'The best things in life are nearest: Breath in your nostrils, light in your eyes, flowers at your feet, duties at your hand, the path of right just before you. Then do not grasp at the stars, but do life's plain, common work as it comes, certain that daily duties and daily bread are the sweetest things in life.'
Robert Louis Stevenson

I am now a bit worried having read some replies to my thread about Bill's new medication (Venlafaxine). Even though there's a couple of positive posts it's the not so positive ones that are sticking in my mind. A bit scared now about how things will be when we change over to this.

Bill has spent the whole day in bed sleeping. About 5.30 I went up and asked if he wanted to get up and he said no. He wasn't really tired just didn't want to get up.

I would also need to make sure I didn't lose Bill so I think that a guide might be the best bet now. Forgot to change the time on my mobile phone so...

I have to get up at 6.30 for work tomorrow - bodes well for doing a good Friday morning assembly at school!!

Just wanted to let off steam - again! Got home at 7.40pm after having been at work since 7.15 am and was checking through the mail. A package addressed to Bill was there - containing a bank mandate forms for him to fill in for the life insurance cover he had organised with someone on the phone!!
It had his date of birth down as 1950 (it's actually 1930) and is for 10 years of cover! This is the second company to have organised something like this with him over the last few weeks. Again - I...
