    Hi everyone

    Just posting before bed, have my 3 month check up scan at the hospital at 9.10 to check ovarian cyst. DH's wee mini op went fine, thanks for all the good vibes although he hasn't to shower for 2 days :eek: so I was dreading the bedroom tomorrow, gonna wait until Sunday to change the sheets cos he will be smelly ;)
    I had a lovely night, big bubble bath, candles, wine and laptop on a stool catching up on i-player for a full hour, I de-fluffed, (now have a tidy lady garden :p) deep conditioned my hair, exfoliated and moisturised, was pure bliss, :pDS is at Grans thats how I got this done. Really should have been stitching the blackout linings for the curtains but got a busy weekend so ho hum....

    Soappie – Well done on passing!:T:beer:
    Jinky – Glad you are back :D

    Carlsberg Just what others have said, that is horrible, wish you all the luck in the world :A
