I've been so busy today! Blitzing, cleaning, treadmilling, dealing with mess ups for A Level mocks *sigh* and am absolutely knackered... So I'm signing off early tonight. If anyone needs me, text, or smoke signals or something.....

Go and rest up babe xxx
Night, hunni
Can you take it easy tomorrow? Or am i just being silly? ;)
Oh! Ristorante have started doing pizzas with quorn. Veggie though, not vegan. They're on offer in asda at the moment, £1.50
Go replenish those spoons. (panda)
Morning, lovely, what’s the plan for today?
Thanks Jaq, H might like those, we're having pizza tonight anyway so I can see whether they've got them in Sainsbury's!
Rest? Well Marc started Methotrexate yesterday for alopecia and the vitiligo and the fact that he's really concerned that his immune system has attacked his hair, his skin and nails and he's concerned as to what's going to be next. He started with anxiety last night as soon as he went to take it so today he's pretty much out of action.
So far I've got the kids to school. This is Mock week for B, today is Tudors this morning and cold war this afternoon... He was in a state yesterday and isn't feeling the love today.
H finishes as 3, F at 4, B at somewhere between 438 and 520ish, then H has to be in town at costa for 5 to meet her mentor, so I have to hang around in town for an hour - hence shopping..
I need to get on a treadmill and do some washing and speak to my mum. Hoovering can wait till tomorrow...
Do you actually need to get on the treadmill?
What is it you tell us about pacing and spoons and not pushing too hard? I can't remember...
Don't know about a treadmill putting your feet up after all that dashing about is more on the cards, just saying ;)
ROFL, yes I need to treadmill. It sounds stupid but it's 30 mins where it's just "me" itms? I also made a decision that I either shift this weight by diet and exercise or I'm going for surgery, and I don't fancy the surgery tbh...
So my day has consisted of getting the kids to school,
Getting Marc up,
Making breakfast and doing the dishwasher
Get Marc up,
Sort Birthday presents for B (18 on Thursday, I can't believe it!)
Sort presents for my Mum (also birthday on Thursday, but she won't be 18)
Talk to Marc about stuff in his head
Deal with texts from B who hadn't eaten breakfast as he is so stressed out about his mocks. So he finished 1 3 hour exam (History: Tudors - his most hated) to have the beginnings of a migraine, but wouldn't eat his mars bar or take the meds so I had to...
Go and get Ben,
Get something for lunch from Tesco for all of us
Eat lunch (hooray! Nice salad!)
Take B back to school after he'd eaten and medicated for his next 3 hr paper (History: The Cold War)
Treadmill
In all of this I'm still trying to get hold of my mother who I haven't spoken to since last week!
I've still got to:
Get H at 3 and bring her home to change
Get F at 4 and bring her home to change
Get H to costa for 5 (she's meeting her mentor)
Go shopping for dinner
Maybe pick up F's new specs
Pick H up from Costa
Cook
Eat
sort school stuff - they will do it,
I think I'm going to sign out just before Silent Witness starts tonight!
Oh and we need to fit in Law: Criminal Law revision ready for the morning!
Can you and the kids not sit down and look at these lists to see what they can do without you?
They've been brilliant actually and they are cooking dinner! Win!!!
So we're nearly at the home street, but will still be logging out at about 9 ;)
How is today looking for resting?
Much better! Have been busy, but sat down busy itms?
Sat down busy is better than rushing around like a blue-arsed fly busy (panda)
It is!
Is it strange that I'm rather enjoying my treadmill? It's a challenge and yet it's also really god to take some time out for me....
A little bit strange lol ;)
I know, I've even bought some proper air cushioned trainers as instructed by my little bro who used to be a personal trainer and his wife who's a physio!
Sooooooo.... we have a new (foster) puppy. She's meant to be 2 but we're very sure she isn't... She's had a really hard time having been shot 11 times and rescued. Her name is currently Alice which doesn't suit her at all and she has no recognition of it at all! So we're giving her a couple of days and giving her a new name because I'm quite sure that she won't be leaving us! :)

She is gorgeous and yup can definitely see she wont be leaving, she does look wary but calm there itms ?
She's been pretty much on that bed and snuggled since she arrived. We had to make her go out for a wee and a poop, but she came straight in and went straight to the bed again. She's had something to eat and something to drink. She's moving further out of the corner and towards us more. She seems to love music and is looking around more... Early signs are good!
Sounds really positive with her
She is beautiful. I’m so glad she’s found safety in you x
Thank you...
You're an amazing person
How is she today?
She's beautiful any thoughts of a name for her yet? How's she getting on with your other dogs?
She looks like a coco to me ;)
She's literally just beginning to look around more, she's eating which is brilliant.
Crash went over to her last night and she barked at him! He jumped and ran to me and hid lol He's desperate to go and play with her but isn't sure lol
Oh poor lad - Luna was so good natured but every now and then she put Polo in his place. That’s not always a bad thing (for canines or humans ;))
(rofl) It's definitely not a bad thing....
How are you doing, lovely? And how’s ‘Coco’ (how many times do I have to say it before it sticks? ;))
Sorry, "Coco" was vetoed.... Her name is........ Willow. (I wanted Frieda, but got outvoted). I'm exhausted tbh. Pretty much running on empty. Willow is getting braver... little by little.
(panda) sending hugs.
Can you rest? Do something nice?
How do you intend of saving spoons?
Pah! Did I not get a vote??? ;)
I hope, sweetie, you’re resting today ......?
We've done a little shopping for something for tea tonight (soup and bread and ham and cheese and salad). I'm taking things as easy as I can....
OK time to update..
~ Things have been a mess since last Wednesday when B had some news about his A Level media coursework. He (and the other students) now have 2 weeks to redo their coursework as they have been taught completely wrong and none of them met the brief.......
~ Found out today that one of my oldest friends who is awesome has just been given a really horrible diagnosis by letter following her most recent MRI
~ I went for my blood test today and it hurt! She never hurts, but she had to "dig down really deeply to find a vein" and then Marc had to take the tape off! Ouch!
~ I was meant to have an ECG, but I was lying there half naked and the machine didn't work. So I have to go back at some point for that.
~ However my blood pressure was lower with the new meds.
~ It's F's birthday on Friday and I'd forgotten that she was having a sleepover on Saturday night lol
By letter??? That’s awful! :(
How’s B doing?
Yay for lower BP, I know how relieved I felt when that happened :)
Any chance of resting anytime this century?
By letter is awful!!!!
Paula, more like next century (giggle)
