Well, I'm back...  
kinda!

Still not feeling 100% but I can't believe how much better I feel! Won't bore you (or potentially disgust you) with the details but suffice to say the one good thing that's come out of this last week is that I've lost about half a stone in weight! Yay!

Trying to catch up with emails and things now, four or so fics have been posted to the BBBFic list and I'm nowhere near ready to archive them yet so - sorry guys! Might be a few days before they appear on the site.

Did absolutely no writing or anything much other than watching the first half hour of several films before falling asleep on the couch and I'm feeling really guilty about not getting any of WaDaDM done - I promised myself I'd not make Brooke wait so long for part three and it's already been like three weeks since I did anything on it.

Okay, so now I've let you all know I am still in the land of the almost living I have to go and restock my kitchen - I ran out of dogfood and Dram isn't happy with the dry food & gravy compromise...
 
 
Current Mood: hopeful

Not good Sho... except for the losing weight thing, which is always a good (on a new eating regime now... NO Chocolate allowed (except the drinky sort) which is just killing me!)

Will you be back to the grindstone tomorrow then, or will extra days off be the order of the day?

back to the treadmill tomorrow, much to my regret. Normally I get at least a day of feeling marginally better and being to goof about at home but not this time. I had no energy at all until today so I ended up spending most of the day either grocery shopping, or doing housework, or visiting my sister's kids who apparently have been missing all week (aw).

Plus, I still have to train the newbies at work and from the very brief time I was in last week I *really* don't want to leave them to the tender mercies of Patsy... *grin*

Glad to hear you're feeling better m'dear.

Will I be seeing you at work tomorrow? There's been a whole bunch of nothing happening there the last few days.

Should be, depends on how I feel about facing Patsy tomorrow...

Sorry, you're still fairly new to the department I shouldn't be dissing Patsy so much should I? *grin* Just wait till Gail gets back from her mat leave - you'll wonder how in the name of God Patsy got her job! (Ooo I sound bitter!)

Anyways - aren't you off to go see Shaun of the Dead? I'm so jealous! (still not really up to sitting in a cinema for that length of time so it'll be later this week before I get to see the god that is Simon Pegg! Enjoy! (and I will see you tomorrow!)

(plus, look at that icon and try telling me now that he's a "minger"...)

I'm glad you feel better! I'm getting over a nasty cold,myself,so I know how nice it is to NOT feel sick after feeling like crapola for a good while! Welcome back! You've been missed!

Thanks Gabrielle - good to hear you're feeling better as well! It's odd how we take being healthy forgranted isn't it?!

I'm feeling all "aw shucks" now, it's good to know I was missed!

Because I'm a slacker I forgot to welcome you back properly. So now I'm doing it,

Welcome Back. You were missed!

The bad thing about losing weight when your sick is that the next time you eat anything, even if it's like a french fry or something that shouldn't be able to put all the weight back on you with one bite, it does.

Thanks! Yeah, most of the weight loss is because I'm seriously dehydrated so every time I drink another litre of water I can feel the pounds going right back on... grrr
