    Are you part of the trial? I've done two tests and not had any feedback from either x
    I have been part of a trial through a hospital to do with my lungs , I just get the message that everyone gets who has been tested and then I let them know . I am finished now though as it was only for 3 months . 
    Ah ok,
    I'm part of the Oxford national trial. I've had no results back yet from either test and I am down to be tested weekly. X

    I’m glad you’ve had a good week off and managed to meet a friend for a walk along coffee. This week has gone so quickly - I don’t know where time is going....maybe because I’m snoozing through a fair bit of it 😏😂😂
    I haven’t been to the big shopping centre since February - seems like another lifetime when I made a day of it and sauntered around there. We will be able to do that again one day......
    Have you had the gks this week?

  • I picked the GKs up from school last night and we had a lovely 90 mins together . I miss having one of them with me on a Friday at the minute probably because all the plans I had for my free day have been scuppered at the minute just like the rest of the uk. 
    Today I got up early , have done all the housework, washing is on the electric airier . I am meeting a friend at a farm for an outdoor coffee . On the way home I have 2 parcels to pick up . I intend spending the evening watching Chesapeake Shores on Netflix. We got paid on Friday but I am still on last months budget as I run from the 18th . Will fill the pots up again tomorrow. Normally I have Nov and Dec Xmas money to use for the Xmas markets and my birthday treat but obviously won't be doing that this year so may get a few little extra treats for family for Xmas instead. 
    I have an appointment for my haircut Monday can't wait. Niece is still unwell , has lost weight but says her sense of smell is coming back slowly. It's the tiredness that is flooring her and she is only 28 . 
    Best get going then.

    Good to hear your niece is getting her sense of smell back, how long has she been ill for,the tiredness is something else with this illness, I've never slept so much in my life 🙁

    My niece has been ill for 16 days now , she did some housework yesterday but ended up in bed again, think it's going to be a couple of weeks more before she starts getting better.

  • My friend arranged a lovely surprise for me yesterday which gave me a great lift. I still haven't done my finances yet but will do before bed. The day has been spent enjoying a walk, some cooking and a lot of ironing. My last full day of tomorrow so I am going to have a lazy day . 
    Enjoy a good evening.
