    I know, it was discovered after my last op under general anaesthetic, my heart went all dicky under anaesthesia and when I came round I was hooked up to an ECG machine, they requested that I had further tests the week later.
    In the end they just said - "Well, it must be just normal for you." :confused:

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    What's your current other problem Jinky? Are you ok hun?

    pooky-you are far more organsied than me...I made oatmeal raisin cookies with the kids yesterday and banana bread today with bananas I had frozen instead of chucking (of which I was very proud-small steps and all that) i am trying your 'adapted' curry recipe tomorrow in the slowcooker with beef-I bought some dried mango as ALDI didnt have apricots...

    Beef and mango sounds yummy Buns.

    I'm only organised as I have nothing better to do - it would all fall by the wayside if/when I go back to work.

    Ah well jinky-I went back and forth off them for ages-thought I was ready for a padded room yesterday-not making light of a serious issue, but I was daaaaaaaaaaaaark yesterday...cried pretty much all day....

    Pooky-even when I was off with kids (ok, worked full time as childmiknder and mamanger for Virgin as well) I never did stuff like that. I have set myself a challenge of £60 per week for food-went over today by nearly £9 but did buy a loot of 'store cupboard' stuff and my calulator/phone died 3/4 round the shop...

    What's even worse is that I read it and didn't even notice!

    I allow £250 a month for shopping, yesterday was only £42 but last weeks was £70, it all evens out...unless it's a 5 week month and then we have to be really creative :D
