A thoroughly miserable Monday here - even volunteering didn’t lift the gloom but getting home to a wonderful parcel of treats from my sister. I have now switched the heating on to help me warm up and dry off and have a new library book to start. Monday is improving #boxofcheer

Thanks - the stress of working out how to collect my purse (when I can’t drive and my friend is prepping for her viva) is giving me a headache that means I might need them sooner rather than later!
Well it might have been foul weather for some of the day but there have been some good things... I finally have my new prescription from the neurologist to try and I met a friend for a long overdue catch up. However leaving my purse in her car when she lives 40 miles away is not ideal
