afternoon tea

Christmasshopper

Good afternoon Snaggles - Yes thanks. My Money For Nothing Challenge is back on track. I have sold 3 items on ebay today which will boost my total. I am wrapping my parcels inbetween drinking afternoon tea and tidying up. I have to keep having a sit down because I am short of breath. My brown inhaler is out of date, and although it is better than nothing, it is not as good as it should be. I am relying on the blue one more than I should. I am trying to be more economical with the blue one today because I had it so often yesterday it made me shakey. Hopefully, it will be sorted out this afternoon.

Snaggles

Oh poor you Christmasshoper - I presume it's an asthma inhaler? The asthma nurse did tell me that you can't actually 'overdose' on the blue inhaler (it just makes you a bit shaky if you have a lot, like you said), so PLEASE take it if you need it - don't risk a bad attack. Take care.

Christmasshopper

Oh thanks for telling me that Snaggles. I was worried that I might 'overdose' on the blue inhaler so I was trying to leave a few hours between doses.Since I read your post I've had another couple of puffs and I feel much better.

Glad you're feeling a bit better - I don't want to be seen as giving out medical advice so please do speak to your own doctor/asthma clinic, but having a bad asthma attack is much more dangerous than taking your inhaler more often than usual. Try and relax too - for me, worrying about breathing makes my breathing much worse!

Nah, nothing really works lol! The thought of marmite doesn't make me feel sick though,don't worry - I love the stuff.

I'm about 11 weeks pregnant now though, so fingers crossed it should ease off soon (if anyone tells me stories of how they were sick all the way through I'll put my fingers in my ears and say 'LALALALALALALA....NOT LISTENING' at the top of my voice!!) hahaha !!

I didn't realise I was pregnant at the time but I was feeling terribly sick for 13 wks then it just went and found out I was pregnant. unfortunately I got pre-eclampsia and started to vomit violently at the end but i'm sure yours will go in 2 wks

Good afternoon - hope everyone is well?

I'm stuck at home ill again - been throwing up all morning _pale_ including in the street outside my sons school, which was totally humiliating.

Don't worry about it. I'm travel sick and have thrown up on busses and all sorts.

Hint: If a youth charges out of a bus, pale-faced and in a hurry, don't stand up to push in front of him then act like you've got all day. This may prevent the back of your coat being splashed with vomit.

I'm sure the other parents must have thought I was an alcoholic or something. I need a brightly coloured t-shirt that says 'Sorry for being disgusting, I can't help it, I'm pregnant - please don't come anywhere near me if you smell of smoke/sweat/food as I may vomit onto your shoes'.

How about the snappier: "Have bun in oven. May puke."

Could be quite a fashion statement - think it will catch on?

Get it incorportated into health and safety signage - you'd make a bomb...
