    Good morning

    I love that song Mg, although my favourite is when a child is born.

    I might put some christmas songs on while I'm trying to tackle the dining room.

    matymoo, I know what you mean about grinning everytime you come into a newly decorated room, I'm the same here, I'm loving the way my house is looking now :) Can't wait for the dining room to be finished :) and my new cupboard up.

    I haven't done much today only cleaned the kitchen floor :) still sore after what was done yesterday. Got dr's today so going to see if I can get some stronger painkillers. The injection is working overall but not when I'm lugging boxes etc around lol.

    I'm going to tackle the dining room once I've had another coffee and a shower.

    Another one doing a headless chicken impression today! Been up hours and don't seem to be getting very far.

    Been and checked that old ladies house is warm for funeral, prepared it all yesterday and must say it looks and smells lovely.

    Washed bits that don't go in dishwasher, wiped surfaces and cleared table (again:eek:) I can't keep mt table clear at the best of times but at the moment - no chance.

    Tidied living room - needs quick hoover.

    Realized I hadn't yet washed my hair and only have an hour before I have to leave for funeral:eek:- hair now washed and just needs drying and sorting out. Thank goodness am having it cut on Friday!

    Coffee drunk now must get going!

    Good luck for everyone today - MG in the snow, and robsmum with the funeral. I'm shocked at what I've done to my list - I have nine ticks on it!!! Still got 7 that have to be done today, but some of them are very little. Onwards and upwards.

    Hi everyone, hope all is well. Many of you sound like busy bee's I need to catch up a little.

    Hoping to get stocking fillers sorted today and get some prep done for the impending snow..argh.

    Which means;

    coal, petrol, food, rest of pressies, etc, etc.

    Is it bad that I cba'd? Can someone give me a good old positive kick of power?

    Just a quick catch up & visist

    MG - Morrison's had a great offer on loo roll earlier this week - 16 rolls for under £4 - worth a visist if you're passing (I now have enough loo roll for the next 6 months)

    Thanks Clootie - will pop in tomorrow when in Glenrothes. Better empty the car boot - LOL

    Just had the postie in delivering a parcel - a huge suprise as this is something I've been keeping watching out for as its something a very kind peeps was organising for DS1. A parcel full of chocolate Santas, fabulous soft toy Dragons (both boys are nuts on Dragons have I mentionned that??) some grown up sweeties that I hope are for me :D and of course DS1's Xmas present.

    BTW!!!! I've kidnapped his DSi and it works absolutely perfectly.:j So now we really are set for Christmas:T

    DS1 is going to be so excited on Xmas morning.

    Off to finish my door curtain, feed the boys some lunch and then onto the baking.

    We are pretty busy on here today aren't we??

  • Can I please have some positive vibes for my OS not sure if I have posted the details on here but it is on my diary he was walking in Cardiff and a stranger jumped on his back initially dicharged from hospital with a sprained ankle but readmitted for MRI scan which revealed ligament damage on both sides of his knee and a dropped foot. He was suposed to have his first op today but this was cancelled as his surgeon developed cardiac problems and had to be admitted himself :eek: so he is going to a different hospital tomorrow for the op.

    I really need positive vibes that his nerve is not severed which will mean another op this time in Swansea and that he is discharged by Saturday morning at the latest. Also need no snow overnight as the new hospital is up quite a steep hill. It is going to be a long job for him as he has to have another op in about a month and they reckon that it will take at least 6 months to get better and he will not be able to drive so lots of practical problems to overcome.

    He is feeling really fed up which is not surprising.

    So please positive vibes that things go really well tomorrow. I really need to leave Cardiff with him on Saturday or else I am going to have to make even more readjustments to stuff.

  • Dear DT, Sending all the vibes I can muster for you and your DS, for good outcomes, manageable timings, weather and travel conditions.

    Will be sending all the above in the direction of S Wales with virtual hugs to keep you calm, warm and comforted.

    I hope you've got something good to read/do to keep you distracted and t help time pass - a lot of hanging around hospitals is spent just waiting for time to pass. So some occupational therapy for you will definitely help!
