  • Oops yes, quite right Verbatim. I've amended it now Xx

    Gym again this morning with DH and then took MiL's dog out for an hours walk after lunch to a local NT place, as she's out for the day. Bums and Tums later too. I would be skinny after all that if I hadn't just eaten [STRIKE]Lots[/STRIKE] some of the apple crumble DS1 made at school today :o. Well you HAVE to test the bairn's hard work don't you??!! Xx

    Went to GP for DH this morning. She is going to repeat blood tests for his sodium levels and will check for diabetes at the same time, though she thinks the sugar cravings are seizure related. We have to speak to the Epilepsy Nurse about whether he can increase his sleeping tablets again, as DH is regularly awake from 3-4am onwards, but GP is cautious to increase them at the moment as we are also increasing his newest E meds too.

    Don't know if I mentioned it, but I made a complaint to McDonalds WEEKS ago for poor service and fries missing from DS2's Happy Meal. Heard nothing back in about 6 weeks so assumed they had just ignored it, but today I got a £5 voucher by way of apology from them. Better than nothing!!

  • I do no such thing mummy!!! You've done really well too Xx

    Fairly quiet weekend here. Family Fun Friday consisted of swimming and then using the MaccyD voucher to treat the boys. Saturday we took them both to Parkour, as they've started a little kids class that DS2 can attend. DS1 managed to trip over and bash his knee though :(. Work wasn't too busy last night thanks to the rugby.

    Today has been a NSD due to sore knee meaning DS1 just wanted to rest up at home. DS2 and I nipped over to my Mum's as my Grandma was there for lunch, and I haven't seen either of them recently as they have both been away. When I got home DH said he'd been having waves of fear :(. I wonder how much of it is about being left 'in charge' when I go out (though truth be told I leave them in charge of each other!!). I was only gone an hour and he has continued to have waves tonight :(.

    I have a sneaky suspicion I'm anaemic again. Will see if I can get a blood test done this week Xx

    Well done on your reductions: debt and weight :)

    It sounds as though you have had a good weekend. I hope DH'S waves of fear don't materialise into anything.
