Okay, this is what I need to do right now. I need to have a shower and wash my hair and clean my teeth because I haven't done it for five days (since Sunday night) and I feel gross.
I thought owning up to it might help.
I will come back and let you know when I have done it.

Lol... I can't cope if I haven't brushed my teeth after eating anything. Sometimes I don't eat because I don't have access to floss and a tooth brush! @Former-Member @Arizona

Tooo funny @Former-Member . I've never used that shampoo stuff.... maybe I should. Is it emergency shampoo?
Anyway, I'm glad you've found a place to hang out tonight. And even better, you managed to post! Well done.
To tag people, just put an @ in front of their name so they will be notified.

@Arizona sleep well. Or at least close your eyes and rest that body😊
