Oh gosh, that's frightening, @Dimity 😢
I am sending wishes that you don't lose your vision 🤞
With the probiotics, I am never sure whether to take them while I'm taking the antibiotics, or afterwards. I generally settle for afterwards.
The soap that supposedly doesn't cause itching is $6.95 a bar, so yes, I would like a cheaper one if possible. I say "supposedly" as I've been on that soap now for a few days, and last night my palm was so itchy I scratched it raw 😣 I'm very disappointed, and have dropped the therapy lamp back to half an hour a day.
I achieved nothing yesterday, not even laundry. This morning I also woke up late (never a good thing for me). However I'm going out for lunch today, so am trying to get myself together. Plus I need to go out early to get some shopping before the lunch, seeing I didn't go yesterday.
Off to your thread to see your news...

Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?
I hope you got through the shopping and enjoyed your lunch @NatureLover . It's so disappointing about the soap and the lightbox, and your poor hands must be very sore as well as itchy.
It's unlike you to skip the laundry. I know what it's like to crash... From hints you've dropped in the past I do hope you're feeding yourself well at the moment.

Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?
Thank you so much for your kind reply @Dimity , and for being attentive to remember it's unusual for me not to do laundry ❤️
I woke up so late yesterday (8am) that I had no time to come online before work. I'd had a bad night so I guess that explains it. This morning I was awake at 4.45am and felt good, put on a laundry wash. But I wish I could get into a regular habit of getting up at the same time every morning.
I enjoyed my lunch out... I'm eating OK at the moment too, thanks.
Today I can stay home and do gardening and tidying plus more laundry. How about you?

Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?
I find keeping a sleep routine hard too @NatureLover . I'm too anxious and uptight to settle at night then sleep into the next day although I set alarms I've been waking several times during the night lately.
I slept all morning then spoke to a couple of applicants this afternoon. I'm not really on top of housework other than some essential cleaning. I got another grocery delivery but it seems more expensive than when I shopped myself. Hopefully I'll be walking to the shops again soon.
Did you get into the garden? I raked leaves from the path and went for a short walk - a bit further this time.
I didn't get the admin stuff done mea culpa.
Good luck for tomorrow especially if you're tackling the blackberries.

Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?
Well done for the essential cleaning and the grocery delivery @Dimity . Also for the raking and walking - that sounds like a very active day.
I wish your sleep was better and more satisfying.
I didn't get into the garden, and then last night I remembered it will be raining all weekend! Oops. It's not raining now but it's still dark so I will see if it's raining once it becomes light.
I did do lots of laundry and also baked a marmalade pudding on impulse!
Home today so hopefully more tidying.
Good luck with your day today 🤞

Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?
Yum re marmalade pudding. I barely cook.
@NatureLover thanks but the walk and raking took mere minutes... so I wasn't very active after all.
Very cold and wet here today. It was freezing waiting for a bus this morning after I gave up on taxis.
Tidying would be good. I did a little. And I met a potential helper. I'll meet another tomorrow.
Looks like a cold week coming up, and wet again tomorrow. A good day for decluttering?
yesterday
Re: Any diagnosed germophobes or hoarders on this forum?
Hey @NatureLover ,
I feel I haven't caught up with you for a while.
How's your health? Did you end up with the struggles of SAD?
It's been colddddd and rainy here too. I need to do some cleaning and decluttering. Let's see how this goes.
