    Hi Cris :D

    how are you today? how're the bones/ discs doing :wink: :!:

    wondering whether you were able to do a body swerve of the sales or had to go after all :?:

    anyway, sending you love n hugs and a pint of stout to enrich your RBCs and give you a wee lift.

    Irisxxx

    wally, ruby and jakey boy sending clicks, wags and slurps too. xx

    Hi Cris

    Just to say hope you managed some sleep last night and the body is being kinder to you than it has been recently.

    I think you are at a sale today, so hope it was worthwhile going..

    How are all the animals?

    We had the 'cat food thief' again in the night.. I had been keeping the dish on my bed as Freya can't get up there, but in the night I felt a gentle tug, tug, tug, tug on the bed cover and then bang, the dish of cat dried cat food landed on the floor.. The liftle devil must have known it was on the bed and had worked out a way of getting it onto the floor by pulling the bed cover with her teeth!

    Love from Marion

    Hi Cris,

    Hope you got everything done at the sale quickly and home again to rest those bones. Did Debs brings gales?!

    Marion that is one sneaky cat-food-thief!!

    Hi Iris, Marion and Speedy,

    Did half a sale....... the wrong half it feels like :lol::lol: Tomorrow I do have to do a real one for sure and no mistake.....

    Iris this lot (and me as well if I get anymore tireder :lol::lol: ) send slurps to you and Wally as well a Jakey and Ruby and ta muchly for the RBC boost :wink: Hope you 4 get a good night and leaving a (((( )))) in addition to the slurps.... xxx

    Hi Marion,

    Freya sounds like an intelligent dog that mine stand i ore of.... they would have eaten the bed, the food and me to boot and not gone for the subtle approach at all :lol::lol:

    Its a bit nicer to me today and I have been less tired so that's something.... weather that will still be the case tomorrow morning remains to be seen :wink: I tend to find 2 early starts a bit much nowadays. Oh for some of my old energy to come back just once a week eh?! :lol::lol:

    Hope your having a decent week end? ((( ))) Cris xx

    Hi Speedy,

    Its slightly easier and I see the gp on Tuesday so that might help to find out what it is I have done to it.... I just need to not do the arm chair thing for a bit.... that doesn't help at all :roll:

    Hope you and S are having a decent week end? ((( ))) xx Oh no gale yet but they are down for the week so plenty of time.....

    Hi Cris, glad you only stayed for half the sale ... even though it felt like a whole one... Perhaps a bit of lie in on Monday then, if it is same again tomorrow.

    It's easy to do the fall asleep thing when you are tired, I used to do it on the sofa - the old "I'll just rest for 5 mins and then get ready for bed ....zzzzzzzz!!" Hope you are tucked up in bed as I type and not snoring in the chair.

    Take care,

    Speedy

    PS haven't forgotten about your eyes - my friend is just struggling to get end of term reports written and course work done, plus organising a weekend on albinoism ... once she calms down I will pick her brains.... and once things calm down your end, ring the RNIB - I think you'll be pleasantly surprised about the advice/services they offer.

    Hi Speedy,

    Thanks flower... I shall ring I promise.

    Hey survived the sale and well its hurts like hell but nothing like it was so that's something eh?

    I must remember to talk to the doctor about so much..... I must remember to take it with...... I must remember to write it :lol::lol::lol: Oh Speedy I think I can be summed up in a few words..... no hope :lol::lol::lol::lol:

    Hope you and S have had a decent Sunday and I am sat here watching 2 seagulls who have attached them selves to the ducks for some reason....... ((( ))) xx

    Hi Cris

    Sorry things still really rough there but at least you made a sale and a half! this weekend. Do hope they were good ones for you so the pain payback wasn't wasted. :?

    Try and have a slower day tomorrow please if you can. Not sure when you see Debs but am sure you are all looking forward to that. AND I see Primmy and Flower back which is good news. :D Just make sure they realise you are not a toy to be bounced around. Though that may be wishful thinking on my part.

    Hope you are in the embers soon and not dozing in the chair there again. Take care Cris, I know Tuesday a worry but we will be with you. ((( )))

    love and fairings (its the cinnamon that makes 'em taste nice I think? )

    Hi Cris,
    I hope you have a list prepared for the GP tomorrow - just hand it to him if necessary - make sure it has all the problems on you have been having and things like, I'd like an ortho referral on it.

    Also hope you have had an easier day today?!?!

    Take care, thinking of you,

    Speedy

    PS was watching Countryfile this evening and it made me think of you ... sheep, sheering, sales etc

    Hi Cris

    Just joining the queue for the pocket duties tomorrow. Do hope you get some help there and can soon be home and feel well enough to do a bit of Primmy, Flower and Bracken watching. :D
    Hope you have a good catch up with Debs when you see her too. Hang on to that thought through tomorrow if you can.

    Will be thinking of you (((( ))))
    love

    Hi Toni,

    A ((((( ))))) and so many hopes your gp will help you... let me know as its very familiar..... far to familiar and mine... well mines mental problem! NO IT word that would be deleted NoT!!!!!!! Sorry wisps of steam coming out the ears just now.....

    Good luck flower and I do know they except I have eye migraines if that helps? xxx

    Thanks Iris...... xx

    Right had to chose one aliment and she wanted to talk about my eyes...... She has given me some cream gel for my neck but as ever limited time and also the eye departments letter..... I am so cheesed with this you know I said I wouldn't be going again but the doctor said I have to learn to play the system..... some sentence eh?!

    Here is what I know (and in letters in the notes) I have had recurrent optic neuritis (and was told by a consultant it had done lasting damage and he was an eye consultant!) Semi detached retinas, chronic circulation to the eyes and eye migraine and yet ..... its all in my head!!!! Then send me to a shrink and do it fast.

    Why is it you can never get help and this idiot eye doctor (a registrar) has said he wants to see me again in 2-3 months.... ok so why if there is nothing wrong?! The doctor told me to learn to play the game and ask for a second opinion from someone better qualified..... whats the point?!

    I am so cheesed off but I know its what a lot of us have thrown at us.... told one thing, told another and then told its all in your head!

    I shall go have a cuppa and calm down now......

    Hope you all are having a decent day? ((( )))'s t all, Cris who had to ask a total stranger to do up my shoes this morning :oops: :oops: xx

    Cris, my little Cornish Piskie, I`m afraid I`m with the doctor on this one. You absolutely have to play the game, if you are ever going to get someone to give you the help you need.

    Sweetie, instead of using all that energy sky ranting, start ranting at all the clowns who have been letting you down so very badly. You know it makes sense. We are all behind you, and only want you to get the help you deserve, so that you can continue doing what you love most in life.

    Know how much we all care about you.......Much love........Ange.

    Hi Joan,

    Will be out waving on the hedge side this next time :wink: ((( ))) xx

    Oh Ange,

    That moved me to tears... mind I was close anyway.... We shouldn't have to play the system at all! I will see the idiot one again but the doctor said to stay calm and just ask for a second opinion..... She said a load of other things about how the game works but well I was just upset over this mental thing cus as you know my mother had BIG mental issues and well I have had it thrown at me from the family ever since cus I look like her but I am not her and have not got her problems..... as a counselor tell me I am not insane! Please...... :lol::lol: ((((( ))))) xxx and a cream tea from Toni's pocket :wink: She just text to say she was going in...... I hope she gets some answers as it could help us both eh?!

    YOU are one of the sanest - and most beautiful - people I know!!!!!!!

    Unlike many people, you have worked out what matters in life. This makes you a very special person, but you know what Cris, a lot of folk are scared by that, because they don`t understand. They would rather race through life, accumulating more and more c**p.

    I know these things sweetie :D

    Trust me, I`m a Counsellor. :lol::lol::lol: .........Much love........Ange.
