    Are you resting today?
    What's happening with Si? Does he have a finish date? Is he looking around for something else?
    How are your Princesses? Puppers?

    Not resting - study. I’m soooo far behind after everything

    Princesses are ok, Katie is starting to make appointments to view houses puppers are gorgeous and seem happy

    Si has chats this week with his boss to see if there’s anything suitable in Centrica - their redundancy bill is looking huge so they’re keen to redeploy ‘expensive’ staff like him. Otherwise, redundancy day will probably be mid November, and he’s thinking he’ll take pay in lieu. He is looking for something but we’ll have a fair amount of time to play with before the money runs out

    Hooray for him being "expensive" Glad that the pressure will be off for a while. Hope Katie finds her dream home soon x How's Jess?

    Studying? Are you pacing?

    Jess is absolutely fine, and being nice to me right now.

    No, I didn’t pace and am regretting it now, but I have to catch up. I have realised I’m more stressed than I thought - I thought I was relatively calm about everything - but I very nearly bit my dad’s head right off earlier. He was being a bit of an ass but that’s because he has a lot on his mind. Normally, I’d let it wash over me but I struggled today

    Want to talk about it? What can you do to help you to destress a bit today?

    I don’t think there’s much more to say at the moment that I haven’t already. It’s pretty obvious why I’m stressed - the last few weeks have been difficult and I’m worried about the future.

    Anyway, de-stressing today involves touching up paintwork in the utility room where we’ve (the royal we obvs) moved shelves

    I am

    In other news, I have my appointment for the next lumbar puncture on 26 October. I’ve got to have a covid test 3 days before and self isolate at home (different bedroom, bathroom etc) for 3 days before......
