    "do they think I am some sort of hobbit"!


    I am in such a pooey place right now, but I'm afraid that's made me laugh :) :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I am laughing. I can't stop. I say the very same thing to the leg waxing lady everytime she goes for the ones on my big toe... I had never noticed them until she attacked them one day! Now I am paranoid about the little devils!!

    Now... hot choccy then bed I think :D

    It is if it's Scotch. If it's Irish it's "Whiskey".

    BTW, the Hemlock suggestion was a joke! I've been listening to the Book of the Week on Radio 4 which is about Socrates. (Retreats back into Lurkdom.....)

    Actually he is not too fussed, he will drink either with a splash of water. Me I only drink Irish (tribute to my roots).:beer:

    Double celebration for me.....my dad's 70th birthday and the unveiling (finally!) of the 'new' house.

    Might even be worth cracking open a bottle of wine ...a real one and not just some pretend non alcoholic one!
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.
