Glad you're feeling better today: what a pain about your Sunday shift though.
Isn't it great when it stops raining! That's one thing to consider with a park home: the sound of rain and/or squirrels on the roof! I expect they are soothing in their own way, though and you'd soon tune them out and have to listen for them if anyone commented.

I spent the day at DD1s today and we had a nice day, we took the DGC to the playgroup and I spent some time doing some drawing and sticking with DGS1,we then went back to her house and spent the afternoon there amusing ourselves,I'm not feeling that good today, my chest is quite wheezy today and I have had a headache all day,I'm back at work tomorrow but only on a late so not too bad,I don't have a clinic so will be in the ward, hopefully it won't be crazily busy,I can have a lie in tomorrow so that's a bonus
I watched the second episode of the drama Flesh and Blood tonight and I'm really enjoying it, it's very intriguing and I don't have a clue whodunnit 😂 I'm going to have to be speedy tomorrow night because it starts at 9 and I don't get in until quarter too, I don't want to miss anything, I'll have to pause it while I have my shower 😂

Yesterday at work was interesting as I was working on the surgical part of our ward,I used to work here all the time but nowdays I only seem to do it every so often,I actually really like working on there because it's fast and busy and before you know it the day has gone,I was working with one of our sisters yesterday and she never works on there so it was a bit a baptism of fire for her,we managed to get through the day without causing too many problems though,she must have been worried though because she sent me a message last night saying sorry for the rubbish day, I had actually left work feeling like I'd had a really nice day, there was no stress and lots of laughter,so I replied and told her so 😊
Today is my day off and i have to pop into town,I'm going out for a meal on Saturday and want to wear jeans, but although they are all in good condition they are a bit faded,I was going to buy a new pair but I've decided to just buy some blue dye and dye one of the pairs I already own,I've done this before and they came out really nicely,I'm thinking if it doesn't work I can pop into town on Saturday and buy some cheap jeans instead 😊
I also need some bread and bits for lunch so will get that while I'm there, the only housework I've got to do today is to change my bed so I can chill out a bit
I still have a bad chest and work up this morning with a banging headache plus runny nose,I've already done that part of the cold so I'm not sure why it's come back,I took some Sudafed and the headache has gone now,I really hope it goes away soon I'm getting annoyed with it now
Right I'd better get ready and get myself out of the house,have a nice day everyone 😊Original Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,736 Owed = £10,8944 -
Hope you are on the right side soon of being better . The cold weather is annoying me terribly now. Great idea to dye your jeans , may save you a few pounds .Enjoy your meal on Saturday whatever you end up wearing 😀Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.2

Hope you're feeling better this weekend.
I'd like a little annexe when I'm older. I actually did look at the park homes as a future thing for me too. I can't imagine being with anyone else, so would just like to look at something for me for the future. x
