Previous thread is HERE

Five years on from my first treatment, the options have pretty much run out.

Please join us for the rest of the journey. Doom and gloom is absolutely banned. There are still laughs and love to share and celebrate.

somer I've just realised I was reading a thread of yours not long ago about DPs friend...she sounded a bit unhinged to be honest. Have you sorted that out?

Weddings are exciting. Grin

Somerville · 03/12/2016 12:31

I posted on page 1 of your very first thread suggesting that you 'go for it'.

Why thank you. Flowers I'm very glad I took your advice!

And HerRoyal yes, DP dealt with it and she's no longer attending. Smile

HerRoyalFattyness · 03/12/2016 12:37

Phew! Grin I'm glad it's sorted.

PacificDogwod · 03/12/2016 12:37

Peacocks are dim and evil, the psychopaths of the bird world IMO

I'm sure Zombie will have thought about how to get all her limbs back home - those bags for life fold up small and when needed can hold a lot Grin

Oh, Somer, I may have come across one of your threads as well (I rubbish at remembering posters names, sorry) - v touching.

BellMcEnd · 03/12/2016 12:38

Oh I wish I'd seen this thread earlier! I'm near the Sutton Marsden, I could have offered you help with transport, Zombie. It's a great hospital, I've had a lot to do with it over the past year.

I hope you're not too exhausted, Zombie

OhTheRoses · 03/12/2016 13:35

I think I remember the dating thread too. Settled down in the Pitt Rivers Museum now. DD's just having a sarnie and meeting ds at 5 to take a mountain of dirty washing and heavy things home.

IamtheZombie · 03/12/2016 15:20

I'm safely home but utterly exhausted.

I have a lot of paperwork to read (and re-read); a lot of hard thinking to do; then finally I have some extremely difficult decisions to make.

That's all I'm willing to give as an update at this point. Please just bear with me and don't push me for any more information until I am willing to share it.

Thanks and love to you all.

Flowers for you Zombie

Somerville · 03/12/2016 15:29

Glad you're home - and utter respect for you making your boundaries clear, Zombie.
Thinking of you. Flowers

iklboo · 03/12/2016 15:31

Glad you're home Zombie - everything here is at your pace & nothing more. Take all the time you want & need. I'm just happy you're home. Now go & rest and do what you need to do. We'll bustle along rambling talking about weddings, hats & gin till you're up to a natter.

PacificDogwod · 03/12/2016 15:40

Glad you're home, Zombie.
Feet up, cup of tea, do your homework in your own time.

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 03/12/2016 16:03

Ah, I just logged on to see your're home safe Z, you take your time sweetheart, no need to tell us anything unless you want to.

Glad to hear DH sorted out the troublemaker Somer, I too had a bit of a soppy moment reading your thread Smile
Have hat, ready at a very short notice!

Well, we are in our house!

We have half the lights, half the heating and no kitchen appliances and only a shower over the bath Grin

But we have wood burner and TV, new beds, and DD, son in law and DGS coming over to stay the night.
Better go and make the beds and find some lamps.

clincalissimo!

Fiderer · 03/12/2016 16:26

Good-oh that you're home & hope you can rest, Z.

Am resting also having had the onerous job of getting the C'mas decorations out of the storeroom. Being without a car these days I couldn't lug home a real tree on my bike so a couple of years ago bought online an artificial one for the 1st time. He's called "Stumpy" which is v festive. FidGirl's going to decorate him while I watch Strictly.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 03/12/2016 16:44

Zombie the use of ears (for listening), shoulders (for crying on), fingers (for crossing) or any other body parts is not mandatory at any time. But you know this.

DD1 wants to spend the day hanging out with a friend at the mall rather than coming shopping for stuff for the new house and going to a Christmas market with us. And so it begins. I am a bit emotional about it but I think I'm hiding it pretty well. I hope.

Fids do you actually get Strictly on TV there? We used to get BBC 1 and 2 when we lived in The Netherlands on regular TV, twas awesome. I miss Strictly but I'm sure I could find it on YouTube or something.

Fiderer · 03/12/2016 16:53

I have a basic satellite thingy.

Further details have been withheld to protect our agents in the field.

Know what you mean about your d. Am pleased FidGirl wants to decorate Stumpy and is not off at another sleepover. FidBoy1 has gone to Berlin with his gf who's moving there. Don't know when I'll see him again as he's between school/studies. FidBoy2's off to an Irish pub (v popular in Germany) with his friends tonight.

Soon it'll be just me and Stumpy Grin

Allalonenow · 03/12/2016 17:00

Glad that you got home safely Zombie . Hope you find some peace and calm over the next few days. Thanks

B3 How lovely that you have finally moved in, what a relief for you, all best wishes to you! Clincalissimo Wine Wine

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 03/12/2016 17:25

Yes congrats BBB! I hope you have a very happy time in your new house.

Fiderer · 03/12/2016 17:30

Aww, B3. This is your moving-in and bed-making outfit, I just know it.

Xmas Grin I like that satin sheet Ginger B3 is draped in!

HerRoyalFattyness · 03/12/2016 17:37

Glad you're home safe zombie

BBB yay!

Badders123 · 03/12/2016 17:40

Glad you are home safe zombie...you are absolutely right to only share what you are comfortable doing.
Hope you have a peaceful night x
Well, yet again, for the THIRD year running Dh has lost the Xmas tree lights.
What does he DO with them?
So he is cross because I've just ordered some on Amazon....tee hee

BigFatBollocks · 03/12/2016 17:41
