Ps must tell you ths at about 12.30 last night me and H were running round a la Benny Hill style chasing the killer cat who had a mouse in her mouth!! Bl00dy animals, I only released she had something because of the chirrupping she was making eeeek!I have a gift for enraging people, but if I ever bore you it'll be with a knifeLouise Brooks

Hi All,
Back from Drs. He's made a hosp app for me to have 2 scans on Fri 18th to find out what the black spot is on my Kidney. First scan will be on the Gallbladder/upper organs, the second scan will be on the kidneys/bladder.
He will also make another hosp app for my Duidenum Ulcer and the H.Pylori problem because when I went to have it checked last Wednesday the hosp said it hadn't improved. Whatever next ?? Fed up with hosps. Anyhoo thinking possitive is the only way forward.
I'm going to make a steak & onion plate pie, broccoli, cauli & pots for dinner, so glad I chopped & froze a huge bag of onions. B/day cake for pud. I'll make enough for DD, SiL & DGD and pop it over to them this afternoon and collect their ironing.
Must order more logs as we have DH's family get together here on 19th, there will be 14 in total for the w/end. Must do meal plans and check freezer & stock cupboards.
Off to clear patio with DH to make space for the scaffold.
Hope it's a good day for all.x0 -

DD2 loves parsnip chips.I am going on the school trip this morning. With my circumstances the first thing the school did was have me CRB checked so every off site visit I can accompany the class. Its nice I love it. I dont get DD2's group but I am there if anything suspicious happensSo I best get off to do these parsnips...2 days until court... wish me luck girls. Theres a post in Relationships if anyone wants to know more....Huggles to allC x
Morning Farmers wife. How on earth do you get up so early? Do you go to bed really early?
I'm asking as I am finding it harder and harder to be up at 545 and I thought that was early!!

SC Lasagne...
This is my concoction
Fry mince 800g as normal and dispose of yucky oil stuff , add onion and garlic fry a bit longer so no yucky stuff left, add 2 tins of chopped toms, a sprinkle of mixed herbs, squirt of tomato puree, S and P to taste. Then layer up as you would normally, switch the beast on and off it goes. My smelling lovely ATM

Morning all,
Washing is drying,need to get another load in too,and change a couple of beds.My ironing has reduced a bit because I made myself do some just before tea-told myself I'd just do 10 things but did 20:jHouse is fairly tidy,but with both DS at home it'll not last long-I think its the last day on this job for DH too so he'll be at home as well till the next job comes up...soon I hope for my sanity and our finances
DGD came to visit yesterday after tea with her other Nanna so that was nice.She'd just been fed before she came tho' so was asleep by the time they got here.She did wake a bit as DS took off her furry all in one and had a lie on her playmat gazing round.We've sent a lot of the clothes Ds had here for her back with Nanna as otherwise they'll not get used-I cant see her mum letting her stay over yet.Also nappies,as she'll be too big soon for the ones we have,they might as well use them.DS will visit them later in the week too.
Picked up a ys beef stew at the supermarket yesterday so we'll have that for tea & leftover mash.When I've done the rest of my jobs I'll go and do some more CCards,I love crafting/sewing-makes me calm :rotfl:
Betheebee-its RedRubys daughter on work placement, I dont have a DD,just the 2 DSsSorry your ulcer isnt improving-hope they manage to sort you out soon,and the scans go ok (((hugs)))
Redruby- poor Dad,I wish people would grasp the idea that if s.o.has dementia they forget to ask for what they need anyway :(I saw this when my Auntie who died earlier this year was in a home-she'd forget to have a drink,end up just having a sip and it wasnt enough.
JG- hope you feel better soon.
JG- ditto& Lou,sorry she's in hospital
FW- I also read your other thread and wish you all the best in court(and life!)
Enough- better go and earn my keep xxx:heartsmil 'A woman is like a teabag: You never know her strength until you drop her in hot water'. (Eleanor Roosevelt)0
