    I know I don't post on here very often but just wanted to let you know that I've heard from Diva (as I'm sure Lady Liberty has too) and she's ok. Being sick since she came round at lunchtime and feeling grotty though the poor love.

    Hope it's ok to let you all know :o I get the impression that L L and others have enough on this evening. Big hugs to everyone xx

    13 ebay parcels ready to go.:j 2 still haven't paid.

    I suppose i should go and ready for bed. Hubby has an appointment about his nose tomorrow, i just hope they know whats wrong.
    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.

    Soappie, just PMd you.

    Dusty, so sorry to hear about DS and how lovely your DH is to get him that iPod.

    Toots and AnWsMum, so glad that you had such a lovely weekend; fancy going on Concorde Toots you lucky thing!

    Natty, so glad you got to see the nice doctor and good positive vibes winging their way for you for the follow-up appointment.

    Greenbee, hope you have a lovely bath armed with your book and chocolate (don't drop the chocolate though will you ;))

    Diva, hope all goes well tomorrow my love and thinking of you x (plus of course Toots and Lady L xxx)

    So many other things to say but as I have the memory of a goldfish I'm so sorry but I've forgotten :o. Needless to say I'm sending big hugs to everyone. I've been up since 6 - couldn't sleep so did 2 hours of typing before the kids woke. Feeling a bit up and down today and AF not come yet although I think on her way. Have dropped meds a bit myself as fed up of feeling numb on higher dose of meds and felt better before I went up iyswim.

    Off to MILs in Bude tomorrow pm so won't be flying at all until Sunday - however have vacuumed right through and tidied up so house won't be a tip for when we return.

    Just about to fire up the iron for 20 mins or so and that's all done then.

    I do think it's worth saying that mental illness can be just as debilitating as physical illness :( But anyone who needs a lift just needs to ask for it from the Flyladies - no reason needed - Flylaides are here for everyone :A

    Penny. x

    Can I just say thank you for saying this Penny, as a mental health sufferer - yep I am officially a fruit loop..lol. No seriously I suffer from several mental health conditions that are all related, a lot of the time I don't like to mention when I am having a downer or a bad episode although I think by now most of you know my habits now, and usually know when I am on a downer by going exceptionally quiet. If I disappear for 3 months, as I once did from my local Flylady email group, someone had better come round and drag me out of bed. :D

    Oooh what's a cybermuncher? I better not be one of them..lol

    I hope everything goes well for Diva tomorrow.

    I know I've only been on here for a couple of weeks, but I can see from reading these posts that you put so much of yourselves into them, iyswim. I still have no idea who is related to who, who is doing what with who, who is who etc and I can get mighty confused sometimes but you are all so welcoming and friendly it's a lovely little (or not so little) community. I really hope that I shall be here a lot longer and make some friends here, if no-one minds.

    Sorry, I know that seems a bit sappy and what-have-you and I know I can be very 'socially-awkward' sometimes, but I was pretty shocked by soappies post tonight and I wanted to say my piece.

    Anyway, I'm Polly. I often have no idea what the right/best/'done' thing to say is, so if I say the wrong thing, I'm sorry! My house is almost shiny through the help of this thread over the last couple of weeks and I would like to thank everyone for that.

    And I still haven't mopped my kitchen floor ;)

    Can I claim my Tuesday star please toots.

    And as for Soappies' revelations :eek:,:eek: and :eek:. I hope Lady Liberty is bearing up after this, and hasnt gone through too many spoons providing the support. Hugs also to Greenbee. I am intrigued though as to how Detective Soappie has made the deductions .......

    Hope your appointment is swift Natty, and that your fears are unfounded. Best to check it out and give you the reassurance.

    It has been lovely reading the weekend unfolding with Toots, AandWmum, A and W - as has already been said, what a lot of love, and a lot of fun. Lets hope you can do it again soon!

    Glad your DS is home Dustykitten, and how lovely to surprise him wth the itouch - and obviously a lovely lad as he appreciates it so much.

    Diva, thinking of you - hope that your 2nd op goes as planned.

    Cant believe that I have done so much flying! I am definately having a better couple of days - and have been getting on with stuff. Sat in the sun for a while - felt sooo good. Even managed to get some washing out on the line for the first time in 2 years!!! Although my legs sure know about it now, they are all puffy. Feet up for the rest of the evening methinks.

    Lady Liberty - I hope you don't for one minute think we don't the world of you. You have been so courageous throughout this and your desire to help somebody else was amazing. I know what a wonderful friend you are to some of the flyladies on here and what strength you have you so freely give to others.

    G&B I hope you sleep tonight. I can't watch medical programs, it was heartbreaking hearing the paeds discussing cases yesterday x
