    jc, I have a friend with fairly severe rheumatoid arthritis but she has it well controlled and the pain is managed very well.

    Bitsy I had a breast lumpectomy, but I feel a fraud because it's not hurting really and when I'm not doing anything I feel absolutely fine, it's only when I start to do things that I have a problem.

  • Got to say I must be in some alternate dimension. both my kids have asked to go to bed at 7.30pm. Whats going on?!!!!!

    Any chance you could get them to have a word with mine?! :rotfl::p

    Hart I must admit I'm terrified about her starting secondary school in a couple of years - she can suffer terribly with a real lack of confidence in herself, and I think sometimes the bullies pick up on this as an easy target. We went through something similar to this last year, and like you managed to get her taken from class that the bullies were in. It really did make a world of difference, that's so true.

    Hope all went well for Diva this afternoon :)

    i told him that i`ve thrown his coat in the bin and the bin men have already been and taken it :D he has a horrible old coat which is covered in grease stains and is a nasty mess but he uses it to walk the dogs despite having a few decent looking ones. It was a bunch of rags and i`ve tried to ditch it a few times but he`s always got it back. His reaction wasn`t bad so after i got off the phone i ran out and really did throw it and the bin men now really have been :rotfl:
