Well I was going to reply to this honestly, but then I reread the guidlines in a bout of paranoia and realized that nothing that has happened to be lately, good or bad, is appropriate….haha. So… I dunno. I guess I should start doing more appropriate things. ;P

Oh, there is one good thing I can say.

My sister in Rehab is finally getting to see her daughter more often. Didn't happen to me directly, but it makes me very happy.

Good Times

To be honest very little has been “good”, but….

• I have iTunes match on my Laptop, iPhone and AppleTV meaning I don't need a hard drive hooked up all the time for my music…but I back it all up just in case anyway.
• I got to see my sister last week, I miss her. Get to see her Thursday too which is nice.

Bad times

• The headaches just won't go away. It was initially thought there could be a cranial bleed, but that has now been ruled out, and it would appear the pain is being caused by nerve damage in my neck…which happened when I was 18.
• I've been diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my right knee.
• I have tried to do various orders from places for American candy to try and cheer me up….and EVERY ORDER HAS BEEN CANCELLED. Everything I wanted is out of stock. I'm a little narked.

GOOD TIMES

• I have invested in an iPad! I have a wifi-only 32Gb iPad2 which is a nice piece of kit and great for music and graphics. Pretty good for games too. It means now my laptop is like a “base station” where I can back up my iPhone and iPad and my music collection is still safe residing on an external hard drive.
• Next month, I'm upgrading from a 32Gb iPhone4 to a 64Gb iPhone 4S. Yeah I know that the new iPhone 5 is most likely to be just around the corner, but to be honest, I'm more interested in a phone with larger capacity and better camera….and then upgrade again in a couple years.
• No palpitations for almost 2 months! I honestly think that my heart being ablated has workd…at least for the short term.

BAD TIMES

• I have been diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my right knee. This would not have bothered me too much except that has been diagnosed in my “good” knee, meaning I can do a really awful John Wayne swagger when I walk!
• The headaches are still there. They come and go, and they seem to settle over my right eye. Thankfully it is not down to a cranial bleed (I use anticoagulants) but are being caused by the nerve damage in my neck. I think the headaches are attacking my concentration too, as it feels a lot worse than usual.
• Sleep is driving me crazy….or should I say lack of it. I want to sleep, and when I do I'm having recurrent nightmares. Damned if I do, damned if I don't.

Glad to hear the good news about your heart, Yam.

GOOD TIMES:

A friend recently relocated and now lives just a couple of miles away

I have finally started a retirement savings plan

BAD TIMES:

My car radiator is leaking

I just burnt my finger on the fireplace!
