Hello Gang,
Hope all is well and good, if not please have a HUG...
I have some good news to share. I have been working really hard with my counsellor and we have reached a decision today. I am returning to work!!
I am ever so scared and anxious but if all goes to plan I should begin working again on 28th Feb. The Friday before I have a counselling session and a returning interview with my nurse and new manager. They are going to try me on a graduated scheme of working a few days a week and working up to full time over 2/3 weeks and I will have a support system in place of my Occy nurse, HR guy and counsellor so that should help. Ick.. I am in a right fluster over how I feel about it but I am kinda ready and as long as I do the work on setting my boundaries as Counsellor advised and speak out when I do need support and DO NOT try and take on the weight of the world I should be ok.
Right ref flying..
The hallway is now completed painted :T:T:T:T I LOVE IT.. the sunny yellow is so good for my mood.
I now have to organise myself a bit ref-this weekend so am going to create my own flying list.

Happy Birthday Natty xxx
DH woke me up at 4am and I couldn't get back to sleep so I'd done an hour of ironing before the little ones came downstairs at 6.45. I will pay for it later at the girls night in tonight.
Something in my broken hand went clunk this morning and it is swelling up again. I can't understand it I wasn't doing anything it just went. I've rubbed in loads of arnica and am hoping the DS I am taking for my knee will take down the swelling.
I've been to the Venue for DH's 50th Party and have now got some ideas floating around my head for decorating it.
I must grab some lunch then I'm going to tackle the never ending ironing.
Hope everyone is having a nice day and comisserations for those having a tough time of things.0 -
Just popping in to say thank you to everyone for the birthday wishes, and just what I needed to cheer me up too

Am off to my friend T's for an old fashioned tea party - her kids want to throw me a party the old fashioned way with jelly and ice cream, sarnies and sausage rolls etc..
Have been a bit busy the past few days, but am hoping that things will slow down now..I really must get myself more organised I feel like I have been neglecting all my friends on here.
Hugs and spoons to everyone, you all deserve one for being such lovely people. Especially to Toots and LL..
Flying wise - I've washed up, hoovered, thrown out the rubbish, brushed the dogs, seen my care worker and decluttered an episode of Desperate Housewives.Mortgage Free as of 20.9.17Declutter challenge 2023, 2024 🏅 🏅⭐️⭐️
