Almost to the day I was having a lot of problems at work and ended up taking essentially a month off due to stress. I can't believe how quickly a year has gone. I also had a 48 hour ECG tape and will have to have another in the next few weeks. I went to the doctors last night as a result of the funny turn I had on Monday in the wee hours. They ( Read more... )

I have not heard (apart from the odd email) from my best friend in over 3 years, since he moved to Oxford and I moved down to Cornwall. I have known him and his family since I was about 5 years old - first year of Primary School, and R was a big influence in my formative years. I learned a lot from him - my likes, dislikes and attitudes ( Read more... )

Had a "funny turn" in the night last night - my heart was really racing and i felt all dizzy and sick when I woke up this morning. I went into work all the same as I have lots to do and I felt fit enough. The icky feeling wore off after a bit but it was unpleasant.

Couldn't sleeep early this morning, couple of things preying on my mind. One really stupid about one of the last things I did before I left work yesterday - I had addressed an envelope containing some certificate claims to the person who normally receives the certificates, not the awarding body.

I am thinking of getting one of the above. I am trying to justify the expense to myself - I still have quite a bit of the bonus I was paid in September though. But my mate at work has just got an iPod so I fancy one of those too. I don't know what the PSP is like but I used to love my Sega Game Gear and my Game Boy Colour. My sister has a Nintendo ( Read more... )

Been really busy the last few days, hence lack of updates ( Read more... )

We're not going to see Elizabeth: The Golden Age tonight. Timing a bit tight for me between leaving work and getting the bus into town for the 5:30 showing, given the level of traffic in Truro. We'll see it on Saturday afternoon instead. We have The Land Girls to watch instead in our "cinema" at home, complete with fizzy pop and chocolate ( Read more... )

I need a break from life. I would like to be our cat for a while.

What a busy weekend!

On Friday we watched the Maltese Falcon, one of our Amazon rental DVDs. Posted it back on Saturday. Land Girls is next on the list. The speakers we purchased certainly do the business - we watched Mission: Impossible the other week and still have no idea of "whodunnit" as we couldn't hear the dialogue properly ( Read more... )
