Hey Queen Irene
Sorry to hear that you are feeling poorly with cold/flu symptoms. Make the most of being off and having people bring you food. Rest up well.
Take care and will hopefully catch up soon.
Love Lady Feb.xx
Thanks so much folks x
Day 213
Phew- feel so much better! Went back to work today (forgot I'd volunteered for a bit extra so lucky I pitched up!). Just home- prob not the best recuperation period!!!!
I'm still a wee bit worried- I seem to have some great days then feel like I've been hit with a sledgehammer. Does it ever end?
Again, this recent episode reinforces that I must always be vigilant.
I plan to spend tomorrow evening catching up on here and chatting.
Hey irene
Reading and wishing you well resting up and recouperating....so happy to hear your on chat with our chat queen charlotte who I know is a big contributor,,,,
Ive never used the service as I do enough blummin talking on my own diary..plus I always figured that it was a place for folks who wanted a break from thoughts of gambling and not a place for the likes of me who still border on bitter and twisted ...lol xx
Keep posting hun xxx

Hi Irene,
It's a shame we couldn't chat tonight, i don't know why i went there in a first place, feel very tired, maybe just wanted to chill out a bit.
I'm very pleased for you staying strong, you are my inspiration. Please take care and take it easy.

Irene,
thx for your post on my diary, as always it gives me added strength, which will be needed over time. People like yourself and LF serve as a inspiration for us relative new starters so keep up the fantastic work.
Hope you are feeling better to make the most of the weekend.

Good Morning,
Lovely to hear from you as ever! I hope that you are back to 100% health. Been a bit useless lately at getting around the diaries so I apologise for that.
Originally i was meant to be in your sunny part of the world this Sunday and Monday but as ever other things come up and they have put back the training until August Bank Holiday.
We all know that Bank Holidays are guaranteed downpours so I imagine it will be coffee rather than cocktails on offer 🙂
Check in this weekend so pleased you are still going strong.

Day 215
Physically feeling well, although strangely irritable......maybe I just need to accept that I can be a crabby git! Instead of becoming more sociable, finding myself becoming quite reclusive (which isn't my way at all).
Maybe hormonal?? or just a consequence of my past behaviour?? I don't expect to feel 100% all the time, yet I do expect a reprieve from the s**t feelings- does the rollercoaster ever stop?
Reminder to self: Irene you have a loving family, a good job which you enjoy, a comfy home, debts which are managed, great friends- you are such a lucky wee wumman....so stop moaning!!!!
Usually Friday eve is my wine, cigs and chocfest- tonight I can't be doing with that- coffee for me!
Hi Irene,
As i said to SA earlier in the week, we cant be happy clappy and floaty all the time how exhausting would that be lol..
Recovery and life is a rollercoster we love the up bits but the down fast bits are really scary.
For me i am trying to learn to accept that, if your felling crabby then so what, i try to accept it and not over analyse it as it to will pass.
I can also go into reclusive mode and sometimes i have to kick myself out of it as that can be dangerous for me, Your on day 215 so your doing something right. 🙂
Enjoy your weekend and be kind to yourself.
Take care
Blondie x
