5 years MFW - Lets get cracking...

HelenDaveKids

On a bed mission. Stayed at a travelodge one night last week ans now need a dreamer bed. Have literally had a lie down on every bed in the area and cone to conclusion that will have to order one. Nearest to it was £129 more. My mattress springs have been sticking out for ages. Might wait till payday next week.

Ended up doing a late supermarket run last night (after music) but bonus was loads of 10p bakery items. Makes it almost worthwhile.

Today renewed gym membership and really chuffed with price, works out at £17 a month, which in cost equates to less than one session a week. Been tonight but have to keep pulse low or I feel quite unwell.
Also renewed swimming lessons so big spends.

Petrol light on so another spend needed v soon.

Going to view family photo tomorrow, a wowcher present from friend but imagine will get some hard sell on the "package".

Also free theatre trip with work colleagues saturday, as managed to snag some freebies on dementia related topic.

First week back were plan to do whole week, still feel rubbish but no different at home so just keep plodding on.

That's brilliant for gym membership. I have debated rejoining but at £35 would not get my money's worth. Will carry on with shred at home as that seems to work well for me.

What is the next step with cardiology? Hope you are back to yourself soon.

HelenDaveKids

Yes dead chuffed with price.

Rang consultants Secretary and my notes are on the desk but no letter written, did ask nicely so hopefully will hear soon. I'm going to be very pushy if they don't either have an answer or investigate further.
Felt rubbish today and came hour 2 hours early (husband v surprised as normally would stay regardless), still feel the same now. I have some hr staff sickness meeting s tomorrow or I think I'd take the day off (my boss is being brilliant), will see how feel in morning but may finish early again.
Not sleeping well, due to chest feeling tight and Wakes me up, so my mouth is full of ulcers, which isn't helping. Feeling sorry for self I'm afraid.

Payday, I think in the last 24 hours I have spent just short of £2000, unbelievably ridiculous. Gym, swimming lessons, New mattresses (bought after feeling carp today), music exams (fell where all have one) big shop, petrol, a tablet for Dave's birthday. Most able to put through credit card so can earn my points.

Shuffle ready and this will bring us to just under 20k. I love the big milestones. Also takes morgage 1 (of 3) to one payment off finished. :T

CathT - super thick question but what's wiotw?

I really am sending you a huge :grouphug:. It's pretty carp feeling ill when you're normally so active.

Take it easy x x x

HelenDaveKids

Thanks Tilly xxx. Never in a million years would think could be so different in one day and it last so frustratingly long. Feel last 2 weeks I have gone backwards but then I am generally more active, which perhaps may have made me more symptomatic.....
I think I appreciate things more though and am more intent on enjoying ourselves. Although I don't have any life regrets.

Sorry for butting in Helen but it means "what I owe the world" (ie) mortgage plus any other debts minus savings , offset etc. Hope you feel better soon xoxo

HelenDaveKids

Thanks wabl. Tried goggling but still couldn't work it out.

Tbh feeling awful (chest very uncomfortable) and added in, mardy (little mini cry in shower), this morning. Keep plodding on, temptation to say forget it, I'm staying home is at unprecedented levels. Hey ho, it's at least Friday. After alcohol free week, I can almost hear my wine going into a glass...

Weight back on track. Had allowed myself 3lb leeway from target (+/-) but last week was heavier post break, now back in my zone, although prefer to be not in the highest bit. Must say my stomach is slowly looking less saggy over time. Have read that it can be improving for up to 2 years post weigh loss.

Feel pants. Still constant chest tightness and feeling very sorry for self. Will slap myself in a bit and get on with it.

We have a mouse in the kitchen, dropped by one of the boys ... currently under the kickboard. Not sure how will get it out.

Have a few chores to do but my vavavoom is currently off piste. Hate feeling like this, but fed up now. Want to run like the wind....
