  • Had a rubbish nights sleep last night mainly because I was too hot,I thought my menopausal night sweats had gone away but they appear to have come back, I chucked the duvet  off at one point, I have been sleeping with the window  open but the police helicopter was out for ages last night so I kept it shut

    Work today was ok but I was really tired and my hip and leg was throbbing all day, it seems to have calmed down again now so hopefully won't keep me awake tonight.

    There was some excitement here at home, builders discovered an unexploded  WW 2 bomb down the road from us yesterday.the bomb disposal team did a controlled detonation today and DD said the floors shook in the house, we are a couple of minutes drive from where it was or about a 20 minute walk, she was recording a video at the time and played to to me when I got home and you could hear the explosion over here, god knows what it sounded like over where it was discovered. The site where they found it is on the way to the nature reserve where we go walking, I wonder if there are any more 🙀

    I now have three days off🎉🎉🎉 Im not sure what I'm going to be doing yet but I'm sure I will find something to do 😊

    I had a severe eczema flare up a few years ago, really bad to the point I needed antibiotics and steroids, I was literally covered in it head to foot. My GP suggested I took up chanting to remedy it. Thankfully she is retired now. She was really nice but not on this planet 🙄

    Yes they did, it was right next door to the campus and a big residential area plus the main railway line into the city. I was surprised by the extent of the explosion given that it was a controlled detonation 🙀

    I heard about that bomb on the news😱 Really scary to think they could be anywhere lurking 😱

    Sorry to hear you didn’t feel great earlier, I hope by now you’ve had a relaxing day and feel a little better.
