I'm pleased that after all your worrying your first day back didnt go too badly . Hope you feel better after the 40 winks. Are you back in again tomorrow ?
Good luck with the spreadsheets, I need to find some time to go through mine ,they have been a bit neglected this month as I've been so busy with work.

Hi perhaps I should have logged on and we could have "talked" the night away :rotfl:
Feel much better after a short nap, didn't want to stay in bed too long or I wont sleep tonight:o
Yes back in tomorrow and Friday and them Mon-Thursday mornings next week and 5 mornings the week after that.
Have decided I really need to knuckle down this month with spreadsheets, spending diary and just keeping tabs.
I'm hoping the sort out of the cupboards and meal planning I have been doing will help and STBEOH will have to eat what he is given or starve :rotfl:
Have a good evening

Well today has been interesting.
I do believe work have taken on board my recent health scare and have realised that something needs to be done.
Without going into too many details had 2 constructive meetings today about my general work days and what will happen if I am taken ill at work.
Came home via MR A, quite pleased as not yet used any cash from this month's salary (mind you I did only get paid yesterday:rotfl:
Need to get the beds stripped and some letters done this afternoon.
Have taken some whoopsied frying steak out to make strogonoff for dinner.
Also had a letter from the hospital today to say I will be having a home visit next week (not bad considering I left hospital 6 weeks ago):rotfl:
Right off to do some jobs catch up later

Well that sounds good news on the work front. So many employers out there really couldnt care less I feel about their employees health. Hope you arent too tired after today.
Good luck with those letters !!!
Dinner sounds yummy, I havent got my head around what culinary delights I will be serving my lot yet tonight , might just be pasta and sauce tonight as I will be in a bit of rush, but watch this space I may conjure up something more interesting like I did last night !! :rotfl:
Cant believe youve had to wait 6 weeks for your home visit. How crazy is that ? . I was recently discharged from my Consultant after 3 years of treatment and 6 years of illness. All of a sudden he decided I can manage with a few tablets and excercising three times a week at the local gym and all will be ok, but if I want to come back and see him I can ! ! :rotfl:As if its really that easy after being discharged ? Needless to say my GP has gone mad, but it sounds like its all money orientated and I had received my quota of money to be spent on me ! Ho Hum !!

Its strange how so many people seem to think lose some weight and everything will be ok. Funnily enough someone has suggested that I join the gym for exercise. My reply was when I can walk up and down the stairs more than once and still be able to breathe I will think about joining the gym:rotfl:
Enjoy whats left of your day xx
Well I did do another PPI letter and sent that off today so lets wait and see.
Hope we catch up at some point over the weekend, have a good one and enjoy the sunshine:D

Well have caught up with the washing (dried beautifully in yesterdays sunshine), had a good tidy round and caught up with the spreadsheets.
oh and shhhh:shhh: (even did a little bit of work naughty
I know but will help me in the long run)
Did think we were going to have the first BBQ of the season today but it was freezing... who turned the sun off. So we still had what we had planned but cooked in the oven.
Feeling quite pleased as still managing to stick to meal plans and use bits up (I did do a little shopping for items needed) so all good.
Back in again mornings only this week, which is good as I really dont think I had realised how tired I would be.
Hope everyone had a good weekend, catch up tomorrow

Yes I was fancying a BBQ at the weekend, but Mr Pinot wasnt around and last year when I attempted it myself for the girls and I on the gas barbie, I somehow managed to start a fire. Huge flames were licking up the fence and I had to phone a neighbour to borrow her husband to sort it out !!! Needless to say, after that escapade I changed my mind yesterday !! The sun didnt appear here until about 2 ish, but it did hang around for the rest of the afternoon, but was pretty chilly !
Hope all went well at work today for you and you arent too shattered xLBM July 2011 - Finally took control Nov 2011 DFD Sometime in the distant future ! :eek:

Oh dear sorry to hear about the BBQ, STBEOH did a BBQ today although we ate indoors as a bit chilly even with the sun.
For some reason really tired past few days, work a bit stressful this morning. I think they forget that although I leave at 12 I am in between 7.30 and 8 (bout an hour and a half before most of them)
Still need to have a catch up around the diaries but hope you and the family are keeping well.
See you soon
