    He's spent most of the afternoon and evening sleeping. I'm hoping that continues tonight. I missed half an hour of choir because he was crying, but then he fell asleep and woke up ready for food.

    He's certainly feeling better this morning. He was a bit grizzly when he woke for a feed in the night, and wouldn't take much, but now he's had a bigger feed and a poo explosion, and he's been chatting to me and giving me big smiles.

    I actually don't mind the nappy changes, as long as I avoid getting it on me. I'm looking forward to him sleeping through the night and not feeding as often in the day. Being able to sit up on his own and hold his own bottle and being ready for weening are the other things I want to happen. I do love the times when he's in a good mood, even if it is 3:00 am.

    Morning all

    Well last night, I was curled up on the sofa in my pjs, watching the walk, only to have a phonecall asking me where I was. I'd written my off duty down wrong, thought tonight was my first night, but it was in fact last night, so went into work. At least now though I am one down,

They had attempted to deliver it to no.14 in the wrong street, they weren't in so they left it with their neighbour at no.15... eventually managed to get hold of it at around 7.30 last night. Will be writing a formal complaint to D P D today... absolutely shocking service!!!!

    Wow Flossie, that's so bad of them, don't blame you making a complaint, they need to know.

    I had to complain to our doctors yesterday as I went for an appointment and they massively messed up. Long story short, took my marriage cert a few weeks back. Booked an appt. in my new name yesterday, turned up and waited, clearly forgotten went back to reception and they had booked in my maiden name, ever though they accepted my new name when I made the booking so I was showing as a 'no show'. Asked them when my name would be updated and they couldn't find the copy of my marriage cert or form I completed. Fuming they lost my personal details so complained to the Manager of the practice, an hour later they happened to find my form filed in the wrong place. Ended up with the whole morning off work waiting for an appointment which I thankfully got in the end! Nightmare! x

    Afternoon,

    Flossie that's awful, happy complaining.

    Danielle, it was lucky I had not had any vino, if I had I'd not be able to go in. I went though as I know how short they are at the moment as they have three off on long term sick.does not sound much but in a small unit it is. Plus it gets them done and out the way. Now instead of finishing Friday morning it will be Thursday morning. Had an ok night really and due to who I was looking after it kept me going,

    Had a rubbish sleep, went off at 9am, woke with a start at 1030 thinking I'd overslept for picking my son up. Had a pee, went back to sleep until 1245 when the alarm went off, got up, threw some clothes on and picked my son up, went to dentist, back to school, home and bed, dozed for an hour and gave up as sleep was not happening. Had a headache as well and needed a drink. So had about 4 hours sleep since yesterday morning when I got up. This week of nights is going to kill me!

    Bad news today. Turns out my twin brother has epilepsy. He had a seizure about three months ago out of the blue, no warning, nothing had ever happened before. All the tests were clear, then he was told he was bring referred to the neurologist, which they said would happen if a test was abnormal, and would probably mean epilepsy. Then he had a dizzy spell, and saw the GP who had his latest EEG and confirmed it. He now won't be able to drive for at least a year, but at least can get medication and get it under control. Bit of a shock though.

    I used to have epilepsy when I was younger, controlled by medication but I did grow out of it. I've not had a seizure now since I was about 16.

    Fingers crossed they control it for him xx

    Feeling very sicky today, felt horrible last night too and went to bed at 8.30! Just can't seem to find the energy at the moment.

    Shattered this morning but my own fault for not eating dinner yesterday.

    Interview was odd. I was expecting them to have tasks laid out for me but I just sat in on phone calls. Not really sure what they could gage of me from that. We will see though.

    Hope today will fly by then can get home :) Toad in the hole for dinner. Can't wait!!

    I'm not having mine done again lol. Can't cope without caffeine!!

    Took my car down to the garage last night so my step dad is picking me up this morning and my old boss (works in same place) is bringing me home.

    Hopefully it'll be fixed to collect tomorrow night.

    Emma when I had my teeth whitened I had the worst migraine ever the next day. I wasn't sure if it were to do with the lights they use or caffeine withdrawal lol. I didn't go back for my top up it were that bad. I'll not forget it as I had my final dress fitting and I didn't enjoy it one bit due to the migraine

    Morning all (just)

    Hope you are all good.

    Finished my nights this morning thankfully. I got in yesterday morning and was so tired I did not even know my own name or where I lived. Threw some fajita stuff into the slow cooker and went to bed, was in bed before 0830, woke at some point a couple of hours later for a wee, went back, woke about 330 for another wee, nearly got up but changed my mind, went back off, hubby came in at 430, asked if I wanted a cuppa, I said please but then decided to stay in bed and he said he would wake me in an hour, but after a ten minutes I got up as aunts Flo pains were awful. Been to body pump this morning, now off to meet hubby for some lunch in a bit.

    First meeting was shocking. We were going through my handover things and seriously the level of detail they want is ridiculous. to give a file location isn't enough I have to screenshot how to open the file explorer to get to the first location!!! I am concerned who they are employing if that is an acceptable level of computer skills!

    Evening all. Had a nice day at work. Tired now though. Off tomorrow then back Saturday, took annual leave on Sunday so will do something with the family. Hubby suggested asking someone to mind LO for an hour while we go to the continental markets that are here to sample some foods. Sounds nice.

    Got home from work and hubby had finished painting the bedroom furniture. I love it. Will take some pics tomorrow to show you's the difference a bit of print can make!!
