    Oh no, hope you're feeling better once they kick in.

    A&E gave me some but they have made me feel sick and rather lazy :o
  • Got enough of my list done to just leave the rest until tomorrow. Afterall tomorrow is a new day.

    Spoke to manager about needing sick days this week and she agreed it was for the best so is collecting sick note tomorrow. Still feel like a failure all round though :o

    I know I haven't posted much on here but I have been reading your diary regularly HI. I have been having a difficult time at home both emotionally and financially and your diary is an inspiration to me.

    I have been so impressed at how you manage to be so positive and keep so motivated through many set backs. Sending you hugs and positive vibes for your current situation and hope you feel better soon.

  • Hope you're ok HI, sending lots of hugs to you xxx
  • Thank you x

    Think I may need to re-visit a&e :o But I don't want to spend on taxi's etc :o So waiting it out for now.

    Trying to do more from my list to keep me busy.

    DS has a trip out with school tomorrow and DD needs £6 for zoolab visit at school. I forgot :o So have sent mum the money to send with smalls tomorrow. Bad mum!

    I haven't even looked at what appointments we have this week or done the meal plan etc so think that's the next thing to sort and get it all up on the planner in the kitchen so we know where we stand.

    Must add to my list of things to buy an HDMI cable for DS. We have been gifted a TV (from a relative) for when his room is completed although nothing will be done to it for at least this week I don't think.

    Hey HI
    If you think you need to get back to A&E then please do so...
    Is there anyone who could maybe help get you there and back again?

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    Hi , if you need A&E you need to go . You need to be well for your kids. Can you not ask a relative or friend with a car to take you .

    Look after yourself .

    I'm really concerned about you, I think I can guess what might have happened, although I hope I'm wrong. If you feel you need A&E then go, you must put your health before finances at the moment. Is your mum supporting you through this, she should be whatever your relationship with her.

    Big hugs xx

    Hidden, I'm also very concerned (as we all are). Please go to A & E if you feel you need to.
