What small DFW things will you do w/c 25th Feb?

DawnW

Afternoon all
Nice to see La E back with us again, and congrats on the bump :heart2:
BB, I hope your husband is well and back home again soon
HK, am I right in assuming that the treatment is now being funded? I do hope so, and that you very soon feel the benefit.
CLF, condolences on the loss of your friend / acquaintance.

Went to hospital for my tests yesterday, now got to wait for the results, it may be something serious that needs surgery and perhaps other treatment too, or it may just be a nuisance. I am assuming the latter unless informed otherwise!
Looked after baby GS this morning for an hour or so, took him for a long walk as lifting / carrying him about, which is the alternative, is not allowed atm. I hoped he would doze off in his pushchair but he didn't, despite making the going to sleep type noises all the way round! He has a nasty cough and cold again, poor little mite.
Before he arrived I made a large batch of stilton and walnut scones, to use up walnuts left over from Christmas (I had cracked and frozen them). Some of the scones are now in the freezer. Took out a few blueberry muffins while I was at it, and am now enjoying one with a cup of camomile tea :)
2 loads of washing done, and one is already dried, folded and put away in the airing cupboard. Quite a few items in the second load will need ironing unfortunately :eek:
Spent most of the afternoon sorting out my seed tin, sowing some broad beans, land cress, and using up out of date pea seeds for pea shoots. Watered everything that needed it - it is so dry everywhere, not how it should be in February, which my grandfather used to call 'fill dyke' month, meaning it was expected to rain a lot and fill the ditches on the farm. Sad to hear of the moorland fires further North
OH cooked a ham hock this morning, so we will have some of that with baked potatoes and salad for dinner

Fingers crossed! Not sure what you are being tested for, but my mil had some funny symptoms a couple of years ago. Initial concerns were ovarian cancer, but it actually turned out to be a very large benign ovarian cyst. It did require a major op but everything afterwards was simple and just recovery. Hopefully yours will be something even simpler xx

Fingers crossed for good test results Dawn, and BB I really hope your hubby is on the mend soon.
Nothing to report today - another busy day and a nsd as I have literally no money left at all. Thankfully it's payday tomorrow, so I'll have money in the bank for about 3 days before I'm skint again.

Ziggy Thank you for keeping an eye on last weeks thread, welcoming new posters and redirecting them to the current thread :A

PurpleFairy Thank you. I did manage to get some sleep, It took me awhile to get to sleep and then I've woken early but at least there was a block of sleep in the middle, which generally works better for me than having my sleep broken into smaller sessions.

Deni looks like both you and the volunteer are doing well off the exchange

Dd brought me breakfast in bed this morning :T porridge and a pot of tea. Great opportunity to spend a bit of time together.

OH has been discharged and is now home :j

My parents stepped up and took over the house and children again. I am very grateful for this and allowing me to devote most of my energies to OH.

Fingers crossed for good results Dawn.

Bb, glad to hear that your dh is home again

Evening all,

I have been busy getting better /running around constantly as oh is decorating dds bedroom (i hate the mess) so weve had an expensive fee days the new bed will be here next week...i got moaned at because i should have ordered it yesterday that was until we realised it had been reduced by a further £60 today so i am one very pleased lady!! And obviously it was all part of my plan :rotfl:

Anyway bb hope your oh gets better soon!! Along with everyone else
Carrie your comment earlier in the week made me smile i actually asked my friend once coz she didnt feel well and she was adamant she wasnt 1 week later she found out....3 years later i am still blamed for that baby not her and her husband its my fault :eek: :rotfl: although every so often i ask her just for the fun of it now :rotfl:

Ally glad your feel a lot better i think the sunshine helps my oh suffers with depression and anxiety but he can manage a bit easier in the summer i think its because we can go outdoors and just have some fun the 3 of us!!

Foxgloves i think its a lovely idea to do a garden for your mom so sweet and kind!! 💗💖

I joined sw last night and i was shocked at how much weight i put on so spent £18 on my way back on healthy alternatives and tbh we had nothing in,had a nsd today but need to order shopping online so after a bath i will quickly make my list!!
Have spoke to oh about going on holiday with his parents next year to isle of wight he has family there and its a big birthday for his dad so i was thinking maybe as his birthday present but i will get some prices and see.

Not much going on except decorating and work....i need my house back!!

Take care everyone xx
