Oh no I'm sorry to hear you're admitted ☹️

Yeah it's a lot of festive shifts and instead of 5 receptionists over the period (we do out of hours for 15 practices plus our own 4) there's just me.

Hugs are very welcome. I very much do not like hospital but my breathing is bad enough it's where I need to be.

That beige dinner sounds delish Lio I am jealous!

*Shakes fist at Amazon* sorry your order got screwed up Dawn

That sounds frantic Beth! Do you at least get extra pay for Christmas day?

Nope nothing extra. I'll get a lunchbreak if it's not too busy and there's someone free to cover reception for me

Annoyingly it's my third Christmas Eve in a row, while most of my colleagues haven't worked any, grrr

Elmer aside from the mushrooms, that sounds lush

I'm waiting tor meds. Fun times. But I've got my music on :)

What type of music Tamo?

A bunch of random stuff eg last one was Justin Bieber Love Yourself but I've also got Black Betty in there.

Morning Everyone!

I got moved up to the respiratory ward last night.

Morning!

Hopefully they'll be able to sort something out asap jen!

*fingers crossed*

Will see what happens at ward rounds

They are good sorts up here already met some staff I recognise from previous admissions. And they get my fnd

Morning all,

That's something positive LR

Sounds positive jen!

Morning beth
How are you?

And happy Christmas eve eve everyone :tongue2:

Yeah the respiratory ward is a vast improvement on AMU. I hope I can escape before Christmas though

Morning everyone.
Crossing my fingers for a swift escape, Jen.
I feel terrible today. Felt terrible too yesterday. Feel like i could implode at any given second. What a rubbish feeling :-(
I hope you're all in a better mood than i am <3

Hopefully!

Morning zurg
Sorry you feel so rubbish
Anything we can do?

I've just had my hair cut, now gonna clean out the piggos and sort out some cheese and pineapple sticks. Classic nostalgia party food!

Sorry to hear you are feeling like **** Zurg. Can you capture Findus for bunny cuddles?

Cheese and pineapple sticks are god tier food Beckie! I am super jealous!

Morning everyone.

Hope you can escape back home soon, Jen.

Hi, Beth. Hope you're ok.

Yum, Beckie. Although we used to have cheese and pickled onion not pineapple.

Sorry you're not feeling great, Kat. *sends love and hugs if ok* I hope your emotions start behaving soon.

Morning :)

I'm glad you're on a better ward now Jen, have my fingers crossed for a pre christmas release!

Cheese and pineapple sticks are so good

Sorry to hear you feel so terrible Zurg, I hope your day improves!

I've just had the biggest sleep, today is feeling like a nap day

Ninja Lindsay, morning!

Just seen doctor. Going to stay in another 24 hours but hopefully get home after seeing my consultantwho is working tomorrow.

Morning Lio and Lindsay!

How are you both today?

Is that ok with you, Jen? How are you doing now?

I'm just dreading the day as usual.

Sorry today isn't treating people well. I've got a visitor this morning but I don't know who!

I have cleaned out the boys and assembled the cheese and pineapple sticks!

Cheese and picked onion is also a good combo!

Nap day sounds good lio :)

That sucks jen. Fingers crossed for tomorrow! Can you escape for a coffee?

Ooh surprise visitor tamo! How exciting

My mum and N both came :) my mum and sister R are coming at 5.

How lovely!
Did they bring anything nice?

Tea and pannetoni but I had no appetite for the pannetoni because of my upset stomach. How's your day going?

Could you have it later?
Upset stomachs are the worst

Not too bad thanks.
Had a hair cut, cleaned the boys out, made my cheese and pineapple sticks and packed everything for the next few days. Just waiting for a parcel which is being delivered between now and 2. Then setting off at about 2:30

Hopefully.

Busy busy!

I like to be busy!
Ooh the evri van is in the vicinity!
Just seen it go down the other end of the road

Ooo exciting!

Ooh what've you ordered Beckie?

Sorry to hear you're not feeling well Tamo

I got a free case of different craft beers with an order i made for other xmas presents so it was just that! One of those boxes that comes with world beers and snacks.

How are you beth?

Afternoon all.

Hi insig and Ahimsa, how are you?

I am not so good today tamobhuuta. But ty for asking.

Sorry to hear that.

Ooh that's exciting Beckie!

I just heard Wham on the radio. I believe this is Whammagedon?

My missing amazon parcel from yesterday has turned up! I ordered something to arrive today and it came with it. So now I have my parcels.

I think that it's the Christmas number one tamobhuuta so it's bound to be even more on the radio if that's the case.

Leaving love for everyone.

^Thank you - desperately needed - also will do the same here for others because I'm a wreck and perhaps too far gone at this point.

*welcomes love*

Cheers Lindsay.

What's everyone doing this evening/whatever time it will be soon with you Maii?

Packing stuff to take for Christmas at my parents.

Working! The usual!

Then trying to catch up on chores from Mondays list that have been moved and moved

Evening folks! Sounds like it's been a tricky day for lots of you so sending many hugs if needed!

I just did three lots of baking and they're all terrible so I'm having a nice big sulk.

Oh no Jenna, what happened?

I managed to leave my house keys in the car all day. While I was at work. In full view of a full retail park.

Luckily they're okay!

Got home and realised I bought flowers on Thursday which are still on the kitchen counter and I forgot!

ADHD where?

I don't know, I'm just bad at baking I think :'(
Now I'm opening my post and sending a sarcastic commentary to Lio :P

Oops, so pleased your house keys were safe! My partner once had the whole workplace looking for their keys at the end of the day, which turned up in the ignition of their car in the car park having been there all day :')

My mum and big sister visited briefly because she needed to get home and pack for her early start to France tomorrow.
