Weeks Twenty One and Two - Happy Birthday

At the end of week 21 we celebrated my 42nd birthday, which I advertised as my "Answer To The Ultimate Question" party but in my head I referred to as the "Hey, I'm Still Here" party. For me this party was a real indication of how far I've come. I worked hard on Saturday preparing pretzels and tidying up, then partied until after midnight and drank quite a lot of Milton Brewery Jupiter and not only did I survive without feeling too strange (although I did sneak in a little rest early afternoon) but I felt OK on Sunday too. And I chaired parish council on Monday night.

Having said that I have suffered for it in week 22. I've had dizzy spells and feelings of strangeness on several occasions so I clearly did overdo it a bit.
