Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?

Sorry I hadn't replied @NatureLover . 

I'm glad volunteering is so positive, both for for you and the organisation you work for.

A couple of people in my family have been allergic to penicillin and I assumed it was a lifelong condition. 

I hope you're having a good weekend.

[NatureLover]

Yes, my doctor told me you can grow out of a childhood penicillin allergy, @Dimity . 

Not having a great weekend as a) I haven't achieved anything today, and b) I'm worried that I might be coming down with a cold. 

Going to try to tackle the kitchen sink and bench now. 

Hope you are feeling OK...

[Dimity]

I hope you can fend off the cold @NatureLover . And that you achieved what you wanted.

I'm feeling very flat. And getting very little done. Hopefully tomorrow will be better rather than worse.

[NatureLover]

Sorry you're feeling so flat, @Dimity . I do hope today is better not worse for you. 

I didn't tackle the kitchen yesterday - will try again today. 

I'm taking lots of Vit C in the hope of staving off the cold. 

[Dimity]

Hello @NatureLover fingers crossed re the vitamin C.

I hope you can push through with the kitchen. I'm still in a slump .I'm nearing the end of my official recovery period and maybe it's reaction to the long and difficult effort to get to this point. 

[NatureLover]

It has been a long and difficult effort for you, @Dimity . 😥

I didn't achieve anything yesterday either (only the basics like laundry).

However I feel well enough to go to work today thankfully. 

I hope you come out of your slump naturally soon 🤞

[Dimity]

Hope the last couple of days were OK for you @NatureLover .I'm trying to push through but very tired. I was up earlier this morning and got a couple of loads of washing done and shopped this afternoon and got a haircut. I'm troubled by the ongoing  clutter and continue to nibble at the edges. The family stuff is unravelling a bit, it's always a worry. I think I'm losing track of the hours and the days. I'm not sure how to turn things around. 

[NatureLover]

Hi @Dimity , sorry to hear you're still so tired. Sounds like you got a bit done yesterday 👍 even if it wasn't decluttering. 

By "family stuff unravelling", I assume you mean in a bad way? 😣

The last couple of days have been good but busy out, so nothing achieved on the house except laundry. Today I'm at home and hoping to achieve lots if I can. 

Did you want to tidy with me today? 

[Dimity]

Hello @NatureLover yes thanks it would be nice to clean and tidy with you. I'll shower first then get started. 

[NatureLover]

Great! Thanks @Dimity  🙂

I've finally done the washing up! It's been months. (I use and wash the same single plate, bowl and mug and cutlery over and over)

Now stopping for lunch - always a danger period, with getting started again. But I have you to motivate me!
