Have kept myself busy, done all the pressie buying and sorted Christmas lunch. We have been invited to my sister's, a load off my mind at least we not going to be sat all on our own, plus there will be 7 of us, so lots of laughs and noise!!Had a good day shopping with my friend Ruth today, love dragging her around the shops she's brill, and it's good to have a catch up.
Gave my two their Christmas cards... Matt had his Sunday afternoon, he asked if I had got Rach a son one too. I gave Rach hers later in the evening as she had been out with S. It was placed unopened on the coffee table at the side of her, I felt a little disappointed but understood that if it was a daughter one I had sent she would have been upset and a little embarrassed in front of her girlfriend. A bit later she went for a shower and took the card with her, this morning it was in the dining room next to her brothers on the unit. Nothing was said about it. I mentioned it to her and asked if it was ok, she was very happy but explained she didn't want to mention it in case it upset me, I was just pleased to have made her happy. We had a giggle because it's exactly the same as her brother's.
What a job that was to purchase, each one I picked up I thought they would compare verses and complain that I favoured one more than the other, I have never had that problem before, I suppose I will get used to it, or I'll just buy 2 of each every year.
Rach received a phone call at about 5pm, the counsellor had to cancel as his father had been taken into hospital, the London clinic appointment was now cancelled, it was no use going as we need the counsellor appointment so the prescription can be prescribed. Gutted! Rach was more concerned about me as I had once again psyched myself up to this, but I was gutted for her. I suggested giving the other counsellor a call to see if she would step in, she could always say no.
Rach called her... Result.
The counsellor agreed to meet even though she only counsels people on Friday's. Otherwise she is a nurse at a Euston hospital. Only issue is that we have to go to Euston after Dr Curtis's appointment for this appointment, thank goodness for the underground!
I spoke to my brother earlier and sent him the link to our blog. I felt like he was being left out, Saturday evening when we had our family get together my sisters were talking about it and I felt a bit awkward as I had not discussed it with him.
Have received a couple of comments on my blog. Very positive, I hope that my journey does help others even though I have a long way to go.
