saga’s end, and chreeeestmas pics

Well, things are better. I decided that my problems were probably due to a blockage somewhere, so before bed I took a couple of generic dulcolax left over from a procedure a few years ago. At 8am, I woke up to a strange feeling of released pressure in my abdomen. An hour later, I got up to pee. 5 minutes after that, I made a mad dash to the bathroom in record time.

Tonight was sales staff, but Kev got invited as he helps out a lot somehow. Whatever. I don’t ask. Because FREE GOBS OF ITALIAN FOOD AND WINE!

Errr…but not too full to have my share of a slice of white chocolate raspberry cheesecake. And another glass of wine. And coffee. Wheeeee!!!! More »
