    Hello!!!!

    I've just been talking to DH about you....were your ears burning :D
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    :( DH has just phoned me and they are making 18 people redundant at his work today. There is only just over 100 so 20% of the work force :eek:. Keep your fingers crossed for me today everyone...

    Sally I really hope he's not one of them!
    When will he know?

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Eek, I don't know whether to be delighted or scared!
    how's the mouth?

    still really sore, that's why we were talking about you ;)

    I was moaning to DH about it, and he said 'ask Linda if it's normal' You should be delighted, it means he has accepted everone as OK, and hasnt a problem with me coming and meeting you all :D

    Linda

    I'm going to Hull this weekend probably almost as far away from me as Manchester and I'm kinda using it as a trial run. My brother is giving me a lift over and I'll be catching the train home and I'm likely to be out for a similar amount of time so I should be able to work out how comfortable I'll be with Manchester. If all goes well, I'd like to take you up on the offer of a lift. Can I let you know on Monday how it goes (or Sunday if interweb is still working at home)!

  • Does it feel to be getting worse?
    If the painkillers are not having an effect then it'd be worth asking the dentist if you could pop in today just for her to check the socket.

    No, not getting worse, just not getting much better.

    Maybe I should still be taking painkillers. I sort of thought it should be better by now :o:confused:
