    Hi all - only scanned the posts briefly this evening and not been able to read yesterdays I'm afraid - so hugs to everyone who needs.

    Thanks for you concern Churchmouse - after my post yesterday I took 2 ibuprofen & had some h/m bread & cuppa, but headache didn't shift. It quickly turned into one of my 'funny spells' where everything seems to spin as though I've had too much to drink!!! It really is like a hangover, though I've not touched a drop in months. First time it happened me and the ex H were still living together but marriage was over - I was so ill I thought he'd drugged me! lol.
    The only way to deal with it is to lie as still as possible - I suppose it's similar to a migraine, but fortunately without the pain, just the nausea and gidiness.
    Normal service now resumed :D
    Best wishes

    Lol, don't be daft ! It was nice of you to ask. I don't often get like that - and I rarely get headaches, so am a bit of a wuss when I do.
    Did really miss MSE tho!
    Got blood tests in the morning (only boring glucose ones - was supposed to be done last week) so I'm not allowed anything to eat nor drink since 6 o'clock - it's driving me mad! 'Caught' myself eating an apple half hour ago.... Think I'd best go a nd 'chill' in front of the goole box in the hope it'll distract me from my need to have a cuppa!

    Oh and by the way Kaz, I will soon be able to make welshcakes in my sleep!! DH hasn't stopped eating them!!:rotfl: Soon as I make them, he eats them. Tried doing double batch, they DID NOT last twice as long!:rolleyes: Last night I made some at 8 pm. At 9 pm he says are you making some more? In his dreams! He and DS had eaten all but two which I confiscated until today!!:D

    Night ageandjo...and all to follow.

    Since having such a good nights sleep last night, I'm just not tired tonight.

    Ended up with 5 kids here after school to have a go in DD's pool....then another 2 arrived as if by magic...between the 7 of them they managed to make enough waves to collapse the pool - but they had so much fun I could hardly complain - so nice to see them enjoy themselves and all in such a safe way (made sure all their parents knew they were here and safe).

    Had parents evening at school this evening - all went well and I felt a little sad that DD1 is going into her last year of primary - where did that time go.

    DH has fallen asleep on the sofa so should go make moves to bed....hope you've all had a lovely day.

    Morning all :D I've never started the daily thread before :D

    Woke up at 2.15am, mr troo snoring and master troo's tv was blaring :mad:

    I'm starving and on my second bowl of rice krispies. The washer's on, DW to go on in a mo. Might do some ironing before everyone gets up. Maybe :think:
    Need some more wholemeal bread so I'll dust off the breadmaker - I haven't used it for about a month :o

    Hugs to those who need them hug.gif

    yikes, any earlier and you'd have been starting an evening thread :rotfl:

    I'm still watching the sale on game.co.uk, this hours will be my last before 2 hours of sleep, but I'm sure it's worth it....

    OH is tucked in bed, looking forward to getting there, even if it is only brief.

    sleepy hugs to all, though I hope many of you get more of a nights sleep

    Hi,

    I'm still awake too! Had a small op today and now can't seem to sleep.
    Hope everyone else is getting some sleep though.
