Bloody hell, what a day. Been moving house, where been at it for 15 hours. Found a massive leak in the water tank in the loft, so had to turn water off. Its ruined the ceiling and the carpets undernealth. Its a lot im taking on so trying to keep calm. In sleeping on the drive tonight in my van until i sort things out tomorrow - noght.
😱 Sounds like the sort of thing which would break me. Worst thing that happened to me when I moved into my house was I flipped on the electric and it set off all the alarms and I couldn't find the code 😲 I ended up switching the electric back off which stopped the alarm (as the battery was dead) and then found the code with a torch 😂
Thank you @Inastorm. We are close, but it's the cleaning of the house with her brother that's the issue. They're supposed to clean instead of paying rent. If she had the time, I do think she would clean, but she says she's been tired too, I'm just trying to be patient. I hope you're feeling as well as possible today.
Yes, treat yourself and i hope you feel better @chiastic_slide

I must have mis-communicated. An app and smart phone is not needed to walk and I am fine with walking. He used the app for guidance on food choices and calorie counts. For now I am going to use my stationary bicycle and work to decrease fat, sugar and salt in my diet. I bought salmon, grapes, and fresh green beans yesterday.
Glad you have recovered from covid. Hope you never get it again.

@SillyOldBear Thank you. I'm glad too. I felt it was scary for a few days, but then I woke up with a sense of the virus having been killed off. Best wishes on your journey. 
It will be a good one I'm sure. Our brains and bodies respond positively at any age to movement. Cutting out refined sugar and especially hfcs will do wonders for bodies and brains. An easy first step: don't consume any beverages with sugar in them. Another way to put it: don't drink sugars.
hugs

Thanks for the post. I had inspected prior, but that was about 12 weeks ago. It had been noted a small leak in the roof, but this is wrong, as its a big leak from the water tank. I think the roof is okay. The previous people likely knew how bad it was but just didn't say anything, though I can't say for sure, but the whole ceiling is black, so I don't see how they didnt notice. It was also the carpet, which I've had to cut in in half and throw it out, as it was covered in water and mould.
I just noticed your signature line. It makes my heart ache because I have been back in CO for 2 years and I haven't gotten to the mountains even once yet. I do drive along the foothills on a route that I take weekly, but that's like looking at a postcard instead of being in the place. I used to be a constantly outdoorsy type, from my early years into adulthood. Living in AZ for 12 years made me a homebody.
I feel insanely irritable and sad. The slightest sound will bother me, even if it's me creating the noise. I'm thinking the irritation is due to finally getting a good amount of sleep last night after not so much over the workweek. I need more, and people get grumpy when they are tired. I did babysitting often when I was in teens to early 20s because I ended up with several nieces and nephews at that age. I learned that to understand adults, spend some time with a toddler, and add into that the realization that even adults feel that way when they're tired.
I kind of miss my babysitting career. I occasionally get to hang out with my grand-neice (2nd cousin?) and it lightens my load. It gets me out of myself because I have learned from experience that little ones seem to have a radar for the most dangerous places in the house. I have to pay attention to keep them out of the knife drawer and the under-sink cabinets with the cleaning chemicals. I think it's because I get to be both nurturing and protective. It's also because I get to bond with them and I get invited into their fantasy worlds, which can be quite elaborate.
