Day 38: Wednesday 17th April

It's a new dawn, It's a new day, 
It's a new life for me, 
And I'm feeling good.........  la la la........

Drove to school again this morning - less sore than yesterday, but prepared for it with painkillers in advance! Clever me! 

I am wary of being seen by others as 'recovered' now, and able to pick up ALL the reins that I had in my sweaty grip a couple of months ago. I know this is frustrating - for me, and for everyone else, but I am still sore and achey, knackered all the time, emotional and a tad wobbly. 

I think I need a sticker!

Mr ASDA just brought my shopping into the house for me - 5kg of potatoes, eggs, soya milk and sundry 'birthday stuff' and 'bathroom stuff' along with all the super-cheap value stuff which is just as good as the posh versions! 

While waiting for Mr A to arrive, I have mucked out the kitchen larder cupboard, and relieved it of all foodstuffs with a best before date of pre-2010! Hah!

 


C1 went to school with a hair-flip and a smile this morning. The fringe issue is starting to resolve itself (it is growing!) and she has a little credit on her phone, so that she can try out our new arrangement of texting me when she is on her way home.

C2 grinned all the way to school - his carefully hand-written letter to 'Staff' asking to become a play leader, fact sheet and his model of the Hindu god Ganesh all clutched in a box. Apparently they are 'doing' India this term.

As he skipped (oh yes he did!) into school, my thoughts became more positive, and my resolve to 'go with the flow' regarding his school became stronger. 

Am ready to see Consultant Mr P tomorrow - am taking all the supplements I have been taking, and the sparse food diary. Hoping for some tips on how I can regain a little more energy, and find out whether I am really on track, or what the hell is going on. 

We'll see....................

Newsflash: Surely with this selection I might be able to sort out a way to get my Weetabix mushy?

Please.....
