Cheers for the thread Tea Hope your post op pain is fading fast

Wolf I'll check my diary for 18/11 Oh the holiday, I was refering to the town, not the hotel itself which was fine and dandy.

Ruby Awful re the holiday

Hello to EHM and Wendy and starbear and simply and luda and, ooooh, *Everybody else

I'm approaching things more steadily and starting to feel a lot better for it. I'm a lot more relaxed too which makes a nice change I've done all my rotines and I'm finally getting ontop of the washing cycles (at last)

Batboy is flaking out on the sofa. Beavers was canceled tonight and I think he needs an early night

Love to all

Good evening everyone. Ooops. I seem to need to re-type everything! Obviously a (small) glass and a half of red wine ruins my touch typing ability!

Ruby Sorry to hear about the difficulties with the holiday booking.

Tea I hope your afternoon and evening (so far) has been pain free or as close as poss.

Done list:-
~ cleared the ironing pile
~ watched about 4 How Clean...? K and A programmes whilst ironing
~ did the recycling
~ swept up leaves from a neighbour's driveway and added them to my composter
~ did some paperwork
~ bought a new shredder. I'm going to be really good with this one and not jam it up!
~ did food shopping
~ posted b/d card to ex-neighbour

All I need to do tonight is to walk the dog around the village so I think I'll put the d/w on and then do that. I don't think it is pouring with rain atm. When Luda gets fed up with the rain, she sends it to me, don't you know! I wonder how far apart we live as the crow flies, Luda. Perhaps I should get the atlas and work it out! It is about 40 mins by car, I guess.

Off to clear the table of tea things. See you tomorrow!

Ruby holiday nightmare. Sorry to hear it is getting worse!
mad We got DS a camera - he loves it, one of those VTech ones, a new model with a good spec; and a new Leapster as DD is always pinching his. DD 'bought' him a brilliant remote control motorbike which he loves too!
Had a good day, busy in the house. Picked DS up, both sets of grandparents came, and SIL, then DH came home and we sang and had cake. Party is Saturday (which I keep going on about! LOL)
Peter Beardlsey sounds lovely, Scatty
DH went to see the family friend in the cancer hospice yesterday, he is still on a downer. In a strange way it has put me on an upper (not a word, but it seemed appropriate!) instead. She is deteriorating fast apparently.
Today I also spoke to my friend who lost the baby last week. She is a wreck as you would think. So I am feeling thankful for my lot in life.
See you all later.

OOps
sounds like a lively day for you!

Am due to have flu jab this week - do you know if I can have it at the same time as having chest infection?

Have requested yet another change of dates from company. I dread what cost they might come back with this time. It seems they just double any quote 10 minutes after they offer it.

I will never book another holiday again. Back to camping for us

Ruby what a nightmare!
Hi galen - sock puppets sound nice .
luda - I love a cat (Dh allergic) still I have dd who also climbs on my lap the second my bum hits the seat .
Happy birthday Wendy DS . 5 def easier than 4 IMHO.
Hi Tea, glad you're feeling better.

Busy day. Peter Beardsley came into work (to visit a patient on the ward who used to be a footballer), he was lovely and spent ages chatting to all the patients and having photos with them etc. What a nice man.
Then i had a swine flu jab in 1 arm and normal flu jab in the other!
DD had a school trip.
Took dd to GP for MMR booster but nurse off sick so rearranged.
Friend took ds to beavers bowling night. I have just picked him up.

Need to wash up/make sandwiches/find uniforms.

BB tomorrow.

Hi all
am thinking very positive and healing vibes to you monster. You are fully entitled to be needy and you get every bit of this weeks sympathy quota.

The holiday saga goes from bad to worse. We decided to swallow extra £700 to make change - they are now quoting an extra £1300 . On a holiday that cost £1500 total. As I said it was our error that got the wrong dates, but I can only think they are now profiteering..

Looks like I'll be coming home early, I just hope DH can manage without me. Not that he is useless, but I would not want to be on hols without him either.

I cannot work out if I am being selfish or selfless. Even if we cancel whole thing, we lose £700. I bitterly regret booking the damn thing.

Happy Birthday to DS Wendy Hopefully he will grow out of his testoterone stage!!

What did you get him??

Awww 5 is a great age

Take it easy Mad [hugs]
