    Haven't done anything yet. Not long come back from college so now I think I'll carry on tidying my bedroom :)

    Have a guess how many things I'll throw away/rehome/recycle in 10 minutes starting from now.

  • cyclingyorkie hope the finger is less painful today and you have had a better day alll round!
    ajmoney be honest with the Doc remember - you dont want this to last any longer - so if you need to rest more to get rid of the pain then rest you must!!! fingers crossed you wont be affected by the cuts.
    sammiell congratulations of the job honey:T:T:T
    Mudbath (((hugs))) for you it must be so difficult taking her in and waiting - hope the news is better when you collect her.
    hellyboo I was interested to learn last week - we had a talk from Blythswood - and they take anything and it is all sorted - anything that is rags they get paid for because it is not going in landfill - so check out your charity shops and see which ones can dispose of rags properly - they dont all do it!
    seafarers-wife - hope you ring turns up.
    Dippypud - hope DH's eye operation was succesful and not too painful
    carlsbergraaaaaaan How lovely and congratulations to Danny - that will give him something to keep his spirits up - Chloe sounds delightful and her Mum sounds like she is taking advantage of your good nature - things will have to change when she is living in her own place:D
    pigpen thats sad about OH's car - hope you can prove it was him before you get the new car!
    msgnomey sorry to hear you have an infection - hope the AB's work soon and control the pain etc - take it easy you are doing well (((hugs)))
    Mollina Girl I see Lame Wolf has beaten me too it:A - the lists are added to POST 1 - usually the night before if pigpen can manage it - no question is silly so dont be afraid to ask - its always worth checking Post 1 as there is a lot of info there.

    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder
    Live each day as if its your last

    Dippypud - hope DH's eye operation was succesful and not too painful

    toots xx

    Sorry Toots, didn't explain it well. :o His bestie mate is a diabetic and has had laser surgery on his right (best) eye, so he can't drive. We've been over to help out, as his wife has ricked her back and has grandchildren to look after. Should be OK for tommorrow, as their DD has the rest of the week off.

    Regards, Pud

    Evening all,

    Gentle hugs and healing vibes to LadyL - hope those puddies are snuggling up to you in this chilly weather.
    Fingers crossed and healing vibes to ajmoney.
    Fingers crossed for stripes and mudbath.
    Hope the engagement ring turns up soon seafarers wife.
    Healing fingers vibes for all hurt fingers.

    Flying wise today, all I've managed to do is empty the DW. I woke up this morning with pain in the right side of my tummy, and as I'd not had a call from work, decided to go back to bed. Was woken up at 12 by a call from work, so decided to get up. The pain got really bad then, and I could hardly walk, so called the Dr. Their phone wasn't working, so I managed to drive myself there - they couldn't see me for another 3 hours. So, I drove myself home, and came back - Dr says it's 50:50 as to whether it turns into appendicitis, as the appendix site is where it hurts when she pressed it. She said to only drink plenty of fluids tonight rather than eat (just in case), take some paracetamol, and make sure Moon keeps an eye on me (no temp at moment, so hoping it doesn't progress). So, I'm heading back to bed now that Moon is home, and I'm going to request a wheatbag and another cup of tea, and some soup later.

    Welcome to all of the new flyladies (and gents if there are any - anyone heard from Oddjob?).

    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
