Random Irritations

[Norrin Radd]

I'm in the boat of weight gain ,and this bloody lock down really does make it hard to not add more .
I'm trying to cut out the snacking and it is starting to work ,but a lot of will power is needed I can tell you.

Hate is a strong word but I believe in this case justified. I HATE HIM!

Why?

Aren't a lot of their flights key routes in and out of Ireland which mutually benefits the Irish and the English .. some who work over here and fly back at weekends

 

[pokerjoke]

then why judge them and say "weak as piss will power", why not help and encourage them if youre such an expert?

Obviously I’m not tarring all with the same brush,many,many people start somewhere and succeed.
I know the type of person I’m on about that’s all I need for it to be an irritation to me.

Easy tip for you - when you next go shopping, don’t buy any snacks. When you get home and feel hungry, you won’t be able to have a snack and won’t get fat(ter).
I have lost half a stone this way during lockdown

Not understanding that not all weight gain is because of snacking/laziness. Some is medical.

Toothache during the dystopia. Dentist closed to all but "acute emergencies" but what does that even mean - how bad does it have to get?

Corsodyl mouthwash, the mint flavoured (not the pink one) and not the 24hr stuff. A dentist recommended me it years back when my wisdom teeths were having manoeuvres. It kills all bacteria in your mouth, and should only be used 3 days on the trot. It also stains your teeth if they aren't clean or you drink tea or coffee too soon after.
It used to be only ask for it only at the chemist, but I think that may have been relaxed now.
Either way, it's excellent stuff.

Orajel from the pharmacy. Get the 20% benzocaine version and ignore the instruction to only use it 4 times a day. I always have a tube of it in my pocket just in case and it's great.

People whose posts are more than 3 lines long. There is so much being posted that I am now switching off if it's any longer.

My medication being out of stock. Again. I've been researching apparently a strike in the production plant in France has caused the delay.

Luckily I build up a little back stock of them a few months back when I had issues getting them so I'll be ok until they come back

Dread Brexit tbh

Just spent two days with a mushy head cold, the irritation is how the hell did I get it! I’ve been locked up for 41 days with very limited contacts & those were with safeguards

Not sure if this should also be in the 'Gladdens the Heart' thread as well.
But I really do hope that the male blackbird that starts singing his lungs out at 4.30am 10 feet from my bedroom window finds a mate SOON.

My woodpecker must be loved up, as he has disappeared, leaving me in peace.

Seriously bad! I broke a tooth in half and spoke to my dentist. Luckily not in pain but even if you are they aren't doing much. There are emergency clinics but he said they are more for acute dental emergencies/injuries. It is probably infected if sore so maybe the GP could prescribe some anti-biotics?

Good to see our one back on the feeders.
Our village Sparrowhawk took her chick in our garden last year.
One of our two hedgehogs back as well.
