Bumbling along. Mum of 2. Honorary northerner. Bipolar. Current midlife crisising, ex-accountant, trainee mental health nurse.
With the smiley power of a fluffy dog, I give you #3GoodThings

1. Washed my hair with lush products and now I smell amazing

2. Nice dog walk with a friend who I hadn't seen for a while

3. Small amount of revision done

Training him to do some light house work.

Trying to revise, but I've got music on in the background to quell restless anxiety- not sure how useful Florence and the Machine is to nursing skills.

Tired, feel like I've wasted the day not doing much/dosing. Haven't really revised properly. I just want the exam over now. Also, the awesome new trousers I bought are too small, feeling exceptionally shitty.

This is late for me, trying to get back into a normal sleep cycle.

#3GoodThings

1. Did some revision
2. Walked the doggo and picked up my prescriptions
3. Caught up on the traitors with family

Now to the tricky business of sleep 😴

My hair is falling out- pretty sure related to the hypothyroidism, so I'm hoping it'll thicken up again when the meds kick in. It's depressing every time I shower and large clumps of hair come out- looks like I shaved a smurf in there.

It's been a little while- #3GoodThings

1. Got various chores done today, and think the fatigue/fog stopping them before is lifting slightly

2. Hair washed and sparkly new shower gel used

3. Caught up on the traitor's with family, it's really nice watching it with them

Just finished picking my eldest's GCSE choices with her. But god I feel old.
January 11, 2026 at 1:54 PM
I need to re-find some hobbies- the littlest is swimming with friends, the eldest is in the bath and the husband is revising. I have no idea what to do with myself. I don't want to revise more, I don't want to do the washing up. What should I do?

What do you mean you trying to watch the traitor's? I'm just happily playing here

Husband is revising for an exam. Children are doing homework/playing on their devices. I have walked the dog and been to the post office. Not entirely sure what to do with myself now. Feel a bit lost and low.

Cooked too much chicken at lunch= very happy doggo when I was full.

Feeling quite low. Think I'm going to go to bed now. Nahnight

So my lovely cpn is having her job role changed. I'm being moved into 'long term conditions' team, so will see someone every 3 months when I have my lithium checked. I know it's stupid but I feel a bit bereft as we had a good working relationship. I guess I just have to stay well. #FamousLastWords

Anyone know where I've left any spare change for the tooth fairy?
January 4, 2026 at 9:16 PM
I'm not getting my dining room table back am I?

Feeling a bit low, even though I have no specific reason to. So! #3GoodThings time it is!

1. Walked the dog and bumped into a friend, which was nice
2. Stocked up on all the cheap vegan and veggie party food I could ahead of hosting people on Sat & Sun
3. I think the essay is ok to hand in tomorrow

Puzzle been a puzzling

Is it too early to go to bed? I'm really tired and not entirely sure why

Gingerbread train for all those who celebrate locomotion. Laden down with sprinkles, I don't think it'll travel anywhere

Someone's up early and already playing with their presents

Kirby and my youngest enjoy being reindeers

The pre Christmas edition of #3GoodThings

1. I've bathed and washed my hair- feel a thousand times better

2. Old sofa is outside, new sofa is in and car is ready for a tip run tomorrow

3. Meds picked up in time for the Xmas break 🎄
