here we are- how did that happen ?

Gigondas · 06/04/2012 10:17

Hot cross buns and some sickly chocolate easter cake dh ordered here.

If you feel a bit stronger Ned I would go. One of thing I find frustrating is being stuck at home and feeling like life is on hold. Although given that dh is off to ikea this morning , it's not always a bad thing.

Gracie - Am not on ads but do see and speak to a therapist a lot which is invaluable .

topsyturner · 06/04/2012 10:42

You are not a wimp ned !
Take whatever drugs you can for the sickness . I can cope with anything as long as I don't puke Grin

And if you are feeling up to it , I would definitely go out with DH tonight . Is it seated ? Just make sure you have an escape plan if you start to feel icky .

One great side effect of the anti sickness drugs I was on , was that they thoroughly killed any hangover I should have had Grin

NedSchneebly · 06/04/2012 10:49

It's a standing event, but DH phoned the venue and explained the situation, and they will put a chair at the side for me. We've booked a nice hotel room in town so we don't have to drive home after. There are 2 different bands playing and the first one is the one I really want to see, so have said to DH that I am happy to get a cab back to the hotel in the break. Will take it easy today and hope for the best!

KurriKurri · 06/04/2012 10:59

Morning all - why am I always the last person to get up? Grin

gracie - I hope you had a decent night's sleep and feel a little better this morning Smile

Ned - I'm glad you slept a bit better. Stop calling yourself a wimp for taking anti sickness you aren't. Smile
I would definitely go to te concert if you feel up to it, - I think the more things you can manage that you enjoy, the better you feel emotionally. Folk bands sounds great.

topsy - day 376 in the house of sick "topsy has been clearing up sick, the mini topsies have been puking. Mr topsy is wondering where he can hide" Grin
Hope they feel better soon and recover so they can have an Easter egg (otherwise mummy will have to eat them all Grin), thank goodness MrT is home and can help out.

jane - sitting on the paranoia box for you, it's common to get a lot of scar tissue around your wound site, which can feel very lumpy. Enjoy your chocolate and your break from work. Smile

MAS -Celeste sounds fine, vets are obsessed with weight, - my niece and her DH are both vets and their dogs look underweight to me Grin (am sure they aren't really but they get very measured amounts of food and are always asking for more!)

Gig - sorry France is on hold, but you are probably wise to postpone, - and you'll enjoy it all the more when you can go Smile

I have completely forgotten Hot Cross Buns, - never mind, DH has made some very nice cookies so I'll add some of those to the FBS trolley.

Hope everyone has a lovely break over Easter. I keep thinking of Smee - hope she is having a fab, time in NY. - Has anyone heard from Sometimes on FB? - I know she's got a load of work on, but haven't seen her for a while, - if she's on FB could someone pass on my love and wishes for a Happy Easter? xx

KurriKurri · 06/04/2012 11:01

x-posted - great that the venue have been helpful Ned, and you can have a sit down if you need it, Hotel room also = a very good idea, - have a great time.

topsyturner · 06/04/2012 11:04

Am heading out in a minute for the first time in a week !
And guess what exciting stuff I am going to do ?
Yup , you guessed it , am going to the butchers ...
Good job this butchers sells all sorts as DH has just informed me today is a meat free day .

topsyturner · 06/04/2012 11:06

Ned sounds like a good plan , go , enjoy , report back tomorrow Grin

kk I shall just say "lazy Trollope" Grin

Gigondas · 06/04/2012 12:46

Kk EnvyEnvy re getting up. Has your tummy calmed down?

Mind you i am half watching cycling whilst mini naps and dh/big at ikea.

Was iamseeingstars a poster on here? Thought had seen her but not an old
Hand. Just from another thread seems to be having a terrible time Sad

KurriKurri · 06/04/2012 12:52

My tummy seems to have gone the other way now Gig (TMI) -Confused - but maybe there's just nothing left in there (even more TMI)

Yes Iamseeingstars did post on here and still posts occasionally, - she has had an incredibly tough treatment programme Sad Will go and look up her thread.

Gigondas · 06/04/2012 12:54

Sympathy kk - mine is all over the place too.

Seems to be her treatment getting to her and making her depressed and lonely Sad.

Am most grateful for this thread as it has done loads to help me.

holstenlips · 06/04/2012 13:23

Hello hello all , its me (blushing) thanks for messages on my other thread (blush) x I'm doing good, feeling well, not got to go back to hosp for 3 months and back at work (apart from skiving off days) Happy long weekend,to all from me.

topsyturner · 06/04/2012 13:41

Thanks for pointing out stars post gig .
I have been over and posted , she seems in a really bad way Sad

Any other missing persons ?
Haven't heard from ILGC in a while.

Holsten we know you are ok Grin
Can you walk without bandy legs yet ?

Took DD to the butchers with me and I think I have broken her .
She has come straight home and climbed back into bed Sad

On a plus note , that means there are loads of butchers lamb and mint sausages in baps with tobacco onions to go on the fbs trolley Grin

jchocchip · 06/04/2012 14:03

Glad to hear you are full of the joys of spring, holsten :) Happy Easter!

Enjoy your night out, ned, you deserve it!

Mmm Lamb and mint sausages sound great Topsy. (meat free? lol) What's tobacco about the onions?

Hi gig, nap with mini sounds good.
kk thanks for sitting on the box for me. Hope your tummy feels better soon.

Dh is doing a turkey leg for lunch, with trimmings ... mmm. Cat has his eye on it. Sure our cat would be overweight if he wasn't so fussy. Spends a lot of time lazing around on cold days. Quite active when it is sunny though and has a turn of speed when scary cats are in the garden...

Waves to everyone. Enjoying this 4 day weekend :) Ice cream man here, but I really shouldn't spoil my dinner

jchocchip · 06/04/2012 14:12

mmmm kendalls whippy on the fbs trolley! dd2 wanted one so I ran. He used to come to our old house before dd2 was born so it was nice when we moved here last year and he remembered us! (maybe he remembered us because we were some of his best customers Blush the weight had to come from somewhere. scratches head.

amberlight · 06/04/2012 14:19

Gracie, triple positive? 96% success rate minimum on standard odds. It's very normal to feel very down...but the odds are hugely in your favour. Keep talking with us...have a Brew and a sit down...

Hi all. I'm going to see my onc again in about 3 weeks so we can see how I am by then and make a judgement on whether we go for herceptin again. Apart from that, getting loads done still and can't complain.

Hope you're all getting some chance to put your feet up over the Easter break...

topsyturner · 06/04/2012 14:32

Oh dammit jane !!!
DH and I had planned a trip to the chippy for tonight's tea , and then totally ruined it with the sausages !
Honestly if I had brains I'd be dangerous Grin

MaryAnnSingleton · 06/04/2012 14:38

see,I knew amber would have the figures- chin up gracie -you'll get through it.
Worried about poor stars - if you're reading this stars do join us - am sure we can support you xxxxx
kk sometimes isn't on fb very often, am sure she's still working like a mad thing. I'll try to remember to email her.
My boys have gone to the garden centre - hope they buy some lavender plants.
Hot cross buns on the trolley...
