Back to work after week off to concussion

Hello all! I hope you’re all doing well and are having a happy Anxiety free day!

Back to work this evening after a week off. Still feeling a little bit touch and go, got the unsteadiness on my feet but I’m hoping I’ll get through work no problems. Boiler broke....again! So have no hot water for a week until they can replace it so going to have to mooch a shower off family for now....things can only get better...right?

Good luck! Just take it slow and ease back into work. Glad to see you in good spirits despite the boiler breaking. 😀

Thank you SpeaktheTruth 🙂 it’s going to take more than a broken boiler to put a dampener on things 🙂

Right..Cs131193, things can only get better. Keeping a positive attitude about life is what it's all about in allowing us to go forward. Boiler being broke is not convenient for sure, positive thought, you have a family you can mooch a shower off of. Have been off a week from work, positive thought, you are getting better and going back to work tonight. Anxiety makes us all a little unsteady on our feet, positive thought, it still gets us there. Last but not least Cs, you have us behind you :) Good Luck in going back to work tonight. It WILL be okay. Make it a good day xx

Thank you Agora1, the way you turned all of those things into a positive have really helped today 🙂 now I think I will be putting this into practice with everything from now one, never knew something so simple could have such a big effect 🙂 and thank you for the good luck 🙂 work went really well, albeit a bit of a wobbly start but I did it 🙂 x

Feeling tears of joy for you Cs131193. Good job. It's in all of us to be positive and go forward. It's just that sometimes it gets so deeply buried that we forget we have that power within us. Sending you a hug and an "Atta Girl" :) xx

How did you get a concussion? Sorry to hear about the boiler :( Sounds pretty poopy.

Hello Dave06351, I passed out at the top of the stairs and hit my head on the post at the top of the stair rail 😞 thank you, it definitely is but we have a plumber coming tomorrow to replace it 🙂

in reply to Cs131193

Oh no. They have to replace the whole boiler?

Yes, but as long as we can get a warm house again by the end of the day then it’s not too bad 🙂
