    And to top it off. Yesterday I woke up with a huge swollen face. My tooth had been hurting all of the Previous day and night. Had to get an emergency appt and they’ve pulled the tooth out as too bad to
    save and have a huge infection, I had to do it in my lunch Break, but managed it
    and back to work despite looking horrendous. Been working a bit today but realised it’s just too much. I’m in a lot of pain so now on the sofa under a duvet and the cat. Cocodamol has stopped having any effect 😢 
  • Oh Missy. Thats sounds awful!

    Hope you are on the mend soon!

  • Thank you. Am struggling a bit with it, it’s so painful still and still swollen. Going to try and eat some breakfast and then maybe go for a walk. Have completely let money and meals slip, need to get a handle back on it.

    OK,

    I feel like I have taken hold a little yesterday. I think it really helps to have a planning day, or at least a couple of hours. I've not been able to concentrate on anything the last few days as I have been in so much pain. It is easing slightly and I only spent 3 hours on the sofa as opposed to longer. I have to go down when the pain gets too bad, take some more painkillers and just thrash about for a bit.

    I am trying to organise the week well month really, with regards to work and childcare. Need to look at budgets. Have had a pay rise which is nice but have also had to pay for swimming and dancing at nearly £200.

    I have just bought a 'new' coat off of eBay as I needed one. Have work most of the day, then an evening of homework and swimming. OH is working two jobs today. I really could do with going shopping. Right will write more later.

    Oh my goodness I’m just so tired! So have been at work most of the day doing different things, so it’s been productive. But so tired since being home. I think it’s because I did a workout and haven’t really been sleeping because of my tooth and the infection.

    nipped to Tesco earlier I spent £20 and I think I have enough for dinners for the week. I could do with bread cheese and yoghurts but I can manage for now until the weekend. Just cooking tuna pasta for the children for dinner and I’ll make a Maggi chicken thing for me and OH. Hate putting the oven on but just too tired to want to cook properly. 

    Have had a days work cancelled which is annoying as a lot of money as has OH. Have an interview for possible new career on Monday. So need to prepare for that.

    Dinners this week:

    tuna pasta
    maggis chicken
    chicken curry

    Woken up this morning so tired again. Im wondering if my iron is low or if it is just the antibiotics. I’m trying to get back into good ways by reading diaries, they’re helping!

    Ok the news is worrying me. Have just filled the car up which cost me £78. And had to pay £54 for cat food which will be delivered by Friday. 

    Going to do my budget tonight.
