    Oh Granny do hope you get the B thing sorted and do make a list to speak to the doctors about all matters. Make sure this is a double appt if you can so you have time and make sure they know about the B thing so can assist there too!

    Thanks all

    Appointment went ok - thinks general ill health is knock on effect from main condition, for which I'm due to have surgery. Thinks when that is done will get better albeit maybe slowly - hope he's right

    Drafting a letter for B for me and going to give me a copy of consultants letter. Can pick it up on Monday :T

    Wanted me to take week off but agreed was perhaps no need as long as I continue with the shorter days, 2 from home and 2 in office and then off until 7th. So that's what I'll do - overdone things a bit today though, so shattered now :(

    Bad news re job yesterday, moving to office 40 miles away. Can go for redundancy but not really an option with financial commitments and ill health.

    So glad it's Friday evening, I'm sooooo tired and really going to enjoy my weekend. Might actually get indoor decorations up, outside was done last week, keeping up appearances :o

    Enjoy the weekend and make sure you do actually take it easy. A few less Christmas decorations don't matter in the scheme of things. Blow appearances, you are far more important.

    Dear Piq if the decorations were just for the neighbours I'd think the same but DGDs were so upset last week that ours was the only house with no lights up. We only put 2 lots up and by we, I mean OH as they go on the garage roof. This year he's also put old tinsel on an outside fir tree, looks very festive :xmassign:

    Dear Brizzle and Pooh I had a rather busy weekend but also managed lots of rests in between tasks. Amazing what you achieve in small bursts :dance:

    Dear Robin nothing heavier than a glass of Baileys lifted. Despite that all decorations up and my living room and tree look wonderful :xmastree: OH surpassed himself and did the bulk of it, even the tree as I had to sit down while doing it and didn't really want just the bottom decorated

    Dear Lucky I had a nice weekend, finished up with a fantastic day with my 3 favourite little people. It's been one of those magical days that really make life worth living :happyhear

    I picked my GPs letter up today, along with copy of consultant's. not sure if they are what's needed but will scan and email them tomorrow Fingers crossed my dear friends

    B^rclaycard have automatically renewed our reduced payment and no interest plan for another year. Wish the others could be so easy to please

    Off to work tomorrow, short day, followed by facial - mystery shop :shhh:

    Night all

  • All good stuff! So nice to read lots of positives, especially after reading on Piq's diary that one of your Christmas present orders was stolen :eek:.

    Glad OH is pulling his weight. Hope the letters from GP and Consultant do the trick Xx
