    I'm getting my cast removed from my leg tomorrow. It's been 5 months since I had my initial surgery (I've only had the cast for the last 3 weeks) and I'm hoping things are finally coming to an end and that I will be able to get my life back on track. Fingers crossed :)

    Best of luck Cork Lass. My husband had the same surgery (I think) not long after you and it really is life changing so I hope today will bring good news for you.

    Anxiety is the worst. Hope things pick up soon.

    Thanks for all the good wishes guys. Bit of a mixed bag today - definitely some improvement but not the result I was hoping for. Anyway, onwards and upwards and hopeful of more improvement over the next few weeks and at least the cast is gone for now :)

    Its a toasty humid 43 here in Dubai today, at least I'm in Dubai not KSA. Another reason to be cheerful. I'm so giddy looking forward to my flight Thursday.

    Booked my ride to the airport ridiculously early so I will most likely be posting on the forum from there.

    I like to arrive at an airport about 15 hours early, I'm so paranoid! :pac:

    I'd rather sit about for a couple of hours reading a book, than miss my flight.

    I fly so much now I have my usual seat in the airport that I like to get, think I will be mad and shake it up so its not like a work trip and sit somewhere else. I also 'borrow' a few months supply of toothbruhes and razors (which are free) from the toilets each time I go.

    It will be nice to get on a plane and have some booze,

    I live in a rented house and a lot of the stuff is old. My fridge has been playing up for months, so I bought a new one (bigger than the one I had). I was so excited to get it this week! I know that might sound a bit sad, but I love cooking and was just delighted filling it with lots of nutritious food.i also made lots of new recipes this week, so it was a great catalyst for that as sometimes I can be lazy with cooking too.
    Yum, yum, yum!

    Brookyln Nine Nine and How To Get Away With A Murder are both on Netflix and very watchable.

    Also Love The Coopers was added today!

    Get better soon Cork Lass! I'm still not right really - very fatigued. In work now, only 15 minutes left to home time. I need to shake this off this weekend -sick of not being in full health :(
