    Hi Taxi - yet another fantastically productive day!! I can't wait to read your debt busting progress when you are back in the driving seat (no pun intended)!

    Just don't do toooooooo much - you are still recovering!

    Hi Hypno...thanks for that...I'm trying to take it easy honest!!!...I'm trying yet again for a peaceful day tomorrow ..whether I get one or not is a different matter!!!
    Can't wait to get back to work to do some debt-busting but on the other hand don't want to go back IFYSWIM...I'm nervous about going back as I have only been to work a couple of times since we've been on this firm and can't think of half of the streets but...I guess they'll soon come back to me...

    I am sure you will be back in the swing of things before you know it - it will seem as though you have never been away!

    I hope you have a good day x

    Hi Taxi - hope all went well at the bank. Really lovely to see the sun today, even if a little blowy!

    Did your lovely grandson develop chicken pox? Sorry if you said already - I must have missed it if you updated! :D Hope JJ is ok though and recovering whatever was up.

    hi Taxi
    Seen consultant today and op due between end Sept and Nov - just waiting for confirmation letter.
    Will be off on full pay from work but have you any suggestions to make things easier for after op. I thought about doing some batch cooking for freezer beforehand - OH okay with housework but terrible cook:D

    Hi everyone...Hypno I need to update my weight loss..rather gain as have come off the diet I was on and am going to eat really sensibly and exercise...Sea I only went to bank to pay the money in...I do it everyday while I'm off as the interest is calculated daily...and it gives me a walk and fresh air....JJ didn't get chickenpox...thank god...it must've been a little virus and he's as lively as ever...Sophiesmum...well at least you have time to prepare...I didn't cook anything as OH can cook well and didn't have time...batch cooking sounds great ..also if you have room try to get quite a bit of bread and plenty of tins in...also as many toiletries as you need for home and hospital...nappies etc needed for little ones (sorry don't know age of your kids)...as if OH works and needs to visit you he won't have time to shop...also don't forget to get all your jammies etc for hospital and big knickers are a god send....make sure you have flat shoes and loose fitting clothes to come out of hospital with...and plenty to read...how long you in for....and are they cutting across or up and down...
