I’m sorry I haven’t been here recently, apart from just doing the new daily list for you all then running..lol

I know I can tell you all on here – it’s not on my Facebook as I don’t want family to know.

Unfortunately I’m being investigated for gynaecological cancer 🙁 Yesterday I had bloods taken, a couple of procedures done and a biopsy of my cervix taken at hospital to go away for testing for cancer. I was a complete wreck as you can imagine especially as Dave wasn’t allowed to be with me even though he’s registered as my carer due to my mental health. I was told when I checked with the hospital that he could be with me but it was a totally different story when you get there. The NHS are still doing the main Covid redtrictions that were in place at the beginning. So as you can imagine this didn’t help me at all.. I had a major panic attack which took a while to come down from..and if I’m honest has left me feeling like !!!!!! still.

I’ve been trying to get my head round all this over the past week or so especially as I wasn’t expecting this to happen when I contacted my Dr. And so quickly too.

So now it’s a waiting game to hear from them and, depending on the results, where we go from there.

My moods have been all over the place as you can imagine, and it didn’t dawn on Dave what was being done and what for when we got there and they turned him away to wait with the other relatives. And I then told him afterwards...

I had to let it all out somewhere and, only one other person knows, I wanted to let you all know in here as you’ve been like a family to me over the years we’ve all been on here together.

I’m now off to have a second cup of tea and enjoy the peace and quiet while the rest of the house is still asleep.

Hugs and spoons to everyone ❤️😘

Morning all xx 

(((Hugs))) Natty xx I hope and pray that everything comes back clear. I know from personal experience how it feels to have to wait for the results to come through. We're all here for you ❤

Love to all

Natty, hugs and my thoughts, my pm box is there, having been there and done all this last year with OH, I know how you feel. xxx

Blowing a real hoolie here today expected gusts of 50 to 55 mph, local Nation Trust properties have closed,  their houses and woods, there is a warning from who ever to keep out of woods etc, last time about 400 trees in this area came down, I think my walking today will be around the local town, as I think the promenade will be too blustery for me, I sort of walk at a 45 degree angle to the ground!  (total miles so far 29)

Wm done out on line double pegged down.

To do

Money shuffle

Work out what to do with this pheasant cat 1 caught.

Safe  day all x

Natty68

Kaz I'd bury it as you aren't sure what it's got etc... But don't let the cat see..😉

Thank you so much for those kind words Round and Kaz, they mean a lot to me at this time ❤️

Oh and Kaz I'm going through DH still having chemo here so it could be interesting if I end up with it too.. 😉

Hugs Natty, and don't forget we are here to listen to you.  I personally think it's good to let off and talk about stuff, even to a bunch of imaginary friends.  

Pouring with rain here and I've just spent an hour outside having my drains checked, a requirement for the sale of the house.  I now have cold wet feet so pellet stove has gone back on and I've taken my socks off, will get another pair when I go upstairs.  But drains all ok.

Kaz, when my cats catch stuff there's not usually too much left so I'm afraid it gets double bagged and put in the general bin.  

Bed made, clothes picked up, room aired
DW sorted & on, WULTD, kitchen wiped down
Lounge tidied
WM on
Banking & spending checked

Plans for today include cooking a sausage casserole, taking keys to lady who's going to feed the cats next week and ironing.  

Big hugs and keep SMILING

(((Hugs))) Natty.  I'm sorry you had to go through the tests on your own but I'm glad you have Dave at home with you.

The pheasant has been hung for 3  days, in the garage, it feels a bit scrawny,  it was still warm when I found the cat with it, and I know it was alive a few hours earlier as I saw it, it had distinctive tail feathers. I think bag it and bin may be the way, I don't want to bury it, as the fox is around, (I'm sure there are cubs as well) and it will did it up.

Natty,   if you and OH both end up on chemo, make sure you ask for help from Macmillan and the likes of, cleaning, cooking, shopping etc. Can I suggest you re think not telling your family, my OH wasn't going to tell his family, I made him, then I set a whatapp group up so they contacted me and not him, I do understand it is a bit different for you both, but you have all our love and thoughts, if there is any thing we can do from afar, ask , ask, ask.

Money shuffle done

Off to rescue a towel which is flying around the garden, having come off the line

Oh Natty I am so sad to read this. I have no words - we are here for you my lovely xx

Kaz - there isn’t much on them. I would personally breast it then bin the rest. I’ve roasted them whole before but really not much meat to be had other than the breast. Look online for videos showing how to breast them - super easy, just use a very sharp knife. Yummy xx

Kaz.... I'd yeet it into the fields to feed the foxes.. we all have to eat.

Natty.. I'm not surprised you are in a tizz.. I think most people would be.. you know we are right here whenever you need us xxx Sending much love and hoping there is no nasty business going on..

2 nails fixed..

WM's both on

fish tank emptied and cleaned and flung in the shed, but I might marketplace it.. it's a waste it just sat gathering dust.

My house is a bear pit and I have so much to do and no time or energy or, if I am honest, the will to waste my time doing any of it.. it is simply exhausting just thinking about it.

This weather is broken.. swinging from rain to sun in seconds.. and this is not going to dry my washing!

I need to check swimming and dance stuff is sorted for Saturday and pack an overnight bag for everyone.. I might just do the Trunki's for them tbh.. I think we have 4 but one is the first aid kit.. so 3 and I'm sure the 4th can fit her stuff in the others.. 1 set of clothes and a set of pjs.. it should all fit in one if I was any good at being a minimalist.. which I am not!!

Cuppa and maybe the packing and then torutre of a school run with the easter fair AND the book club.. *sigh*
