Morning all!


Am pottering today and trying to think of a topic for a 3k word essay which I have to research and write. It has to have a nursing focus as I'm a student nurse. I'm interested in tons of nursing and medical issues, but honing a topic down to a specific question to answer in 3k words which will be academic enough to be accepted by my tutor is proving one tough cookie to crack! Any ideas gratefully received! :eek:

xxxxxxxxxx

Just had to post this as I found it very amusing! My brother (who is quite mad, LOL) just made a suggestion for my nursing essay for uni.

To quote him, "Sh*t food but a clean a*se - a nurses tale........"

Ha haaaaaaaaaa - somehow I don't think it will make the grade!

Hugs,
Caz

pen can you please put me down for the Monday to Thursday challenge.

I have only managed another 4 AF days so I am up to 8AF for January. I am very disappointed as I have now drunk alcohol more days than I did in December. DH found a few bottles of wine we had put away for New Year and he has poured me out a drink and as a result I drink it !! I wish I had more willpower. My weight loss has slowed right down as a result too maman

Today I am starting again. A new start. I watched a Paul McKenna recorded program last night and have tried using some of his tools to help me to be able to say 'no!'.

flimsier Strangely despite being disappointed I feel happier today that I have done for a while.

Was AF last night and will be today as I am still in bed with a horrible bug. Feel dreadful so staying warm under the duvet. My DD is off school with it so she's alternating between watching TV and coming in for a snooze with me.

Thousands of middle class drinkers are knocking back dangerous levels of alcohol, according to health experts.
Support workers in Brighton and Hove have revealed they are helping more than 1,000 people a month who are drinking more than they should.

Really tired tonight . Just going to put DD to bed so no sneaking out to buy bottle of sherry or port so it is 17 today for me please Shaggy and Monday completed please Pen. I am over my frugal budget and trying not to buy anything (not even milk and eggs) for couple of weeks. So should be big enough motivator to keep the purse strings tightly closed when it comes to not necessary purchases like drink (plus my budget doesn't have a category set up for it )
