Apart from that i feel fine. Thats the trouble i do too much then am tired and i just drop to sleep not good when i have ds to look after.
Aw, I really and honestly do know how you feel. I was hit another car on my way to work a while ago and ended up off for ages. I wasnt right for weeks (months probably!), which is actually how i ended up on this thread......anyway - My first day back at work, I thought I was fine and clearly I wasnt.
When I got home, I gave little one some dinner and went upstairs to take my work clothes off and literally flaked out on the bed! He got himself ready for bed and went to bed himself!! (Probably shouldnt admit this on the internet!! :rolleyes:) I woke up with a jump (id only been sleeping about two hours) and had no idea what time it was and seen that hed gone to bed and put his dinner plate up on the side in the kitchen.
I asked him in the morning, why he didnt wake me up and he told me that he tried! :eek: That still shocks me to the core to this day that that happened and am so glad nothing awful happened.
Anyway, my point is - you make sure you take it easy and look after yourself, some things are just so much more important than housework.

Can you tell we've missed you hun?
Now do as you are told and take it easy!
I got absolutely soaked going to town today. But my ring has been sent off to be cleaned and recoated, bought new blond hair conditioner, and collected parcel from post office. Oh and bought some new washing up sponges as well.
I'm waiting for somebody to do the washing up so I can clean the kitchen. :coffee: anyone?Chifundo Uzuri Siochain"All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost" - JRR Tolkien~~ Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, but love leaves a memory no one can steal ~
