    I realise I have a bad attitude. while I am off sick I am going to ebay like crazy and try to make £1,000 in 1 month. Going to the post office will be the job of OH I have my old platinum engagement ring mount with some tiny diamonds in it that might go for like £100. Loads of coach handbags but they dont seem to be too popular here, and some gerge jensen stuff. we will see what happens!

    I think you are entitled to a bit of bad attitude - things have been cr*p havent they. I think you are doing remarkably well. I think we all have times when we feel like that (well I do and havent been through what you have been through).

    also tomorrow is your next surgery - you feeling nervous for that? I hope it goes well as can be.

    If you are in London could you not take your ring to that jewellery place - is it Hatton Gardens? I took some jewellery into a local jeweller who gave me more than I thought I would get because he could give the diamonds proper value.

    Blah to HMRC - dont they drive you nuts! I often have to deal with them in my job - make them put it in writing to you .

    LAM great idea.

    Tomorrow morning is my surgery and I am very nervous. I also must shave my legs. I dont know why I care as they are working on my boobs but somehow having defuzzed makes me feel cleaner

  • I found the pics of the post-mastectomy tattoo!

    One Sunday a month for two and a half years. That's a lot of tattoo!! I've pinned it on my pinterest board (on my art board) so if you're on there this week, you'll get the original link.

    Good luck with your surgery today. Will pop back later and see how you're doing.
