How is everyone this evening?

KK your polenta thing sounds fab, love polenta, how do you season it? My polenta always ends up very bland, it's such a soothing texture though, love it just with cheese. Also loooove chocolate angel delight here.

gracie sounds like the perfect kinda accident!

MAS hope the ibu gel helps. I've found cocoa butter helps mine but sounds like you've already tried lots of similar things.

Enjoy your lovely sounding dinners everyone :)

Pass me a twix ! I love Kylies advice too :)
Am I allowed to be a bit twee ? I do like all this women helping women I've experienced this week. All of you have made such a difference to me as has a lovely lady I work with who's been through it. I hope to come through this nightmare myself and be able to help someone else x

malteserzz · 03/05/2013 19:08

Dd2 went out for tea! Should have remembered as gave her the £ this morning. So accidentally dragged dh to pub for tea :) and beer! Wine Now need to walk the long way home as way over on calories Grin

HerNextDoorAt21 · 03/05/2013 19:16

Oh I read that article just now .... That's me then ..... I do drink over 7 glasses of wine a week and I dared to have two boys when I was 37 and 43 respectively. ...... How dare I have a failed marriage and not find a decent person to love me and father my children until later life !!!!!! What a pile of old crAp (drinks second glass of wine of the day waiting for topsy to come round for pub night !!!! Chicken wings, pitta crisps with taramasalata and humus and olives and pepperdew peppers for supper ! We know how to live in this street !

I had an interesting time today. Delivered cupcakes to DH's ward colleagues, outpatients and the scroll fund raiser people then got to hospital and they removed my dressings and drains then realised that pharmacy had no drains to replace the ones they had taken out !!!! Cue panic and searching the whole of Belfast hospitals for drains to no avail. I had some drains at home so the tissue viability nurse had to patch me up with gauze and follow me home in a taxi (not insured to be passenger in parents' car !!!!!) and do the dressings at home ...... Just call me LUCKY !!!! A there any other complications that have not been thou of in my case ?

KurriKurri · 03/05/2013 19:16

You are allowed to be as twee as you like malteserz, that is a lovely thing to say, and I definitely agree, women do pull together and support each other - and when you are first DX it does feel very lonely, as if you are the only one out there, -but you're not, we're all here for hand holding and cake (mostly cake, or twixes in gracies case)Grin

jchocchip · 03/05/2013 19:16

Obese alcoholic? Me? Grin

HerNextDoorAt21 · 03/05/2013 19:19

Sorry for posting barrage ... On iPad and cannot scroll.

gigs and malt hope you both get better nits sleep but glad you were there for ac other last night. I still wake every time I move in bed as can only sleep on one side and have nerve damage to leg after surgery (11 inch back scar may have something to do with it) so I get very achy sleeping on left side on the dead leg !

KurriKurri · 03/05/2013 19:19

Blimey HND, that must have been a bit hairy, you must surely have had every kind of dressing emergency now! Grin

HerNextDoorAt21 · 03/05/2013 19:22

Whoops topsy might have slipped and fallen in tesco and bout more pub snacks ! Hurry up, fellow fat alky next door waiting for you !!!!!

KurriKurri · 03/05/2013 19:23

I have a terrible rock and roll lifestyle dilemma, - should I spend my evening knitting, make a start on my jigsaw puzzle (cats in a conservatory) or go completely mad and break open my crossword magazine. Oh the agony of choice Grin

HerNextDoorAt21 · 03/05/2013 19:24

KK I am sure there are more dilemmas and complications that can come my way !!!! Daren't even think about the breast reduction on the other side next year !

topsyturner · 03/05/2013 19:38

Btw , HND has terrible trouble with typos !!!
I shall try to remember some of her more memorable ones ...

Just waiting for DH to come back from walking pig/dog then I'll be round HND

topsyturner · 03/05/2013 19:39
