I've not updated for a while but it's been a very busy week or two. Firstly and probably most excitingly I have managed to get myself a new, better paid job which is far closer to home and a lot less monotonous than the one I already have - I start on Wednesday this week and I can't wait, I'm definitely ready for a new challenge. Plus, it's at our local hospital... what better place to work for someone with as many health problems as me haha!
ALS and I went to Leeds yesterday to watch Europe's Strongest Man for the second year running and had an amazing time, despite both getting incredibly sunburnt (the forecast said rain/cloud/storms all day) after being sat in direct sunlight for 8 hours plus. Definitely worth it though and we've learnt a valuable lesson about not paying attention to the weather forecast. I also got to sit next to a couple with the most adorable six month old baby who seemed to take quite a liking to me and his parents were very friendly too.
Feeling a bit slow today after driving four about 4 hours yesterday plus all the sitting in one spot and just a generally very long day but after a chilled out day today I'm sure I'll be right as rain tomorrow - think we're going to watch a movie and get a Chinese in!
I have my appointment on Tuesday to make the decision about my operation which I think I'm going to go for - it'll get in the way of my powerlifting training BUT it'll be worth it in the long run, rather than having to have it done later on when I'm wanting to compete (if I ever get there).
SO nice to have such a positive post for once - my health is still moderately failing me but I'm happy, ALS is happy and our lives are starting to come together nicely so that's what matters!
