Aww Emz....Just wanted to encourage you - You CAN do it hun....Why not try an hour at a time and then take a short break....that way it's in manageable chunks....

Keep Going....I know you can do it....and just think what you'll spend all that lovely cash on!!

Thanks Helen - I know I will get there.

I tried SB last night and it felt painful - am I doing it right? I got 52 last night - could I have done more?

There is a counter on the left hand side of the screen in Swagbucks (on your home page) that displays your target for the day. If you reach it, you get bonus Swagbucks next month. You also get even more for consecutive days. I just try to reach that target.

I mainly do it via surveys, searching, offers and SBTV (if I'm desperate).

Hope that helps.

Evening everyone

Sorry I've not been around for a few days. My illness has really been playing up. I've had a sore throat, feel constantly tired and have been experiencing excruciating stomach pains. Cystic Fibrosis just attacks you from all angles. Doesn't feel like it's letting up at the moment.

To top it off, I've just found out that the nebulised antibiotic I'm trialing on Friday will alter my tastebuds like the IVs did - so everything will taste spicy . I'll be taking it one month on, one month off, but still .

I've started to claim Amazon vouchers again as there's a couple of things I want to buy to help managed my illness:

A spirometer so I can measure my lung function at home (and not just every time I go to the hospital) - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Piko-6-Digital-Function-FEV-1-FEV-6/dp/B0028LM21E/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1389467713&sr=8-4&keywords=spirometer

and a battery powered nebuliser. My treatments are going to take twice the time when I'm on my nebulised antibiotic, so it will help if I have a more portable device so I can maybe do them on the go or at my mum's. The one I've got now is really bulky and difficult to transport - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Omron-MicroAir-NE-U22-E-Pocket-Nebuliser/dp/B000UGYD48/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1389467862&sr=8-1&keywords=battery+nebuliser

CF is definitely not my friend right now

Hi Buffy. I've been too tired to work much over the past few days.

Have to admit that I gave up watching The Voice in the middle of last season. Might see what it's like with the new judges.

Hope you're doing okay?

Awful night's sleep. Our smoke alarm kept going off. It has always been a bit temperamental, but it took it to new levels last night. Between 1am and 4am, it went off 7 times!! I ended up switching the electric off or I wouldn't have gotten any sleep. It's mains powered, so we couldn't even just remove the battery.

Will have to call the lettings agent on Monday as this is the last thing I need at the moment.
