A brief post before I watch Welcome To Derry and bundle up.

Yesterday after we got back from walking the pup the phone rang and mum said it was for me. I was puzzled cause… well it’s a Sunday, who rings on a Sunday? Turns out it was the hospital about my eye referral and it’s on Saturday.

Now when the optician said he was referring me he said it would take months to hear a thing and it’d be nothing to worry about so I kinda didn’t think much about it. But the speed that it’s happened (a matter of weeks) feels concerning. Is it the anxiety making me paranoid? Maybe but it just feels… I dunno wrong somehow.

(Also it gives me flashbacks to last year when I was bleeding all the time and they still took months for things to get done, so this happening so fast is…odd to say the least)

So now we have an annoying unexpected trip on Saturday which is just gonna make me anxious and probably be all for nothing. (At least we might go into town and find where the Wolverhampton forbidden planet is so that’s something)

And then today the internet has been terrible. The router cable has been acting up for the past weeks but usually just for a minute or two. This morning it kept going down repeatedly before going off for over an hour. Luckily I’d gotten fed up and ordered a cable last night though that took ages to arrive (it was meant to come between 12-3 it didn’t come until almost 6). But I just switched it over so I hope that’s the end of it. Otherwise it’s the socket acting up again which… ugh

Tomorrow is the library stint and then I might chase up the student finance stuff and then Wednesday is out all day (the jacket is there to be picked up though so that’s good news)

It could just be that you lucked out and got an earlier slot, there was a cancellation, etc. I hope the trip goes well and that you get some answers.

Oh that is a good point, I’d not even thought of that. Yeah I hope it’s straightforward and not a lot of tests/waiting around. Though I dunno if I’ll know anything, the optician acted like it was just a precaution and would probably be nothing so…

Hopefully it's just a cancellation came up and so you're getting seen sooner. Fingers crossed it all goes well.

I’d not thought of that but now it’s been said that does feel like the most likely thing. Thanks I hope so!

Yeah, I have to agree with the others, it may have just been a cancellation. Especially with the forecasted cold weather, some people may have pulled out of their appointments.

Hopefully, it's an easy visit with good answers.

It’s not something I’d considered but now you’e all said it feels so obvious! And yeah it really has gone so cold ugh. I don’t blame people cancelling cause the hospital is out of the way and a pain to get to (there’s a bus that goes there but only in the mornings)

Hopefully! I don’t expect to learn anything really but still
