"Chop chop busy busy work work bang bang" was the line from an old (1985 ish) BT advert (watch it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?gl=GB&hl=en-GB&v=FU4PwKrrHOE ) and that is how I felt on Tuesday!
A day of work, sitting at the computer, designing away and all of a sudden it was lunchtime and we needed to quickly get something to eat before our first meeting with our Ian Rennie nurse.
She was good. No pressure to offload at the first session just a "getting to know each other" chat. I told her my story but missing out the sucking jelly through a straw skills and then T did the same. Hope we don't need it but it's great that they are there 24/7 if you need to call them about anything including at 2.30 in the morning when things get too much.
And then it was back to work. Wow, my brain is almost back to normal. It was only a couple of weeks ago that my brain was so twisted that I couldn't even read a page from a book. I even started to sort out the massive pile of paperwork that had grown over the past couple of months. I might even get round to sorting out my expenses for work!
T had made a great tea which we had snuggled up on the sofa together.
A busy normal day. And not once did I think of the upcoming camera down the throat next week or the next scan. Well maybe I did think about them but at least not all the time!!
Hugs to you all
