I didn't tell you all how good the ballet was Saturday night. You can see a small section on the w's royalcentre-nottingham.co.uk there is a short video. The costumes and colours were beautiful. The performance different, but well thought out and executed. Loved it

Nice to see Carolina back. xx

Monday morning so hardly had any sleep last night. Have quite a trip to work today, so already running to the loo. Talk later

Joyce are you watching the number ? xxx

Love to all xx

Hi all, hope this week brings some ease with your problems, some laughter to your lives and some sunshine too, been a miserable old summer most of the time!
Am so tired I can't think straight so excuse me not mentioning people individually and also, if I owe pms etc, my apologies, can't catch up yet.
love and hugs

Joyce, good to see you on here. Look forward to when you feel able to come back and chat to us. So miss your epistles that made me laugh.

Eileen, yes it is potassium in bananas. Hope you got all the washing sorted. I get confused have you got 2 or 3 daughters? (Had to edit that it said 33, wouldn't wish that on you!)

Eileen
I hope you find an improvement this time when you visit. Poor you, you will be worn out..

Deanna, I think we can become intolerant to foods that we have always eaten. I wonder if the banana interacts badly with one of your medications and maybe it depend show close it is between taking the pill and eating the banana. Shame if you like them but better stay off them if they make you feel poorly.

Gail, how lovely to be looking forward to spring, we are looking forward to winter and don't feel that we have had a summer this year. In fact it already feels like October here with weak sunshine and quite chilly. I have not seen pink violets, or are they violas?

Caz I have heard so many dumb *cures* in my life... I've even heard one from a daughter to her mother who had had a stroke and was paralysed down on side!

*put your good hand behind your back and don't use it.... that will force you to use bad hand!!* WHAT???

Caz you just concentrate get yourself well and ignore all idiotic advice. X

Yes Carole, I've been really ill over letting you down like that. ;-0) X
How did you enjoy Swan Lake? Beautiful isn't it?
No I just suddenly felt really sick, and generally not 'right'. I found later that I had not taken my pills. For some reason best known to my 'tiny little mind', I had taken the wrong tablets.
I wouldn't mind but I have my tablets all measured out in little boxes.. so don't ask me how!!
It lasted all day too.
This morning I feel pretty bad.. because I had a banana after my porridge!
Has anyone else ever found themselves going off something they have eaten for ever??
I did find that they were upsetting me a while back, so stayed off them, but recently I have been able to eat one now and again..... until this morning.

Jill is very ill again. I phoned her husband yesterday and he is upset. He can't do anything for her so I suppose he feels bad about that too.
She is on Oxygen, and is not taking it now. Bless her she is such a lovely woman and I feel bad as I can't do anymore that her poor husband.
I did put up a request for prayers, lets hope they help a bit.

Caz C, why do you think the person who provided the booze will get off??
Surely it is against the law to provide booze to youngsters? X


Jenni-Rose... chin up love, there is help out there. You are not alone. X

Eileen, Gail, Ann, Carolina... see you all later. Have a good day.

Lots of love to all

~~~~~~~waving to everyone. Did not get back yesterday as had ""Family Meeting"" but that is a long and depressing story.

Have been pruning today and doing some clean up and waiting for SPRING. I have some pink violets my mum gave me when we moved in and they are all flowering like a pink carpet in one garden. It is the only garden without rock or bark covering. It was much warmer here today and no cold wind so was perfect for gardening.

Hope you are all well, but for those that are not extra love and Hugs.

Hello everyone, I am having a rare few minutes on computer, been in bed all day. Hubby had to stay at home today as I felt terrible and the effort of trying to walk is too much. I saw Rhuematologist on Thursday and he went out and phoned my Neurologist about my paralysed foot, came back and said Neurologist wants to see me asap but I have to have a nerve test first as part of foot is numb.
I have gone over on my foot so many times I have hurt it now and it's strapped up. The good news is that he is writing to my doctor to ask her to prescribe morphine patches, oh the bliss of being painless or at least less pain will be lovely if they work.

Hope everyone is ok.

Tonight I am going to Nottingham to the theatre to see Swan Lake performed by Chinese acrobats and ballet. Last year this time I sat with the curtains closed all day, and walked the dog when it got dark.
Thank goodness for anti depressants.

I am fine and we had visitors (sil and OH) today and had a good laugh.
Also had a bit of real sadness, as bil's best pal is dying... and knows it. Bless him. Hard to take isn't it?

AND, Carole that sounds like my first washing machine. did not last long though then Allan bought me a big top loader... oh how I loved that machine.

Hope you are all well today.

Hi Jenni- Rose.
Sorry to hear you have been feeling down for so long. Do go and tell your doctor. They have a list of questions which you take home and answer, then pop back in later. From this they can asses how depressed you are. And what medication you need to start on. No shame in it at all. Most of us on here are on one anti depressant or another. Lots of us take citalopram, I take 40mg a day. I don't think I could cope with out it. been on it a year now. Last year I was a hermit, who walked the dog in the dark and kept the curtains closed all day. Tomorrow night I am going to see Swan Lake in Nottingham, what a difference.
Come back and talk to us, tell us when you have made the all important appointment to see your doctor xx

Been there Caz, done that, and agree the adult should be in court for supplying the drink in the first place.

Unfortunately, your daughter may learn a lesson the very hard way, and sometimes this is enough to keep them on the straight and narrow. I do hope it goes okay for you, will be thinking of you.

Hi Ann, see just above.

Will be back later as having dinner/tea.

Jenni-Rose. Do go to your doctor and I am sure you will get the help you need. And come back on here and chat, you will get lots of support and some laughs as well. We are good at laughing at our own misfortunes.

Caz, thinking of you. She is a silly girl. The one who should be in court is the adult who gave them alcohol.
