How's the lady greenbee??

I'm back. Edinburgh was cold (but lovely). Haven't unpacked yet... Need to clear out the study (where all the stuff from the rest of the house ended up last week) without redistributing junk all over the rest of the house!

OH was fine while we were away, had a lovely time, enjoyed himself, was happy ... started getting stressed again about half way home He misses his kids so much and is trying to keep everyone happy no matter how much I tell him that its an impossible task.

So far today... lay in bed reading a book... brought in kindling and logs, moved more logs from the outside log store into potato sacks in the shed. Need to chop more kindling (so hoping OH will come and visit sometime soon ).

So today... I guess I should go and do some food shopping and take in my dry cleaning, and then do indoor stuff including ironing, writing cards and wrapping presents so I know what I have left to do before Christmas!

Will also be making a GP appointment on Monday as things still aren't good... not sure what's going on, but it isn't right

Hope to catch up with you all properly next week, but I see that Valli, Sockdrawer and lil_me have all shared good news today

Yep... but was told to test after 2 weeks anyway. So we'll see. Suspect it might be better this way right now as I'm not sure OH could cope - well, either he wouldn't be able to cope or it would give him the kick he needs to get through this bad patch. Don't want to push my luck and find out though...

well im back as have been out and about this morning. decluttered some christmas pressies to OH's grandparents and got some in return. stopped by supermarket on the way back and wish i hadnt as it was mobbed. dont like shopping in december as its a pain.

now home and had some chocolate but really need to get something properly to eat and then start doing a little bit of cleaning.

I am not going to fly properly today just going to keep on top of the kitchen and living room since im a messy person at heart.

love hugs and spoons to all those in need.

Valli

slight change of plan

making baked stuffed peaches

well I have no peaches so it's nectarines and I'll have to miss the egg yolk out!

and the LSB says I pass the cooking test

well DURRR - wasn't aware I was being tested - it's the not getting on anybody's t1ts test that's the clincher;)

I can cook if I can be bothered! Anybody with a sweet tooth would be mightlily impressed my dessert and cake and biscuit repertoire :rotfl:I mean I can knock up a Tarte Tatin without a recipe! *glow* (mind you I buy puff pastry;) who wouldn't?)

Hi everyone, not been online much this week. I am actually quite ill at the mo, had to go see the dr wed as what I thought was IBS I dont think is. The pain is like a tight knot just below my bra line and stretches doen past my belly button. Anyway the dr has given me some very strong painkillers and some kind of tummy pill and has taken blood tests. She ran through a lot of things of what it could be and has put me down for a scan.

I think I may have a hernia or ulcer but as they are easily sorted not going to worry about it. On a positive note I am rapidly losing weight as I cant eat that much!

Anyway halfway through cleaning, will update later.............

Valli

sorry to hear that 1 step

hope you find out exactly what it is, and get it sorted, soon.

Loving the Pollyanna attitude though:T

No, its not how you would imagine the perfect scenario to be.

My MIL has now been given 6 months to live...she has the kind of cancer caused by asbestos exposure.

Valli

Grateful sorry to hear about your MIL - there's lots of information, and a support group on-line about asbestosis and mesothelomia

(((hugs)))

Thank you. Not much can be done as she is old, even by modern standards, and as you guys know, not the easiest person in the world.

Still, horrible news.
