I saw my GP yesterday and am back on the double dose of taking the Sertraline and the Amitriptyline together again. I'm glad though, cos for the little while I did that I slept much better and felt calmer and less anxious than I do now. So that's a good thing :)

Next week is my last week of my phased return at work, as it can run for up to 4 weeks before you have to be back full-time. So next week I'm doing all day Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and half days Tuesday and Thursday. I think that'sll be fine. Plus the week after I actually have 3 days A/L booked so I won't really be back full-time till the week after. Plenty of time :)

Today me and The Boy are going to the beach. Nuh. His choice, not mine. Hopefully once he's ogled all the women we can come back home. I'll just sit and ogle the surfers and the lifeguards. Have to amuse myself somehow cos I'm not a big fan of laying on the beach... probably my big fear of water doesn't help. *shrugs* I'll take a book in case there's no surfers to look at ;)

We went to the SeaLife Centre on Wednesday, which was OK considering he wants to go there every year. I always make a fool of myself there in some way. Tradition I think. Last year I hit a man. Accidentally of course, but still hella embarrasing. This year I fell over. Tripped over the kerb going in and fell sprawled on the pavement with the big picnic bag. People were all going 'Oooh, are you alright' whilst The Boy stood there and laughed his ass off, then took the piss for the rest of the day. Wonder what I'll do next year...

Hope you're all OK, have a great weekend :)

I can do the beach, it's the water part I'm not too keen on. If I can't see my toes, I don't belong there. Too many things that can bite, sting, or stub the toe.

And yes, it is a bitch to fall. It's hard on the body and the pride. I should know. :D I don't hurry for just that reason. After my spill whenever-it-was, I don't run/hurry anymore. I hope TB at least gave you a hand up.

*hugs*

He was too busy laughing to help :)

He enjoyed the beach yesterday, and wanted to stay longer than I thought he would. It was OK though cos I took a book and just relaxed :)

*hugs back*

Great you are feeling better! (late again, I know... it's becoming a bad habit)

Beaches are evil. For me it's not the water but the sand and the sun but the principle applies anyway :)

That place must be cursed!

For me it's the water and the sun. Don't like summer, love the autumn and winter :)

*hugs*

Same here, we had such an awesome July with all the rain, now it's been two days of sun and heat and I'm about ready to start learning how to rain dance :D

*hugs back*

Yay, someone else who doesn't like the summer :)

Where do you live?

[ansku]

Finland :) Our summer might be short but there's room for arguing that it's not short enough ^.^

Thank gods my darling insisted in buying an air conditioning machine to our bedroom, it's made the hot parts of this summer at least somewhat bearable...

[the-muppet.livejournal.com]

Wow, Finland! What's the winters like?

[ansku]

Here close the South-East coast - pretty easy :) I think first snow comes usually in October or late September. We might have some days or weeks under -35 Celsius in some years but the usual weather is around zero and rain/sleet until January or February (chances of getting a white Christmas seem to be about 50-50 lately) and then around -10 - -15 C for a few months (with occasional forays to around -25 C) with wind and snow (sometimes more, sometimes less but usually stays well below knee). This year spring came early, but it's not unheard of to get some spare snow in the second week of June :)

Deeper in the inland it's not unheard of to have over 80 degrees temperature differences between the hottest day of summer and the coldest day of winter :)

I get really confusing when I start explaining something. Did I make any sense at all? I tend to forget dots have been invented for a reason and there's a limit on how much info you should cram into one sentence...

[the-muppet.livejournal.com]

Okie you just moved damn colse to the top of my list for people on my flist I want to visit :)

And yeah, it all made sense, thank you :) x

*hugs*

Any chance you could get here soon? I could use some help in the garden *g*

It is very pleasant (in my scale) most of the year, although every season does have it's downsides. I guess it's so everywhere. If I could change anything I would remove heat from summer, slipperiness from winter, pollen from spring and... well, there's nothing wrong with autumn, actually ^.^ Well, the fallen leaves can be quite slippery and there's way too much apples to pick and throw away but those are just details :) Nights keep lengthening and there's lots of rain, it's hard to beat that combination :)
