ME, Monday 26th - Friday 30th October

 Monday I woke and was looking forward to seeing Bobby and going for a meal in the evening.
First I had to go to work, after sleeping most of the weekend most people would be up and ready to go, but not me, It gets quite hard sometimes just to do normal things like having a wash, washing hair or getting dressed. The days are gone when I would be doing my hair and make up for an hour before going out..... I miss those days.
Bobby texted me whilst I was at work, he had taken Bob out for lunch in Aberystwyth and was looking to buy some jumpers to take back to Scotland ready for the cold weather.
Work was busy. so I didn't leave till after 3pm, I knew that Bobby and Bob would be a while, so I went back to the flat and waited for the whirlwind that Bobby is, to burst through the door. I didn't have to wait long, in he came, with a big hug for me and talking so fast I could hardly understand him!
Bobby stayed with me for the afternoon whilst Bob went back to Cemmaes to feed Storm and have a rest! Bobby wasn't happy with the shops in Aberystwyth at all, only brown and grey jumpers and he had wanted blue! He was soon on my computer talking to loads of women. Women seem to flock round Bobby like bees to a jam jar. I decided to have a rest, didn't really want to know what he was saying or to who!.

Just before we were due to go out Bob phoned and told us his car wouldn't start! So Jon and Sarah went to pick him up. I had recently brought a new camera, it had been set up and charged and was ready to use. I went to take a photo off Bobby, and a message came on the screen to turn camera off and on again, I did numerous times, still did not work. I was not a happy woman!
Disappointed, as we don't get many times when a few of us are together so I had wanted to take photo's and angry that the bloody thing hadn't even been used and was already broke!
We made the waiter laugh in the Indian restaurant, none of even looked at the menus, we all had the same starter, shish kebabs and Bob even had them for his main course!
We all enjoyed our meal and had a laugh, it was a bit weird when they all left my flat afterwards to go back to Cemmaes. Bobby came back the next day in the afternoon, I had slept till midday, rushed in started to prepare our meal, then he rushed off to get his hair cut. When he came back dinner was almost ready, we had about 10 minutes to eat it then he had to be at the railway station to start his journey back to Scotland.
Walking to the station and back, even the quicker way really hurt my legs, by the time I got back to the flat I was in agony, my calves were rock solid and my shin bones felt like they were going to burst through the skin.
I was in bed by 8.00pm, the next thing I knew Bobby texted me at 6,00am to say he had arrived back in Glasgow, from Glasgow he has to get a bus to Stirling then another to where the hotel is near Loch Lomond.
Wednesday I woke with my limbs feeling rigid. It seems to be taking longer and longer to be able to get out of bed just lately, I wouldn't mind but I'm 48 not bloody 88. I have started to record everything I want to watch on TV because I can't sit and watch for an hour, so at least when I do watch TV I can fast forward the adverts or just watch some of the programme and go back to it.
Work was quite hard too Wednesday, I had a first time debt client, so that was about 2 hours long, its very hard for me to keep concentrating for that length of time, thank god I can do the case work in my own time!
I got back to the flat had more tramadol and went to bed, woke at 10.30pm and just had some toast and marmite a drink and slept till 1.00pm Thursday.
I was really angry with myself for sleeping that long, I'm sleeping most of my life away and I don't have any choice! All I know is, its not bloody fair!!!!!
I did get pampered, Michelle came to do my feet and paint my toe nails, the feet part wasn't so good for me as the nerve endings in my feet have been really sensitive, so it was a gritting my teeth and trying my best not kick Michelle, but I ended up with beautiful bold purple toe nails!.
Jon came to visit while the feet were being done, he hates feet! and wasn't impressed. He took me for a drink in a local beer garden for an hour which was nice.
I was so shattered I went to bed at 7.30pm waking just gone midnight desperate for a drink and more pills.
Friday started off bad, because I had been in bed so long I was as stiff as a board, a dripping body and hair stinking of sweat! Not nice! Life would be so much easier if I had a shower instead of a bath.Well after nearly an hour in the bathroom, washing every bit that i could get too, I felt a bit better till I went back into the bedroom, bedding needed to be taken of, mattress aired and window wide open. Think you may of got the picture in your mind! Didn't have time to make my lunch so grabbed some fruit and went to work. I felt like I had already done a days work!
The day just seemed to drag, we weren't our usual happy selves at all, their was a couple of sad things, which made us feel worse and some other things that just pissed us off to be honest, so we were all glad to finish work. I can honestly say that Friday was one of the worst days at work for me in the last 10 years, nothing was happy I felt quite disillusioned with work, me and life in general.
Guess what I did when I got to the flat..............Slept ..............slept and slept
