And cheese platter tonight when my husband is home!  Yay for all the tasty noms (despite my very poor performance obtaining the groceries this week!).

I've just come to feel like we're never brexiting! We're just going to constantly blag our way to more and more delays so they hope we forget about it altogether.

Thankfully I can mostly ignore it when I don't choose to actively look! :D I don't have live TV and don't listen to the radio so I get my news on it when I choose to look into it (which can be helpful and hurtful lol)

A friend passed away from cancer on Saturday, which was completely devastating. But it's led to people all over the world sharing their happiest memories and photos and those have really made me smile. Knowing she's not in pain, and left such an indelible mark on all of us is the thing to hold onto.

So sorry for your loss Margo :( Is she the person who was working on that art installation piece that came to London you had mentioned before?

Yes, and because my stomach had been so bad I didn't get to cross paths while she was here :(

Margo, I am so sorry for your loss.  You are doing the right thing by holding on tight to the happy memories.

My LMH:

Sleep study equipment came today after being contacted only yesterday by the clinic, and I am one step closer to knowing whether or not it is sleep apnea that is causing my quality of sleep to be so poor.  Yes! *fistpump*

Good luck Heyjay
I was just thinking the other day about how much my life is different after treatment for sleep Apnea.  Mostly because last summer's holidays were the last without it.  It's soon much nicer now.

I just went camping last weekend for the first time with my machine and it was fine. I bought a giant battery that kept it going all night.
