Holiday week

Yay - it's holiday week we have both taken the week off to chill and what happens - I get major panic attacks for the past three days - I have found it difficult to sit still, to concentrate or settle and my chest has felt like it would explode - I still feel a little unnerved today - so I dug out my needles and continued knitting socks for my Nan's birthday - I can't believe how after the 20 minutes of knitting I felt calmer and more relaxed and the pressure had lifted from my chest. I don't know whether it is the rhythm of the needles or the focus on something that requires concentration that helped but whatever it was - it worked and gave me a few hours respite from this horrible feeling.

Anyway its Poker night again tonight and the start of the new season - the good news is .... I have made it to the regional finals !!! Gav is in the play off for third place to come with us - I hope he gets there it would be so nice if we both made it this time... well wish me luck!
