Hope you recover quickly and you are feeling better soon

Diolch Starnac! I feel fine:D Imposed inactivity is just not me:( I am soooo bored. Meal plan done financials thought about and more plans/ideas made. Lots of dead heading done and a bowl full of raspberries and red currants picked.................ho hum

Trip to docs tomorrow not connected with recent surgery but with something picked up in a blood test - nothing to worry about just need a chat with the doctor who always makes you feel you have 6 months to live! As I cant drive will have to prevail on the kindness of friends to take me as OH has a pressing engagement with some thermals ( not what you think:rotfl::rotfl:)

Think I am going to slowly file paper mountian and do some easy decluttering and photo taking for Eb*y next. At least being off work is saving on diesel costs which is about £10 a day!

Felt shattered last night but couldn't get to sleep - no obvious reason other than wide awake! Sat up and watched Q Time followed by This Week which I quite like but rarely get to see cos its a 'school night';) Interesting debates on the Scottish vote............. anyway up shot is I got about 7 hrs unbroken sleep which is fab as I often have broken nights which have become the norm in recent years, and am feeling much better for it - no fuzziness:rotfl:

So more pottering and sorting.A few financials to see to and I think I need to plan the seven or eight weeks stretching in front of me otherwise they will be frittered away and nothing achieved...

Breakfast first!

Well the traveler has returned from her Big School Trip African Adventure. A face full of sunshine freckles and smiles.A head full of stories, SD cards full of photos and a rucksack full of red African dust and laundry:rotfl: Nice to have her back safe in the fold..............

Enforced house boundedness has led to enforced financial jiggery pokery in that I have been looking at my current 0% deals and having a shift about. All good and all on 0% again although split across 3 cards but 2 of those are 15 month deals. I have closed a couple of CCs as they are just sitting there with a nil balance and I wont be using them again:) PADs working nicely for me. Got a few full 'saving tins' to count out and pay in over the counter towards one CC debt - about the only bank that doesnt have a cashier roll their eyes at having to handle MONEY in the form of loose change................:rotfl: It will have to wait until I can drive again though:D

Enjoying not having to spend £10 a day on diesel:D

Bleurgh a week of doc appointments and physio. Having a T*sco delivery today...............first time in along time but its a £1 delivery and worth it:D

Started de cluttering bathroom cupboard yesterday - bit late in the day so didnt get it finished and also site of surgery got a bit painful - hoping not infected - seems OK today and a dressing change tomorrow which I cant wait for cos its so itchy! Threw/recycled some stuff and a couple of things to list on Eb*y. Bedding, towels, spare curtains (going to donate to CS I think) wool and fabric store to sort today...............cupboard is large walk in affair and a magnet for anything - including forgotten presents bought for Christmas 2 years ago - that hasn't been given a specific home.

Blood tests have thrown up some un pleasantries - auto immune disease which is manageable/treatable and was something a grandparent had diagnosed in later life but I had no idea it can run in families. Its a bit of a shock to be told body has turned on itself but I think I have got over that now but I am struggling to impress on OH the seriousness of it. At first I thought 'Oh this wont kill me.Medicate and carry on.............' Well actually, news is not great if treatment is not monitored carefully and tailored to individual needs...............hmmmm long chats with GP I think ( not the one who is all doom and gloom:eek:) and with family me thinks. Anyway some things have been brought into sharp focus again..........there is always something!

DD2 and I thought we would splash out and have a well known pizza delivered........2 4 Tuesday and all that.Ordered on line cash back all very:money:...................delivery always takes a bit longer cos of where we live and delivery person is always apologetic as it usually takes 2 extra phone calls to find us:rotfl: Anyway we sat in garden and enjoyed it ..............for a while and then about hour later remembered why we dont do this very often.........both started with what we call Double F Headaches ( fast food) and felt meh for rest of evening:( Not great now been up since 5 feeling very low and still have headache - lots of water I think to try and flush it out.

Weather broken here.Feeling fresher.Planning a quiet day.

Sorry to hear about your blood test. A good chat to the doctor about managing the condition is a good idea. Hope with medication/monitoring you can control it well.

We are planning on taking advantage of the same pizza deal next week for our youth group. How did you get cash back? Do you mind me asking?

I used T*pcash back - log in there first and then click through to 'merchant'.Hope the youths dont suffer like we have!
