Still reading from the sidelines, everyone. Wanted to say a few things - and will probably miss my main points as usual, as brain doing badly on steroids. Gig, you are in good company in terms of steroid effect as my DH (and ds4 agreed) complained today i was talking far too loudly (i know he was right - i could hear myself but couldn't stop it
).
Obviously i can't be let out in polite company, moods are swinging like blazes, and I feel mostly pretty crap. Dose going down slowly, but still on a fairly large amount. I hope the angioplasty - and of course the later 'main event'- go really well, gig, and I am so sorry you are going through this again.
I am off for a bath shortly and will try to read - struggling to focus on anything much at mo (have just cast on a/nother pair of gloves - you can never have too many pairs of gloves, esp
unfinished ones .....). The sun has shone on Scotland today, almost springlike. My brother,whose birthday it is, ws complaining of the cold. 'baltic with sun'. I told him weather is relative for us Scottish people.
I wanted to say I love Amber's very intelligent insightsto life with autism. As mother (and probably wife)of various people on spectrum, it helps me enormpously to understand what is going on, and of course support my lovely people.
I send best wishes too to Norfolk and Lillte Old Lady dog and her mistress.
Lastly, love and best wishes to all of you. i am reading, just not saying much these days - well, I am in RL(too much to say there. allegedly). I have my evening headache now. And I think keyboard is playing silly buggers. Tis hard ot tell the difference between 'steroid brain', fat finger syndrome, and keyboard playing silly buggers. IMO and great E of all three.
