No laptop for the weekend....booooo:rolleyes:
I am enjoying the time on my own, doing not very much;) Girls will be back at tea time tonight. All I plan to do today is a bit of tidying, ironing and that's about it!
The Crohn's pain has been niggling again this week, so I'm making sure I just rest and try not to let it flare up again. Hospital are nigh on useless - I've still not seen anyone about the results of the *urgent* scan I had at the very start of June
Anyway - moneywise, looking OK. Not spent much this week apart from grocery shopping last wed of £60 and a bag for DD1 for school, £16.
And....today on my scratchcards I had £5, 25p and 10p:beer: Very excited - takes me to £14 on one so I can withdraw.
Must get off and showered now then will do the ironing in front of the TV.I really need to sort out a new signature!0 -
And......(drum roll)...I've just paid off Marshall Ward:j
I just realised I'd said I'd do it by the time I started college (which I thought would be next Wed, but it's this coming wedd...eeeek!)...but the money was sat in my spending account so thought I'd just pay it off....very pleased!:DI really need to sort out a new signature!0 -

Hi Shaun,
Urgh I rang the hospital just over a week ago - they had told me in August that the doc I saw would ring me when he returned from his holiday, on Aug 18th...but I heard nothing. When I rang last week they say he's not with them now and I'll see someone else, they'll send me an appt out at the start of OctThe doctor wanted to see me with he results of the scan to decide whether I need surgery to remove th sore bit or to try a new medication - so still waiting to hear....hopeless!!!
I might ring again this week though as I worry about what will happen if it gets worse....what with sarting Uni this week and working the rest of the week I can't be unwell:rolleyes::DI really need to sort out a new signature!0 -

Hi again Milly
My advice is to chase them particularly if you are not feeling well. My brother had a combination of me and hepatitis and whilst the NHS offers treatment it is often at a very slow pace unless you keep chasing them....

So, wish me luck...will report back soon:jI really need to sort out a new signature!0 -
