    News from me -

    Wedding party was a huge success :j

    Hangover proper gone :j

    I've got two of the most painful afflictions on one foot - plantar fasciitis is confirmed, and I've got arthritis of my big toe :eek: :eek: I went in to see the consultant with two foot probs and came out with three :rotfl:

    I managed to slice my index finger open yesterday - not good given what happened last time :eek:

    Work is going really well, I feel really settled there and they seem to be pleased with my efforts :)

    I'm going to be auntie to a beastie baby in around eight weeks - the brother and wife who I don't like very much




    Fun and games in my life, I tell you :rotfl:

    Morning All,

    QOC, i used to to suffer from PF and like you say, it's very painful. I started buying Hotter shoes and now it's cleared up completely.:):)

    They're not cheap but you can't put a price on pain free feet. I can't help with the arthritis so not quite pain free :o

    HTH,
    SnS

    mhoc I don't catch up properly these days. I just skip through but I caught your post about what I'm going to do when I'm in isolation.

    I'm allowed some gadgets so I'll be able to keep in touch with the outside world. I have to say I've very much avoided the Internet during the day for a long time now. it's very easy to get 'stuck' online in absence of being able to go about your usual business. I don't really want to do that. It very much feels like wasted time to me at the moment. I do what I'm doing now and have a cheeky look in once everyone is settled for the night and I'm in that place that feels a bit lonely where I face my thoughts for the day.

    I've no doubt I will be bored, frustrated and prone to a tantrum or 2. I can live without my OH for months and have done often. Not sure how I'll do with such a long stint without my kids :o it's for their benefit in the long run and that will hopefully be at the forefront of my mind.

    Things ill do......I have a 'wedding' to plan. I will say this is very much OH idea and not something I feel a need for but I get it so it's fair enough. I've already made a start on it. I have also joined another forum recently that has nothing to do with shopping or money saving that I enjoy. It's a bit special interest but suits me fine because there are also like minded people there albeit on a different subject.

    I'm still writing too. I've had an article (my 3rd :D) published in a magazine that goes to parents of autistic children. I have also had an article published in an ex-service charities publication that I'm rather proud of.

    I won't be taking up knitting or crocheting :p

    my nails are already fine but could be better and I'm determined not to spend the time reading books....I can do that any time.

    I'm soooooo looking forward to meeting you. I have a proper mental pic in my head of what you look like! I bet you will be nothing like it :D

    Sorry for yakking on :o

    If the picture in your head is blonde, glamorous and six foot then stick with it :rotfl:
