Hopefully her last night in the hospital
My mum will be out of hospital, fingers crossed and all being well, tomorrow sometime. She called today to tell me dad had checked out of his visitor's room, and had gone back home to pick up some of her clothes and check the cat out of the cattery. Now, my mum has been optimistic (to say the least) about her release date so far, and my dad has been the cautious one. If he's checked out and collected the cat then he can't be expecting her to be in hospital much longer.
She's still shutting her right eye to avoid seeing the weird images that her brain creates to try to make sense of the very fuzzy amount she can see through her right eye (because, basically, she can see colour differences still). She is seeing an eye specialist (it's late and I'm not spelling opthalmo...bod properly) on Monday which is something to look forward to. Bdum - tsch.
I had my second round interview for the job I would kill for earlier this week. I want it even though it would involve an hour drive each way; which should give you some inkling of how much I want it, that's how lovely this job is. I'll let you know if and when you will need to avoid London roads, don't worry.
I have another interview tomorrow and I am knackered. My eyes won't stay open. I have read the website and prepared some responses to suggested questions. I'm beginning to get concerned I'm not concerned enough. The rational part of me, which is fast cracking up under the steely glare of the larger paranoid part, considers that as I've had three interviews in the past two weeks or so, I don't actually need to re-prepare the things that have been churned to the top of my mind. Things like, why I want to leave my current job, why I'm great, which worlds I have conquered in the last three months and which diseases I have cured in my spare time.
So I'm going to call it a night. Relatively happy thinking my mum is probably spending her last night in the hospital, and that this time tomorrow I'll be in bed and asleep, and this whole two week long period of slightly-higher-stress-than-usual will just about be finished.
G'night and sweet dreams. And positive vibes again for tomorrow please - they seemed to work earlier!

Relieved to hear your mum is doing so much better, and as this was posted on the 22nd, hope that she is now out of hospital and recovering well. Also hope all went well with the interview - fingers and toes crossed x
Much love, Lucille
