In shock

wesbister, we all understand your position,you have tried so hard so far thank you from all of us.
It is a week since her last post so if she is being looked after it is going to take at least that long to build her up again.
It just seems longer when she isn't popping on here each day.
How is your poor son ? That is a nasty op, Mum used to say teeth are trouble coming and going. x

liefie, sure when it feels so horrible it has got to be working lol.
My 85 year old friend is in South Africa for about six weeks hope she isn't too hot.x

Carla/Dalots  3-4 hr infusions !! you are awesome. Hope you both ok xx

Wow....two beauties snuggling on the couch! Edi, you and hubby look so cute, and you can see the love he has for you in his eyes. Pj's need no apologies.....most comfy things ever invented! Thanks for that photo.

2 loaves of bread doing their final rise, then it's bake time. Should be just about ready for the breakfast the Traii promised us! 

Dakota and Carla, you should be getting to the end of today's tx. Rock on ladies, but be gentle to yourself too. 

Websister....I totally get the reluctance to pursue info about Benny. You have to be very protective of your position. It is frustrating sometimes when the best of intentions can be turned around to look like something more sinister, but that is today's world. 

Figures, the weather finally warms up, and I'm stuck inside waiting for the bread to rise. Oh well, getting some laundry, etc. done. Hope to get out later, and am planning another snowshoe this weekend. Going to try to test the shoulders on something a little more challenging and might spot some moose, as it is in their favorite playground area. 

Edi, how are the "yucks" doing? Any better today????

Carlads make room in your pockets!

Its just after 6am here.. got up with hubby....told him im making you girls breaky soon just waiting for that fresh bread from nihahi oh yum has it risen yet?



Are your infusions done girls?



Edi...gorgeous pic....im picturing your hubby now in that snow storm....u shovelling for him and now today him wanting to fix the shed...lol bless him !

I have 50g x3 in the one time or 4x 50mgs in the one time.

Glad u better today. Guess your bidy needs to get the hang of them. Ladt time i must admit i dreaded the 4 pill day. Much more nausea but yesterday was my 4 pill day and i was fine funny tummy feeling for half hour then all good!



Today my ds is going to 3 yr older pre school for the first time. I stay with him today...cant wait. Hes all excited yesterday told us hes not going to listen to the teachers!!!

Told my mum i will put herdown as first contact asimsire teachers will ring re his bad behaviour. . Lol

Im sure he will be a changed little boy having teachers tell him off told him they have a naughty corner...lol



Websister im sure bennys fine. We know u cant tell us anything so dont worry. Bennys is getting cate she needs right now. I feel it.



Hows your son? Hows mum?



Bearcubs...scottiee ,65 luv my ,lifie ,bevlee and anyone i may have missed hope u all well xx

Update....Bread is now cooling on racks...laundry is done......I'M FREE!!!!!!!!! Heading out the door for some fresh air. Help yourselves to the bread ladies, I'm outta here!

Edi, you and DH look so cozy together - lovely photo!

Nihahi, our swans are still here. Spring is still a way off it seems. . . Speaking of bread, I baked two loaves of multigrain bread on Sunday. Was supposed to divide dough in two, roll out each just a little, and then roll it up before putting it on the pan (French loaf style). I missed that part of the instructions, put both pieces on the same pan, and ended up with one very large French flatbread - LOL. Not what I had envisioned, but it tasted good. Immediately froze the rest as to not be tempted.

Traii, you truly are like sister Sunshine, always upbeat, always bubbly. Let us know how your little boy is doing in school - lots of funny stories to come for sure.

Did a gentle yoga class this morning, and immediately afterwards a 40 minute abs and butt 'boot camp' where you get chased round a circuit with 20 stations where you do an exercise for one minute, then move on to the next one. Maybe I'm too old for this - still catching my breath an hour later. Have to get the laundry done, and the house tidy. We're going away tomorrow to attend DS's grad ceremony on Saturday afternoon. It ends with a fancy dinner/dance which we will attend with all our children and their partners. Hope the band will play some nice 60's rock and roll too - not very likely. The graduate students are all in their 20's, and its their party, so the old geezers will have to watch from the side . . . we've had our turn, I guess? Lol.

Carla and Dakota, how are you two doing?

Websister, so glad to hear Kenny is doing well, and that everything for your mom is falling so nicely into place. Must feel good. I saw Swan Lake, the ballet, as a 13-year old girl, and was in a trance for days and weeks afterwards. Those wonderfully elegant swan ballerinas, and that handsome prince . . . oh my goodness! Also loved the Ugly Duckling as a child - such a great lesson in that story. These old classics certainly never lose their power to charm us, and still gives such pleasure to this day.

Back from playing outside. Went for a long walk, almost 7 km. So nice to be outside when it isn't painfully cold. Glad you guys liked the bread......but who left the trail of bread crumbs on the counter????? Hmmmm...do I smell cheese, and bacon??????

Websister, so nice to hear things have fallen into place for your Mom. How thoughtful of your son to have been an easy extraction, and a good patient, too.

Liefie, you're doing us all to exhaustion....are you training for the Olympics - Yikes! If you can do what you do, you're definitely not too old for anything!

Bearcub...your Timmie's request is very fitting, since it's Timmie's coffee in the thermos!

Hope Dakota and Carla are home, snug and safe and resting. Edi...still feeling ok???? Traii....we all want to hear the preschool stories. Your frig door will never look the same again, as it now is going to be an art gallery of your ds creations!

And of course, Benny...(((((((X)))))))

Can't wait to hear preschool stories !!! Hope DH wasn't looking for his breaky in our pockets .. Lol my DS cried and hung on to my leg everyday I dropped him off at preschool. Talk about guilt.. Tho now he is a mamas boy. And I love every minute of it!!!

Caitlin , Lesley, luvmy, Benny ... Everyone. Love u warriors hope all is well and sorry if I forgot anyone!!!

Thanks for the pocket party!!! Cheers

ahh, such an eventful morning, retail therapy and then pre-school.....we had to stay there today for the first day.., DS didnt care if we were there or gone because he was having too much fun playing on the swings and stuff outside....he thought he was fireman sam on the pole and was showing the other kids what to arghh feel sorry for his teachers! lol

Bearcub, my DH doesn't catch the gummy shark, I buy that from the fish market, it would probably eat him alive if he did go to catch one...lol they are huge ! nice fish though. The last time he went fishing, he got a speeding fine, cost $238 dollars and I told him he could have bought lots of fish with that and a new fishing rod ( he came home with no fish that day) .... lol

Dakota, glad you had a good sleep, despite us girls chatting away in your pockets, we just couldnt quiet down Nihahi today, think it was all the Kalhua she put in that coffee.....and her breakfast ! lol....

Bread was yummy Nihahi, I could do another couple of slices with that bacon and eggs, though I could do a Chocolate Long john right about now for mid arvo snack!!

Carlads, hope you had a nap too and you are doing ok.

Lol, Websister, I don't think Kenny would appreciate photos up here of him......you definetely wouldn't win 'mum of the year' lol......glad your mum will be back at the lodge soon, kenny will be up and running and you can concentrate on moving forward again as you are and continue to do

Edi, any orders for cakes this week or you taking it easy ? Worked out well that the plumbers didn't come to do up your new bathroom .... I'm hoping today is better and you are having a great dream in sleepy land right now

Well i'm going to do some house work before venturing out for dinner with DH DS, my cousin and her DH & DD....off to the pub

 Hope you are all having an eventful day xx

We must of been on the same time...great mind's think alike Cyber mummy Edi :}

Night out was good fun.

DS is a lively character!!  we were just talking about him imaginig if he tried to escape or do something crazy like that...lol can't believe your son actually did that...what a shock that would have been for you.....my DS is full of adventure. It scares the crap out of me!

Not TMI for me darling.....You want TMI, too much gas for me....lol even DS and DH can't believe it....lol...whoops I just tell DH...oh its all part of it hunny !!

Hope you enjoyed your porrige , well its about lunch time there so I'm sure you will be out and about by now hoping its  a day full of sunshine and minimal SE's for you. xx

Enjoy your Friday sisters.....its almost Saturday here

Hi Everyone,

Just a quick message before I am off for the Neulasta injection, yesterday went well.  Had all of you there with me!

I think you all will get a kick out of this, my white count was out of the box HIGH!  They are almost certain it is the shot that cause my headache last time so they are lowering the dose.  Hope it helps.. 

Edi, sorry your appetite is gone again!  Mine will be gong by this evening unless it is different this time.

Dakota hope you are doing well this am.

Everyone else I will write back soon..  I have so many pictures posted on FB if any of you want to friend request me please do you are all family!!!  I'm Carla Schuler, Ramona Ca

Love you all,

Carla

Carla, so glad you are doing so well - keep up that white cell count!

Edi, Timmies is Tim Horton's, a lovely Canadian coffee-and-doughnut franchise with outlets in almost every town, a real Canadian tradition. They sell soups, sandwiches, wraps etc. too, and their food is always fresh and delicious. You are melting away - hope there is something left of you when you're done!

My sons once ran away from home on their tricycles, if you can believe that. They were four and two years old at the time, and wanted to buy matches to make a fire . . . They crossed a very busy road on their way to the store, bought one box of matches with the 5 cents that they got from somewhere, and the police found them on their way back home. By that time the whole town was looking for them. I am sure I had aged ten years in those few hours that they were missing - naughty little rascals! I found the box of matches the next day hidden in a pillow on the two year-old's bed. Little boys are so unpredictable and adventurous, and one has to be wide awake. Needless to say we kept the gates locked at all times after that experience - phew!

Have a good weekend everybody!

Carla , hope the neu reduction stops headaches.
This appetite loss is horrible, I love food but eat just to keep  going not because I enjoy any of it.x

Dakota, r u ok ? x

nihahi, Timmies sounds great HATE Starbucks, especially since it seems they have paid no taxes here. Big outcry and now they are paying back 20 million pounds over next few years. Too late according to most people.
DH got all stuff for roof so that is tomorrow boxed off, will surround shed with something soft and hope he doesn't hit fingers ( won't be first time ).lol. x

liefie, glory be, thought my DS was a tinker ! You must have been in bits. Good job the matches didn't get used too.
I always embarass my DS by telling his two girls the stories of his exploits, payback time lol x

Off to make a shepherds pie, which will look lovely and taste like yuk. Come back tastebuds all is forgiven. 

Edi x

nihahi, yes this worse with cmf, not wonderful with the epi but could at least face food.Thanks for letting me know it will get better. Four lots of this and I might vanish too. Gosh you did get thin, I am just a nice weight now for my height.
You defo don't want to lose that tummy
Enjoy the sunshine, DH pinting wood for shed roof edging, he is doing it in the back room as dark and cold outside praying that he doesn't kick the paint tin over. He is a bit accident prone x

Heading out early tomorrow for a mountain play day. Probably won't have time to post, just want to wish everyone a good day, minimal SE's and positive thoughts. ((((x))))
