A busy shift!

Sophie didn't go to the gym this morning as she had a headache. This was her first bad headache for a while and it's worrying that she had resumed her acupuncture sessions last Saturday. Is there a link?  We sat and watched Come Dine With Me with a coffee so at least we had a pleasant start to our Thursday.

My shift whizzed past today and Sara told me when she arrived that yesterday at work had been horrible, and very stressful. Sheila was off sick, and the phones were busy with Jo and Shirley working. Wednesdays in our office are commonly known as "W***er Wednesdays", so yesterday was no exception! Quite a few emails were waiting to be dealt with so I set to and tried to get as many done as I could in my shorter shift.

At 2pm Keith collected me and we sped home. I then went to see my Mum and Dad and sat with them for over an hour to chat. While I was there one of the carers came in and we chatted with her, which was great. There always seems to be someone about to chat with and the staff are lovely.

Back home, I did an hour of chores before Sophie arrived home. She still had a headache, poor thing, and has cancelled her next acupuncture appointment on Saturday. We were both worried that the therapist was going to suggest one a week again but at £50 a pop, that would prove to be expensive! Maybe she can leave it for a while and see what happens.

Dinner tonight was a very easy pizza, leftover crushed new potatoes from yesterday and salad. Not really a meal for the depths of winter, but it was delicious nonetheless!
