    Thanks for your input everyone. I went to see my supervisor at work today and explained why I don't want to work 2 days running. We've left it as I'm definitely working this Friday, but she will try to get cover for Saturday. If not I'll have to work it this time, but I won't be doing it again without proper warning, if at all.

    DH's waves came to nothing last night thank goodness. I don't think I explained myself properly yesterday, assuming that all you know what I'm talking about with 'chewing/eating'. The unexplained and incontrollable mouth movements (that make it look like he is chewing something but his mouth is empty) are usually a precursor for a simple/partial seizure or full tonic clonic seizure for DH. In the last 23 weeks I haven't seen that in him at all, as it's not normally present in his mini (waves of fear) seizures. It felt more serious yesterday than in the previous 23 weeks, and like we are building up to something bigger :(. Pleased to be wrong thus far.

    Counsellor again today, really finding it useful :D. Clubbercise tonight :j, equally useful. Random side note, have used my 20 free eb@y listings for this month so have to wait for July to list some more. Not so useful!!

    Nicky, we have had rain like you wouldn't believe today!! If you find some sunshine, please send it my way! Xx

    Hi PLMBL

    Totally fallen behind in reading diaries lately as life has been silly busy, so only read you last couple of posts.

    Do hope that hubbys chewing is a false alarm and not brewing trouble. Fingers crossed.

    Great to hear that the counselor is helping and Clubbercise sounds great fun. i have started Monday morning Yoga and that really sets me up nice for the week ahead. Nice and calming for my crazy brain :o

    Hope you got some sunshine today and the rest of your week goes well.

    No sunshine here Steph! Heavy rain instead :(. Your Yoga sounds good, it's something I've never tried but would like to.

    Sparky, chubberise :rotfl:, love it! If you are referring to fat class I lost 3.5lbs last night :j and reclaimed my 3 stone off. DH lost 1lb and only has 2.5lbs to go to target.

    Work has had a positive outcome - I'm now not working Friday at all and I'm back to my normal Saturday. This is the best result, though it has been a right hassle to get to it. I'm pleased I spoke up for myself though.

    Tonight DS1 has been to The Hoppings (Fun Fair) with a friend and his Mum. It cost me £20 for the privilege, however I'm grateful for her taking him as it would have cost a lot more for us all to go. It's only in town for a week and I was just going to ignore it :o.

    Won £3.20 on the eurosquillions last night.

    Evening all!

    Nicky, the sunshine would be much appreciated! It's done nothing but rain all week :(. It's supposed to be nice tomorrow, rain again Sunday and then nice all next week. Fingers crossed Xx

    Things have been ok the last few days, been working out lots and did an extra clubbercise class (which I'm feeling guilty about as it was another £4 spent on me :o). Weighed in some old clothes though and got £4.95 to balance the books!!

    You've earned that clubbercise class a million times over, Lucky!
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?
