  • Oh scary just logged on.

    Signed off for another two weeks to be seen again Thurs week to decide on a back to work plan. I am feeling much better so should be ready soon but just nervous because I relapse at times.

    Got OH to drive didnt fancy going out in the snow. Its not too bad but enough to make driving hard on smaller roads and the school closed after lunch. Looks like the kids at home tomorrow.

    I'm plzed you got the extra 2 weeks off, give u the breathing and thinking space that u need, I wouldnt worry about relasping, its just the bodys way of telling u to stop and rest.

    At least with a back to work plan u can ease yourself in gradually, and at a pace that is right for you.
    Hope everyone ok xxx

  • :j :beer: Got my exam results today - A pass (63%) for the exam and a credit over all :beer: :j .

    It was hard work and I shall not be signing up to any more courses any time soon. I wanted to get a credit so I am so happy I managed it. It should also mean £150-200 reward from work.

    Been really lazy today so need to have a list of things to do over the next few days. Got a feeling though we may have the kids off school tomorrow looking at the forecast overnight. Just been shopping for a few bits that came to £38 :eek: . Spent £4 in the shop ealier as well mostly on rubbish. I really should stay in more :rotfl: .

  • Things to do

    Bedroom
    Sort out my clothes
    Sort out Girls clothes
    Put washing away
    Clean fridge
    Clean cooker
    Wipe and tidy kitchen surfaces
    Clean kitchen floor
    Ebay a few more bits

    Not planning on doing all that in a short amount of time so dont worry. I just wanted a list while I was thinking. This morning I was so lazy I just couldnt think ot anything to do although there is a fair bit needed. I really want thuis house to look different when I go back to work. No spottless just a bit decluttered.

  • what you like...the whole point of being signed off is that you rest!! ie that means dont do anything or at very least only do a little!! Well done in the exam! Lucky you getting a bonus too...never get one of those where I work!!
