:waving:to everyone else

Hello, whizzy, I don't really know, maybe ligament damage in the knees? Resting for a couple of days helps quite a bit but then I always go and make things worse by walking/running so a change of approach is called for. I'll live, it's just a pain in the bum (or the knees to be precise!). How's your day been?

Hi mama, little PC, jan

Glad you got your hand patched up, jan.

Evening all,
Had a few tears meself this morning when I lit the candle.

Finally got the car in for it's MOT. We've been driving around for nigh on a month illegally. Just had to pay an arm today will have to pay a leg next week when it gets a new exhaust. Then I'll lie down in a darkened room for a few hours gulping hard.

So glad your Mum got there safely. Shall I bring the mint sauce.

hey guys so sorry to hear about draggy, hope you're all ok, thoughts with her friends n family.

for me today sees what I think might be my first day as a single woman... I don't know yet whats going on. My fiance, the love of my life, has admitted he does not feel attracted, physically, to anybody anymore, and has no physical interest in relationships. We enjoy each tohers company immeasurably, i could nto be without him, but I feel like I need more than just a close emotional relationship, at least whilst I'm young. I want to be wanted I guess... so where do I stand? I'm really confused right now, struggling a greta deal to come to terms with where I stand...

Outstanding beaches and the sea has so many colours it's amazing. I'm snoopy so I'd love to know what your connection is and why you go there twice a year. If you want to let me know, PM me. If not, I understand.

The people at the airport were great - they pushed the wheelchair all the way to the car so she didn't have to walk. She's eaten something and is taking a nanna nap. She didn't want to eat anything this morning because she was scared she might need the loo on the plane.

The intention is to fatten her up while she's here. Starting with roast leg of lamb and the trimmings tonight.Ah Tipster, it must be hard to see her so frail. I hated it when my Mother-in-Law got older and sick. Hated seeing her a shadow of her former self. I'm sure she will thrive under your loving care and fill up on your wonderful cooking at every meal.

yes a very sad day.. all day been remebering all chats and looking back thru pm's with Lau....such a lovely lady, so,so sad

It is sad, Jan but you know, after reading others post about being in chat with Draggy and exchanging PM's with her, and how funny she was - those who were lucky enough to know her that way, will remember her sense of humour and will remember her with a smile. My bet is that that is the way she would have wanted to be remembered.

Ah Incy, I don't know what to say that could help you right now. It's indeed a confusing situation. Maybe you both just need a breathing space for a bit and then you could continue to be friends. You're both too young to be in a relationship that has no physical attraction by one of the partners. It's not a good thing at any age but at your age, the physical part is usually one of the strongest elements of the relationship even after several years together. Sending you strength and I know you will get through this. You are a very strong young woman. Sending :huggy your way.

And :hello: to all the rest of the Army!!!

mollyka;1266108 wrote: Xpost Stirly now!! How's you? and how's MrStirly these days?Molly, he's coming along slowly but surely. Thanks for asking. I just have to be after him all the time to be careful. He tries to push himself too far and fast and is impatient with his recovery. And he does things like go out to tend to the plants on the balcony wearing only a light top when he needs to wear a jacket so as not to catch a chill. Insists on lifting things at work that are heavier than he should be lifting. He's just started back to going for his evening walks as of yesterday and tonight wanted to go his usual route of 4 kilometres that starts with 2 kilometres uphill. I convinced him to stick to the level route down to the harbour and back that is about 2-1/2 kilometres for this week and start the longer route next week. I'm afraid I've turned into a bit of a nag but he doesn't listen. His biopsy results are back and he has an appointment with his surgeon on Thursday morning at 10:00. Fingers and toes and everything else crossed that the cancer hasn't metastasized or that if it has, it's only gone to a lymph node or two and can be surgically removed and that's that. Frankly he's been shitting himself about it but feels better after talking to his surgeon today. I have just been keeping as positive an attitude about it as I can. No sense in worrying about something until I find out exactly what we're facing.

Hiya Jackie. I assume that's car repairs that need to be done. Crikey, there's always something.
