Happy Friday!! Good/Bad

SillyWrong, 13 February, 2015 at 11:07 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 19

I'm not the best to start this thread this week as there isn't a whole lot going on for me!

Bad: My dog will not stop weeing everywhere. Everywhere. We think it's anxiety being left as she does it even if we nip out to the shop. She's lucky she's cute.

Good: We have a relatively nice weekend of not very much planned this weekend, friends over this evening, couple of errands tomorrow, nice meal at home tomorrow night.

Good: **BT** We've been waiting a year or so to get started with our IVF, finally, we're now down to a matter of weeks until our first appointment. It's all of a sudden becoming very real.

Bad: Work is making me feel undervalued and bored and unmotivated and a bit grumpy lately.

Good: The above just makes home time all the more sweet and I love my evenings and weekends with my wee family Smiley smile

    That's a pretty nice update SW ? For me;

    Good - We don't have MF's child this weekend. Phew.

    Bad - Got dropped from the Netball team last night! Confidence that was already low as learning a new position, massively knocked.

    Good - 6 of the 7 players texted me to say that they missed me and that I am so much better than the other GA. HA! Cheers lasses.

    Good - 5 mile cycle 'home' from work last night. Quick and easy way of exercising

    Not much really. Hugs and vibes and love to all who need it.

    Great news about the IVF SW!

    Bit of a grumpy one for me this week!

    Bad, got broken into (thankfully not the house)

    Bad, I've got an upper respiratory tract infection and still feel cackling after 8 days

    Bad, work is still super stressful

    Good/bad, got a weekend at home, but that means time for a mega clean and tidy

    Good/bad, He finally has a date for his work trip to India, but it's on his birthday, and he'll be away a week and I'll miss him

    Bleurgh, no good things this week other than I can't wait for a lie in tomorrow and a cuddle!

    Bad: bathroom extractor fan blew up so electrician has removed it, leaving a big hole in the roof right above the toilet (he's fixing it next week) meaning condensation drips down your back and bum when having a wee. Lovely.

    Good: started my new placement on Monday (here for five months) and have survived my first week. Hurrah.

    Bad: DS woke me up at 5am for a wee and never went back to sleep

    Good: Meeting our potential videographer for lunch tomorrow at the restaurant we're having our reception in! VERY excited about this!

    @SillyWrong... very exciting on the babymaking front. Good luck! Meeting your videographer tomorrow ?

    Good: My son swam a little bit without any floats for the first time last week, so we're very excited for tomorrow's lesson.

    Good: Got my car back from the garage this week, after it conked out on the motorway a fortnight ago.

    Good: Got a tax rebate!

    Bad: I'm sure there must be some, but it's not jumping out at me so can't be THAT bad...

    Yay for the IVF sillywrong! I wish you all the luck in the world with that :-)

    Good: Paid celebrant and reception venue deposits.

    good: got a new phone!

    Good: our son got into our first choice school

    Good: managed to kick my staff out of work early Wednesday night, usually they are stuck in there until the small hours, so that shift was a massive win for all!

    Bad: I am working on Valentine's day BOO!

    Good: Still loving my new job, the work is great and my new colleagues are gorgeous. They seem a great organisation to work for so I'm a happy girly.

    Bad: H's mental health taking a back-slide. I'm finding it hard to be calm and suportive about it.

    Good: Bathroom re-tiled and carpets cleaned this week, the house is looking lovely.

    Good: We are stil having the most amazing weather.

    Bad: Between a chest infection, stress about H and starting a new job my will power has been at an all time low and I have ballooned, lots of junk food and no exercise.

    Yayyyyyy for the immenent IVF SW!

    And booo for the UTI Holey. I had 9 of them the year before last so you have my most massive sympathies. I saw a urologist and took an antibiotic a day for 6 months and that seems to have worked. *touches every bit of wood in sight *

    Haven't joined in one of these for ages, working full time leaves me no time for internetting!

    Good - love my job. I'm a TA at a SEN school for boys with behavioural and emotional difficulties. It is so tough at times but I absolutely love it. Got plenty of bruises from it too!

    Good - husband and children are amazing.

    Bad - mum in law getting worse and worse. Brain cancer is a fvcking twunt.

    Thanks for the sympathy Lister (although I still want to call you K!), I was hospitalised at the end of last year with a kidney infection so am now massively nervous of the same thing happening.

    As for the MiL, massive hugs, can't even imagine how hard this is ?

    Oh bless you that sounds rotten! Far TMI but every time I wee I have the fear that I have another infection. It's turned into a bit of a phobia. Urologist top tips - wash with plain water before and after sexy fun times, not too much tea or coffee and try not to hold on to your wee for too long.

    Thank you for the hugs, very needed at the moment. X

    Never joined in before but thought I would this week.

    Good: I have a week off work next week

    Good: Son has gone up a swimming level

    Good: Actually both H and I bothered to get each other cards and little valentine gifts although we never usually do

    Good: We are going to get son ready for bed and once a sleep are having a romantic meal in at home we are normally not very romantic

    Good: We managed to get home earlier than normal from the Saturday School of Rock we run

    Bad: Son missed swimming this week as he had to go to the orthodentist as his retaining brace was cutting into his gum ☹️

    Bad: Heart failure nurse saw H in the week blood pressure has increased a bit so prob have to have meds altered also prob means it is getting worse

    BT ref below:

    GOOD

    My best friend is pregnant! I am so pleased for her. Just before l got married she lost a baby at 22 weeks and has struggled to conceive since. This pregnancy is going well so far, roll on the end of August!

    I have survived this weeks night shifts

    The house is coming on. Our bedroom is nearly done, we just need a new carpet. This weekend has involved putting together bedroom furniture. We now need to finalise a quote for our bathroom to be done and some work to the other 2 bedrooms.

    BAD

    Mr Erin had bad news about his heart. It appears open heart surgery is around 5 years away which is closer than we had thought. He is being started on beta blockers soon.

    The honeymoon period at the new job is wearing off! My manager is rather unreasonable e.g. wants me to do hours of online learning ASAP but won't give me anytime at all to do it. Plus they don't seem to want to sort my annual leave out and l have found out some of my colleagues don't do night shifts despite doing the same role and grade as me.

    I have a massive bruise on my left knee which is bothering me at work and at the gym

    I have eaten too much bad food lately. I go to the gym a lot so it is my diet that lets me down.

    Hugs and vibes to those who need them.
