    Oh Granny, sorry you are still in pain with your teeth! :mad: You have my full sympathy, i too was awake at silly o clock with what felt like a tooth infection and am now the proud owner of a set of anti-biotics. Hope it goes away for you very soon :)

    It is pretty awful isn't it. Hope the antibiotics work quickly for you.

    Sadly my problem is likely to last for a while, after all my poor jaw bone has had foreign bodies drilled into it, so I suppose its got to be given time to get over the trauma and heal before it'll improve. All I can do is alternate the pain killers and hope I don't overdose, forgetting what I've taken when. If its still this bad on Monday I'll ring the dentist to see what he advises. Slept for 2 hours earlier, not sure whether as a result of the wine or the tabs but probably both :D

    Taken one of my strong back painkillers now and headed off to bed, hoping to get some sleep at least. Suspect Mr Jaw will wake me up in pain at some point.
    Lunch this afternoon sounded lovely though and I hope made up a little for what has been a pretty poo week

    x

    Lunch was great, even if it did take me ages to eat, as I had to cut it up so small. Treated myself to chips too, oh they were yummy. Couldn't have been better really, excellent food, lovely wine and fantastic company.

    Take care with your poorly mouth my lovely. Talk soon

    Oh Granny poor you. Sorry you are still in so much pain. I am liek you though I ahve so many drugs I worry I will forget to take them when I shoudl or take the wrong ones together and take far too many. I ahve new ones today to go with the rest !!

    Think your sleepiness could be a combination of drugs and wine, but I do advocate that I'm afraid ! :o Bad Mrs P !!! :D Even my poor doctor agreed that I was allowed a teeny tiny glass of vino when I begged him !! I was so distraught I dont think he dared say no !!

    Your week has been yucky, next week will be much better I'm sure ! Princess I'm sorry you are feeling rubbish as well !!

    One question though, am I the only one who thinks Grannys smilie person looks like a bunny rabbit rather than a poorly person with a bandaged head and dodgy teeth ?!!! :rotfl:

    Thank you my lovely, didn't wake up until 4am, so not too bad and luckily got a pretty quiet day planned today.

    Going to garage to book car in for hopefully next week, service and maybe timing belt, to see if that resolves its sulking.

    Then going for coffee and cake, courtesy of vouchers from dancestar5B15D.gifbugs

    After that we are going to pick up car from car park, hoping it hasn't sulked itself into not working because I left it yesterday.

    Back home to maybe do a bit of ironing and a tidy up and then the day's my own hopefully.

    Had a much better day today after all. As you know I woke at 4am and didn't get back to sleep until 7.30am, after trying different dr*gs to ease the pain.

    Luckily OH guessed I'd had a bad night so left me to sleep in and I woke again at 10am.

    Had a shower and then went to garage, car booked in for Thursday.

    Went to Asd^, didn't need much so then went to starbugs and had yummy cupcake and coffee, venti quad shot, (oops not very good for me, so don't tell DD, but very yummy all the same).

    Went to get car and it was fine, perhaps it decided to behave in case I abandoned it again.

    On the way home I decided to call into B00ts to see the pharmacist and somehow ended up in Outf1t. Bought a really pretty dress and stripy red pumps for £7 and £5 each. Really pleased, dress was originally £55, so a real bargain.

    So no NSD today but managed 16 out of my goal of 15, so pretty pleased with myself and no major mishap spends this month either. Considering I didn't think I'd hit my target was happy to beat it, even if only by 1. Next month's target is 20.

    Taken less tablets today so fingers crossed its on the mend. Made home-made guacamole tonight and it was really nice. Ate softish food all day, which I'm sure helped.

    Making carrot and spinach soup tomorrow for lunch for the first half of the week, to use up old carrots and greens. Then chicken dinner for evening. Oh working double shift on Monday so I'll have my girls all to myself, which will be fun.

    Anyway off to bed now. Talk soon. BFN Gx2 x

    Much better today thank you x

    1.5 lbs carrots, chopped
    1 onion
    2 cloves of garlic

    All put into a pan with a drop of oil to start the cooking process. Boil a litre of water and stir in a vegetable stock cube.

    Add to the veg and simmer for 20 minutes.

    Stir in a bag of spinach (or last week I used watercress) until it wilts.

    Liquidise/blend to a smooth consistency.

    Yesterday's concoction is very green but tastes yummy. Last week's was too thick initially so I added half a can of coconut milk. It was more orange too, funny how I think its going to turn out the same and it doesn't.

    Hope your flight was good, bet you are glad to be home
