urgh I went back to bed at 5 oclock, headache no better in fact lots worse and feeling sicky too. Just cos of AF. Night out cancelled DH says I dont look well, he thinks I look a bit run down, he's never ever said that in 11 years!!! It must be bad!!
But - am really hungry now having only had toast all day ....

Did hardly anything at all today, just photographed the toys I want to ebay tomorrow. Havent written any descriptions or weighed anything or worked out a price so its not looking too good.

DH did go out earlier and get the Cava from M&S- worked out at £37 for 12 bottles, thats our New Year party sorted! Thanks again Dusty

congrats to soappie's daughter :T:Tsounds like she has worked very hard so far, continued good luck for the rest of her course. Oh and hope your nose is ok

also congrats to lav :j:j

rose, yes my DH does that too - him: "have you seen the thing with the thing in it". Me : No" :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

vanilla - bout ye! nice to see you! "mine did the same" - OH playing COD I presume ??? Mine is playing it now. He is more than happy that I am in bed with a headache I think!

moam - have you tried the likes of Asda Tesco etc in their school wear section for a pair of plain black school trousers ?

helen - save us a slice ov cake would ou, I :heart2: coffee cake

toots - glad you enjoyed your trip to town, well done for braving it but please be careful and take it easy ! (sorry I know that must seem really patronising and annoying)

Valli - another Day After Tomrrow / The Core / basically any blockbuster apocalyptic type movie fan here too - hoping to see 2012 on Thursday :j

I have just returned from seeing the ex and told him I cannot see him again as it is too painful. Something I did not think I would be strong enough to say at one point however there is no other choice it had to be done

I am back home after weeping away for a long time, tears are gone now and I need to get up and do something so I am going to tackle to spare room at 1.30pm for a while and tidy it up as there are clothes and presents all over the place.

• Tidy spare room
• HHI
• Finish of kitchen list
• Make a list for tomorrow's tasks

I haven't read much of the thread this week so I don't really know what is happening, happened etc. I wish good health vibes, hugs to all if needed and a big smile to everyone else who wants one

hugs honey - take care!

You take it one day at a time - we're all here for you!

My sis's marriage broke up a while back - she had some very hard times...but is now all loved up with a brill new fella!

toots xx

That appears to be rather rich coming from you toots :rotfl:. Seriously I am going to take it easy which is why I need a plan just to do bits and pieces. They dont think treatment will start next week but when it does it's likely to be twice a week for 4 - 6 weeks, and in my naievety I thought it would be canular in, squirt of stuff and home, but now with a bit more info I think it will be the four hour session drip drip drip.... :rolleyes:

DD - well she's been good all week (ish) but of course its gone t*ts up today. Dont think it will ever change and it will be just like me and my mum, love her to bits but just dont get on

The cold compress worked, just feels a bit tender now. Sleep well Toots - I suspect the others were wrapped up in the X factor or something

Yep was watching X factor and then the Piers Morgan/Vinnie Jones interview. I feel for you, I only have a little woof and I know how much she can hurt. Hugs x

Evening all,
Had a nice, if wet and windy day out on the south downs today with my M&D. Have just taken my sleeping pill and antianxiety medication for the first time, and I think they are starting to kick in. It's definitely harder to type now.

Massive hugs SM, you've had a rough time of late and I hope the meds help. x

Well I'm going to do a little more finance updating before bed (and I know I should be resting but I'va already had one sleep this evening )

Back from the concert, which was excellent. DH's cold is starting to come out, poor thing. He has his exam on 26th so hopefully it will have gone by then. To top it all there are signs up saying there are going to be roadworks at night on the main road outside starting monday. Not impressed as we've a) had no letter about it and b) there's nothing on the tfl website about it. I shall be on the phone on monday!

lil_me

Sorry not had time to read through, ((hugs)) where needed, I will try to catch up a little tomorrow.

Was an OK day until I got a call on my way back from my Dad's from little Matthew's Mam who was in tears & very distressed. Little tike has fell & got a very bad cut on his head about 6cm long down to the bone. Wasn't this that caused as much stress but the fact the local A&E can't deal with it due to his heart condition & have referred him to another hospital for plastics to operate in the morning under general sedation. I think it's just because it's the first time in 2 years (was 2 years a few weeks ago) that his condition has become a 'problem' and realising even what would be minor things can't be treated at our local A&E for him. He's home now, fine in himself but please lots of ok with anaesthetic vibes needed for 9am tomorrow. I've not long since got back, trying to just be there for her, got her and her partner some food etc as they had not eaten all day. I know they won't sleep much with the worry of sedation tomorrow.

Apart from that I had a nice evening at Dad's, met his girlfriend's daughter who seems nice.

I do have some more positive news, DS1s results came through from his tests with the ed psychologist. His reading ability age just over 13 years, his reading comprehension is at 16 years...he's 10! So I am very proud and even more keen on trying to get him some mainstream access on Monday!

I best go, need some sleep, DPs event tomorrow so I will be there for part of the day but also on call incase Matthew's Mam needs me. Goodnight everyone x x x

soappie

Lil-me - big hugs love and positive healing vibes for little Matthew tomorrow xxx

And well done on your DS1 tests - you have every right to be proud there - not only for him but for you too - bringing him up the way you do so well xxx

lil_me

Thanks soappie, means a lot, I feel guilty sometimes for coming on and posting without being able to read through everyones news. Miss you all so much when I don't have the time to keep up on here x Hope your nose is ok in the morning x
