It's amazing how quickly the day goes when you venture into plant website

DS1 on the sofa now and feeling a bit better, watching a cheap DVD he had for christmas from DS3.

Think I'll quickly make some scones and maybe some chocolate muffins or else I'll have achieved nothing.

Lady-Liberty

Hello :wave:

Sorry folks .. I don't think I have made an appearance since New Years Eve

I've crawled back out from under the BD ... as the regulars will know it was my DS 21st Birthday ... that had been my incentive to fight for so long .. to see him reach that milestone ... once the day was over I kinda went into meltdown & started to think there wasn't anything left to fight for all my strength has gone ... but I had some wise words from toots :A :A & I've realised I've got to stop feeling sorry for myself it's not achieving anything ... so my next goal is his graduation this summer .. so that gives me another 6 months of fighting at least

So I'm back ... gonna kick this cancer's a$$ & put my happy face on again

I've had a quick skim ... big hugs to Helen J & Kazw posi vibes for both of you & respective Dad & OH xx

Love & hugs to everyone else ... I'll try & catch up ... thanks as usual to my "support" group who keep me going & check in on me on FB & by text ...you know who you are xx

Special love & hugs as usual to toots xx

mummyyof5

Wonderful to see you posting LadyL....your son is SO worth fighting for...he is a lovely young man.xxx...Huge hugs to you xxx

I have made the dreaded phone call...just waiting for them to phone me back now as my Ds is 16 so they are not sure if he can still be seen at Childrens or not....the adult hospital is even more difficult to get to :(..nothings ever easy.

Was about to make Chilli and rice for tea..went to fridge for onions and saw a load of veg at the bottom which really needed using up...so mince in freezer and corned beef stew simmering away on the hob

DD2 cleaning fish;);)

toottifrootti

LadyL its really good to see you posting angel - you are a strong lady and I am sure you can do it! we will support you all the way. It will make DS's day to have you there so save the spoons and start planning the day! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

mummyyof 5 well done with the phone call - there is nothing you cant do angel - you just need to prepare yourself first.

well 'my inspiration' just posted at the right time so I am now going to get of my bum and do something!
toots xx

Triker

Hi all, good to see you LadyL...remember the old saying...'if you knew you couldn't fail...what would you do'?


Car has passed its MOT....yippee.

I've also filled a binbag with junk.

frugalbrunette

Reading today has made me realise that you're a little community here. I thought it was just a thread to post your daily chores on but it's much more than that

Sorry for bounding on in here with my excitable posts about getting chores done. I hope to stick around though, in it for the long haul

I need to empty washer and airer it. All momentum for getting off my arris has left me now

cat_smith

Best wishes and hugs to eveyone who needs them. Haven't been flying for long but its nice to have supportive people around.
