You're so right Rob, she's the one the rest of the family turn to when something needs to be done. Even extended family in Ireland come to her when one of her cousins needs help.

So, we've had the weekend to process everything and it's onwards and upwards from here.

I am down with the ´flu at the mo - hit me like a truck last Thursday, and hasn´t moved on yet.
So, last week I got written off sick for Thursday and Saturday with just a phonecall.
As I was still ill on the Monday, I called the surgery again, hoping for a couple more days of being written off. But they insisted that I should come in and actually be seen by my Doctor, and that I should wear an FFP2 mask. No problem, in I went.
I registered at the reception, and the nice lady there said that it would be best to wait on one of the seats outside of the surgery door, as I could then take off my mask and breathe more easily. Seemed like a good idea, so I did.
I waited and waited, saw people coming and going and waited a bit more.
It was over two hours of waiting, when a friend came out of the surgery, and wondered why I was still there? - she had come along with no appointment and was seen within five minutes!
So, luckily for me, she showed some initiative, and went in to ask why I had been waiting so long?
Apparently "nobody" even knew I was there, and my card was not on the desk.
Yes! I had been forgotten!!!

So, they processed me really quickly after that, but there was no apology or anything, and it´s left me feeling really unhappy, and fed-up!
Added to that, I still feel like shit!

I wish you a speedy recovery. I also was forgotten at the doctors office a while ago. I had talked to the doctor and was supposed to get blood works. Waited like 1 and a half hours patiently before one of the doctors assistants noticed me and asked why I was still there.

The reason for my unhappiness today is obvious to all who know me. But, I am attempting to keep calm and carry on. I work at the primary school this afternoon helping my immigrant kiddos with their homework, and they always bring me joy.

Yes, it's terrifying. We will get through it. We did before.

So sorry to hear you're unwell, although half the country seem to be the same.

I hope you have a speedy recovery, although my advice would be to take it easy, it can take a few weeks to get over this.

Thanks guys!
energy levels are certainly picking up again now, but the amount of "slime" still hanging around is pretty amazing!

Isn´t there a saying something along the lines of "what doesn´t kill you, makes you stronger"? Can´t say as I feel any stronger yet! :)
