  • it's definitely too easy to over-spend when down in the dumps! Spend more time with the grandkids instead ;) it's free so far more mse and they are much cuter than stuff from the shops! I hope the newest addition arrives soon, I think cuddles with newborns are the best :)

    Hello my dear friends, all is well but still no addition. Poor DDIL is suffering and cannot wait for the event. I will be glad too as I'm not sleeping very well due to being on emergency call out. Don't mind though, it's only for a short while

    Doctor was great, listened to what I had to say and sent me straight away for full blood tests so we can hopefully discover the cause

    Told HIM today that likely to be off work for op before end of year and also not well because of possible thyroid probs. Is speaking to big boss for advice on a way forward and may result in occ health referral. Not worried though as its to help me get the best support at work

    Not much other news I'm afraid. Had my 1st nsd today, hoping for at least 12 this month.

    Hope all is well with you. No time to catch up in diaries tonight, just too tired so will pop in over the weekend

    Hi Granny, just checking in to see what you've been up to while I've been awol.

    I see you've not been around for four days, so maybe you're a granny again?! Hope so!

    Hope the blood tests come back soon and with good results x

    No still x2, little so and so is staying put for now, clearly intent on following his DF and keeping us all waiting :)

    Tests came back negative! Dr made me feel like it is all in my head and implied I'm making a fuss over nothing! Not a happy Granny at all. Had convinced myself maybe had found the reason for many ills. Thinking of asking for 2nd opinion tbh as need some help.

    Still ok day today and spending tomorrow with my 2 favourite girls which always makes me feel brighter. Spending has been a bit out of control this last month though, really need to get my mse head back on

    Did manage nsd #2 on Sat but that is pretty bad for me, normally have 4 or more by now. Car tax due end of month.

    H5BC debt collector want more money, well guess what they ain't going to get it. Sent soa to them to evidence no spare cash ATM and not likely to be for the foreseeable future either

    Have taken strength from Lucielle's diary though, I will be DF before I retire :)

  • ah no! I just zoomed through all my subscriptions to find your diary in the hope you were now Grannyx3! Hopefully soon..... ;)

    Get a second opinion on the doctors. I hate it when they can't find anything so dismiss all of your symptoms as made up and in your head, grrr! Glad you're having a good (ish?) day though :)

    Thanks dfw feeling better about life at mo but fed up of feeling poorly. Woke up this morning with an inflamed eye!!! It's gritty and blurred.

    DDIL will be induced on 22nd if he doesn't surface before then, hope he does for her sake though.

    Couldn't get an appointment to see anyone other than condescending doctor so going to wait until 19th to ask sensible dr for 2nd opinion. If its not my thyroid, it's something, even if depression and needs sorting out. If I wasn't me I wouldn't want to be around me ATM iyswim :) need to get back to happy, smiley, healthy Granny for DGS

    Lovely day with DGDs yesterday with only slight spends so LSD and today is too as I'm working at another office and treated myself to coffee and chocolate

    Not much else to report :) so bye for now

    granny you could have something like me. It tooks years to get a diagnosis. I would try another doctor who will actually listen to you. I hope you are feeling better soon.

    And hopefully a new baby very soon too.
