(From the sound of what you've been writing for the past few days, it sounds like criterion b is a bit of a way from being met?)

Yeah. This may or may not have something to do with the fact that for two
and a half weeks, my dishwasher was broken (just got fixed today!)

Because none of the disposable plates/bowls sold in supermarkets are microwavable, and I can't cook from scratch due to fatigue, I have been living off of raw carrot and celery sticks with hummus; packets of chips (crisps); and hot chips for two and a half weeks... :(

(There was a loooong wait for a service call out to be available.)

Bu: I now have a working dishwasher, and ate some microwaved frozen meals featuring veges/beans/rice, so hopefully my energy will perk up soon-ish. ^_^

Will be in touch! ^_^
