Hi @utopia - had lunch with my friend yesterday and have washed this morning so I'm one step ahead of you 😆. Not much else - I'll find somewhere new to walk to tomorrow morning, then tomorrow night my daughter and I are going to see "Loving Vincent" and grab some dinner out afterwards.
Just thinking about what to cook for dinner tonight - maybe fish. I'll head out later and buy it.
Hope you enjoy your lunch out today.

Bummer @utopia. Loneliness can really suck can't it? Did you cancel completely or just postpone? I have only one friend that I can bring myself to see. She knows some of my story but we don't mention it anymore. We meet and she gives me a hug. I want it to last a bit longer - the only human contact I get. Not the same as hugging the pooch.
I nearly told her that I wanted to vent yesterday but didn't want to put her in an awkward position. We were out in public and I knew I'd end up crying.
Just came home from walking the dog. My daughter is out again and ptobably won't be home tonight. I'll have leftover lasagne - the fourth time this week. Am onto my third glass of wine. Feeling flatter than a pancake.
Sorry - that's not very uplifting for you. What do they say? Misery loves company.
