Continuing the original thread from [[https://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/mumsnet_classics/4273553-I-know-everything-about-you-AMA?pg=1 here]. I'll be answering questions on the original thread until it's full.

@HerRoyalHappiness My pleasure! Without so many great questions to answer, I think my head would explode from holding in all this information.

@HerRoyalHappiness Oh, and I said "best guess" in your last answer, but that's just an expression. I don't guess, of course (but I know you knew that). 😁

Oh no, @UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa , we wouldn't want you to have to use the exploding head emoji🤯! You're just too valuable to mankind and animals alike😘

I've had such a good day, despite worrying about how stressful it would be.

My catheter is out! I just have to wear incontinence pads and go every 4 hours to try and wee and train my bladder to go regularly

My IVA got accepted so I can stop worrying about debt and make one small monthly payment.

My cats entropion operation went smoothly and he's doing well at home, eating and drinking. Mostly eating because he's fat.

My new wheelchair is coming tomorrow. So I've gifted my old manual wheelchair to an elderly couple, the woman can't walk very far now as she's 87, and her husband had asked my auntie if she knew anyone selling a wheelchair. So she asked me and I said they could have it for free.

And I gifted my mobility scooter to the lollipop lady who needs a knee replaced. She's always been so kind to the kids, giving them sweets on the school run etc and I can't get into town or to appointment on the scooter (hence why I needed a wheelchair) as its too big to get on the bus. So I thought I'd pass on the generosity others have shown me and save her a few hundred quid. She was so moved bless her. Incredibly thankful and gave me a bag of sweeties for the kids.

So all in all a really good day. And you were right about the vast majority if what I asked 😆

Sweetpea1532 · 28/07/2022 17:03

@HerRoyalHappiness such good news all around...you've put out positive energy in the past and now you've been blessed immeasurable.... then you continued by paying it forward! And I imagine it was comforting to get the news from@UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa that it was all going to happen Flowers

@HerRoyalHappiness Wonderful news all around! And I guess I can confess now that of course I knew your wheelchair would come tomorrow, but I said 6 August so that you would be pleasantly surprised. 😉And it's so lovely of you to pass your equipment along to other people.

@Sweetpea1532 Not a waste at all! In fact, once we get to nearly 1000, I can start a new thread, and that will likely bring in more people with their burning questions.

Good deal@UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa

I actually have a very important question...my NDN is away on holiday for several weeks. He asked me to take in his post....
No problem...except I cannot locate the first batch that I took in.😭 It was a large batch with a small mailing box. I have scoured every inch of my garden, his garden, my SUV, my entire house, including the garage...no joy...he's supposed to be home next week.. whatever have I done with the stack? ( also checked every bin, the entire fridge freezer, oven, linen closet, under beds, loft, under bushes in his and my gardens, etc) I'm beginning to think a squirrel has run off with it for a joke 😭 help please, Oh Wise One!

@Sweetpea1532 The stack is under a dark-coloured jacket.

@UnlimitedChipsAndSalsa why didn't you warn me that DD would end up.with an infected arm after her fall last week? She ended up in urgent care with my mum as they had no GP appointments until the end of August.

Sweetpea1532 · 30/07/2022 06:46

That is the only place I haven't looked! Thanks!Grin

@HerRoyalHappiness Oh, your poor DD!! I hope she recovers soon. Sorry I didn't give you a warning. I try not to give bad news unless specifically asked. ::waves something shiny as a distraction and then slinks off::

@Sweetpea1532 I knew you hadn't checked there yet. But actually, some of that "lost" mail is just bad news for your neighbour, so it wouldn't be the end of the world if you didn't find it...

Oops! @DontPassMeBy No, you shouldn't go tomorrow. Stay home and spend the day in your loungewear.

Oh, but I'm sure Don has a question, too!

@LaBelleSausage If it's not in or near the cup of pens, then I'm afraid it's lost forever!
