    I haven't read the thread yet, forgive me.

    While I was talking to Tristan in the early hours he started to feel worse (not normally the effect I have on him) and he started to cough up blood. He is now having emergency surgery.. But the Doctors are not hopeful.

    Could I please ask for your prayers and thoughts? He keeps beating the odds but you have to wonder when that ends..

    I was going to post this hours ago.. not sure where the time went.

    I know it seems like I keep asking for help for Tris, and I know I have had nearly an extra year since the coma he was in and not supposed to come out of; but I hope you will forgive me for asking again.

    Thank you all.

    Phew what a day for running about but DD now has her new shoes and glasses tightened. Rhys is still a grump but smiled none stop at the woman in the o2 shop (i got my new phone:j).

    Now i've done a little bit of flying and plan to get loads done tonight once i'm back from my mums, need to leave down all b'day pressie. It was my brothers last week as well as sister and BIL, my dad's was monday, hubby's is tomorrow and mummy's is friday.

    Some asked DD in the hospital if she had the christmas tree up yet and DD said '' na mummy hasn't put it up yet but i'm still waiting, she might do it soon''. Someone kick me hard to get the tree up tonight before i drop of embarrassment.

    Right better go and write cards, wrap presents.

    Toots yay for carpet.:j:j
    nikki big hugs to you and the family.
    LL i'll be thinking of you tomorrow.
    Diva he's in my thoughts and prayers and loads of healing vibes coming his way.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

  • Oh my goodness! Today has been my first day so perhaps it was a little ambitious to try and reach level 3, especially as I didn't find out about it all until late this morning and had arranged to meet a friend for coffee this afternoon. Anyway I've worked really hard and am shocked at how much I have managed to do. I arrived back home about 4pm, just in time to see louboutingirls HHC so instead of sitting down and watching a bit of telly I put 30 mins on the countdown timer on my phone, put it in my pocket and ran around like a mad woman. I lost count of how many times I ran up and down the stairs, the dog looked on bewildered. I feel like I've had a workout but isn't it satisfying? I am going to wrap some pressies and write my Christmas cards tonight whilst watching Emmerdale and Coronation Street.
