Hello Again!
Its been an interesting week so far! I returned to work on Monday, just doing half days for a couple of weeks to ease me back gently. Its really strange turning up late and going home early, doesn't feel right, I actually feel a bit guilty if I'm honest. At the risk of everyone thinking I'm nuts, I have to say its nice to be back. Had hugs all round (well almost all, theres some you just wouldn't go there with!), and the boss told me about 20 times how good it was to have me back. Mind you I think he's just glad to have someone with a bigger naughty streak than him to take some of the heat. I behaved as it was my first day back, and didn't cause any mischief really. That situation won't last, I can't behave for too long.
We have so many new faces in the building too, its really strange. A whole new department have moved in, so it will be interesting to see what they are all like. Apparently one person has been moaning about the toilet door by their office, and demanding it be kept closed at all times. So I couldn't resist, went to that one on purpose, and made sure the door was wide open (after I'd finished of course)! OK, so maybe that classes as a little bit of mischief, but I think I may have some fun with that one.......
Driving to work was the furthest I've driven for weeks, since before my relapse actually. While I was driving home I was thinking about me driving, and realised I still can't quite believe I'm actually doing it, that they really gave me a license. I still feel like I'm doing something naughty and that I'll get caught up with eventually and found out. Just to reassure everyone, I did pass my test and do have a legitimate license, and even insurance and everything, but I sometimes catch myself and still think I'll wake up. It took me so many years to do it, I'm still adjusting to the idea! Told you all I'm bonkers.
Had my Tysabri treatment today, so a little trip to the hospital. I got there nice and early in the vain hope I'd be done and dusted nice and early, a girl can live in hope! The other woman that I'm on with now is a real strange one, so I have to make sure I have reading material. I really miss being part of the Witches of East Warwick, which was what one of the doctors nicknamed the 3 of us that used to be on together, we always had a giggle! Luckily there was another guy in who was vaguely human, and really quite sane, so I had someone to talk to. The cannula went in on the 4th go, which wasn't bad and the treatment was done and dusted, and waiting time before 12, so I should have had an early finish. But I opened my mouth and asked about some test results from last time, that was the mistake. Ended up waiting around for doctors for almost 2 hours. Apparently I'm growing some fairly unpleasant bugs and need antibiotics. If they'd realised before and had checked I wouldn't even have been treated.......Oops! It would seem that nasty bugs and immune suppressent treatment don't go well together, it would have to be me! Gave up waiting for the doc in the end, and asked the GP's surgery for the drugs, who obliged. Never a dull moment, but still smiling!
Believe it or not, more baking was done at the weekend. My Nan would be proud. We did a chocolate victoria sponge type cake this time. Hubbs said it was really nice, moist and light, praise indeed from chef! Is there no end to our talents. CC has ideas for more baking this weekend too, it could get to be a bit of a habit if I'm not careful, and I'm in real danger of turning into a proper girl, shudder at the thought!
Well its getting late and the cat is quite insistent that its bedtime, so I'd better do as I'm told. Still struggling with this British Summertime business, my body clock is screwed up enough thank you, without someone adding to its troubles. We'd better get some nice weather now to be able to take advantage of it, or there will be much stamping of feet! So whichever government department orders the weather, can you please put one of for some sun, and be quick about it please!
