    Hello all
    Have been slowly potting over the last week and a bit. Have lost track of how much but it was at least £7 also, the lovely OH keeps putting pounds in to help :-)
    Hope that you're all enjoying the gloriously sunny weather.
    Hugs to those who need them.

    Happybeingme - you are definitely off and running again now - well done for sticking with it.

    I have some absolutely wonderful news.......my scan to see whether my cancer has spread to anywhere else other than my breast and lymph nodes came back as fine today. Never felt soooo relieved in all my life.

    Start chemo on Monday so apologies in advance if I am not on here so regularly next week, or just leave short messages when I do pop in.

    I am off to celebrate with an ice-cream - woohoo.

    nell36 - excellent news, enjoy that ice cream.

    A bit cooler today, but managed to get some work done!

    Potted a single £2 coin and left a few £'s in reserve - might pot tomorrow.

    £408+ potted so far.

    Good evening potters one and all, and a lovely sunny one it is again too! :cool:

    Sorry I have been MIA for so long; it has been a difficult month (might even be longer, have completely lost track) in many respects and time has just slipped through my fingers. Hopefully surfacing on the other side now.

    I can't even begin to go back through everyone's posts, so hope all is well with you all and look forward to getting back in the loop. I did just see your good news on the last page of posts, nell36, and I am so happy for you (hope you enjoyed the celebratory ice cream!)

    Loving the weather, although really, really suffering with my hayfever - what with popping pills, snorting nasal spray and dropping liquid into my stinging eyes, I do not make a pretty sight these days - I scare small children if I take my sunglasses off, lol :D

    Potting is going (very) slowly, but at least it's going. Still on track for target, and anything over will be a plus. Kids costing me a fortune at the moment with their various activities/new uniform for secondary school etc, but don't begrudge them a penny, their happiness is a joy to see!

    Just had a sunny weekend at Pontins (lots of ice cream needed to keep us going in the heat!) DS has today gone off on an overnight hike/camp on Dartmoor in a select group of year 6s plus head/deputy head teachers; hope he doesn't keel over from heat exhaustion :(

    Only two weeks until the end of term, then a collective sigh of relief :rotfl: They'll all be chilling while I have to go to work, so that bit's not so good, but only four weeks to our family holiday, yay :)

    Stay well and happy sunny potting!

    $7.30 potted today, found out that DP was holding out $6.10 from me! :rotfl:

    congrats Nell! I bet its a big relief for you!

    I did the grocery shopping last night for the possible 2 weeks that I'll be away for, using up all the old stores saved us about $60 on groceries and the bill came to $97 instead of around $160 ish (I did buy a few non grocery items though, like a long lighter)
