More goodness to come though as I don't have to cook dinner tonight as it's just reheating last night's leftovers - whooop!
Leftovers rock ... My OH has been home sick all day so my planned leftovers meal has not eventuated.

I'm not denying her essential nutrition in her weaken state but it's dashed poor form

You are bearing this loss very nobly and manfully I must say.

I'd bear it more manfully if she didn't whine about "being sick" every 5 minutes AND eat all the ice cream 'for her sore throat'.

She seems to have enough energy to create the usual mini-rows with our daughter every 10 minutes or so.

I need that job ...

I had a pretty good nights sleep for me, expecting some news in this week which should stop keeping me awake at nights.

Just having a bowl of porridge, then I shall make a cuppa and see how the day pans out.

Had the third blood test to find out what is going on with all this borderline pregnancy malarkey. They are also testing me for cancer.

No worries then.

Consoling myself with chocolate.

Fingers crossed everything is OK, do you know when you will get the blood results in?

Good luck

It was school sports day for me so lots of watching juniors running around having fun ... such a joyous noise. Glad it's over though

Still half a bottle of decent Shiraz to the good, I think that won't last the night.

Oh my god, in the office there are chocolates that you can buy for $2 - I am so very tempted, really tempted to get some Freddo bars or whatever they are called, I love them.

Bloody hell this is serious willpower, I am hoping they will be old and stale and taste horrible.

Thanks everyone. I refuse to let myself worry about this, despite being a stress head. There is roughly a 1/10 chance I'm pregnant (though it would be a miracle- look out for strange stars in the sky and men on camels), a 1/5 chance it is cancer, a 1/5 chance it is the pituitary playing up, a 1/5 chance it is just my stupid body messing everyone about with menopause etc and a 1/5 chance it is an ovarian cyst. The other 1/10 chance is random and they won't know what is causing it, but it will all disappear.

Results should be in at the start of next week.

Wouldn't it be nice for once just to have a straightforward and curable health issue?

Stay strong- says she having just snarfed half bar of UK Cadbury's Dairy Milk, and not talking about a small bar either. No tea for me.
