Sorry to hear this Adam.

My part-read books pile is in the double digits, excluding work books. Oops!

The extra blood test has come back saying my levels are fine.
Part of me is relieved that there is nothing apparently wrong. But part of me is frustrated because I don’t feel right and apparently there’s no reason for it 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

That’s a big change with not much notice.

Sorry to hear this Adam.
It sounds like it’s been such a big change for you.

The blood service did an extra blood test & have sent that off for analysis. I’ll see what that says (it could be a dodgy sample/reading/machine) & book to see GP if needed.
I’ve been a blood donor for over 20 years though & this is the first time I’ve been turned away, so something ain’t right!

Yep, a finger-prick test. They usually put a drop of blood in a liquid & check it sinks within a certain amount of time, but this time they used a clever machine that gave a number.
I’ve been wondering if my iron is low for a while but had some blood tests at the GP recently that were normal 🤷‍♀️

I suspect the pupils there may be from middle/upper class families and so have privileges that may support their attendance.
It’s a Welsh language school, and the extra-curricular clubs they mention in the article are “chess, literacy, modern foreign languages, sporting clubs, dance clubs.”

Maybe option A then?
Can you go to the garden centre for tea another time?
November 23, 2025 at 11:34 AM
Tbh, both sound good.
What are your energy levels like?

Well done for stopping after an hour! Hope your weekend goes as well as it can.
I’d love to know what you think of Wicked as I’d like to go & see it soon.

Do you have safety pins? Could you use them?

Hope your recovery goes as well as possible.

Has anything changed that’s making him feel unsettled?
Hope he’s ok & just feeling a bit clingy today.

How is he old enough to leave home?! I feel like he was only born the other week…
