Thanks @Exoplanet and @greenpea. I'm sitting outside to read what I have on paper but a lot of it is on-line. Going to get changed from pjs and freshen up a bit. Just had a strong coffee too. At some stage I'll do a short stint on the exercise bike too. Sil and I moved it outside in the sun this morning.
There's so much to be done. Making a list of tasks and questions for different people.
Still feeling overwhelmed even tho' I've made a start.

Hello @eth @Mazarita @greenpea @Faith-and-Hope @CheerBear
My morning went ok after a freezing start (again). There's still frost in my courtyard but a least some sun now. My dogs force me out the door but I was not a willing walker this morning. I'm having a bit of a middle of day slump in energy. Work's been very hard lately and I'm trying to recuperate over the weekend. Hi @Exoplanet I don't know if we've met, but hope you are travelling ok. Wishing all of you well.

Hi everyone 👋💕
@eth I often find that taking the first step is the hardest, so I break it down to minutae..... I make a deal with myself to read the first line. Just breaching the start often helps, with the thought of, “Okay, I have read th first line ..... I can read th second one ..... and I can stop reading whenever ai choose ....”. I find it helps to take away the “have to” feelings, and keeps it in the moment, especially when there is some sort of deadline. I tell myself to breathe ..... that there is time, there is enough time ....

Wow @greenpea I Iived in that part of the world for many years, and we got below zero but never had a morning like that! I'm a good way south now, and don't like the lack of light in winter. It has reached 10 degrees now but that'll do - a long way from my aching fingers this morning (even with gloves!) You have yourself a good afternoon too
