Very tired today. Lots of aimless faffing, supplemented by little bits of activity as I finally mustered the occasional bit of motivation tongue

* worked on the dauntingly large paperwork pile
* did grocery shopping
* ordered & collected prescriptions

Am finishing off some tidying etc, and will probably head to bed after that.

Dear Choc, I just saw your post and am so, so, sorry to hear how ill you've been, and that you've been in hospital sad . How long were you there for? And how are you feeling now?

Ivy.

Heya ivy! How are YOU doing? i'm hoping your virus has departed by now, and your doing better. Sending cuddles for all animals and you of course! Trick is, i havent actually been THAT bad, if it wasnt for my crazy labs we wouldn't have admitted me! I was only going 3/5 times a day and my pain was really low. Like two paracetamol a day low. I was only for 6 days, which was roughly what i expected! Got my next infliximab on tuesday, which is abit scary!
I'm doing really good at the moment, but i'm on pred so i reckon at least 75% of my energy is from that! I've put weight on (not enough to actually fit into my clothes though!). I'm even eating lots of veggies!!! its lovely after 6 years of nothing.

I seem to have done a lot of aimless faffing today too!

Hound survived trip to vets and looks much better for manicure/pedicure :)

I was shocked though that it cost double what it was 20 months ago(£70 this time)

Keep trying to make phone calls but no one is answering anywhere! Need to see if pastor will do a letter of recommendation for dd. We no longer have a village one so have had to phone around to find out who ours is(oops)She has been invited to apply for a scholarship for her year abroad but needs this letter to do so. Have just seen though that Japan has had another earthquake today(doesn't help my fears!)

Ivy -- you summed up my day with "Very tired today. Lots of aimless faffing, supplemented by little bits of activity as I finally mustered the occasional bit of motivation" Totally my day, but stated better.

Mdf -- good luck at the dentist. Anything major? I'll be doing the same Sat.

Wow Vixen -- sorry about double the money. Exciting about the scholarship. Hope you get that letter.

Choc -- hooray for weight and energy even if it's from the pred.

My TLC:
Got my mom's appoitnment! Very excited since it was quite the wait list.
Groceries
Preschool
Diapers are running now

Everything else is going to wait for another day.
