I did manage to successfully wrangle Bob! the muse last night and wrote just over 1100 words on my stargate_summerfic. That takes me to 4000 words and I'm about half way through the story I want to tell. Of course, the deadline is in a few days and I have no idea how this thing ends so... ARGGGH

Peculiar dreams were had last night. They involved Team Leverage, an aeroplane, a boxing club and G Callen from NCIS: LA as a mechanic. I have no idea.

I'm not, as you can tell by the time of posting this, at work today. Yay day off. Yay four day week. No particular reason, just taking lots of long weekends because I still have like 25 hours (about 3.5 days) holiday to use by the end of the month, or I lose it. I haven't worked a full week all month!

Plans for today involve exciting adulting type things such as meal planning, grocery shopping, laundry, dishes and taking out the recycling. Wh00t wh00t. But first there is ( Collapse ) and Saving Hope!

*yawns and stretches* Morning internets. Now I'm gonna lie and say that was the best nights sleep ever because it wasn't, you know what it's like when things are new! The mattress topper though is amazing, it's definitely given my old mattress a new lease of life - so firm and comfy. The new pillows are going to take a little bit of getting used to though. And I switched to my summer duvet too soon so I'll pop the heavy one back on again before I go to bed tonight.

Today's plans involve going to the shop and topping up the electric because I'm low, purging the work clothes and sorting out the pile of stuff over there *hand wavey*
Mostly, though, the plan is to rest after a busy weekend of Doing Stuff because tomorrow there is work again.

Also during the course of this week I need to: find a charge my spare battery pack; find and charge my ipod, print out tickets, print out hotel confirmation, shave my legs, pluck my eyebrows, pack and clean out Lotte
Yes, there are shenanigans happening next weekend :D

For now though? ( Collapse )

I think my legs have now mostly recovered from C2C last weekend. My bad knee is now almost taking my weight and everything has stopped cracking and popping. I've not taken anything stronger than 15/500ml cocodamol for a couple of days so fingers crossed.

Plan for today is not to risk it - nothing more strenuous planned than going to Tesco and sorting out clothes for next week. Another day with legs up and fun movies. I've got the 90s Tommy Lee Jones Volcano planned for when I get back from Tesco. God that movie terrified me back when I first saw it and I've never re-watched it. I'm curious how I'm going to react this time round.

For now though, ( Collapse )

I've just had to call in sick. My pain levels have been up high for over a week, last night I did not sleep properly - every time I moved, I woke up in pain. This morning has my knees blown up, my hips cracking, my back is like concrete or something, one shoulder feeling like it's going to fall off and the knuckles of my right hand swollen (well that one's new). I also feel like I've twisted my right ankle.

Work called. Breakfast eaten and real painpills tooked. I've no idea if they're going to knock me out or just leave me feeling fuzzy. But since sitting and laying and standing and moving all hurt... yeaah

( Collapse )

So, depending on reaction to painpills, today there will be reading and watching tv and napping. Who knows what else!

I had a very lazy Saturday yesterday so today has to be the day of the leaving the house to buy groceries and then doing the housework. Hey ho.

I'm kind of dreading getting to work today and seeing what my inbox is going to be like after that re-direct from Kelly's went live. I'm hoping that my tenative plan for getting shit done is going to work. I'm also thinking I might need a new work bullet journal. I'll make plans for that and see if I can put it together over the weekend.

I just rang up to get a follow up appointment with my own GP, and get my sick-note extended for another week. I get told he's got no appointments for another two weeks. I explain the situation - which, really, I hate doing with the receptionists - and get an appointment for 2pm on Tuesday.
*sigh*

I am starting to feel better. I don't feel as wrecked as I did. I still have no attention span, no concentration. I stil get tired really easily but not as easily as I was. I'm still feel low and a bit hopeless but not suicidally so. I'm improving, I'm just not quite there. I'm hoping another week and if I continue like I have this week, I'll be almost there.

It has been a pretty good morning so far. I actually slept last night, took me a while to get there, but I did get a good 7 hours.
I've done an online grocery shop to be delivered tomorrow.
I have renewed my car insurance.

My plan for this afternoon is to sort out that huge pile of clean laundry that needs putting away. If I achieve that, I will be treating myself to some nommies. I also want to do some more poking about on my website.

For now though, I'm watching a little Rizzoli & Isles (I'm almost done on S2 already!) before making some lunch. I shall leave you with ( Collapse )

And then the long weekend was over and we're back to work. Boo. But it was a good, relaxing, weekend so that's not too bad

( Collapse )

My bed does not want me to leave it this morning. It is warm and comfy and snuggly. But leave it I must, for I have that work thing. I just hope that whole work thing goes a little bit smoother than the disastrous yesterday!
