    back in the land of the living....

    do you think the time spent at the Falls clinic was a good investment?

    I am reading a lot about fatigue management at the moment, published by our local specialist clinic. I've got a GPs appointment after Easter I'm thinking about being referred.

    Hope you're back online, and that you have a relaxing weekend.
    As a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or
    What does the saying say.... When life hands you lemons, make lemonade
    Or as my Mum would say, brush yourself down, tomorrow is another day or
    Fake it, to you Make It

    Please say hello my new diary: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6578460/still-dancing-to-blow-the-debt-clouds-away

    Bubbles~~Yes, I think a good time investment.
    Was physically & emotionally exhausting & there were a few tears.
    We shall see.
    On your diary you spoke of fatigue management & RAISE.
    On goggling can only find something relating to Australian(I think) HGV drivers.Can you help?


    DEcluttering continues.
    Beanies anyone?
    I almost cant sit down for decluttering if that makes sense.
    Taking my mind off things which is good & changing the house's energy.
    Still having trouble sleeping.

    Oh yes, always wait and see. Sometimes they don't come out with things that aren't complete crap.

    The only thing I can find (as obviously I have a vested interest too) is this: http://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736%2810%2960959-2/fulltext This is rather technical *and* paywalled... :eek:

    Edit: And having read through it - it's bollox...

    Yep - drag everything out to sort it, and realise you've ran out of room...
