    I've literally had enough, in a bit of a state. And this is just not like me! 
    I am strong and capable, but the last few weeks have bought me to my knees! 
    Onwards and upwards I have a mammogram this afternoon to look forward to 🙄
    Then I'm going to visit my mum and pick up the doggo, she has very kindly had him for a week while was recovering.

    Saturday ~ Bought Mum some flowers for looking after the doggo and Paid for coffee at the cafe. Not very MSE and most of my weeks budjet!! Came home and went to bed!
    Today I have doe a 60p study! and met up with the person taking over my clinic. He seems great, fingers crossed my lot like him and rebook! Ive done as much as I can for them, about half have been called, will do some more tomorrow. He is hopefully going to pay me for the 'goodwill' He is going to ring me tomorrow to tell me how it went.

    Am going to try and do my home visits this weeks plus 4 from previous missed weeks. And I have another 10 to fit in that had to be cancelled eek! The pennies will be very welcome, hopefully I have spread them out enough across the week.

    Doggo is home and hardly left my side, i think he missed me!
    Had a nice mini roast, chicken, tatties, carrots and beans and stuffing. I managed it very well wiht gravy to soften it but the stuffing was too crunchy for my mouth!! But it is improving and poorly tooth is bahaving, so I'm doing all i can, not to aggrevate it ~ so no crunchy stuffing!!

    Things are definelty improving!

    Morning, just had a text to say my gp app is Cancelled and it's now on weds, rather annoying as I worked my day out around the app. But at least it is still this week. 

    Gong to look over finances today and see whats what.

    Sounds like the new clinic chap is promising. I hope his first day goes well! 🤞

    Shame about the GP appointment. I hope it doesn’t get moved again …

    Glad you were able to eat ‘proper’ food and that the dog is loving you! 😊

  • ahh thanks KK
    Had a text chat with new clinic person and all went well and all rebooked so that was brilliant and its a huge wait off my mind. Big plus is hes also paid me the first bit of money. YEY!
     I still need to ring loads and move them across to his diary, will try and do a few today and each day to break it down. I did the majority of my dom round that had been cancelled and ony have 3 left to ring that were out yesterday.
    Had to go to bed at 8 was so knackered after only doing 3 patients yesterday, could never have done a clinic of 9!!!

    Anyway, will attemt the 4 I have today and crash again early tonight! Need to sort out a very easy tea, but of ocurse I havent been shopping so there's not much in. I will have a rumage around to see if I can find something, I managed to find a dinner from the freezer last night, fingers crossed and then, Ill shop tomorrow when Im not working for the rest of the week.

    ooh might have enough for egg fried rice, that would be good and quick and easy and havent had it in a while and i should be able to eat it

    What an absolutely brilliant day you had yesterday 😊👏
    How long does new clinic guy pay you for the good will? I am so glad the clients liked him - what a relief and you’ve given him a leg up on his career / earning potential as well 😊

    Hope today goes as well and you enjoy your eggy rice 😊
