    do you have any echinacea (sp) in the house works a treat for me
  • I agree with taxi(Hi taxi:beer: ) about the 'burn-out'. I've never met you and probably never will, but I can still worry about you!

    I thought your Uni job was just for Mondays and here you are about to do a third day this week. I know you want to clear your debts etc. asap but please don't wear yourself into the ground.

    Don't want to hijack your diary but I used to be a workoholic and thrived on it until it started to go pear-shaped and the only one who couldn't see the signs was me:o . I ended up seriously ill and had to give up my job altogether. Although I made a 'full' recovery I'm not the person I was. My confidence took a severe knock as I realised that I couldn't cope with the one thing in life I thought I was good at

    I know this won't happen to you as you seem to have a close family unit and lots of people who care about you but then, I didn't think it could happen to me either:rolleyes:

    Take care of yourself

    Hey hypno - hope the sore throat doesn't develop into anything worse.

    If it does, I think it's clear you are instructed by a few billion of us to REST.


    OK...? :D

    Evening hypno. Can I add my vote that you need to REST REST and REST some more!!! Mmmm, think I got my point across. I think you need to tell your body that you haven't scheduled illness in to your busy timetable. Hope you're on the mend soon.

    On a work note, how's your business going? Is hot stones one of the courses you've done? I've just done a taster day and it was great fun. Catch up soon xx

    PS Don't forget to REST!

    Morning! I came home from college and more or less went straight to bed. Very tired and full of a cold. I slept badly, so feel crappy this morning. Oh well, once I get up and going, hopefully I will feel ok.

    So, another day at work today - could do without it, but once today is over, I am back to just Mondays. I am only doing these extra days to cover holidays, but that ends today, so back to "normal" soon.

    Have a good day, everyone, and hope you don't start sneezing!

    Thanks Snaggles, lovely photo of Natasha on your Avatar, by the way!

    I have amended my signature for a while - thought that while I am not overpaying as I used to, I might get demotivated as far as the debt is concerned, even though the ski total is rising, so rather than risk feeling a failure (which I don't, but equally I don't want to!) I have taken out some of my previous expectations!

    This doesn't mean I am giving up, just hoping to take some of the pressure off that I put upon myself.

    See, I am listening to you lot about burnout etc!

    Morning all
    I think you're been very sensible Hypno and no it is NOT giving up it's just releasing a little bit of the pressure for now to ensure success long term.
    Had a FAB day yesterday-front row seat at the TV studios, quick chat with the lovely Mr O who also signed a birthday card for a friend for later in the year for me and the show was hysterical-Paul O'Grady at his most caustic (off camera even funnier and a lot ruder :) ) and caught up with some friends I've not seen in ages (and kept to budget too !!)

    bloomin glad to hear it madam!!!!!!:rolleyes: you take care of yourself now ya here!!! early night tonight, fluffy dressinggown, comfy sofa and a cup of horlicks or ovaltine (actually ovaltine is meant to be better for you so go for that instead!!)

    can't say i blame you for cuting the challenges etc back a bit, atleast you're taking the pressure off a bit.

    Big hugs for today. xx
