The "Borrower"

From Lira: It seemed like only moments ago that I walked out of that strange gallery. I was thinking of the Awenian skyline, trying to imagine I was back there, and it seemed a gust of wind came up, and I had that dizzying feeling I am learning to associate with portal travel and Realm-hopping. Stern It was dark, and the mist rose as it often does, but the skyline looked hopeful. Then again,…

i've washed so many dishes today and I'm still not done. Plus I ran the d/w on Saturday and have started to fill it up again. I guess I cook a lot more now.

BUT it will be nice to come downstairs tomorrow to a somewhat clean kitchen, sink and counters at least.

Hi! I wanted to ask something. I started picking at my hands when I was little bc I noticed that little "bubbles" of skin appeared in my hands. It's not like they are full of water or anything. They're just like little bubbles of loose skin and they are kind of tempting to pick. I wanted to know if this is normal or what because when I told my therapist about it she said she never noticed something like that in her skin. I don't know if they appear bc I do the washing up without gloves. Thank yo

Hi there. You should ask a dermatologist. They are more qualified to talk about skin and health issues. A therapist may not know about the wide range of skin issues.

I've been having a problem with dishwashing too. In the last few months, my hands get very wrinkly, very quickly. Like within 5 minutes of washing. Afterwards, I notice that my hands get very flaky. Like a bunch of little popped skin bubbles. Or really roughed up skin, like I used sandpaper on them.

It may not be the same thing as yours, since I don't see bubbles in the skin, but I have seen them in the past. Anyway, I don't think they're much to worry about. You can see your doctor and they can tell you what it is.

I did a Google search and remember reading about dishpan hands. It happens when you wash dishes too long. I started using gloves and that helps. I also try to just wash dishes once a day.

Anyway, hope you get some help. Take care!

Had my college interview yesterday, went very well apart from this maths test I had to do. I hadn't realised my maths was that bad, but I mean I haven't done a maths lesson in fucking m o n t h s ! Just waiting for a letter about a 'taster' week or something. I then met Bee in the city, ran some errands before having chips an' blackcurrant sodas at The Birdcage. There wasn't much to do after that so we left the city quite early. We were meant to go to the cinema today but I literally have two pence to my name. I'm hoping my brother will lend me a few 'quid' so I can go up the city with Bee, Charley, an' Lizzie tomorrow; but probably not.

Now I should go do the dishes, uh.
