    Set to go back next week but I'm a bit concerned that its not healing as quick as it should so I *might* do another week to make sure- 90% of my job is typing so I need to make absolutely sure I'm not going back too soon

    I'll see what happens come Thursday or Friday

    Well the last thing you need is for your job to hamper it healing. Very sensible :D

    No DD3 decided I had not had enough of hospitals and thought it would be a good idea to badly break her arm in the middle of her GCSEs. :(

    Was stuck in hospital with her 2 days, 2 hour operation to put it right now she will have trouble getting through airport security with 2 plates and screws in her arm. At least 8 weeks in a cast which will be put on next week once they are sure the wounds are healing ok.

    She did come out late last night but it was the first chance I got to lay down since thursday night. I could not sleep in those hospital chairs. :eek:

    Hey all,

    Been a gorgeous day here :D Productive morning tackling a few more of the 'to do list' jobs then had a fab afternoon at my besties for a BBQ :beer: Boys both suitably worn out from playing in the garden so hassle free bedtime and I've had an evening catching up with my feet up :)

    Loved the cake fernie, well done :T

    QoC, I went to a baby shower a couple of weeks ago for a close friend. The way I saw it was that the baby shower was for Mum, so I made a hamper which I called a 'mum to be/new mum survival kit'. I included pampering things to enjoy before baby arrived whilst she still has the time for a long bath (Sanctuary stuff from Boots sale and Bodyshop candle ;)) Then there were essentials for after the birth such as paracetamol, ibuprofen and maternity pads plus lavender oil (for in the bath for stitches), tissues (for the baby blues :eek:), eye cream (to help disguise the bags from lack of sleep), BS hand cream (as frequent hand washing had mine cracked within a fortnight) flapjacks (to help boost milk production), biscuits (for during night feeds) and chocolate (just because :D) I wrote instructions in her card and it went down really well. I meant to add a mini bottle of wine too but forgot :o
    In total I spent less than £15 including basket and cello/ribbon and so I can get the baby a little gift when she is born.

    wow it's quiet tonight.....:cool:

    That'll be because Savvy isn't here.:D

    Ah, I am here!:) But just popping in to say goodnight really. It's been quite a good day though, on the glitching front, at least I had some proper shopping day and not either closing at 4 or having to go straight into shopping the day after clocking off from work (i.e. normal Saturdays). See what you can do with a three-day weekend? Two decent days of sunshine and then managing to do two lots of shopping without all the inevitable rushing around last minute.

    I'm still here for a short while messing around with my lists - the M list is treated as expired now, although I'm updating it, I won't be changing the products on there so it is still expired now, just making it more suitable for me to use to start off when the next one is posted probably on Thursday/Fri night. So don't allow a 'last edited 27th May night' get you into thinking it's a new list. It isn't.

    Alright then, may the glitches continue, goodnight now!!:):D

    Oh my goodness!! I hope she's ok. How on earth did she manage to do that?

    Oh no TS, has she got any exams soon? Is it her dominant arm? Wishing her a speedy recovery x
