Blogger has changed

It's only been two months and blogger has changed???

Well not only has things changed with the blog site but things have changed for me as well. I am now redundant, jobless except for a little bit of typing i do occasionally for someone. I had it all planned, all the things i was going to do and i have done none of it yet. The day after i finished work i had to go to the dentist, within a couple of hours of getting home i started to get a temperature, the shivers, achy all over. The snow came down so i was stuck in with this virus and still a toothache. The next week i went back to dentist and had a filling. Then the pain really started. The injections had irritated the nerve down the side of my jaw. Ouch!

The third Wednesday i went back to the dentist again and it was just beginning to subside, he said leave it for another two weeks to see if it settles. Thankfully it has but i still know it is there now and again.

So i have only just started to feel a little bit more normal in the last week and i have spent most of that over daughter's babysitting.

I got very down and despondent during that time. What had happened to all the things i had planned, i couldn't see how i was going to do them. That still is a problem, arranging my day, as hubby is around at all the wrong times and his sleeping pattern means i have to be quiet at times when i could be making a noise. I will also have to find places to go as well or i could find myself never going out. People keep saying it is early days, but we will see.

Daughter is ill again with a cold that seems like it might have gone to her chest. I have never in a long while known so many nasty viruses around and they seem to linger and keep coming back. It's the cough you cannot get rid of either.

I bought myself a Wii fit+ just before Christmas and i have yet to set it up and use it. That was one of the things i was going to do when i finished work, GET FIT. So far as i have not done anything or gone anywhere i am stiffer than i have ever been. My hip seems to have set. So feel free anyone to challenge me to see if i have got the contraption set up and am using it in the next 6 months lol!

My other leaving work treat, is this that i am typing on, my new toy, a netbook. I love it. I can look at what is happening while i am having breakfast. Stick it in my bag and take it over daughter's and play on facebook when I'm there. I have wanted one for awhile. That will be the last of the treats though now I'm not earning :( Never mind i have more than enough of everything i need.

  1. Long time no see! Sounds like you have had a tough time with illness but like you say this seems to have been the worst winter for viruses I have known. Fortunately only had a cold myself but that was the first for many years and just about everyone I know has had something.

    Hope you get your wii fit operating soon.

  2. Sorry to hear you have been having such a rough time of it but now hopefully you are on the mend and better days are coming. I'll be retiring from my job in a couple months and am looking forward to doing lots I never have time for.

  4. Sorry that you had so much dental problems. Yes there has been a lot of illness going around this winter. My daughter coughed for two months with doc's visits and a lot of medicines. Hope you can find a job soon. They are scarce these days. Helen

  7. I'm so sorry to read about your redundancy!
    I hope good fortune comes your way soon.

    There is nothing worse than being laid low for ages with a virus.
    I have ony had a cold this year but I have to admit because of my health I have to have all the swine flu and flu jabs going so don't expect to catch anything really bad.
    I wish you well. It's nice to see you blogging again. I must get my finger out too!
