Thank you to all forumites who responded to my post a few days ago- very much appreciated!
@MDT @Glisten - the cruise is booked for June this year and I’m really looking forward to it. There’s something really calming about being out in the middle of the ocean knowing that I can’t be contacted by phone/email/social media and that the world can just happen without any control or action from myself. I’m not too worried if it’s rough seas as they just adds to the fun and excitement of cruising, especially since I don’t usually get seasick. Hello Carnival Splendor in June!
This morning I was woken up to a call from a handyman to come and fix the front door lock and the letterbox as we’d had trouble with both since moving in just over a month ago. My housemate and I had trouble getting back into the house on Sunday afternoon and had to go through the garage to get in the house. Anyway, the silly property manager came out on Monday and tried to be a hero by thinking she could fix it using a fake WD40 spray and then using her keys - didn’t work but obviously wanted to save the landlord money which we could’ve told her wouldn’t work! Long story short- new door handle/lock today got fitted and the letterbox is now firmly back on the post - was only being held on by 2 screws! All of this whilst my housemate had an appointment with the hospital for her sepsis treatment and to look at her cellulitis/abscess issues on her arm.
In regards to my mental health issues, I’m taking it one day at a time and trying to work up the courage to make a call to see if I could get an admission to the region PARCS facility. My GP has sent me my notes from previous PARCS admissions so I’m going to review them to see how I was able to get into PARCS - what reasons I used to get in and what I wanted to work on- as I think I really need it. I’ve had so much stress on me over the past few months with the whole moving thing and other issues that it’s getting a little too much to deal with. Again, I’ll get there eventually with what I have to do and that’s the main thing!
Time for me to chill and watch the tennis! Alex De Minaur is on tonight so it should be a good match!
Take care and stay safe!

Hey @Judi9877 ! Nice re the cruise! I'd LOVE to go on a cruise. I still haven't got to one yet. I've been houseboating plenty of times, but I just haven't made the cruises yet.
Hope things go well for you!
Once again, thanks for the update!
@HelloKitty1981 , I'm in NSW too.. and yes, it's so windy and hot here...
