No real flying tonight. I have maths work todo. Its multiplying and dividing by decimals - completely new to me and I struggled to help the lower ability ones today when it came to the division questions so I've brought it home with me Off to read the text book :wave:

Gryfon

ZLS...you'd be best going to the doctor and getting it checked. Hope you feel better soon

SummerMoon

I would just like to say a HUGE thank you to ALL of you for the kind words of support and encouragment.
I'm feeling a whole lot better about everything now.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!

Mudbath I did mean the initial recovery, she was still plodding for a while but the self pity didn't last too long. Within a week ish she was just upset she couldn't go out further than a small walk on the lead and jumped over the fence.....
Soappie must have been typing when you were. Good on you for speaking to the chairman about the hostility, I know you wouldn't let them get to you but still, if they can't arrange that I would say no too. Poetic justice, probably the best way to put it, he was a very poorly man so however sad, as all passings are, he's at peace now.
emily how lovely for you to be so much a part of things with your friend.
Summermoon you are most welcome, there are plenty of wet kippers left incase you feel the same again
ZLS no, that's just how I was when I had them. Some people don't get any pain or loo issues, I was in hospital with someone who didn't, they found hers by accident, lucky woman. They do in most cases cause gastritis and bowel issues. Espcially after high fat meals/food the body pumps more bile in to deal with it, which comes from your gall bladder, especially if one of the rocks get stuck in the duct it can cause extreme pain, until it passes it's nasty. Infections can also be nasty. Noone can give medical advice on here, it's not allowed, but there is many sites with how to possibly reduce the pain through diet etc, some say you can flush them out, I tried and it didn't work. Are you booked in for surgery? GP would be able to give medical advice of course, unfortunately found even morphine didn't remove the pain with mine when it started.

No spend day today again DP did buy me a yorkie bar but that came out of his spending money not mine Oh I did have to pay for Beavers but due to a mix up with the theatre their panto trip was cancelled so when she gave me the refund I used it to pay for the last weeks until Xmas up front, that's 'planned' spending anyway I suppose. Dinner for the boys was burgers and wedges, fruit for desert, a little salad with it for DS1 and DS2 had beans. Got some out for mine and DPs supper which I will do later. I did think I was going to have to make them with the mince but a rake around the freezer I found some beef ones for DP and the boys and there is a pork and apple one for me, even had the rolls in the freezer. Didn't bother with other meals today, DP had toasties (were in freezer) just had a yoghurt to tide me over until he gets home as I was flagging.

Kitchens messified again, I wish I could be a tidy cook, I would blame the small kitchen but I was just as bad with a large one, major clean up every time I use it. I always say I will be tidier as I go, it just doesn't happen.

Tonight for me

Half an hour sock sorting (Holby's on so will do it then while boys settle)
Half an hour tidying my room (Holby time still....)
Kitchen clean and tidy
Empty dishwasher
Make mine and DPs dinner probably about 10pm
Uniforms sort
Empty wm and put on airers/in drier

summermoon, just a few ideas, although my 6 yr old is a girl, got a digital camera for £25 in asda and the mp3 player for less than £5 on grabitnow.com, also some disney jigsaws in tkmaxx for £3 and some cheap games from tescos(£4 for bingo etc) als some dvd's, this may seem a lot but will be "sold" to other rellies to give and then divided between chrimbo and her birthday a week after.
hth.
hope everyone else is having a good day, get well to all poorlies including spotty puppies! and those who are tired/fed up with this crisis going on.
