Been out again with DD up the street and had lunch with her. Mums appointment went well yesterday. When we sat in the waiting room she said I dont know where I am. So I explained again and reassured her. After a few seconds she said Well I wish they would b****y hurry up. He was lovely with her and she let him look at her nose. I was happy with outcome. Not happy at length of time we waited for ambulance back and she got upset. Was handy knowing people as they got onto them to see where they were. Ive cleaned quite a bit of the living room carpet on the main walk through bits. Will do a HHI later.

Toots No news on my volunteer friend yet.
sexymouse Hope you feel better soon.
Soappie That research is very interesting.
lil_me I think you would be brilliant at the conference. You are passionate and commited about the subject.

Afternoon all

Happy birthday Natty - hope you've not had too much snow - I've heard it's bad your way today

Sexym - glad you went to the Doctor's and got a proper diagnosis - take it easy!

It's blooming cold here but no snow. Have started on my bedroom and prepped for my meeting tonight. Am feeling chirpier today - I think waiting for the bus in the sunshine helped!

Off to prep dinner so it's ready for when I get back

Thursday is as complete as I can manage.

I hope everyone's having a good afternoon. Poohbear I'm glad you're doing the sensible thing and having a time out. No sense in driving yourself into the ground.

Triker I hope your meds are staying put now; you have my sympathy. Honestly, I think sometimes the side effects of meds are worse than the thing they're supposed to cure.:cool:

I'm going to have a bit of a sit-down now before I have to go and start making the mushroom risotto for tonight's dins.

Will have a skim through the thread and see how you all are and how tc done in SW today....I was doing ok till yesterday when the jacobs crackers and butter leapt into my basket in the shop and then, in the house proceeded to butter themselves and force their way into my mouth!!!!!
