    Hi everyone
    Just back from the hospital with LO,he had an asthma attack couldnt speak,was falling asleep and I couldnt wake him ....very scary....called an ambulance they put him on a Nebuliser,his sats were below 80.....got to the hospital and he was almost back to normal....did I feel a fraud.
    Very nice nurse did say I had done the right thing though,he now has a Ventolin inhaler and Prednisolone tablets and has to see the doctor this week...maybe now they will believe he has Asthma and treat him accordingly

    Very little flying done ...sorry...

    OH in Oban all next week so hopefully will keep up on next weeks thread ....we will see....

    Love and Hugs to all xxx

    Weather? We're in for some wet stuff overnight.

    Look here

    See that thick white band crossing the south coast from France? That's heavy wet stuff that is.

    And see that?

    That's not looking too pleasant either!

    Hey ho. Off to bed to snuggle under the covers and hope the trees at the bottom of the garden aren't so waterlogged on their roots they'll fall down.

    soappie I think we all need to hibernate! -2 outside here now brrrrr
    Oh kazw aren't new cameras fun...not....my partner is the same
    mummyyof5 of course you did the right thing, good luck with the GP it needs looking into
    kazm, I think you are being sensible
    pigpen, poor kitty cat, hope he's chipped & you can find who is missing him
    greenbee they are so cute! Have you thought of a brace if it's hypermobility? DP has Aircast works great to stop the overflexing (not cheap, you can get them on ebay etc)
    Mudbath if I'm out lego hunting & you still would like one let me know & I will keep my eyes open, :rotfl: my DS1 could probably tell me which have him in. I've seen seperate chewwys on amazon. Oh which shop has the £25 offer on? Both my boys Jan birthdays too. With Lego we're learning if there is something they definately want, get it by mid November at the latest! We have got the enormous millenium falcom (not lego)
    Froddy my DSs know Mammy just likes Ewoks! I get lost off with Star Wars stuff, we buy vintage stuff & let Dss play with it :D

    Managed to get 4 more boxes sorted through tonight, bin & recycling box doing well out of it. DS2 helped, DS1 moaned & went to bed then sat awake, excuses me thinks! I've not done the kitchen as DS2 and I only finished at 10.25pm as I lost track of time. Arm going bonkers so enough is enough, it's still clean & tidy apart from in that one cupboard.

    Sat decluttering some red berries & raspberries from the freezer....only thing I could find to go with it was Ben & Jerrys nomnom shame huh!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

Basically I did something this morning to my netbook and it will not type, it jumps to shortcut keys and opens loads of windows....really frustrating and I can't suss it out. I've took the shortcut keys off from the accessibility bit on control panel...I've tried holding down both shift keys nothing has worked.So I'm stuck.:confused:

    Morning ladies! gaehn4.gif


    cycling yorkie - hugs.gif Hope you can get some sleep somehow hon
    Jinky - Missed you too, especially over on the SCD thread!kiss.gif
    LadyL - Missed talking to you today, hope you are having a FAB weekend in Brighton.. maybe next time you go away you should go see the NY Yankees play??HSwicked.gifsmooch.gif
    lala - your husband and GP are right, you mustn't go back until you are well and you can survive on less money for a while, I know.
    Valli - I have had 7 for a while cos I love my tabs at the top but I always ignore 'One note' as I am too scared to open and read the instructions..Let me know if you work it out and I will use and abuse your knowledge..giggle.gif
    Toots - I am not in a wheelchair and I am not in the least offended. It's about finding something that is suitable for both me and my OH.
    AnWs - Hope Miss A feels better soon and that you don't catch it too.
    lil-me - I am getting a grant hon, but thank you very much for the suggestion. It was a lot more before I got the grant! Had to sit and look at loan application forms today for the £3665 we have to find and it just makes me want to weep. However.. I will trust that something happens before I fill them in as I cannot believe the Universe wants us to go into more debt after all our hard work to bring down my OHs debts for the last 5 yrs.

    Sorry that was a little self-indulgent, I know people have far worse problems on here and it's only money. giggle.gif

    sexymouse - Glad you are feeling better hon hugs.gif
    Mof5 - That must have been so scary - hope all is well now
    Froddington and toots - I love StarWars too but the thing that I might have collected a few *ahem* figures and bits and bobs from is Wallace and Gromit. There is no truth in the rumour that years ago I used to have a bit of an addiction.HSwhistle.gif

    I hope you all have a lovely Sunday! With love, light and HShuggies.gif to all

    Massive hugs mummyof5 -that's the thing with asthma, if you get the right drugs you can get better so quickly and then we feel frauds taking them. You definitely did the right thing. Hope he has a good day today and you look after yourself too. It's just horrid when your children are ill xxxxxx

    Lil_me - I'm going to stick with the lego set I got but thanks for the offer. I'm going to get the magnetic chewwie (only us friends can call him chewwie) figure set for a stocking filler and then I'm going to get my daughter the magnetic father christmas figure set because I really like that one:rotfl:.

    The lego offer is at toys r us - it's a £20 gift card to spend between the 27th Dec and sometime in January, I think. You get one if you spend over £75 on lego. Not bad eh!

    Right, dogs to walk, people to see :D.

    Piggers - i'm very jealous of you getting another puddy cat.

    Frodders - I'm wondering if we should rename you Ewok! I went to get something out of my fridge this morning and started giggling at the thought of your little magnetic starwars men. Just as well I'm home alone! xx

    LL - hope you've had a really lovely time - hugs to you xxxx
