that I don't accidentally OD on it 'cos the new Multi has got Iron in it, so don't wanna be taking 200% of the RDA for almost a week in case it does something nasty to my body.
Better safe than sorry and all that jazz!
***
That's the call made about St. John's Wort. The Advanced Nurse Practitioner is gonna call this afternoon at some point to talk about it. It only needs a yes or no answer, but I'd prefer to play it safe so that the AP keeps working and I don't die from mixing them up.
Better safe than sorry and it'll only be a short call... I just hope my voice holds out! lol
***
That's one delivery that I was expecting today... still waiting for Jacki's gift that should have been here by 8pm at the latest yesterday! Apparently it's been sent by Royal Mail who have already delivered post to the street today and still nothing. Gonna give them until the weekend then I'll phone to see where it's got to 😒
***
First survey of the day completed
***
Just heard about taking the St. John's Wort... no go unfortunately 'cos it interacts with loads of prescriptions including my AP and "it does nasty things to your liver" so I'll have to find some other way to go through the darker months without any kind of support 😟 I'm thinking I'll need extra sprays of the B12 to see me through, but I'm glad I asked for advice rather than just assuming it would be OK!
My GP surgery has saved me from future problems again!
***
Just taken my prescription and set the daily quick virus scan going... gotta remember to clear both cache's before I head to bed tonight, so that I can set the deep scan going as soon as I come down in the morning.
***
Second survey done and dusted.
***
Still free of viruses and malware.
***
Third survey out of the way... that one only had 3 questions!
***
Fourth survey done... just a single question on that one!
***
And the fifth one of the day is done and dusted!
***
I is cream crackered so I'm having a well-deserved early night.
Nite nite orl!

The phone uses up about 1% an hour if it's not used so I'll get 2 or 3 days out of a full charge I reckon 'cos I don't use it that much so it's better than Steve got out of it when he used it but still not as good as the independent phone I used that I could get 4 or 5 days out of a full charge for using it the same amount. I still prefer independent phones, but if they had more storage then I'd never look elsewhere 'cos they would be perfect then!
***
That's the puppy walked and fed. 150% today, purely because our neighbour is blocking the entire path with scaffolding so could only do half the length and Mitzi must have been counting the number of times we went past our front door 'cos we went past it 6 times which is usually 300% but because the path was blocked today, the same number of times is half the length.
So we only banked 50% today, added to yesterdays total gives us 250% in the bank after 3 days.
Hopefully we'll do 250% tomorrow to take the bank balance up a bit more to 100% extra a day. I'm not going to force her though, if she only wants to do 100% a day then that's fine by me!
Time for me morning cocktail now.
***
The supplements were a nightmare to get down this morning! Took 3 mouthfuls of squash to get each of 'em down and the Iron disintegrated again.
Not good at all.
👎
***
That's my prescription delivered already! It only took 2 days after being issued by my GP and 3 days faster than I was thinking too! WTG Rowland's Pharmacy! Next issue date: Christmas Eve! I'm thinking I'll have to put the request in a week before I usually do so that I can be sure I've got to cover me over Christmas and New Year!
***
First survey of the day completed.
***
Second survey done and dusted... I'd have loved to do a product test for the thing this survey was about!
***
Three survey's completed. Could this be another opinionated day maybe?
***
Four survey's now!!
***
And another makes five! After a very slow start, I'm speeding along now!
***
Six so far! Still waiting for the final gift and Amazon says that some companies deliver up until 10pm so it looks like another late night for me 😞
***
That's 7 so about 10% of the survey invites I've had today... not bad going considering I usually struggle to answer half that many!
***
Given up with the survey's and waiting for the delivery so I'm off to bed now... nite nite orl!

Tuesday 27th November 2018
The pup was eager to go for her walk this morning... only needed to call "walkies!" once and she trotted to the bottom of the stairs to get her harness on.
We did 250% today, so that's 150% in the bank, added to yesterday's 50% means there 200% in the bank after 2 days. I'm hoping that it'll just be 200-odd% every day this week 'cos it just won't be safe for me to do any more marathons after the last 2 weeks!
Gonna take me supplements now.
***
They all went down amazingly easily! Even the Calcium crumbs pretty much stayed together! Got 3 Calcium, 8 Iron and 3 Multi's left now so I obviously started taking the Iron 5 days after the other two for some bizarre reason.
***
First survey of the day completed
***
That's the labels just arrived, so just waiting for Jacki's gift to arrive now then I can start the wrapathon!
***
That's the CAB form filled in about 3... apparently I should hear back within 3 working days, so that's Friday yeah? Keep your fingers crossed for me!
👌😉😌
***
Second survey completed... a very unique way of getting my opinion on that one!
***
My Samsung has just started flashing red at me so I've plugged it in to charge it up. Doing some quick sums and going by the phone's estimate of how long it'll take, it should be finished charging at about 8pm, then we'll see how many days of full charge it lasts. Steve said he charged it up every day when he had it, but it's lasted a couple of days for me, between charges!
***
That's the squash sorted until the end of the week... thank you Steve!!
***
Third survey done and prescription taken.
***
7.15pm and it's fully charged so let's see how long the charge lasts, shall we?
***
Still virus and malware free.
***
Going to bed now! Nitey nite nite!

Monday 26th November 2018
I think the pup is feeling the last 2 week's worth of marathons 'cos we only did 150% today. Hopefully we'll just do short walks this week to recover!
***
That's me supplements taken. Nice and easily this morning, thankfully! Got four Calcium, twelve Iron and three of the Multi left so I'll be opening up the new bottle by the weekend and I'll know for sure if they've got lactose in them or not within a couple of minutes of taking the first one if I can keep taking them or not. I seriously hope I can!
***
That's the rubbish, cardboard boxes and recycling gone now so we're all set for another week.
***
That's Marie's second gift just arrived, so just waiting for Jacki's gift and the labels now, then I can wrap it all up and relax until Valentines Day 2019.
***
We're having a home-cooked meal for the first time in months! Yaaaay! Means I can stop pestering Steve about it for the rest of the week now! Yaaaay!
***
First survey of the day completed.
***
Second survey done and dusted.
***
Virus and malware free for another day
***
Third survey completed and it's only 3pm!
***
Fourth survey done... a very opinionated day as opposed to yesterday! lol
***
Fifth survey completed, but I may not get credit for that one either 'cos the session timed out on me for some bizarre reason!
***
Had enough for the day and me pills are kicking in, so I'm orf to beddy-byes now.
Nite nite orl!

Sunday 25th November 2018
Back to normal with our Sunday routine - arguments again.
Steve thought he was being helpful by taking the rubbish out before I got up, but in reality, by doing that, he made everything worse and so much harder. I take things out in the order I do for a reason and Steve trying to be helpful just added extra stress that I really didn't need.
I then asked for his help with the cardboard recycling and he made that harder than it needed to be too. I wanted him to put the biggest, heaviest box in the bag so that I could sort the rest of it out. He started putting the smallest boxes in first so that there was even less room for the bigger boxes.
When that had been taken out, I asked Steve if he'd cleared up the pup's poo before he put the rubbish out. He hadn't, so yet again it was left up to me.
I then had to walk the pup and she was showing me all kinds of Westitude. Steve asked her if she wanted "to go for tats" when I call "walkies" which must confuse the poor pup to no end. When we eventually got out we only did 100% again so there's still 1100% in the bank after 7 days.
Steve's getting Carer's Allowance for caring for me for 30 hours a week but I'm lucky to get an hour's support out of him.
He's also gone back on his promise of cooking at home and walking the pup with me once a week too, even though it was him that brought it up and said he wanted to get back into it last weekend.
I'm seriously not going to be able to move for the rest of the day now though... it just won't be safe!
I really have pretty much given up on it all now. I really have.
***
That's me supplements taken... another pretty easy today again, thankfully!
***
First survey of the day sorted... only took a couple of minutes too which is even better!
***
That's my repeat prescription ordered again so hopefully it'll be here by the end of the week but I've got 2 weeks left just in case. That's what I always do, just to make sure I don't run out.
***
It's only 4.50pm but it's pitch black outside now! 😞
***
Still virus and malware free, thankfully
***
Going to bed now, for an early night.
Nite nite orl!

Saturday 24th November 2018
Thankfully the pup only wanted to do 100% of the walk today so there's still 1100% in the bank after 6 days. She's also been fed and watered so I'm not gonna move from the sofa other than to go to the bathroom for the rest of the day now.
I accidentally stopped the virus scan first thing too... it had only managed 4% in 8 or 9 hours though, so I wasn't going to start it again. Did the backup instead and discovered that it's my documents that take the longest to back up.
Gotta try and remember to email AVG to ask about adding the de-clutterer to my subscription 'cos that's what comes up every time I do the daily virus scan and I trust that it won't eff up my machine, but it'd be good to have the full protection now that I know my ESA is continuing. I'm protected from malware and viruses until 2021 and I just want the full protection so that I know I'm keeping myself and my contacts free from nasties.
Gonna take me supplements first though!
***
That's the three supplements all swallowed for another day, not too bad to swallow... not quite the easiest, but far from the worst!
***
Yet again, Steve's gone back on his promises - he promised to walk the pup with me one day this week and he hasn't. He also promised that we'd have a home-cooked meal today and we haven't. He's being paid to care for me for 30 hours a week but I'm lucky if I get that in 6 MONTHS!!
***
Taken me prescription and haven't needed the ginger beer so far, thankfully. Gonna put in my repeat prescription request tomorrow.
***
First survey of the day finished.
***
Gonna listen to one more song on Spotify then head to bed for an early night.
Nite nite orl!

Friday 23rd November 2018
Steve's just phoned the Benefits Agency about my ESA claim that I was getting stressed out about yesterday. Apparently it's not stopping which is a huuuuuge relief!
We've cracked open a celebratory J2O each in celebration lol
Gonna take the pup out for our morning stroll now then be ready to get the door to C's pressie and Steve's most recent client at about 10.30/11am.
Unless something goes seriously tits up, today is shaping up to be pretty positive! Yaaay!
***
The pup doesn't want to go out yet, so I've brought her harness and lead in ready to try again when she gets out of her bed... I'm thinking it's maybe because it's pretty dark right now and maybe she's scared of moving around in the dark or something?
***
Just started the weekly virus scan and it's at 9% right now... if I remember last week, that's where it'll stay until tomorrow morning when it'll be 30% ish, then it'll finish in the early hours of Sunday morning. I've been doing a quick scan most days so I doubt there's any viruses, but I'd prefer to be paranoid about it and do a weekly scan than to not give a damn about it and get infected!
***
The pup walked another 300% today, so that's 200% in the bank, let's add that to the current bank total of 900% and we've got 1100% in the bank after 5 days.
I'm not gonna be able to walk further than the bathroom today 'cos I'm so wobbly now, but that's a huge 11 days in the bank after only 5 days of walks which is incredible! No wonder I'm so tired and wobbly!
***
AVG was blocking me saving posts to here, but with Steve's help we worked out how to get it sorted so that I can still post here for the three days a week that the virus scan is running... just needed to untick a single box, et voila!
***
Up to 17% with the virus scan now... it's zipping away really fast today!
***
Oooh! 26% now! I don't know what I've done to increase the speed of the scan in the last 7 days, but it took almost 24 hours to get this far last week!
Gonna take me supplements now.
***
They all went down pretty easily today. The Calcium will be finished in 6 days, the Iron in about 10 and the Multi in 7 then I'll be taking just a single supplement a day for the next 360 days. I'm 90% sure that it's lactose free 'cos I checked the ingredients before I placed the order, but I'll only know for sure when I've taken the first one. If it's not, I'll order the 3 that I'm currently taking again and give the new ones to Steve.
***
That's me prescription taken! Went down nice and easily thankfully and I'm listening to Odessey for the first time - seems to be a recorded concert rather than a studio album 😞
***
First survey of the day completed, but I is cream crackered so I'm gonna publish this then head to bed.

Up to 17% with the virus scan now... it's zipping away really fast today!
***
Oooh! 26% now! I don't know what I've done to increase the speed of the scan in the last 7 days, but it took almost 24 hours to get this far last week!
Gonna take me supplements now.
***
They all went down pretty easily today. The Calcium will be finished in 6 days, the Iron in about 10 and the Multi in 7 then I'll be taking just a single supplement a day for the next 360 days. I'm 90% sure that it's lactose free 'cos I checked the ingredients before I placed the order, but I'll only know for sure when I've taken the first one. If it's not, I'll order the 3 that I'm currently taking again and give the new ones to Steve.
***
That's me prescription taken! Went down nice and easily thankfully and I'm listening to Odessey for the first time - seems to be a recorded concert rather than a studio album 😞
***
First survey of the day completed, but I is cream crackered so I'm gonna publish this then head to bed.
Nite nite orl!

Thursday 22nd November 2018
That's the pup walked and fed now. 350% today, so let's make a deposit into the bank. Yesterday we were at 650% plus today's 250% extra means there's 900% in the bank after 4 days. No wonder I'm so achey and wobbly!
***
That's most of the Christmas gifts arrived now - just got 3 more coming 24th-28th, my mother-in-law's gift will be here with the post today and then it's just the sticky labels then that's it finished for another year. I'll get the door for the post then that really will have to be it for today 'cos I'm aching and shaking all over. Just getting to the bathroom and back will be a struggle!
***
That's my mother-in-law and one of the other gifts just arrived, so there's 2 more gifts and the labels to come and that's it sorted, all bar the wrapping up then that's me relaxed until Valentine's Day next year. I can relax while everyone else is running around like headless chicken's in the lead-up to Christmas while I just sit around and relax. 😀
***
Me morning cocktail went down like a treat today, only a single mouthful of squash each and there was only a little bit of squash left in the bottle! Feeling realy proud of myself now!
That's me prescription taken and Steve's just promised to phone the DWP tomorrow about why I haven't had any forms or phone assessments for my ESA renewal 'cos it came to an end today! 😕

Wednesday 21st November 2018
The puppy is being a stroppy bitch again and refusing to come for a walk so I'm gonna give it until 2pm then give up.
Gonna take me supplements now instead.
***
They were all an absolute nightmare to swallow this time! The Calcium crumbs went everywhere, the Iron disintegrated and made me retch and the Multi refused to go down. I'm now bloated because of all the squash and in oneheckuva foul mood, not helped by the pup refusing to go for her walk... doesn't bode well for the rest of the day!
Only 150% today, so there's only 50% going into the bank today, but 650% in the bank after 3 days is awesome, I reckon!
***
That's Yule gifts pretty much sorted too... just gotta find something for C and M/D now then I can wrap them up as they arrive and relax while everyone else is panicking!
***
Aaand it's finished. That's the last gift bought, wrapped and sent off via Amazon. When they've all been delivered I'll wrap and store them until closer to the time but as of about half an hour ago, it's all sorted now and I can put my feet up while I watch everyone run around like headless chickens for the next month.
I love getting things sorted before the end of November so that I don't need to get stressed out and in a rush like everyone else is... the post is more reliable and I'm not paying through the nose for things nobody wants 😁😃
***
Gonna log off for the night now, so that I can put my laptop on the floor ready for me take-away tea again *sigh*

Tuesday 20th November 2018
It was a battle of wills to get the pup out for her wander this morning. She was showing me Westitude and I was showing her libran stubbornness. I won in the end and we did 450%!! Take off the 100% standard, means we did a huge 350% extra this morning!! Add this morning's 350% to yesterday's 250% means that there's already 600% in the bank after only 2 days!!
Not planning to move for the rest of the day now, otherwise I'll collapse into a heap and not be able to get up. My carer won't care either even though he's being paid to!
Gonna take me morning cocktail now... I ache all over and I'm totally exhausted now!
***
That's the supplements taken.
They were all a nightmare to get down my throat today 😞
***
First survey of the day completed!
***
Second survey of the day completed
***
Third survey done and dusted... I'm on a roll! lol
***
Fourth survey done too
***
Still virus and malware free, so I'm gonna take me prescription, wait for my phone to finish charging then head to bed I reckon.
Nite nite orl!

That's the pup walked and fed.
We did 350% and the pup wanted to do more, but it just wasn't safe for me to walk any further so we came home. There's still 250% already in the bank, but I just can't walk like last week, this week... it's just not safe!
My knees and legs are killing me right now and my hands are shaking, which is the claxon blowing and telling me to sit down and rest. There won't be much moving around today, that's for sure!
***
Supplements taken now. The Calcium decided to be a right royal PITA to swallow all the crumbs today, the Iron was the only one that behaved and the Multi took 2 mouthfuls of squash before it went down.
That's the recycling been and gone so I'll go and bring the box in
***
That's the recycling box and cardboard bag brought in now... just waiting for the rubbish to be collected then I can bring that in too and that'll be it for the day then until the shopping comes.
No more moving to anywhere other than the bathroom for me for the rest of the day after the rubbish has been collected now! My legs, and especially my knees just won't support me for long enough to do anything else!
***
So much for the agreement we came up with on Saturday afternoon! I've asked Steve twice if he wants to join me an' the pup on our morning stroll and he's said no both times.
I think I remember saying that we'd start off slowly with one day a week then gradually increase it each week so maybe I'm wrong to think that we'd automatically do Monday's, Wednesdays and Fridays with the walking? I dunno, but it was Steve's idea, not mine and I want to keep up my side of the agreement by not pestering him to come with us, but at the same time, I don't want to be the only one keeping up my end of the agreement either!
***
First survey of the day completed
***
Steve's just said that he'd prefer to start walking the pup with me once a week and he'll surprise me on which day that'll be.
I know where I stand now, so I'll keep walking the pup alone each morning and I'll just say to Steve that we're going instead of asking him if he's going to join us each morning.
I just don't think I can do another marathon week like we did last week, although, saying that, it's only 4 days at 350% total each day that makes 1000% so last week wasn't as spectacular as I'd thought after all!
As long as the pup does at least 100% every morning, I won't pressure her to do any more than that as long as she returns the favour when it's not safe for me to walk any further, like this morning, too! If we get snow I can almost guarantee that there won't be anything in the bank until it melts though! It'll have to be 100% every day then straight back into the house to de-freeze and warm up lol
***
That's me prescription taken... hopefully without the aid of ginger beer tonight!
***
Doing the daily virus scan now. Very much doubt it'll find anything 'cos it only finished the deep scan yesterday, but you can never be too careful though and I reckon it's better to be paranoid and safe than relaxed and infecting everyone!
Yep, as I thought, totally free of viruses and malware for another day, so I'm off to bed now...
Nite nite orl!

Sunday 18th November 2018
The virus scan finished at about 2am so just gotta back everything up then carry on with survey's and stuff.
***
That's the rubbish and recycling sorted and out ready for collection tomorrow. No arguments this week, amazingly!
The pup is too tired to walk today, but after doing 1100% extra in the last 6 days, I think we're both allowed a single day off walking, so lets take 100% out of the bank and there's still 10 days worth of walks in the bank so I reckon we're both allowed today off.
Steve's making me more squash so that I can take me morning cocktail... and they're sorted! Got 2 more bottles to take out for the recycling then that's it for the week.
Gonna take me supplements now...
***
That's them all swallowed now. The Calcium was a real nightmare to get down because the crumbs went everywhere, but there's only 12 days left before I get to taking the single one every morning.
***
That's the squash finished so I'll take the bottles out for recycling now then that's it for the day... not gonna be able to do very much today after yesterday's marathon!
***
That's the puppy walked. A surprising 350% so let's put the 100% back into the bank that we took out this morning, plus the 250% extra means that there's a massive 1350% in the bank at the end of 7 days.
I won't be able to move for the rest of the day now and I'll sleep well tonight, as will the pup... don't think either of us are going to move very far for the rest of the day now lol
***
Just put the cardboard boxes, baby nappies and baby wipes on Freegle - hopefully someone will take them before next weekend or they'll be recycled/binned.
In a bit of a tidy-uppy mood today lol
***
That's me prescription taken. Gonna get through tonight without the ginger beer 'cos I didn't need it this morning, so I'm thinking that maybe my body is used to the recipe again now? Certainly hope so!
***
I was wrong. I do still need the ginger beer... not as badly as the first couple of days, but I still feel a bit sick so I'm downing the ginger beer just to be sure I don't throw up when I'm asleep.
Gonna have 3 mince pies then head to bed I think - after so much walking this last week as well as only 3 hours of sleep on one of them because of having the trots, I think I deserve an early night!
