Another week down.....

I've been on antibiotics now for nearly a week. Thankfully they will be gone
tomorrow. They're the serious kind that make me nauseous, irritable, ill and
lethargic. All of which added up to a week in which things didn't really happen.
 
 
Points I could improve on:
The kitchen stinks. I've been putting off getting a new kitchen bin, using all
sorts of excuses, but the fact is that my bin now needs to hold a full weeks
waste and the one I have is far too small. So it needs to be replaced. A stop by
argos on the way home I think.
 
 
The washing up hasn't been done since the beginning of the week. Despite my best
efforts at making the kitchen a hospitable place to eat, I'm not eating in
there. This could be linked to the point above, but I'm not sure. So this
evening, I'm doing the washing up, I'm drying everything up and I'm putting
everything away. I'm sorting out the counter space as well and getting rid of
the non-working microwave while I'm at it. If I get the correct bin, it will fit
in one of the tall cupboards so that will be one thing out of the way and with
the counter space clear I can put the fruit and veg on the counter as well.
 
 
My clothes this week have been hit and miss as well – mainly because I haven't
unpacked properly yet. I've been unpacking as I need to, so this weekend I will
sort this.
 
 
Points that have been good though.
 
 
I made it to my tutorial last night and really enjoyed it. I was wearing my
black gypsy skirt and new purple top and felt good. I also walked there any back
which helped I think. It made me feel good and Eminem and Stone Temple Pilots
helped keep the pace up.

 
 
I didn't take any time off work. This is important since these antibiotics are
horrible and I'm really struggling with them. So, not taking time off work is an
achievement.

 
 
I prepared for the tutorial as well and I'm now in a position to tackle Q1 of
the TMA this weekend. If I want – it's not due in for a month, so it will be
revisited, but that's good for me.
 
 
So all in all, not a desperate week, but definitely room for improvement. I'm
feeling better in myself right now, aside from the nausea, I just need to keep
the optimism going! Roll on lunchtime tomorrow – I may have a landline again
then as well :)
