RIP Mobile Phone

Since I got back from our Honeymoon I have had a headache every day, not necessarily a full blown one but a definite ache there constantly. As you can imagine this is not very nice and I am getting annoyed at it. It's mainly on a morning and it gets worse when I have a coughing episode, for example last night I was doing my physio and the right side of my head felt like it was going to pop everytime I coughed.
I took some books back to the library the other day and the two second walk it took from the car to the library made me cough alot and then voila I got a splitting headache, all from retuning a few books!

Enough is enough, when 2 cocodamol and 2 ibuprofen are not shifting the pain, intervention is required! So I called the hospital on Monday, I had been putting it off as I don't want to end up on IV's which is my dread everytime I dial that number! I spoke to the nurse and asked her if she could send me a prescription for doxy... whatever its called (my medical vocabulary is amazing I tell you...!), surprisingly she said if the doctor said it was OK then that was fine. Wahoo! I didn't even have to go see them! So I am just waiting to receive that and then hopefully it will help stop the headaches as I am assuming it is infection and inflammation in my sinuses.

I have had to buy a new mobile phone as mine decided to start dying on Saturday. It was teasing me and flashing on and off, my poor mobile, I'd hoped it would survive forever but alas its days are over. I had hoped I could buy the same one. This is a sign of me getting old! I can't be bothering learning new functions on a new mobile and my lovely Samsung D800 does everything I require of it. But no, they don't seem to do it anymore and somehow I have ended up buying a touchscreen mobile which I swore I wouldn't do as Pete has one and I can't use it! I know exactly what happened, it was pink, what more can I say...? So since last night I am the owner of a pink Samsung (I kept with the same make to make my transition easier) tocco lite. We will see how it goes, I can see it been a love - hate relationship!
Does anyone else hate having to transfer all your numbers, photos etc to the new phone? I do! I spent all last night doing it, this is part of the reason I put off getting a new phone for so long!

Alfie started his dog training classes again last week, he did very well. There are some massive dogs in this class, like one of those Akita's and a very bouncy Labrador. Despite been surrounded by giants... Alfie did well for his first session, we are starting clicker training this week. Apparently Chihuahua's don't always take to it (why am I not surprised), so we will see how it goes!
Alfie hurt his back leg again on Monday so I was the owner of a hopping, three legged dog for the day. I was going to video it but felt cruel! He is much improved now, he is not screaming anymore when I try touch the offending leg and he is walking normally again, so I think he just pulled or twisted a muscle. I did spend most of Monday holding one of those heat up rice bag thingys to his leg, that dog doesn't realise how lucky he is to have such a caring owner!

I've started back at the gym after a month of not going! I am planning to join yoga as someone on the CF forum said it can help with your lungs. So my plan is... gym on a Monday, swimming on a Wednesday and yoga on a Friday. We will see how I go!
