Anyone else goes to type in a # tag and their finger reaches for the 'H' (for hash) instead of the '#'?

Anyway...
My hands are much less painful this morning, just tired and achey, like they have had a heavy gym work out.

We have gathered together some bags of fabric and leather and will be taking them across Manchester to Stitched Up UK, the sewing cooperative, to donate to them.

However, between us and them is the Great Manchester Run, so we'll need to go the long way around to get there.

We are off to Levenshulme #RepairCafe this morning.

Only slight snag is that my hands are really painful. Right hand feels like joint pain, left hand more like sharp spikes of nerve pain, right up to the elbow.

I will need to see if I can get my tools into the car.

I didn't sleep well at all, feeling really tired, but got up early.
The laundry is in the machine, and I need to pack a few tools to finish off the shelves at the church hall before cleaning the church.

This afternoon I want to get in the workshop, if I can. Not sure yet.

I slept deeply all night, but still tired out. Not helped by being achey from working yesterday.

We are off to the community workshop this morning.

After lunch I have to go into Manchester for a work meeting, and to fix a faulty door lock.

This evening we have #MakersHour, see you all there.

I slept better last night, still many tiring dreams, but not bad ones.

It is bin day today:
Pink - Garden and food waste.
Blue - Paper and cardboard.

I will be going to meet Sue at work, to do the bins and clean at the church, and then we have a job to put up shelves in the church hall. I will be invoicing for that as that is my self employment work (I really must decide to retire from that one day).

We are taking Mum shopping this morning. After that I should do something, but despite sleeping all through the night, I am so exhausted and a little bit shaky with tiredness. I really didn't want to wake this morning.
I wonder if it is gluten from chips on Friday, coupled with non stop activity since then?

#GoodMorningWorlds
Slept better last night, but still tired. Still so very tired.
Mum has a hospital appointment later this morning. Sue will drive us there and I will wheel Mum around in a wheelchair, and then bring her home.

I need to think about work, but I haven't turned on my work phone yet.

I also need to think about the project jobs that are stacking up, and wondering which will give me a 'quick win' so it can be removed from the stack (and the workshop).

Another bad night's sleep. My eyes are very tired, my hands hurt, and I didn't want to get up.

I have got our laundry in the washing machine already. Then, in a while, I am going to meet Sue at work.
After, I need to finish off MiL's garden table and reassemble it to take to her this evening.
I also need to make up the board for the side of Mum's bed, and 'upholster' it with carpet. It will help keep the draughts off her on that side of the bed, and also stop her falling down the gap.

I will then pack and we will head down to visit MiL for the weekend. I might be a bit quiet until we get back.

United Utilities are outside. They are going to dig a hole in the road to fix the water leak.
The local birds are going to miss their communal jacuzzi!

The pink food and garden waste bins have been emptied, but the brown bottles and cans bin might now, as the lorry won't be able to get down the road.

We are off to the Community Workshop this morning, but first I need to add a second coat of finish to MiL's oak garden table.

#GoodMorningWorlds
It is bin day:
Pink - Food and Garden waste.
Brown - Cans, Bottles, and Plastic Tubs.

I am off to meet Sue at work in a moment, and then I want to get on with the oak table renovation for my MiL.

I don't want to do anything today, but I am sure I will end up doing stuff all day anyway.

Another rough night. I've no idea what my mind is playing at when it should be sleeping. So drained and exhausted.
I am glad there is no Repair Cafe today.

@Maker_of_Things that isn't good - I hope you get the rest you need.

@LewisWorkshop
Thank you.
Most nights this week has been plagued by bad dreams. Some nightmares, and some just confusing and troubling.

Last night's dream, I was stuck standing on the top of a wobbly stud wall with a long drop one side where there is a friendly, but would probably still like to eat me, pet wolf, and on the other side a very very long drop into oblivion....

@Maker_of_Things Sounds like you're subconsciously considering a difficult choice (that's not a medical opinion at all, I'm probably just spouting nonsense).

I suppose it's easier to tame a wolf while injured than it is to grow wings while falling.

I'm reminded of my aunt, who wouldn't take the ferry to Ireland because she couldn't swim. So she took a plane. I pointed out it was more likely that she could learn to swim in 3 minutes than it was she could learn to fly in 30 seconds.
