#BlogLife890 - Outspoken fears

Writing that post Turning over a new leaf just made me able to breathe again.

There's so much on my plate, it's stifling but the hold over me felt somewhat released.

Family, the landlord, the UC, the DWP, just causing me no end of grief and problems and then me just exhaling and thinking, you're no longer going to take over my life, I'll just tackle it as best as I can..

Was the first time in ages I felt comforted. I'll be honest, if I can postpone the maintenance appointments, I do that.

I'm really on edge, with the male visitors prowling around like they own the place and they do no respect my personal boundaries.

But one coping method is to get it over and done with, to book or not cancel the appointment, so tomorrow's one is still on, though I was so tempted to put it off, I didn't, so good for me.

For enduring something that makes me shudder. Today (Wednesday), I've wiped around the bathroom sink and that alone tired me.

Going back and forth, getting the various cleaning supplies and mixing the hot water concoction of bleach and liquid soap and/or washing up liquid.

I also need to hang the washing and wipe around the bathtub. Oh another tip because I think the sink is unclogged again.

While I was looking in the cupboards I saw some old bath liquid soak and because it was cheap I had stocked up, not knowing the store brand would irritate my skin.

So I had a few bottles of that leftover that I forgot about, so instead of buying and wasting washing up liquid, instead I used those to pour down the sink overnight, maybe 3 bottles I think.

And I also got around to using the mini cute red plunger, Mama bought me.

Those two combinations helped. I watched a Youtube video explaining how to clear the sink and his advice was to plug up the hole gap at the side.

Fill the sink with some water, then plunge a few times. I didn't plug it up because it seemed to be fine already but that was the advice for clogs, so though I would share it.

Gosh I also have to take out the bins. I'm spreading out the chores throughout the day, it's doable then.

As usual I haven't munched so I took out the pakoras and some ice water and will eat that and it's only 1pmish so a normal time for once.

Oh yesterday the craziest thing happened. I woke up at maybe 6 or 7 and I checked the phone, the screen was fully bright and it was boiling.

I had it under my pillow and it never switches the screen on, to wake it I have to press the side buttons a few times, so how it got on is bizarre, plus put itself on high illumination is nuts. 

I quickly switched it off and left it on a cool surface. I wanted to charge it because the screen had drained the battery but when it's hot like that, leave it alone, do not risk frying the battery.

By the time I woke up a few hours later it was nice and cold and I stuck it on the charger with no issues.

You'd think they would have addressed that issue by now, I've always had overheating phones, it's ridiculous as most batteries are not even removable.
