Weekly Flylady Thread 11 Jan 2016

I seem to have lost the gist of the thread this week - hugs to all who need them.

Valli - glad you survived your camera investigation.

Mumof2 I was thinking of you this morning. Pigpen may have a good idea when it comes to posting some pictures online and getting independent opinions.

Well I grasped the nettle this morning and rang the hospital this morning. The coordinator has worked miracles and switched my Oncology appointment to Monday morning and brought my camera appointment forward to Monday afternoon....

The MacMillan nurse rang an hour ago and gave some good advice. She offered some good advice.

Pleased with the result really.

And Ed 'Stewpot' Stewart, the DJ many of us of a certain age grew up with died last week after a stroke.

My record so far is assessing 3 siblings in one family, not all at once I add! Have also assessed a mother and daughter, ditto.

!!!!!! I have not a penny to scrat my behind with and the cat has a flare up of her granuloma and has ripped her fur out and has a massive weeping sore on her back.. why could she not wait a few weeks until we have life and money back on track?? I might cook her for dinner tomorrow if she carries on! Vet isn't even open until Monday.. perfect timing cat!

I saw that death too narco.. crazy isn't it!!? And Celine Dions hubby.

Squeak is in trouble again.. goodness knows what has got into her but she has been awful the last few weeks.

I need to order Senile cats meds too.. repeat script again, he doesn't go back until April.

Hadn't heard grizzly Adams had passed, I loved him when I was younger.

CY glad you are as OK as you can be
Valli, glad your procedure went as well as it could
Mumof2 glad you have been referred for the counciling
Hugs to everyone else who needs one.

Pigpen not sure if it will help but my cat used to stress lick and made his chest redraw at times when we first got him, the vet told me to gently rub a little softened butter in the area, cats don't like the texture on their tongue so won't lick it again apparently (it worked but now thinking about it mum always used to rub the cats laws with butter when we moved house as she said they found their bearings by the time they licked it off)
When my cat had figts with foxes or other cats and came in battered I used to use salon wound wash spray on him, and that always cleared the wounds up.

Going to do some swing up and knitting now. Night all.

We made it to South Wales and back again safely, and in lovely weather - apart from everything here being frozen when we left home at 7.00 and then a little bit of snow in the Llynfi Valley. I drove all the way there and back again as far as Ross on Wye; DH drove after sunset (which I find difficult) while I caught up with the thread on his iPad (but couldn't post at the time because I can never remember my password). As a result, we managed not to bite each other's heads off.

The only flying I can claim to have done today is a quick S&S of the kitchen, and cooking tea.

Pigpen and Frizzle, I burst out laughing when I read your exchange of posts, and had to explain to DH what I was gigging about :rotfl:

See you all tomorrow x

My Christmas day personal (as opposed to all the fun I have when I am with the kids and family) pleasure, the last few years, has been listening to Junior Choice and all the records I loved as a kid, like My brother, and Sparky and Morning Town Ride, and, of course The Laughing Gnome and hello Mudda hello Fadda...

Valli I have watched DS go through an colonoscopy. I cant imagine anything worse. Hope you are feeling OK.

Was just a bowel scope survey - lucky me - they invent it and I am exactly the right age...:o
