    Oh Dragon - this is not good. You both take care of yourselves. Bloody employers - what is it that makes them think they can treat people like this. Noone should be made ill by their work situation - yet here we both have other halves who are getting just that. Makes me really :mad:.

    Lots of deep breathing and rest - then when you are feeling better get some advice - this can't be legal. Big hugs.

    Thanks mizmir - Mark is just looking for another job - if he needs to take a slight pay cut we can cope (just about! Luckily I have loads of stash and so my money can go into the pot - I am unfortunately tied into a phone contract so can't get out of that for another year)

    Thanks El - Money shouldn't be too bad but obviously everything is not as rosy as it could be (hmm wonder how soon I can pay off my CC!)

    okay with everything that happened over the weekend and Monday my weight decided to go up :mad: - mizmir and I have a "lose a pound a week" challenge going and I obviously have not succeeded! I said (on mizmir's thread) that this week I need to lose 3 pounds :eek: but she persuaded me to stick with just trying to lose one!

    Dr Dragon has applied for a couple of jobs so watch this space :D

    Okay Thursday in the Dragon household - Dr Dragon is having headaches (we hope this is the stress decreasing because as it increased he got headaches!), I have an appointment at the Pain Clinic (oh joy, oh rapture, oh rapture, oh bliss!! can you tell I am looking forward to this ..... NOT!), but in other news "playing scrabble" is paying off! 2 pounds off since yesteray :rotfl:

    Sunday has arrived - the pain clinic went well I am down to one visit a year (good news because I hate hospitals - not so good as it really means there is nothing else they can do and I just have to learn to live with the pain :cry:), in other news with Dr Dragon being off he is paying for everything so I am saving money which should mean I can shove a bit more onto the CC this month coming - so that should help!

    Weight wise - this is coming off apace, at this rate I will be into the next stone level before Wednesday this week! Currently weighing in at 21-3.5 and on Wednesday just gone I was 21-7 :eek::D:eek:
