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.
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!

Saturday 17th November 2018
Just got back from walking the pup. She poo'd (which I, as a responsible dog owner, cleared up) then she carried on walking which was fine, did 250% and carried on walking, 300% and the pup still didn't want to stop. My legs were starting to get tired by this point so I said that we'd do another 50% then come home. 350% came and went, as did 400% and she carried on walking. It was becoming unsafe by this point so as soon as we'd walked 450% we came in. There's no way I could have safely walked any further so we came in, despite the pup wanting to keep walking. That 450% increased the record by 50%.
That means, after 6 days, there's the current bank total of 750% plus today's 350% extra means that there's 1100% in the bank and we've still got tomorrow's walk to do too! I very much doubt I'll be able to do any more than 100% safely tomorrow but the bank being so huge after only 6 days is incredible for a senior pup!
She's fast asleep under Steve's leg now and my eyes are drooping already, even though I've only been awake for 2 hours lol
I used to have a B12 spray to give me energy and I'm in desperate need of it now, but I don't think I've got any left! 😟
***
That's a relief! Just found the spray in my bag so just sprayed 4 sprays into my mouth so it'll hopefully kick in by the time I've taken my morning cocktail... saying that though, it's starting to kick in already, less than 15 seconds after the first squirt!!
I love how much the B12 helps so quickly and the supplements I take keep me on the level too!
***
That's me morning cocktail taken and the multi is going to be sooo needed today after the marathon me an' the puppy did this morning!
Gonna have to be a very early night tonight, no matter how much or little the virus scan has done 'cos I'll need all the sleep I can get by the end of the day!
***
Considering this morning's marathon with the puppy, I'm not feeling as exhausted as I thought I would be, thanks to the B12 spray!
My knees are painful and won't go any further than the bathroom and back, but that's totally OK with me!
***
Steve's just explained why we've been having take-aways every day for the last few months and it was pretty much exactly the reason I'd been thinking, but now that he's unemployed again we've just made a committment to each other... on Monday's, Wednesday's and Friday's Steve's gonna walk the pup with me and we'll have take-aways for our food. On Tuesday's, Thursday's and Saturday's we'll have home-cooked meals which leaves Sunday's when we'll treat ourselves to a Sunday lunch delivery from a local cafe... assuming we have cash on us of course! lol
My committment is to not pressure Steve "to be ready to go at 7am" on the days he joins us for our daily stroll. That's fine by me as long as we've gone and come back before lunchtime 'cos my body and motivation start dwindling after lunch, so I don't want Steve to have to pressure me to go out with him and the pup.
We've been out of the habit for so long that it'll take a while to reprogramme ourselves again and Steve'll have to remind me a few times a week, but after that we'll be good to go again and it'll help all three of us to loose weight and become closer as a little family again, as well as being so much healthier!
Me, Steve and Mitzi have all made a committment to each other to support one another and encourage us to become healthier and more active again.
We can so do this again... the first little while will be tough going but it's definitely doable again as long as we encourage each other and stick to the committments we've just made to each other.
Wish us luck? Please?
***
Bed time now that me prescription is kicking in and I deserve the extra 2 hours' sleep after this morning! lol

Friday 16th November 2018
That's the virus scan started. It was more complicated than it needed to be this week 'cos it was "out of date" so I clicked the button to update it, then it needed to restart the computer, then it found something that was trying to stop it working. I sorted that out then it said the UI wasn't responding so I had to close it and restart it before I could set it going for the first time.
If my calculations are right, it'll be finished at about 6am on Sunday, rather than late tomorrow now, which is totally fine if a little annoying. TBH though, I'd much rather that it took longer to do and keep me safe than to do a quicker scan and for viruses and malware to slip through and damage my laptop and destroy files and infect my friends and relatives!
***
Time to take our senior pup for her morning stroll now then take me morning cocktail and carry on with the surveys.
***
That's the pup walked, fed and watered. She only wanted to do 100% today, so there's still 750% in the bank which still means she's done on average 150% extra every day which is awesome. I don't want to force her to walk more than she wants just in case she's in pain or something... as long as she does 100%, that's enough and I'm fine with it.
Time for my morning cocktail now, then on with the surveys.
***
It was amazingly easy to take all 3 of me supplements this morning 1.5 mouthfuls of squash for the Calcium and 1 each for the Iron and Multi!
I like easy mornings like today! 😁
***
Virus scan is at 26% so it prolly won't move for the rest of the day now then it'll be at about 45% when I come down tomorrow morning and it'll keep plodding on from there.
If it's up to at least 95% tomorrow evening I'll stay up for it to finish, otherwise I'll go to bed, same as last week.
***
That's me prescription taken. Reading a YA/cross-over book about vampires as research for my synopsis for Terror... hope it won't give me nightmares tonight!
***
Gonna head to bed now, for an early night in the hope that the book I've been reading all day doesn't give me nightmares!!
Nite nite orl!
***
If my calculations are right, it'll be finished at about 6am on Sunday, rather than late tomorrow now, which is totally fine if a little annoying. TBH though, I'd much rather that it took longer to do and keep me safe than to do a quicker scan and for viruses and malware to slip through and damage my laptop and destroy files and infect my friends and relatives!
***
Time to take our senior pup for her morning stroll now then take me morning cocktail and carry on with the surveys.
***
That's the pup walked, fed and watered. She only wanted to do 100% today, so there's still 750% in the bank which still means she's done on average 150% extra every day which is awesome. I don't want to force her to walk more than she wants just in case she's in pain or something... as long as she does 100%, that's enough and I'm fine with it.
Time for my morning cocktail now, then on with the surveys.
***
It was amazingly easy to take all 3 of me supplements this morning 1.5 mouthfuls of squash for the Calcium and 1 each for the Iron and Multi!
I like easy mornings like today! 😁
***
Virus scan is at 26% so it prolly won't move for the rest of the day now then it'll be at about 45% when I come down tomorrow morning and it'll keep plodding on from there.
If it's up to at least 95% tomorrow evening I'll stay up for it to finish, otherwise I'll go to bed, same as last week.

Thursday 15th November 2018 part 2
This'll just be a very short blog post 'cos I've just cleared the cache's in both browsers ready for starting the deep virus and malware scan as soon as I wake up and come down tomorrow.
Absolutely bloated from me tea, so waiting for that to go down before I take my prescription 'cos it makes me really nauseous within a couple of minutes after taking it, so don't want to be throwing it up when I lay down to go to sleep tonight and I'll be too bloated for the ginger beer, so I'm considering a day of not taking it, just because it's already 7.34pm and I usually take it at like 4 or 5 o'clock so even if I take it right now, it'll be 2.30am before I even start to feel tired!
I'd rather miss a day and not throw up than to take it and not even feel well enough to go upstairs until the early hours of the morning! I know I should take it every day but it's only a couple of times a year that it happens and this is my second time this year and only because it's got lactose in the recipe which I'm allergic to.
***
Scratch that. I am going to take me prescription tonight 'cos I've just found a can of ginger beer that's really old, and I'm such a Scroogy tight-wad that I don't want to waste it, so I've just opened it and I'm gonna take me prescription now. It'll be a risky, very late night for me, but it's better that than missing the dose and not being able to miss another dose this year.
***
That's me prescription taken, so I'll be up until the early hours and asleep until the early afternoon tomorrow now 😞
***
Not sure if it's the ginger beer or my system is used to the new recipe, but I'm not feeling sick yet, so of course I've jinxed it now! lol
I'm gonna make the best of it and head to bed now though, so nite nite again orl! I'll bore you all rigid again tomorrow 😊

That's the puppy walked and fed.
We did 250% today, so add the extra 150% to what's already in the bank and we're already at 750% after only four days!!
We met a Jack Russell on an extending lead this morning. Our pup's tail was wagging into a blur and the other dog seemed interested too, so I'm standing there keeping Mitzi under full control and the other dog starts running over to her. The other dogs owners didn't seem to care until they got to a car width away from us when they suddenly stopped the lead extending and the poor pup came to a sudden stop.
The Dogs Trust say not to use extending leads for that exact reason! They are risking their dogs vocal cords by not using a harness and it must hurt the poor pup's necks too by coming to a sudden stop in the middle of a run!
It's their choice though and their responsibility for the vet bills when they need to replace the dogs vocal cords!
Rant over lol
Time to take me morning cocktail before Steve's visitor arrives to discuss her website now.
***
That's me supplements taken, so now I just need to try and find the document about how to write an attention-grabbing synopsis for the manuscript I finished last night... only several hundred thousand emails to search through lol
***
First survey of the day completed... this is how I used to waste my days pre-NaNo this year lol
***
Steve's just ordered our tea, so I'm gonna shut down now and dunno if I'll log back on before I head to bed, so I'll say nite nite now just in case!
