Hanging around the house is probably what we would do all day in any case, even though Jim wants to go and see Team America. We've both got colds again and I feel I never really recovered from the one I had months ago, so I'm not very amused.

On a brighter side, on Thursday I finally started taking Metformin. About bloody time, if you ask me, as it's about a year since I asked for the drug from my GP!

I still can't quite believe we had to wait for eleven months for our initial consultation! And then the consultant didn't even bother sending the info to my GP before I made some phonecalls up and down and got less and less polite as it went on. And when I finally got my prescription it apparently was flawed and the pharmacist first tried to tell me she couldn't possibly give me the drugs and I'd have to go back and see my consultant or at least my GP again, but luckily (for her) she caved under my mighty stare of desperation and fury. So yay, I have pills!
