    Hi All

    Sorry I have been MIA for so long .. things have been conspiring against me & life just got a little too difficult :o

    I under-estimated how much losing Diva was going to affect me :cry: she was one of my best friends & I miss her so much .. luckily I am fortunate to have a great relationship with her OH & Tris & we are in touch regularly :A

    My CT scan results were not what I was hoping for & I'm awaiting news from The Royal Marsden on that.

    And I have been in a long legal battle with my sister concerning my Mum's will .. the upshot of that is I can't afford to fight her anymore financially or emotionally, so I have to sell my house .. consequently I'm moving in 5 weeks time :eek:

    Hopefully that goes some way to explaining my absence .. thanks to all my lovely flylady friends who check on me by text/FB etc & special thanks & love to Jinks who really has kept me going thru all this ... love ya babe :kisses: :iloveyou:

    I haven't caught up with the thread but love & hugs to all & welcome to any newbies.

    xx

    Hi LL! Sorry you're having such a tough time. Sending you hugs, spoons, smooth move vibes and anything else that might come in handy.

    I'm bathed and dressed, one load of washing is pegged out (I'm risking it) and the WM on again, dry clothes sorted and the bathroom tidied. DS2 now needs to get ready so we can walk up to the market before I fall asleep.
