Life and its twists!
Its been a while since I've updated. I am constantly amazed at how fast time goes by. And yet some days it seems every minute drags on and on. Today (10th April) has been a rush. But I guess I need to start with why it was that way. Which means I have to back track to thursday last week...
Terry was home from work with a badly sprained ankle. I had just put my lunch into the microwave to heat up, and that's all I remember. The next thing I know I am lying on the lounge floor with Terry telling me to lie still the ambulance is on its way. I remember thinking that he's having a joke with me. Then I realised where I was but couldn't remember why or how or anything else. Panic set in and Terry had to calm me down. He was so fantastic. My rock! He was so calm and comforting. He answered my questions over and over. The ambulance guys were so great too. I can't really remember much about it. Aimee took it all in her stride, bit worried about me. She wanted to go with me in the ambulance but Terry convinced her to stay with him. I think the ambulance officer convinced her too. I stayed in the A & E for about 4 hrs. And of course I'm not allowed to drive again. This is what gets me so frustrated!! I have been taking my medication, trying to avoid tiredness and stress are a bit harder, but definately haven't been drinking too much either. So we don't know why. Obviously it's something we'll never have the answers to.
I am still not quite with it. I'm finding it difficult to get some of my speech out. And my memory is very bad at the moment too. Yeah, I know its always bad but at the moment its extra bad. Only in the very short term. I'll find that I'm repeating myself etc. Multi tasking is a bit tough at the moment too. I'm positive that its all going to right itself in the next day or two.
Well back to today and why it was so rushed. Jo was a real blessing for me, she came and took me to drop Aimee at Rainbow Preschool and then up to Rangiora for my Why Weight course, looked after Sarah-Jane, then picked me up and back to Kaiapoi. I forgot to get lunch today as I had to go and look at a house for sale. Sorry can't give out any more info on that subject at this stage.
I have started a Book Editing, Proofreading & Publishing course, run through the NZIBS. Its fully correspondence and usually goes for a year (up to individuals and how much time they put into it). I get a diploma at the end of it (provided I pass) and its recognised in NZ & Aussie. The internet is making this industry very lucrative. And its what I love doing too. Part of my homework is to double my reading time. Hmmm, sounds like something I could manage! Poor Terry, I'm not sure he knows what he's in for!
I better sign off now. Emily has stayed at Nana's last night and is in desperate need of an early night. Aimee is on chocolate high (been that way since Friday), and Sarah-Jane is just being herself. Actually she's been quite well behaved today. Anyway gotta go get them sorted.
