Thank you LaMa, Marsia, Vic & Floater 
I heard from R last night, after a 10 hour shift, but I think it's the first time that our son, D has forgotten. I got a call from an old friend yesterday, which was a lovely surprise & I had a lovely call from my brother.
We're heading soon for G's dentist's ap't.

Thanks, M
Thanks, TruI hope you had a great day
Just got home from our trip to Dev- bought 2 jackets, 2 shirts & a pair of slacks. I’m all blued up. We had a quick Chinese meal & glad to be home.
Once again, so much perfume!

Who knows, LaMa? I know after I have had a major reaction from a crazy number of perfumes all at once, like I did in Hobart, that I react to any/all!
Don't forget to pack a raincoatYay indeed. I felt really shabby when we went to Hobart & now I have a couple of really smart outfits.
I’m going to have a trying on day next Tuesday while G is at golf & will start packing for Queensland.
Perfume sucks
That's normal, I think. I get more sensitive to basically everything for a while after major reactions as well.

I'll be pleased when it settles down again, LaMa, hopefully before getting on a plane to Queensland. I'll try to stay home as much as possible.
I feel much better after buying some clothes for winter that I feel nice in. Sure I had to go up a size, but I really did feel good in them & won't feel shabby next time I go out for lunch. Everything I bought yesterday matches & also match things I already have.
I have signed up to do Dry July this year & will raise money for Cancer research. (If anyone wants to donate something small PM me & I'll share the link). It will kill 2 birds with one stone. I will have a serious re-set starting in July. Meanwhile, I will still try to drop a kilo before we fly to Q'L.

I got side-tracked & realised I hadn't posted this so will now

Same. Sure, I'd prefer to be back in my slim clothes but the heartache of hating my mirror image is a stressor I really don't need in my life.

I think we need to know we can look nice, even if that size is more than we would like. My self-esteem has been suffering a bit & these clothes will be a boost. I felt really shabby on our last weekend away.
Will you buy something new?
Thanks, Em. I'll PM you the link. Do you fancy joining me?Dry July sounds great, will definitely donate.

I am having a good day today. We went to the tip this morning(we take an elderly neighbour's recycling too) & won't need to again for a month or so. We did some shopping in town, I got a few library books, returned a rabid religious letter to where it came from, with a firm but polite note and took Arch for a couple of short walks. We both just took him for a 1.5 km walk through our bush. Yay for it not being snake weather. Had a delicious rabbit curry for lunch & we're about to have lamb chops(our own) & veg for dinner.
I put our only bottle of French bubbles in the fridge because if Labour wins the elections today G & I will celebrate tomorrow with French bubbles! I am feeling quietly confident, but very nervous.
