    Sorry I didn't post yesterday, but I have been keeping up with what you are all doing.

    Had a bit of a shock yesterday, having had my hysterectomy 2 weeks ago, I got the pathology results back........it turns out the tumour was cancerous & I have been referred to the Royal Marsden for further management :eek: so was a bit shell-shocked.

    Sexy sorry about the job hun, I had everything crossed for you, the perfect job will turn up.

    Valli glad to hear you had your smear.........& you are more comfortable today.

    Angelnikki lovely to see you posting again.........I'll be back on Facebook soon!

    Toots I was worried about you last night, please don't overdo things.......take care :A

    Hugs to everyone who would like or needs one, all flying delegated to DH still :rotfl:

    Hi guys :wave:

    Oooooh lots of flying going on, I'm impressed :T

    Went down town with DD1 after I last posted, which was unexpected but I'm never one to turn down a trip to the shops, then went to visit OH, then went to work, then when I came in I loaded the car up with the junk for the tip, last trip! woot! haven't been yet tho :o I need food.....

    Soappie just had a brainwave probs a stupid one, but one nevertheless lol - how about putting a tin on top of the dryer and asking DIL to put a £1 or £2 in everytime she does a load, that might make her think about how much it costs? :confused: better still if you could have a pay meter put on it but don't think you can.

    LL what a shock ((((((hugs))))) hope everything turn out ok, I'm really sorry to hear that x

    Big hugs Lady Liberty - Hopefully they will have got rid of everything in the hysterectomy and you'll be ok. Keeping my fingers crossed for you and if you need to talk, or need someone to come with you, you know where I am.

    Lady Liberty- what a blow when you are recovering from such a big op.
    Do you have long to wait for the appointment at Royal Marsden?

    On the flying front I have done very little so I don't think I'll be getting any big shiny stars -but then I don't usually get any at all so the ones I have this week are a big bonus and there are a few areas of my house which are much cleaner that they were.

    Must think about tea now, I have no idea what to have:confused:
