    Grrr it just wont decide what its doing :( It hurts, I take the antibiotics and 2 hrs later they are ok enough to touch, then try to go to bed and its like a ring of pain round the outside of my ear :(

    THough what annoys me the most, is not the pain, or the feeling my ear is full of liquid, its the fact its my left ear and thats the side I sleep on so im trying to sleep the other way which is not going well :rotfl:. DH keeps beng woken up to 'owwwwwww oh !!!!!!!' as im rolling over in my sleep :rotfl:

    Ouch!!! Although the last bit made me giggle :rotfl:

    I'm on antibiotics too, fat load of good they're doing... I've had my chest infection for 5 weeks now and all the antibiotics have done is make my stomach do somersaults!!! grrrrrrrrrr

    Poor Jakes mum. I regularly do things to my other half. Last time he smacked me in the face. This morning I was muttering another mans name when I woke up! Strangely I had a perfect reason which made no sense after a pint of coffee!

    Right another update, sorry Jemma No 149: £7,439.74 paid off total paid is 52.18%

    Karenann went to ikea and found I can reuse the existing carcass so saved a bunch of money then remembered we have a box of the poles which we accidentally picked up the first time and got 100 for the price of 1!

    So tempted to go tomorrow and get the carcass. So saved over £150.00 so far on reuse recycle! My husband thinks its great but not when I text him 20 times before 11 to make sure he gets the van and how excited I am!

    Well good news bad news. Just saved £35 on kids karate graduation due to a bad school report so he has been banned from going.

    Before anyone panics academically he's flying ahead with a reading age of 11 at 8 years old, however his behaviour has been shocking.

    I go on the comps board on here and arrange them in date order, then fill in tomorrows comps today. I do all the twitter and facebook ones as well, I actually have a specific facebook account for comping so that I dont spam my family and mates, its actually an old gaming account I set up so im spamming a load of people from all over the world :rotfl:.

    I seem to do well with the email ones (again have a specific email set up just for comping ;)) though my best win has to be last year when I won an xbox 360 with connect, netbook, underwater camera and waterproof watch bundle. DS had a veeeeeeeeeeeery good christmas :o.

    Aww can you go back to docs yet over your antibiotics? doesnt sound like they doing anything . . though to be honest im wondering if mine are really horse tranquilizers as they are bloomin huge :eek:

    TBH I think DH deserves the constant wake ups after what hes put me through in the past, he has ha habit of tapping things with his fingers in his sleep, not too bad you would think but as he always stretches his arm over the top of my pillow, the closest thing to his hand is usually the top of my head :mad:

    His other favourite thing is to randomly lift his leg in the air while asleep :huh: which means I wake up cos my legs are freezing where hes kicked the covers off, he'll then wait till ive sorted the covers, lain back down and fallen back to sleep before he does it again :mad: I kicked him in the shin last time :T
