Most regular

Monday 17th Mar 2008 @ 12:45 pm

Ok so most people won’t be interested in this but it is very exciting to me.

I got my period today! That in it’s self isn’t amazing. What is, is that it was due. Exactly 28 days since my last one. Which means the metformin is actually working. I’m only taking 1000mg a day so thank god it is cos I don’t think I could manage three a day. Prolly a long way off from normality but makes me feel a lot more positive about taking the metformin. I’m thinking I will stick to two tabs a day since it seems to be working any who. If I try and take three I feel nauseous all day long.

I haven’t been crafting lately cos I’ve had awful back ache (Now I know why) and also I’ve been roped in to help with my friends wedding. It’s actually quite fun. I’m doing the favours and the invitations. Dunno if what I put together will be liked but that’s the bride prerogative I guess. So I’ve been busy researching prices to see if I can save her money by making them for her. Also had school work and other stuff to catch up on so all in all it’s been a bit hectic.

Oh and I’m currently really mad with my post office as they appear to have lost several parcels I posted on the same day. Nobody has received them and one person received the letter that was INSIDE the parcel but no parcel. I’m really sad as I didn’t have a camera then so I’ve no record of making those things :(. I’ve had problems with that post office before but it’s closing now and moving to W.H.Smiths (What’s with that??). So may as well go to the main one from now on. My mom thinks it’s cos I make the parcels look so pretty people know it’s a gift. I bet they were disappointed when they found some crafted stuff in there lol! So if you were expecting but did not receive a parcel from me please mail me as I can’t remember exactly all that were posted that day. I’m hoping it’s like my other package and they will turn up a few months later when they decide they have no use for them. Hopefully not ripped up though :((. That would be sad.

Got doc’s this afternoon (hence messing about online lol) so best go get ready. They’re gonna take my bloods :-s.

Knitters do it better

Wednesday 20th Feb 2008 @ 9:13 pm

It’s true, if you can knit you have better eye hand co-ordination, dexterity and just all round rock! Ok, the last statement may be a little biased but learning to do something with both hands actually makes you smarter. Cool or what?

Enough about that update on what’s been good lately. New meds are going ok. Still make me feel sick but I eat a lot less now, not that I ate a lot before mind, but people with PCOS don’t need as many calories in one sitting. So I eat 2 meals and 2 snacks. I’ve lost 3 pounds yay! To get down to my target BMI of 23 I need to lose 20 more pounds. I think the new eating habits will help. I no longer clear my plate to be polite and take my time over my food even if everyone else has wolfed theirs down! Wish me luck!

Also I have a camera but now a crappy internet connection that goes kaput if I even look at uploading a picture so still I am photoless :(. However as soon as I can wangle my way out of this contract and sign up with a better provider I’ll be good to go again. Stay away from Bulldog I tell ya! Good news though they are laying cable in my area finally so I can go digital yay!

What else have I been doing lately… Well not cleaning my filthy house lol. It’s seriously bad :(. I can’t seem to motivate myself in this weather. I have signed up for the Fly Lady newsletters though and it helps a little. 15 minutes here and there. I did treat myself to a few new things for the house as well to motivate me. It always makes you tidy up a bit when you have something new to put out. I got a lovely pine bathroom cabinet just needs to go on the wall once I get the drill from my sister. I got new cutlery which I love, baking stuff (spatula, pans, jug etc) as I need to practice baking for my friends wedding and some scatter cushions for the new look in my bedroom. I need to get the house straight for friday though as I’m cooking for my mom. I got a good deal on a whole duck so that’s what we’re having. Mmmm yummy! So looking forward to that.

Read on if you’re nosey and not squeamish lol.

Not so bad

Sunday 3rd Feb 2008 @ 12:30 am

Well today has been not too bad at all. At my aunt suggestion I took my tablet in the middle of a meal and it seems to be working so far. Nowhere near as queasy as I was yesterday. I do feel a bit drowsy though. Probably a bit dehydrated. So I’m glad today.

The weather here is freezing. I sit huddled in front of the heat all day lately lol. I hate the cold! Can’t wait for summer. Actually can’t wait for holidays, though I’m unsure where I’m going yet. Anywhere warm will do though.

Oh and I have been craving fishy biscuits, dunno what they’re really called, ever since I saw the fishes in Linaloo’s soup but I can’t seem to find any :(. I got some cheese savoury biscuits. You know the kind shaped like ? ? ? and ? but they’re not really the same. I guess they’re ok for snacking though. I found some muffin cases too woot! So will make some muffins at some point.

I forgot I was writing this and wandered off lol. I had some deep cleaning to do :-s. My spring clean is a bit late, for me any way. I feel better having made a start on it.

I better try and get some sleep I’m so tired!
