Back to try again..

Thank you Abba, DS is the same with exams and his anxiety. Thankfully he does have the quiet room and extra time for exams at sixth form. Not something his secondary school would let him do. His head of year apologised about the meeting. DS is still unsure what he really wants to do, he changes his mind often 🤷‍♀️.

Thank you jwil, 5 1/2lb down so far 😊.

Another crazy week. My new baby nephew was born, he is absolutely adorable. On my side of the family that is now 9 nephews and 1 niece. But between mine and DH's side he is the 27th first cousin for DS and DD 😆.

One of my eldest nephews had a car crash, thankfully he is okay, considering the state of his car. Scary though.

Still at work. It has been delayed as they have been at the hospital with a family member all week. Unfortunately he passed away yesterday, very sad. He was only 40 😢. So have been there on my own this week. Have a job interview on Wednesday, will see how that goes. 

Blood tests showed I have recently had an infection (likely when I had that allergic reaction) and that I have b12 deficiency, have to take supplements and will hopefully start to feel a bit better soon. I hadn't thought about it being that but have read about it and all my symptoms are on there. Had my 2nd vaccination too, have felt fine apart from an achy arm.

DD and nephew did Go Ape yesterday with my brother, they had a great time. Went out with my sister for a walk today, DD took her scooter, was nice to see her and the weather stayed nice. Tomorrow we have weather warnings in place and it's supposed to be torrential so will have the day at home. Lots of jobs to do in the bathroom as we are redocrating again, putting new flooring down and a new shower. 

Hope everyone is well.

Congrats on the weightloss and the new nephew!  Big family!

Good luck with your interview x

Thank you jwil 😊.

Well didn't get much done of anything yesterday. My arm felt so much more sore yesterday, feeling better today though. DH did some of the tiling in the bathroom but mainly spent the day watching the snooker. Was horrible weather so just chilled out and watched films.

Have had an email to say a default has just been added to one of our accounts. But I have a letter here showing that a default was added May 2016 so have emailed them. If they don't reply by the end of the week I will ring, would rather not though. Have one more payment to MIL next month, after that I will probably just pay the balance on this account as its the smallest one.

Spent the morning sorting out and cleaning the house. Not got much planned for this afternoon, may walk to town to buy a frame for one of DS's birthday presents.

Got the job interview tomorrow, feeling quite nervous about that. I am unsure when my current work will be closing now too, they said they should hopefully know more tomorrow.

Hope everyone had a nice Bank Holiday weekend.

Glad you have had a diagnosis & hope the B12 helps. Also hope the job interview went well. Look after yourself! X

Hope the interview went well

Thank you both 😁. Not long been taking the b12 supplements but have definitely had a decrease of pins and needles all over, never even knew a b12 deficiency could cause that. I am feeling less tired too, yesterday was the first day in weeks I hit my steps target.

Felt very nervous all day before my interview at 3pm. It seemed to go really well and they gave me a tour. Would love to get the job as it is a wonderful place. One more person to be interviewed and they said they will be in touch 🤞. Least I got some interview experience if things don't work out.

DS also got offered a job interview today, for next week at the local craft village 🤞.

well done Team Robin at those interviews.  Its never in the bag, but you know when you have given it a good shot

jwil

Fingers crossed for you and DS!

Glad you are feeling better too

Robin09

Thanks both. I hope I came across well so will wait and see.

Heard back from creditor and default from 2016 was right, but will be keeping an eye on the credit report. Will hopefully pay that off soon.

Woke up in the night with a whopping headache, took a migraleve but didn't get much sleep. Had already planned to go out with my brother for a walk to try start training again. Glad we did as felt better for it. Got my longest walk on Strava since I downloaded it when I signed up for the hike. We was going to go for longer but DS caught the train home after his lessons finished, but forgot his key again 🙄 so was waiting in the garden for a while for us to get back.

After I picked DD up (who was annoyed with me because I sent her to school in uniform on PE day 🙈, bank holiday got me confused, although I did say she could have remembered too) we walked to town to get some salad stuff for tea, so did over 30,000 steps today 😅😴 hopefully will sleep well tonight. 

Lost 3lb this week 😁 happy with that and got my half stone award. This weekend will not be the best as its DS's birthday and I just had to order another one of those cheesecakes 😂 also out all day Saturday.
