Or should I say a frustrating week -
Today I got up to find that the food in the freezer was half de-frosted - probably because the plug was hanging half out of the socket because I must have caught it with the ironing board yesterday!
Then I turned on my mobile to receive a message from my mum that my 21yr old niece had been rushed into hospital last night with suspected appendicitis. My niece is graduating from York University next week & is supposed to be going on holiday to Turkey with her housemates next Friday. Being students they hadn't yet got their holiday insurance sorted. Yes - you're right - either she gets out of hospital, goes on holiday with no insurance & gets ill again in Turkey, or she doesn't go & loses the money she has paid!
The docs have been around this morning & the xrays were clear so she now has to have an ultrasound cos they don't think it's appendicitis anymore.
And it's not even 10am - the day has just started so what else can be in store!
Can't wait until this week is over! Have a good weekend everyone!
