Ho, hum.... It wasn't a good day.
I continued to plod.... And [STRIKE]fight [/STRIKE] my fatigue.
Spent some time in my office - tring to finish oestopaths accounts- realising yet again information was missing.
DH arrived home and in deciding what to have for tea .... We ending up having a barny..... I had got some meat out for tea, but was so tired didnt want it, and he DH got frustrated as I didn't know what I wanted.... Well I did a takeaway burger.... Unheard of in this house, and you guessed it, I had nothing in the energy tank, to go out for one. Plus in my heart of hearts I didn't want to spend money on eating out/takeaway.
I ended up with tinned ravioli on toast, and vimto jelly and ice cream :T:T.
On reflection.... It was a small meal that was about all my body could cope with.....
I also managed to work things out with DH rather then stomp off to bed when I just couldn't articulate my needs... Which is what I often do. ( I do thank bake off for me wanting to stay put on the sofa and watch it
)
DH was very patient bless him, as along with :eek:of fatigue I worked OT I was ovulating :rotfl: and so on top I was feeling very unbalanced and emotional....
Evening ended well snuggled on sofa for Bake Off well done Nancy :T and giggled in bed with the lap top playing Extra Slice.... This programme has just been the icing on the cake
