    Don't work too hard...

    Glad you're feeling better. x
    Wandered away from the MSE track for a while but am back and on a mission! Debts cleared nearly £18k. Now to start saving ...
  • I am coming out in sympathy for you, we are having a snotfest - most attractive. I am tired, snotty, achy, generally miserable! A duvet day sounds fabulous but never works out that way with a 6 year old :p

    Hope there is not too much work for you to return to.

    Well done on the PAD. I have been trying to put an extra £1.00 per day in a money box so that will be a minimum of £30 extra a month toward something :D
    Just keep swimming!

    Not much to say today. Had a glucose test done at GP's today. Got blood taken from both arms. Beginning to resemble a junkie again :( Oooh just read that back, I wasn't a junkie before :rotfl: I just had so many needles stuck in me when I was ill a few years ago that I had track marks on my arms! :eek:

    Payday on Tuesday :j

    No PADs for a few days :(:(

    That's it for today :)

  • Lol, I know what you mean...years ago (before DD) my thyroid went madly overactive. I was having blood tests every week for a few months. Put that together with the fact that being that overactive makes you really jittery and shakey - I'm sure people thought I was on something :rotfl:

    Hope you get yourself sorted soon

  • Hi Gap, poor you still not being 100%. When I was poorly back in March it took me about 3 weeks to get properly right again.

    Get well soon xx

    Thanks girls :) I've struggled a bit with ill health on and off since 2002. Never anything wrong with me before that. Just a bit frustrating.

    PADded £40 today! I have hardly PADded this month so I am trying to make up for it. This takes me over my target for this month :j

    4 days to payday!

    Getting my hair done tomorrow. Can't wait! Desperately needs done. Budgetted for of course ;)

    Happy Friday :p

    Thanks mummy :)

    Hair is done :j Brought home some £2 coins as well so they are in the pot ready to PAD on Tuesday.

    Quiet day today. LM stayed with Gap-Sis last night as I went to a friend's for dinner. There were 5 of us and we had a really good laugh. The only annoying thing is that the car is still waiting to be fixed so I couldn't take it with me :( However, Mr G very kindly dropped me off and picked me up :D

    Going to Toby carvery for tea as Gap-Parents away again and have left money for us for tea! (thank you lovely parents).

    Payday on Tuesday :j:j

    :rotfl::T You know people will talk!

    I hope you are feeling better and on the up. I have periods where I feel so tired and run down - I go to the quacks and they take blood, it normally leaves a huge bruise and the tests come back that there is nothing wrong with me :o Sometimes I wish they would find something and that I am not just a useless fop with no stamina :cool:

    Love a good toby carvery - love even more the bottomless jug of custard that comes with pudding (can you see why I need to watch my weight!). We don't have one close by, I think it is a good half an hour drive away. You are making me hungry now :D
    Just keep swimming!
