Just popping in to give (((hugs))) to sparrer ...RIP Ying x

And great news that your leg is getting better CCP. I bet you are looking forward to your DP's visit

couple of pleasures

1. finished work at 1pm

2. its friday :j

3. had my hair done, not very OS I suppose although my lady does work from home and charges £36 for cut & colour plus foils, but its now a lovely rich brown with auburn slices and it is a lovely warm colour which means I dont look so washed out,
and....
hairdresser has some similar symptoms in her foot as mine. Doc has said my leg/foot is sciatica, phlebitis and diabetic neuropathy (sp?) but I keep getting shooting pains in my foot also when I put my heel to the ground and my hairdresser has been told she has "policemans heel". If my pain doesnt start to ease soon I am going back to the doc again & ask about this. Not sure I should still be getting this much pain when I am taking 23 painkillers a day (this is a statement and not a request for medical advice ...in case anyone / mods not happy)

4. quick tasty tea of things that could just be put on tray and bunged in oven

5. looking forward to my bed. Just off now so have a good weekend all x

sparrer aaawh, sending warm hugs with a bit of a breeze

Take care xx

Oh Sparrer, I am so sorry, R.I.P., little Ying.

Good news from CCP at last and I am pleased for that. Onward and upward!
Having cared for Asperger's children, Master Frith really made me smile. I could picture it all. What a shame that book wasn't around 18 years ago. The other children I cared for would have benefited from a read, the huge majority were great kids and would have tried hard to understand.

Skinty, I have had plantar fasciitis aka policeman's heel (along with phlebitis) on and off for years. Thankfully it has eased off in recent years. Not the phlebitis (which is more like cellulitis).

Soft inserts in shoes greatly helped my heel pain, along with gentle stretches when the pain had eased.
I wore hard soled shoes with no shock absorption and suffered a spontaneous tear of my achilles tendon as a result. Ironically, the shoes were built up to help with another medical condition, and caused far more problems than they solved.

Policeman's heel is thought to be over - tightening and strain of the tendons in that area, but opinions vary. Again, this is my experience and I am not offering medical advice. I have to say that painkillers weren't much help for me, it seemed to be a different sort of pain from my arthritis pain.

Have a lovely day tomorrow, VJ'smum.

Will post my OSP collection of a few days tomorrow.

Ready for the Rugby again, and the current Lady BoP is off to a shin dig later as well. Hope she keeps sweet off them Babychams.

Is it Birthday greets to the Tea Lady?

To & Yeah, agree.

Just trying to get to Wembley on 5th May. Absolute Nightmare! No trains through Reading, OK, we will park for nought at Wendover. No Trains. Hillingdon. No Service. Beaconsfiled, forget it. Lady BoP getting all dizzy and agitated likes yous gals do. Thinks well, we do not want Public Transport on a Bank Holiday. Then remembers that the railways were worn out after WWII, then nationalised and no money spent on them for best part of 50 years. And still we have ...

Rite, I did side track again. Great not having to pay the TV tax now, we snoggled up for a game of cards last night and I had to stop at best of 5, as Ms BoP would had gone on and on and on and on and on!

Oh, and SPARRA Hugs, but Henley got ... at Saracens

bop: chastisement due and you'd been doing SOOOO well -
'.........getting all dizzy and agitated likes yous gals do.'
Now, this may be your way of receiving a little extra choice punition from Lady Black. Too many treats.

Will extend this to include my own pleasures later. I am in full pre-match prep. mindset now. My expert advice during le match demain will be voluble and full of lively insistence. These are the lucky chaps who will benefit.

Sparrer: my heart goes out to you, with the cats and ferrets here when we lose one it never hurts any less. Each time throu the tears I think I can't take anymore, and then I look at the fun and games and how they interact with us and pick up on our feelings, so they keep turning up. Hugs.

I am back online, thou I have to say I did do lots more stuff without it. Ampersand I think you have the right idea of a day a week offline. DH is a tech engineer so took it apart and got it running but only for 3 mins flat. Armed with my usb key I was able to get a few vitals off it. Now looking to save everything off it in future I will not be saving anything on the new one. Its all on a cloud even the office applications I am still trying to work it out - ahhh.

CCP that is a great deal for the lappy, I looked into mine which needed a few specifics for work decided on one, went out to get it, to find the “one up” from it was reduced to the same price, so opted for that and it comes with a full 2 year warranty where they pick it up and either fix or repair, used Costco before and that's why we returned as they have been so good.

We are spending an easy weekend at home doing bits that we tend to avoid like de cluttering etc around the house.:o

Todays pleasures,
1.Waking up without an alarm.
2.Filling up the OGV with “stuff” twice for 2 tip runs.:p
3.Managed to do 2 hours weeding and gardening before hail stopped play, with lots of interactive animal "assistance":rotfl:

4.Happened on one of those amazing charity hawls last week, a series of books that I have on my amazon list 50p each rather than 7 each, and a lovely book called the campervan coast, with some fantastic recipes and hints. for 50p some other bits like 4 disabled handles for dad and chair raisers and an big fluffy soft fleece for the animals.:cool:
5. Dinner will be a surprise either I will be good and cook or bad and drive around the corner to the Chinese that always has a que out of the door,:rotfl:

CCP

Evening all.

PK - it's actually a desktop, not a lappy, and quite an old one, which is why it was so cheap. It will do me for six months or so, though, until my finances recover and I can buy a new desktop / lappy / tablet (I haven't decided which yet :think:).

1) A very long lie-in this morning. I haven't been sleeping well recently, so it was nice to wake up late after sleeping through the night without being woken up by bad dreams.

2) A plant I bought for 50p last summer has got buds on it, and the cowslips which self-seeded in some of my pots are also nearly out in flower.

3) The wather hasn't been nearly as bad today as was forecast - it's been chilly but sunny, which is fine by me.

4) My foot was a bit sore again today - I think I overdid things a touch yesterday in my pleasure at being able to get outside again - so I spent a chunk of the afternoon playing a very absorbing free computer game. :money:

5) I had a nice, OS, home-cooked dinner planned for tonight but have found that I really don't fancy what I'd planned. Then I found that a new takeaway pizza place round the corner is offering a 50% off introductory offer, which is just too good to resist.
