  • Back from the hospital and now need to keep occupied until about 2.30 when I can ring to see if I can visit DH. Operation has got a bit bigger than we thought after consultant was able to review all the test results a bit more, but saves repeat surgery in a few years I guess.

    Right, cuppa made - best go do my first HHC. Will reposrt in later,

    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.

    Happy Birthday Thifty.:bdaycake:
    Sarah thats great news.:j
    Well done on the weight loss BenW.:T
    mummyyof5 hope your back is better soon.:grouphug:


    Thanks for all the birthday wishes.
    So far today i've taken hubby to his appointment. Builder here at the minute but shouldn't be here all day so thats good, only because the kids are off. Hubby now sleeping on the sofa after his late night getting home, i had to lift him in the end.
    Now gonna get Rhys feed and then start the list.
    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.

    Great idea, :T although am not particulary religious, won't stop me doing it. If only I could get rid of this stupid sore shoulder I could get back to the gym, am missing it :(

    The pennies I save could go in the tin for the "caravan fund"

    Vanilla - Have a nice birthday :bdaycake:
