Yes I did too and then went off on a tangent looking up loads of other songs. Felt quite moved but in a good way. She would have loved them
Molly - I LOVE Time to Say Goodbye, it gives me chills when I hear it. I think Sarah Brightman sings it the best.Many thanks for that - and it's good to hear he's doing OK. So sad to think that MDS was supporting him through his bad times yet she's gone first.
Pleased to hear he's progressing slowly. Seems are really cruel twist of fate that Diva leaves before him when he was so close to death on a number of occasions
Loulou - Glad you got a little bit of sleep. Hope DS carries on playing and is hopefully on the mend x
JackieO - Oooh you have been spoilt, lucky youEnjoy your evening.

Tea LO Pie from y'day kids wanted boiled egg and soldiers :T, just waiting for brownies to call before we all snaffle em
lou - Hope DS improves x
Hi Mooloo makes pillowcase dresses. She has a thread on Family board. She be happy to help im sure xI must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.0 -
Lady-liberty, who was MSD's closest friend, is in touch with her OH so I'm sure she will let him know about the threads.
Thanks ivyleaf yes, I have let him have the links so he can read all the messages when he is ready ....
I know I don't usually post on here but thought I'd add what I put on the flylady thread ...
Hi Everyone
I have been reading thru all the lovely comments about Diva she would be overwhelmed ... I know she hasn't posted on this thread for quite some time now but whenever someone mentioned her or sent hugs I would pass the message on ... typical Diva response was "I'm surprised they still remember me"
I'm still pretty numb ... it's beginning to sink in that I won't get another text or a phone call with her singing down the line simply to cheer me up ... I know exactly what she would tell me tho ... "Get a grip ... life is for living .. make the most of what time you have left darling" ... she has said that to me so many times in the past
So that will be my tribute to her .. I will keep fighting & make her proud of me ....
Love & hugs to all ... hold your dearest close & don't be afraid to tell them you love them ... Diva & I never said goodbye with out saying "love you" ... I can be grateful for that.

no he doesnt like eggs ie scrambled egg. has it in things like cake but even then thats not very often.
all he has eaten over the past 24 hours is rice with peas (one of his favourite things!) and a few slices of banana. he's not eaten anything today
he is actually playing at the moment :eek:
I do hope your little lad starts to improve soon bless him xx
Julie, big hugs to your dear friend, how terribly hard for her xx
Fairy, I hope to god she has not taken him back xx
Went to the Dr this morning, and like Loulou's he was a bit c**pdoes not know whats wrong with me, its either a virus or the start of shingles, he has given me nothing for it, just told me to rest and paracetemol, told me to take the week off work to, but we will see, I dont like taking time off.
OH is just doing dinner, I prepped a beef casserole and jacket spuds earlier, feel as weak as a kitten now though, early to bed for me again tonight0 -

RR- Watch out for rashes, and if one does appear fly to the Drs. The sooner you get treatment for Shingles the less of an impact it can have

evening all!
been a busy day at work today.
Some beautiful songs for Diva :T I'm glad to hear that Tristan is still doing well, it was this that Diva and I pm'd about as my best friend had terminal cancer and Diva was wonderful and supportive to me.
I'm sure her family will find great comfort in knowing how much we all thought of Diva.
Just had tea - homemade chips, egg and beans, yummy!:)
WM is on, have tidied up. Both DSs are at friends tonight so a quiet evening here. Dogs to walk and washing up to do before we sit down.
Another early shift tomorrow for me - roll on Wednesday for my day off!
Redruby - hope you soon feel better x
JackieO - happy birthday, glad you've had a lovely day:bdaycake:Do what you love :happyhear0 -

Sweet dreams :A
Happy birthday jackie!!!!!!!
ooo you have been spoilt! So you should be too!
Have a great day x
Been a hectic day again, finally finished my mock, my poor brain was breaking with the spreadsheets. Went to physio, but i have to go back at the end of the week for another check up. Which is all good:T. The physio was lovely, shame i get a new one next week.
Had a quick meal for tea, i'll make something more substantial tomorrow, was just too tired today.
Still not finished though, have to take coddy to cadets and force snips to bed.
Hope your little one feels better soon x0 -
Evening all
The thread has brought tears to my eyes with all the lovely messages for Diva :A She was a special person who will be greatly missed by all those whose lives she touched.
JackieO - happy birthday hun, glad you've had a nice day x
I had a busy day at work. Brand new group of kids started today, only 10 instead of the normal 15 as we are struggling for numbers this time of year. Nice number to start with though. They are a lovely bunch, lots have issues but seem to be managing. The day just flew by!
I felt a lot better today, still had a few dizzy spells but they were short and manageable.
OS wise - got soup out of freezer for lunch tomorrow, washing needs to be put away, making stirfry for dinner.
Have a good evening all
