Ok today will be a good day

Yesterday I spent on the couch, frozen peas in situ, freezing my toes off!!!

Today will be different. Today I am going to a friends house to help her dump a load of stuff and give the place the beginnings of a clear out. We may even have to face more spiders in the end, but we will be brave. We are. after all, modern strong confident women who have lives and careers - what have we to be scared of when 8-legged creepy-crawlies come tearing out of some hidden, dark corner...........

OK so the last time, there were about a million of them (possibly more like 8) hidden under one of the chest of drawers we moved and there was screaming and panicking and running around with sticks.

But I am being brave and facing this. I've also had a good 3pints of water this morning which is helping my headache - lack of water causing some serious problems. I've bound up my infected toe with Savlon and cushioned plasters and tape. I've strapped up my ankle for support today. I've got a load of laundry on, bagged up the rubbish to dump before I go and all I have to do is to wait for the machine to finish and then hang it out, swing by the dump, then on to the jewellers so they can size my finger for my engagement ring, then on to my friends house.

I'm looking forward to it really. I could do with a day of backbreaking labour and a nice meal at the end of it!!! Meeting people, fresh air, exercise - it all helps with depression. Also helping other people - always gets the happy hormones going :)
