Teases Stan with MY Geoffrey  ..........  sadly he's already spoken for

[bitsnknots]

Evening all.  Loves the picture of the cake, Imogen and the giraffe.  

[bitsnknots]

Just had an email from one of my cousins in South Wales telling me how is mum is.   Apparently, she has myeloma, stomach cancer and throat cancer.  She has to have an MRI scan next week and more tests done so they can decide what treatment but I don't hold out much hope unfortunately.

[captainbovine]

oh that's bad news Chris, I'm sorry, .....

[captainbovine]

I don't know what it is about that picture of Imogen, but I find it a bit sad......

I think we are all going to miss her CK

[bitsnknots]

Thanks CB.  We'll know more next week.  They will decide what treatment if any once they have done the MRI and yet more blood tests.  It's a worry and it doesn't help with them being so far away.

[bitsnknots]

Just emailed one of my other cousins from South Wales to ask her how here dad was coping.  He's as nutty as a fruit cake and he keeps texting my auntie to tell her how ill he feels.  He's so selfish it's unbelievable.

morning all

((((((((((((( BOOKS )))))))))

Awww v.cute geoffrey CK but think Imogen needs him at the mo to keep her company in that pic (she looks all lonely in a big empty room)

[ginap.123]

Hoping Stroppy is either feeling better this morning or safely ensconsed in a hospital ward at least getting some treatment.

After yesterdays morning spent at the Bubble Bus we're off today for a grown-up retail therapy day to try & buy some holiday clothes whilst the shops still have some in stock & then lunch out then back to watch the Tottenham/Arsenal game.

Have a nice day everyone & good luck to all the MDCCers

Stroppy is indeed feeling better this morning, temp is lower, coughing less, and I managed to eat some breakfast.

Half the problem is the side effects from the multiple anti-biotics.

At least at home when I fall asleep I am left to sleep, not woken up every half hour or so, so I get some rest. Sleep is often the best medicine.

[stan3502]

** creeps in and whispers in case stroppy's sleeping **

Glad your feeling better xxxx

**Tiptoes out again >>>>>>>>>>>>

[****merlin*****]

Gooooooooooooood morning ladies 

glad you are feeling a bit better stroppy

great believer that  sleep is helping/healing

which is a bit ironic since when you are asleep in hospital they wake you up for something or other all the time!

loving the picture of Imogen

couldnt you sit her little chair thingy onto a roomba?

she would have great fun and teh floor would always be clean

[****merlin*****]

she isnt sleeping now i've breezed in Mrs Stan

you werent there when i posted!!

morning to you

tis blowing a gale outside, i am still upstairs (read that as having coffee in bed!)

wonder if its worse because of the tree tops?

if its like that all over, i'm shutting the blinds

[stan3502]

Morning merlin

Dull and grey here but as still as can be , must go and find my get up and go as really should be gardening but like you am sitting reading the "sundays" with a coffee

[****merlin*****]

gardening?

i think thats a naughty word on a sunday!

nothing grew this year apart from herbs

not even rasps 

[petitecalicocat]

Morning 🙂

Busy busy here getting MIL sorted for carers & her shopping  while we are away  .

Still not packed anything yet must do it today , only two  more sleeps left now 

[ilove2patch]

We have southern sunshine  and it's very nice. Having a very lazy day. Not dressed yet.

[stroppy*cow]

I have absolutely NO intention of wasting energy getting dressed. I had a quick shower whilst "himself" put clean bedding on, and I am now back in bed. I'm sorting through all my craft stuff, trying to make sure that I have all the materials that I need BEFORE I start on a Christmas Card order. I usually get half way through and then discover that I haven't got enough of something.
