ISOM glad you are feeling better - yes I am home - unfortunately there is no 'recovery' -I go in every 6 weeks for treatment to keep me going - without it I would not be here very long - so I am fine for now thanks xx
And I for one would like a piccy of the lots of love bowls. I have been roped imto helping a friend with a Christmas fair in november and she wants some hand made stuff - I dont know where to start!!!!

I have noticed a huge difference in the evenings since I came home - in the hospital the lights are on all the time but here I wasn't putting them on until way after 8 but not anymore:(

off to do some of the sleeve!!!:rotfl:
love and hugs tootsxx

Hello ladies - what a horrible night - DOH was on call and as is always the luck he got called in left at 11.00pm and got back at 4.00 am - needless to say I dont sleep when he is here - hes now in bed and I got up to get DS off to shool so I have little sticks holding eyes up:D

chalky - the blankets are beautiful - the colours you put together are always so good - thanks for the notes to help you when putting together - that helps - I always do odd ones but can see that you would need four all same colour -well done you xxxx

tooti-frooti - bet you are glad you are home - although food sounded tempting especially Friday there is nothing like home - I think you are amazing going in every few weeks and still sounding so cheerful - well you know we are here whenever for whatever for a virtual hug and support xx

isom - is your little car home? - hope you are feeling better - Mum & Dad had an accident last year and Mum is still having problems with back and chest (went to the Drs only this week) of course the age they are they didnt speak up at the time and she has kept it quite for months - keep an eye on yourself - big hugs xxx

F1's GUIDE TO TV ! :rotfl:-whilst on own last night I watched My Boyfriend the War Hero - so very sad but the lad, who lost both legs, an arm and face was damaged, in Afghanistan was very courageous - an amazing lad - his young girlfriend at 17/18 was his carer - was doing a great job but then right at the end they said that three months after the programme they split up
DR MARTIN - was hillarious on Monday night - now waiting DOWNTON ABBEY - oh and am enjoying the SEVEN DWARFS (C4) - I promise I dont watch that much TV.....................;)

Bye for now - incase im asleep later - have a great day - whatever you are doing whereever you are xxx

Hi everyone. I'm taking a break from filing; it's not just ordinary filing, though. I decided to go through the whole filing cabinet (now, why did I do that? It's only made the job seem even more of a chore!). Anyway, some files are full of rubbish so I shall sort one file a day, leaving in only what's truly relevant. Moving house and moving country just makes for more paperwork, so I know a lot of it can be discarded. I collect even more here these days; I dread to think how many trees France gets through; they just love their bits of paper!

Anyway, even more paperwork yesterday when I visited the insurance company having been fobbed off by them when I tried to make a claim for lightning damage. I had definitely been fobbed off, too. The new lady there (British, so really efficient!), has put the claim through - I won't get as much as I thought I would because of the type of policy (the last agent should have reviewed it regularly but chose not to), but I know I'll get something, plus I've upgraded the policy to give me better cover.

Well, the update will get done this afternoon, fingers crossed, once I've nipped out to the post office.

DH is out quoting on job right now, but he's taken the car because a friend has borrowed his van, so I'm without transport at the moment.

Chalky -the blankets are lovely. How on earth do you find the time to be so productive?! Love that link you put on FB, by the way!

Jean - hope you are pacing yourself and not running at full pelt!

Pippa - hope your OH is doing well, and that your wrist is feeling better.

Shaz - hope things are going well for you today.

Tootifrooti - you must be glad to be back at home.

ISOM - hope you are feeling less sore these days.

My poor mum still hasn't really got over the shock of the cataract op; I spoke to her last night and she said she wishes she could turn the clock back and not have gone through all the trauma of the op, because she doesn't feel it's made any difference, and they didn't tell her really what to expect, so we have no idea how long it's supposed to take to be able to see results. I phone her every day expecting to hear her say that she can see really well, so it's very disappointing. Perhaps we are both being too impatient? I don't know.

Anyway, I'm off to put the kettle on and will call back later.

I have about twelve' kiss the geezers' squares in my batch, because I finally got round to finishing them! At least they'll be ready for the next shout!
