    Hi,

    I went to work this morning and come home an hour later! I was cleaning this grannies room when i came over all dizzy and hot, felt like i was going to faint. Grannie loves to chat, mid way through her chatting i had to tell her to hold on as i felt like i was going to pass out! Anyway, i didnt but had to come home. Good job i did overtime last week as i wont be paid for being off sick.

    Its that time of the month at the mo, and i always suffer very heavy periods around that time of the month sorry if TMI! I get Anemic quite often, so ive took an iron tablet. Now i have a terrible headache!

    Anyway, i better get back to bed. I hate daytime tv!

    Well i didnt go into work today.

    I still dont feel 100% better, Ive had a sore throat for about a week now and its also turned to ear ache now too. Probably tonsilitis, i get it every couple of months, the doctors always just says gargle asprin. Unless i get ear ache too then he normally gives me antibiotics. He said he cant give me antibiotics everytime i get tonsilitis or i will become immune to it. I havent been to doctors yet because i still feel dizzy but i will if i still have ear ache 2moz. So im getting dizzy spells, ear ache, sore throat, dodgy tummy, headache and period pain! ....Im such a healthy person! :rolleyes:

    My parents go on holiday saturday, im hope im better by then!

    Anyway, ive checked my account and CBK has paid in the £25. :)

    My mum was popping to town so gave her a list! Bless her:o
    Pay my Barclays bill £7.59 Ebay fees.
    Buy eve magazine £3.40 as it has free no7 mascara worth £11. (if im back to work 2moz might buy a few more of these to stock up on mascara as i normally pay £8 for one!)

    Ebay items have no bids on them yet but a few watchers, they dont end till sunday though.

    Just been looking at places to rent on rightmove again.

    I think we should think about moving towns to where my OH works. As he will be the one bringing in the money and has the higher wage. Ive just looked at the town where he works which is 15 miles away from me and there not many places available to rent apart from two flats directly behind his work! only £485 PCM! So not only would we be able to save £200 petrol a month but also £75 on rent. Obiviously we dont want to move out right now so, but if prices are cheaper there its deffo worth thinking about. The only downside is the town...there nothing there.

    Hi Maria,

    Just been having a catch up read, as I don't get time to read every day at the moment!

    Hope all goes well when you start trying for a baby, you must both be so excited, I know we were!

    I stopped taking my pill as of my pill free week, then did a test the day I would have been due on the next month just because was first time I could and was pregnant! I know we were very lucky though so I never take that for granted. I did the test the day after Valentines Day, and we had agreed not to get each other anything that year due to money, so I wrapped the test up and gave it to him when he got in from work :rotfl: He went 'what does this mean' and I was like 'well I wouldn't be giving you a negative one would I' :D

    I use mobile broadband after a fall out with BT. It does the job but it is pretty slow compared to normal broadband. Still faster than dial up, but I do notice the difference. I am with 3, and I have no idea if the speed is something that will be improved or not, but I hope so :confused:

    Hope you are feeling better now as well, not nice being under the weather ;)

    Glad to hear you are feeling better, its horrid having to have time off work and knowing you aren't getting paid isn't it :mad:

    I do feel very lucky to have conceived so quickly, sadly my best friend lost her baby at the same time as I was pregnant and couldn't deal with speaking to me for a long time, so that was horrid :cry: Happily now though she has a lovely little boy and just recently a little girl too :j

    The OH was happy to find out I was pregnant for sure, it explained why I had been so stroppy that last month, oh the joy of hormones :o

    Hope you manage to find somewhere nice to live for a decent price, I rent and my last place was horrid, the place I am in now feels like 5* in comparison :rotfl:

    Off to Mr T now for some shopping, my little boys dad is down to stay with us for a week so need some bits and pieces! And I will be very good and not spend too much lol :A

    Hi Maria,

    How are you feeling now hun??? I hope your still feeling a little better.

    I bought that magazine last week Maria, just for the £11 mascara lol. I wanted to stock up, but then thought did i want to spend another £3.40 for the same magazine. But its def worth it for the mascara, its a pretty decent one to by the looks of it.

    Sounds like the planning is going well, but you just can't wait to move out now and start your family life. Must be soooo exciting.

    xx

    Hi,

    I went to work today, Feel much better today.:cool:

    Im very excited about the future, although still a little confused of what to do first. Move out then TTC or TTC and move out at 6 months.
    In the perfect life i would move out with OH then TTC BUT we wouldnt be able to save any money if we moved at first. Where as if we got pregnant and moved at out 6 months that would be 6 months of savings towards baby bits and house bits BUT i would have no OH living with me for the 1st 6 months.

    Anyway, we will work it out.:rolleyes:

    Yeah the mascara is a bargin for £3.40....the magazine went straight in the recyling bin...not my kind of mag!
