The last 2 days....

8 Replies

The last two days have been truly awful. It has been the doctors strike and as a nurse prescriber I was asked to come in and help out. Busy in waves I found periods of time I was sat around doing nothing but waiting. I was out of my comfort zone and the cravings hit. Anyhow I didn't cave but it was difficult. Came home and went straight to bed. The cats have been a huge comfort. Just shows that you have to be on your guard at all times. I have also found green tea very soothing. Apparently it is supposed to be good for healing the respiratory system. 

Take care all of you lovely people!

Hey Cats 👋

Well done for getting through the awful days. Chips and green tea sounds good to me 👍👍 although a Bloody Mary sounds better 🍹😂
