    hi there kj, what a mix of news. Don't know what to say really
    woop woop for all the positives about wills, and tax returns, and health and radiotherapy.
    Shakes head at LB. Oh well lots of other fish in the sea, some of them not the least bit gramatical. And if he can't stay with you during your various 'lady' incarnations, then he wasn't the one.

    As to your ex, oh ho hum, erm. YOu spent so much time looking after him, helping him, guiding him through when he went eventually blind, that I find it astonishing he can even 'think' that you might be trying to diddle him. Tis truely sad what money or the thought of it does for people.

    I hope you can come to a rational agreement about it all. But I am struggling to see how at the moment. Good news about the rent free in your dads house situation. Hope that can be sorted soon

    I want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?
  • Good morning KJ & everyone else :)

    So glad to see you are back, I hope you start to feel a bit more like your old self soon hun. Kitten sounds like it has come at the perfect time to help distract small boy & you. They really are so loveable, a much better bet than LB *tuts*

    Thanks all.

    DFW - I shall laze away the rest of today apart from training at 5pm. Got up to 45/60 minutes last week, see if I can do the same or better today.

    Chev - Twonks United :rotfl:Really have tried hard for them all but enough is enough. LB chats via text when it suits so I just chat back. Ex-OH has gone ominously quiet so probably building a Death Ray or some such thing.

    FF - Thursday is great. 7ish suit? Kitten shall be spruced and ready for inspection...he's still at that lovely mental stage, really makes me smile :D

    Radio is done for today and SB has his driving test this afternoon, so fingers crossed for that.

    Hope everyone has a lurvely day :j:j:j

    7ish on Thursday suits me fine :D

    Keep your phone on - I barely found your house in the daylight last time, I might struggle at night!

    FF - Will do. Toby's had a lecture on not showing us up and being good kitten. TBH I'm not sure he was really listening :rotfl:

    Hi SJ...the tiredness used to come and go I think it's a build up of the treatment,travelling etc.Mine hit really hard about a month after the end of treatment and to this day I still get the odd truly exhausted day but luckily fewer and further apart.I'm now very in tune with my body and rest when I have to and no longer feel the guilt if the housework etc isn't done due to tiredness

    Sh - He failed for going too slow...the only 18 year old boy to manage that one :rotfl:So it's rebooked for March 22nd and hopefully we can get (appropriate) pedal to the metal by then :cool:

    Taxi - Many thanks. I've definately been feeling the cumulative effect recently as it's never stopped since July. You've done so well, I just need to dig deep and keep going. Thanks for all the info and insights :A

    Daily zapping has been done. I'm still uncrispy which is good and long may it continue. I can only use unperfumed stuff on the actual zap site so I'm using nice body buttery stuff everywhere else because smelling nice makes me feel good, especially when I'm half-naked part of the day and not on Jordan's salary :p

    Off to see the muppets (starring most of the men in my life) later this afternoon. SB is on cat clean-up duty if he wants ice cream, dinner and cinema - any readers with 8 year olds will be disappointed to learn that no, it never gets better but they can be useful :T:T:T

    Kitten licked and snuggled husky last night, Valentine's Day come early. Looks like he will be coming here on adoption rather than fostering basis, but should know for definate next week. SB will be very happy (as will Ms Fresian) :j:j

    Hope everyone's had lots of cards, choccies, smootchy moments etc - I shall wait expectantly like the sap I am :o

    Hurrah for kittens :D

    No flowers, chocs or anything similar in Fresian Towers. Mr Fresian had all his romantic bones removed at birth!

    If you're at the cinema I usually see you at I may well bump into you there as we're off to see Chronicle tonight (Myself, friend and her boyfriend) as Mr F is off to the north for a couple of weeks and I'm not spending Vomit Day on my own :rotfl:
