~ So Anyway ~

I've made it through another busy week

For some reason this nose/throat business has become worse

Hence the few extremely bad days earlier this week

I seemed to have gone in the head first, the body followed or maybe it was both and I just didn't realise...

Anyway I have just had to cut back further on everything

Just an example Small Man and I went on a trip to town yesterday


We walked from the car park about 100 metres to get some lunch, chicken souvlaki in fact, at a proper greek shop that has had the same decor for at least the past 15 years, maybe longer, I reckon it wouldn't taste quite the same if it was all flashy......anyway.....

We then walked maybe another 500 metres down to Target - looked at some clothes for SM - actually he even tried something on.....in the change room....
We left there and walked back towards the car park....stopped in at Chemist Warehouse (my new best friends, I am saving about $50 per month by getting my scripts there....sorry Amcal....you are just too expensive)......

By the time we got back to the car we were both STUFFED.

If I compare this to the amount of walking we did in Canberra - my goodness one day we walked around a shopping centre at a cracking pace - as we only had an hour to spend there.....not to mention virtually running through the airport to catch adjoining flights......

A friend called to ask me to go to the craft fair this weekend, I have had to say 'No' after the way I felt Friday, I'm not taking any chances.  

How much fun would I be if we were there for an hour and I couldn't go any further? 

I'm pretty sure my friends will understand, it's not like I am doing it on purpose.  

I have become quite isolated, by choice.  

I'd rather not make plans than let someone down.

It's just the way it is.

I will ring the specialist and ask to be put on their cancellation list, but I get a feeling I will be waiting until the 22nd of November anyway......

In other news I did manage to help Possum write 5 PAGES about how wonderful he is for a job application.

It was so funny in the end, he ran out of concentration having started writing at 5.30pm - having around half an hour break - and the whole exercise finished (that included updating his resume/filling out the application form/double checking everything) at 11pm....

So now hopefully he will get an interview at least!

The job is a natural progression from the traineeship he is doing now...

So that's about it really,
