    Well, here's a good one for you all -

    Six o'clock this morning (having watched moonlight pad slowly across the ceiling like a cat), gave up and decided, as Tuesday's list was already completed, there had to be something else to do. As I like baking bread, went to get scales down from the top of the cupboard. I slipped and the household woke to the sound of me landing like a ton of bricks against the sink.

    Nothing appeared to be broken, but the bit where my lump was found was really, really sore. Said more rude words and got ready for the appointment.

    One scan later and the consultant announces that it would appear that I had a cyst which has apparently burst this morning and therefore does not require any treatment at all! I have to have a follow up scan in a couple of weeks to see if it comes back, but nothing to worry about!

    :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

    So thank you all so much for your positive thoughts!

    oh, I hope you feel better soon :A:A

    Evening all,

    this week is going from bad to worse. I'm still without my laptop, my TD is making horrible noises and can't be used, and my stomach hasn't been right since Sunday night. I came home after the first lesson yesterday and have been off today - spent most of the time asleep.
    I really need to get back to work tomorrow, catch up with school work and stop the house from descending further into chaos. Not sure I can do it all. DS2 is going to start transition to his new school next week and DS1 has his own problems (at least I have the problems, worrying about him).
    I don't know when I'll be able to post again - depends on borrowing DS1's laptop or getting mine back with a working charger. Tomorrow I need to get on top of washing/drying/ironing, call at school to order DS2's new uniform and try to order a new dryer.

    Huge hugs to all others whose week isn't too good, and to everyone else, anyway.
    MrsCx
