    Poor colin is hardly the build for prowling! But he would be grateful for any cuddles provided they were accompanied by the odd snack or two...

  • So I don't feel as bad as I expected to today, but I think I've probably got a chest infection. Hacking cough, chest feels like someone is standing on it, headache, sore throat. I'd definitely fail an MOT!! No cramps or bleeding though so that side of things feels ok thank goodness. I've called in sick at work so will be £40 down on pay day :(. Will have to figure out what I can do to make that back again.

    plmbl, I was a few days behind when I read your diary today. My goodness, you really have been and still are suffering. I do hope that your body, hormonally and virus, is now on the mend. Praying that now everything starts to go right for you.

    I totally agree on the potty training. DS2 will be ready when HE is ready.And they are all different..

    ps Who is colin?

    colin is Piq's cat! It's said/written that way as he was named by his previous owner and Piq is slightly :o about calling him that!

    Thank you for the get well wishes Pooh. I've spent much of today in bed but unfortunately DH has suffered for that and has been more than a little wound up by the boys :(.

    Feel really rubbish. Shaky and wobbly. Totally lacking in energy Xx

  • Just read back the last few pages of my diary and I sound like a right moaner! Sorry everyone :(

    Still not well today but I've managed a nice relaxing morning as DH and MIL took DS2 to his toddlers gymnastics! DS1 was no bother playing on his xbox so I've just laid around trying to keep cool. I slept with no blankets on and the window open and I was still burning up all night. At least I don't feel as dizzy as I did yesterday and my chest is a little more loose.

    I asked DH to get more pop and milk while he was out and he managed to spend £17.77 :eek: Bless him this did include two cans of sugarfree energy drink that he thought might make me feel better :A but the rest was on things like doughnuts and biscuits etc!! Thankfully we are still under £70 for the week (£54). Fridge is bare but freezer is still well stocked.

    I've been having a think about how to make up the £40 shortfall for missing work yesterday. I found some old gold/diamond rings when I was clearing out my old jewellery box so I'm thinking of seeing what I can get for those. They are from when I was a teenager and whilst they are pretty, I won't ever wear them again as the ring I do wear (apart from wedding and engagement rings) was a gift from DH and the boys. I'd forgotten I had them to be honest so they can't have that much sentimental value!! Will see what I'm offered, if it's a pittance I will just keep them.

    I've also taken the opportunity to enter competitions etc. fingers crossed for some wins :D Xx

  • Hi PLMBL :-)

    You sound more chipper today. The rings idea sounds beneficial, but you are right, if you are not offered too much, I would keep them too Xx

    Bless Hubby for buying you the energy drinks..... He does try, doesn't he :-)

    Hope you have a better nights sleep tonight, try not to worry TOO much Xx

    Yes DH is very trying :rotfl: I just wish he wouldn't put so much pressure on himself to do everything and then get so wound up. The last thing I want is for him to have another seizure.

    Bless you, thanks for that. Think I've got myself so wrapped up in the negatives I've lost sight of the positives! It may well be an inch at a time but it's all still going in the right direction! Slowly!!! Xx
