Evening all.
Physio was very good today and she gave me some homework to do, I have to go back next week.
Flutterby I am sorry to hear your friend's bad news, but they wouldn#t suggest the operation at all if they didn't believe it would be of some benefit. I am glad to hear that you submitted your application too.
That's SIL and niece off home now, she offered DS1 to go over on his own for a week! :eek: I don't know how I feel about that, I think he'd have a blast but being without him for a week? On the other hand he will be away for the school week long holiday next April or May so it would be good practice for us all.
Hope you are OK NPM I have been thinking about you.

Morning all,
OH could not get out of bed again this morning, it seems that his back seizes up overnight, once he is up and moving it seems a lot better, he is off to work today.
Ruby are you sure its not the mattress on your bed???? I had a problem with my back, could only roll out of bed onto my knees and pull myself up with the knobs on the bedside cabinet.
We bought a new bed, no more problems with my back!!
I have been awol for a couple of days, nothing much to report, I am sure my scales are on the blink, I stood on them this morning 13st 4 lbs, how could I put on over 4lbs in a day, then I moved the scales and stood on them again 12st 4lbs......what is going on.???? I think I will have to make a regular appointment at the surgery and get weighed on their scales, I simply cannot lose a stone in 2 minutes.:eek::eek::eek::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:My trousers are not falling off so there must be something wrong somewhere!!:D:D
Windy again today, more time in the garden, all the washing and ironing done and put away.
Sorted the bed for my DD and her young adults coming next week. Will give the bedroom a 'bottoming' next Thursday before they come. I have to pack my machine away. DGS hope he has not grown any taller since we left, his feet will hang out the end.:rotfl::rotfl:
Supper tonight, cold salmon, salad, new potato's for OH and a mixed fresy fruit cocktail with yogurt for dessert.Was 13st 8 lbs,Now 12st 11 Lost 10 1/4lbs since I started on my diet.0 -

Hey all,
Had a pretty carpy day today. Didn't go out on the major lash to celebrate the new job as I wanted an early night as was doing a 7 -6 today but my plans were spoilt by some idiot trying to break into the shop just before 11. Got a call from the alarm co and had to call the police and get them to take me in as I couldn't go myself. The window had been smashed but wasn't right through so came home after 12 but couldn't get to sleep til 2 and was up at 5.30. Had planned to start eating a wee bit more healthily today as have been shovelling food in at night and am seeing it in my trousers but was so knackered that i got one of the girls to get me a can of coke and one of them sensed my pain and brought me a strawberry tart!!!!
Did have my nice roasted toms and cous cous for lunch and fishcakes and peas tonight but am shattered and off to bed now.
Thanks again JackieG and glad the physio went well XXX'The road to a friends house is never long'0 -
Glad to hear that the physio helped Jackie, nothing worse than pain in the back.
Flutterby....agree with what Jackie said...they wouldn't operate if they didn't feel it would help....hugs and good luck with job application.
Ruby...might be worth OH's while getting one of those support things that are advertised....kind of like what weight lifters wear, OH has had one for years and finds that it really helps.
Very tired all day, off to bed in a bit, really want to get up early to-morrow.
Night all,
