bloody hell woman. I had an awful feeling it was something serious but didn't want to pry. I am SO glad you have had the all clear, I can't imagine the relief.
And with all the other gubbins going on as well, yuk you poor thing! I know you don't do victim but I hope you are keeping going.
Exciting news on the flat hunting :j and so great to hear from you. So what if the money has overrun a bit, sounds like nothing serious and you have been putting it to good use.
Hope the other bits heal up quick.... my younger brother had dreadful eczema when we were little and he really suffered with it. Stress is definitely a trigger for both of us although I have pretty much outgrown mine now thank goodness.
Massive hugs - and a great sense of relief here for you x
PS - may be up in Edinburgh for the up and coming harp festival so will shout when I know more. Would be great to meet up if diaries allow.0 -
OOh Id love to meet up. Not flat hinting quite yet but I'll keep you posted.
And yes ladies...it's great to have the all clear!
Just checked the medication Im on for the vile boil. It doesn't mention no booze so Im enjoying my normal Friday night cider!'The road to a friends house is never long'0 -
Glad everything is ok with you now Souk.
Harp festivals sound interesting indeed LHGSome days there aren't any trumpets, just lots of dragons. Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, I will try again tomorrow -- Mary Anne Radmacher0 -
Found £42 in my pedicure box today! I'd drawn £60 out for food at the beginning of the month but ended up spending the £42 online on my debit card so put it there meaning to pay it back to the bank but forgot! Going to get the sleeves on a Spring blazer sorted in preparation for nice weather, buy a new cheap pair of jammies and use £10 for groceries. Not sure how much the blazer will cost so may even have a bit left. What a bonus!'The road to a friends house is never long'0

Phew! Go glad you're OK, much have been such a worrying time. You have my sympathy with the skin stiff, as a fellow sufferer I totally understand! Am sure you're right about the stress factor too, that is always my trigger

:grouphug: So sorry to hear you haven't been well but so relieved that it's not as bad as it could have been. Was shocked and upset for you reading that update about the cancer scare.
I expect the skin will calm down in a few weeks as your general health recovers. The stress you've obviously been under will definitely have made the skin problems much worse.
On a lighter note I think of you every time I see Mary Portas on tv, I've been watching her Ch4 programme about the knicker factory and assumed you'd have been watching too

Watching Mary and her knickers now!
Thanks girls and feeling much better now.
Payday tomorrow so have a whole £1.50 left in my account :rotfl:
Will be up early to do budgets tomorrow and see what I can save this month.
Slightly over on groceries this month by £12.11, but not too bad.'The road to a friends house is never long'0 -
