turpsToday, Costa are giving away free Terry's Chocolate orange muffins if you're called Terry, Terri, Teri. Great you'd think, but they're only doing so in four locations, and as much as they sound delicious, I'm not about to travel to York -- the nearest location -- to get a freebie.
Good things.
Thank you so muchpensnest for the lovely hats and sparkly snail tree ornament. I was over the moon with them, and the snail is on the tree right now. Photos to come when I actually post them. James says thank you, too. Especially as the parcel was also addressed to him and he got to open a parcel for once.
Also from Pen, there's a sparkly popslash ficathon happening here.
Also,wenchpixie is running a bandom ficathon here.
I need to give attention to both as I just saw the posts skimming, as things have been busy lately, so sorry in advance when I overload everyone with comments when I catch up. By which I especially mean, sorry, Dine!
RL wise, things got much better for James, the med changes helping, as was the counselling, and then yesterday was a day. Starting when we drove all the way to Newcastle for his limb centre appointment first thing in the morning, only to find we were 24 hours early, then he thought his OC health appointment for work was today, but was actually yesterday. Which suggests somehow he mixed up the two dates in his head. His work couldn't fit him in yesterday once he realised, so he can't see their doctor until the 27th, and they won't let him back until he's been to that appointment. So, on one hand, he's got all of Christmas off, on the other, that mix up pushed him back mental health-wise big time. Thankfully OC health have been great and this set back suggests that it probably would have been a little early to go back anyway if one mistake sends him spiralling. So, new plan is to be phased back for over New Year, when they're really busy, and have next year as a fresh start.
We also missed the funeral of one of our neighbours due to being at the limb center this morning. She was such a lovely older lady, and I'm going to miss talking to her.
But more good things, I saw Charlie's Angels and enjoyed it a lot, our tree is up and the house is looking very sparkly, and tonight I'm off to sibs dinner with Chris and Kayleigh. So really, things could be a lot worse.
