    toots - I've been doing stuff this morning to try to take my mind off the cake... seeing as I couldn't do anything about it at 3 o'clock this morning!!

    Still no word from my friend... I'm wondering whether to call... although she may not have located her phone yet this morning!

    I know greenbee its just that you sound even more wound up - could you not just sit down and relax for half an hour? And do you REALLY have to go to the conference - it would make your day so much easier.

  • Morning All

    Not up at silly o'clock this morning but couldn't get to sleep until stupid o'clock (nearly 2.30am) so same thing really - I will still be knackered later.

    Boddy - decorating went fine but leg is raging now - having to furniture walk - begining to wonder if it is muscular as they would hve been tense to balance on the steps. So painful that I wish I didn't have to go to work but waiting to see what xray says - results next Tuesday. Also have loads of visits planned and audit exercise meeting on Monday with Manager (very scarey). But leg feels like it is buzzing/ringing constantly - I know that sounds odd but the feeling is difficult to discribe - then when I weight bare the pain is awful but right in the bone - most odd.

    Sorry have gone bleuh this morning but couldn't even turn over without shouting out in pain last night - pain killers didn't work so ended up taking 2 codeine tablets (cannot take these during the day as they make me wappy).

    Hope your friends husband is ok, Boddy

    toots - yes I do need to go to the conference. It's a small one, so it would be rude not to turn up, and it's a good networking opportunity given the work situation. However, I will certainly be leaving promptly!

    OK - washing is on the line, so I expect it will rain! Upstairs floors have ALL been hoovered. Bank website appears to be playing up (it keeps sending me to the .mobi site, which isn't very helpful when I want to log in to my online banking) so I can't move my money to my new current account! Obviously that will have to be left until later...

    Off to shower and dress... I'll have to decide what to wear :eek:

  • Well I feel even worse now - not sure if it is an aculmulation of all the pain killers as can hardly keep eyes open and feel slightly sick. Was going to work at different office today but think I will drive back as can take time over this an be in office less. Will still need to go into my office before leaving for first visit at 9.45.

    Have looked at Mum' housing list - new adverts are not up yet!

    Best go and get in the shower and see if it wakes me up.......

    Gonna have to change a couple of the things that are on the challenge list as they are dependent on OH first but he's snowed under with work ATM, so will swap for other things that I can do and need doing this week anyway.

    New Weekly Challenge...

    1. Clean all the inside windows in one hit.
    2. Fill in littleys passport form
    3. Get holiday form from school
    4.
    5. Cancel Credit Expert free trial

    Will probs do littleys room too along with my bedroom as it makes more sense to go up once with the cleaning stuff and hoover instead of on two seperate days, that's so lazy but it works :D Finished @ 2 today so should get lots done.
