    I am insane lol, although I have just eaten some nice jaffa cakes lol till my dad took them off me.

    Just had a mighty shock in town so still calming down from that still want to cry. My little girl has what we call her do's its where she goes really quite and unresponsive and some times changes colour.

    On the bus into town she fell asleep, she has this balaclava type hat and she had pulled the mouth bit over her mouth nose and eyes. I managed to get her off the bus and was going to carry her to the bus home bust woke up so decided to take her roound town. I told her that we were not going to mcdonalds just going to 1 shop then going home. She started arguing with me and seemed really confused so I put her on my back and carryed her. When we got to the shop I put her on the floor and she lost her balance and nearly went head first into the shop window. She had turned a very weird yellow colour and was not with it.

    Any ways we are home now and its like nothing happened she is up stairs bouncing on the bed and making a lot of noise. She has not had one this bad for a long time and its scared me half to death, I am wondering whether she cut off oxygen by accident, she had that mask covering both the mouth and nose when its only meant to cover the mouth and she was leant on the bar.

    Never mind, sorry for long post.


    Wow ZLS huge hugs to you and your DD.

    Thanks Flower! She has epilepsy which has got worse over the last year and this is the 4th time she has been rushed to hospital since August. She was vomiting for half an hour before she left school yesterday and still vomiting at the hospital and they were trying to control it. She wasn't very responsive and had lost her spark and bounce (she is VERY lively!!), and the vomiting is usually a warning of a major fit and status epileptus (sp!) She is an unusual case due to her other special needs, so it is a big worry. Last time, we were getting updates at school but I won't find out any more til Monday now .......

    Huge Hugs to her.......Epilepsy is really frightening, DH has daily seizures his medication is consistantly reviewed, Its why we have to be careful not to overstimulate him when we visit, to much can trigger a grand mal.

    I'm miles behind because I've only just put the computer on!

    Two loads of washing draped round indoors, drying now the heating is on.

    Went over to DD1's and did some dusting and vacuuming before she got back from holiday.

    We emptied out the little bedroom (into the middle bedroom) ready for painting. The shelves etc are down too and everything is dusted and vacuumed. So, in theory, painting can start tomorrow. We'll see.....

    Off to catch up in between cooking tea.

  • Right....I am still filing/shredding/moving stuff....

    I have now also found my tennis racket (makes more sense re: the tennis ball now!)

    I have 3 full bin bags, plus 2 carrier bags of paper recycling.

    OH has done the washing, put in TD, washed up and kept me going with hot drinks whilst passing me stuff that I can't reach which is on the floor! He is now lighting the fire!

    Also today rang up about our Broadband which was going up to £15 as of next month. (has been £10 for the last year). OH rang and said he was wanting to change provider..they said "Oh, maybe we can do a deal for you!" So they offered £12 a month til April....he looked at me, I shook my head as knew we could get it cheaper elsewhere. He said no, they said "Well how about extra included phone calls". He said no, as we have inclusive minutes on mobiles and unless they were offering free international ones it wouldn't benefit us.

    So basically...he said, "I'm really sorry, but it's just a case of keeping the monthly bills down and we know we can get it cheaper elsewhere, so please can I have a MAC code to transfer it over".

    Suddenly they can keep it at £10 for the next year which we happily accepted! (Sometimes a plan comes together!) :D
