Thanks AllAlone Grin

PeaceOfWildThings · 05/02/2015 14:44

Iklboo! That is great, keep going! :) I am on about square ...6...of ours.

i have the twin house of fabric and yarn and chaos!
nice to know I'm not alone.

It's keeping me sane. DH has ideas of delicately crocheted lace adornments to house. Product so far likely to be rejected by a homeless dog. Ah well. I like it Smile.

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 06/02/2015 19:04

Thanks all for good wishes Flowers

I hope all you lurgy ridden people are recovering if it's not all a distant memory.

I love knitting but crochet to me is like Russian.

Zombie darling, I hope all your appointments are running smoothly this week, and have been helpful. FX you can make your 2nd London meet-up Grin

IamtheZombie · 07/02/2015 01:48

Evening (morning!) my lovely ones.

Zombie is alive and shuffling along. ZombieLad is also fine. He is such an amazing man. I am very, very proud of him.

I keep promising myself that I will start knitting / crocheting. It hasn't happened yet.

This week's appointments went well. MRI on Monday and appointment with my wonderful surgeon on Friday next week. Oncologist appointment is on the 27th.

Otherwise life goes on.

'Ello Zombie! Very glad to hear you are doing okay. Happy ZombieLad is well & the appointments have been good. Cold snap is back so keep wrapped up & warm. I have a day of rugby & crochet squares to keep me entertained. I'm teaching Mr Ikl the pesky rules of the Art of The Odd Shaped Ball as we go along. DS plays U9s so it'll be handy for Mr to understand what's going on when we get to bigger boys' games.

Hope all goes splendidly for you over the next few appointments. Stay well & warm WineThanks

I too now have some lurgy or other and at this present time am still in bed ! Zombie glad you are getting on ok and hope your medication is hoping to lift your spirits, I'm sure that the strong courageous Zombie we have all grown to care for is lurking about somewhere and will soon be back

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 07/02/2015 18:06

Sorry to hear you've joined the lurgied lin, get well soon Flowers

Good wishes for appts. next week Zombie

Love to all Team DBF and keep at it hookers Grin

ZingTheGreat · 08/02/2015 10:22

Zombie

i always that in the light of what you are going through it's unfair for me to whine about colds and stuff but I'm fucking fed up of it!
DS1 & DS4 has tonsillitis, DS3 has a badly infected toe, the other 4 has streaming colds and coughs....I'm one step away from putting a big H on the front door.
(I should do. and charge for parking outside our house Grin )

glad you're ok and hope the treatment is working. I think of you a lot.

BabyZing is on the move and started to become a danger to himself so I have to keep stopping my sewing or crocheting to rescue him. It's tiresome Wink

ZingTheGreat · 08/02/2015 10:23

*I always think

IamtheZombie · 08/02/2015 16:34

Afternoon all.

Hope those with the lurgy are starting to feel better. I can send virtual hot toddies if that would help.

I think the increased dose of Sertraline is helping a lot. I take my last Zopiclone tonight. It's certainly greatly improved the quality of my sleep. Now I just need to reset my body clock so I'm in bed before 3 or 4...

Sorry to hear about all the lurgified people.

Can you re set body clock by doing it by half hour increments, Zombie?

ZingTheGreat · 08/02/2015 23:32

glad your new meds are helping and really hope your sleep improves soon.
As a self-certified insomniac I'm afraid I have no useful advice on how to sleep better/longer/earlier.Smile
I'm watching Great British Sewing Bee on catch up tv.

YeGodsAndLittleFishes · 08/02/2015 23:39

Glad that this week's appointments went well, Zombie.

Hope there lurgies take a running jump down the revine and take the last of my cough with them.

DD has been trying different things to help with sleep.and has hit on having a sleep late afternoon/evening, then getting up fir a few hours in the night for dinner and some work without distractions, then sleeping again until about 6:30. Seems to be working well for her.

Allalonenow · 09/02/2015 00:51

I hope all the lurgy sufferers are starting to improve by now, get yourselves on medicinal hot whiskey four hourly and that should see you right.

B3 hope your DD is recovering well.

If you can see the video of the quiche at the side here >>>>>>

I made this at lunchtime, but it didn't really turn out like the video.
Mine sort of clambered out of the mug and ooozzzed all over the microwave, like a Quatermas Quiche, I think it was smiling malevolently at me....

Hope your sleep improves soon Zombie. I've been in the 'reading a kindle at 3am' zone myself sometimes. Fingers crossed you can reset your clock so you can get fully rested & refreshed.

Lurgy update is possible Menieres. ENT referral & new meds. Another fortnight off work. DS's blanket will be finished in no time now!

I am enjoying Father Brown though........Blush

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 10/02/2015 00:15

Flowers allalone ( your name still bothers me xxx) she is recovering very well, with massive gossip infusion from her godmother who arrived today Grin

They are both a bit sceptical about MN and I have been drunkenly describing some of the threads that I read and post on.
They were gobsmacked at my description of you Zombie, quite tearful actually.
It just made me wonder, actually, how far the ripples spread.

mummylin2495 · 12/02/2015 11:47

Hi all, especially Zombie. Hope everyone with viruses are improving.
Zombie I am glad to see that your meds are beginning to help you improve.
BBB did you tell the team name ? They must be impressed by that Grin

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 12/02/2015 18:22

No, I didn't reveal the team name, I like to maintain a slight aura of mystery Grin
And I can't claim credit for it anyway, that was our Zombie's Flowers

mummylin2495 · 12/02/2015 22:17

Grin are we in a secret society now then. That's even more exciting. Are we suppose to have a special sign denoting our allegiance to damnbuggerfuck team ?

magimedi · 12/02/2015 23:16

ooooh - will have to think of secret sign now.
