Catie

Morning Toni and Everyone

Toni, I love pancakes - savoury and sweet - delicious

Barbara, your poor little gd, I hope she's feeling a lot better and that both you and the rest of the family stay clear of the bug. I bet you're exhausted, so hope you can rest.

Hope Karen and Elizabeth are feeling a little better too.

My poor OH is in the wars 'again'. He was chopping an onion with a new and very sharp knife. Unfortunately the onion slipped and the knife caught his left thumb. Never seen so much blood :shock: . A lovely doctor at A & E glued him back together again - fortunately no worse than that.

See you all later

barbara12

Oh Catie that is awful...your poor hubby and you come to that...they always say use a sharp knife.... thank goodness they have glued it together....bet you were both in shock..
I don't mind other people blood but when it come to my own...
I will see you all later xxx

Afternoon all

Thanks for the well wishes. And Elizabeth, I hope you are coming through the other side now. I still feel worn out. (more like totally wiped out) but the pain is a little better. Think I might make a doctors appt.

It is very overcast down here. Yay, clocks going forward is only next week. Barbara, I'm sure half my life I am in hibernation.

Have a good afternoon all

barbara12

Karen hibernation wont do you any harm...it will get you ready for summer...Im glad the pain has eased...don't you find the meds stop working..the sun was shinning not long ago now its gone in .
We went to the garden center...but found all the wheelchairs were being used...so didn't get very far...well has far as the cafe....
See you all later xxxx

mig

Don't mind other people's blood and I can cope with most dramas not very good when it comes to me.
Well daughter is just doing the venison,we are having broccoli and herby potatoes with it all and a red current jus (that's posh for gravy)will let you all know what it's like.
Have a good evening all. Mig

barbara12

Mig just give me ten mins and I will be round with sticky toffee pud....my OH reminds me I had venison pie from a farmers market.....cant remember it..
you enjoy mig

mig

OMG the venison was to die for,pink and juicy,will definitely recommend it.Will hire daughter out to cook very reasonable rates hubby is washing up ,a lazy day for me. Mig

barbara12

Mig I hope you have saved me some I am still on my way caught the wrong bus :oops: ...you did say the 33 didn't you...glad you enjoyed it x

constable

Evening all,

Barbara, there may not have been wheelchairs but at least you made it to the cafe, thats the main thing. Did you enjoy it.

I do remember reading, someones hubby sliced his finger. I think it was Catie. I hope he is ok and you have recovered from all that blood.

Mig, I have never tryed venison. Tony has. Had it in burgers and sausages. I just start thinking of bambi. :? I'm the same with rabbit. Sad arn't I.

Shall be laying down very soon, I am so fed up with my left side. Arm neck and even hand now. It's fine as long as I dont do anything but that is impossible. Right, moan over, sorry.

applerose

Toni, you've reminded me I meant to have pancakes for lunch but forgot and had boiled eggs instead.

Barbara, glad your GD is feeling a bit better. Hope her mummy doesn't have the bug for too long. Glad you at least managed to get to the cafe. Done a bit of research on the Trip. It says you can feel a bit spaced out in the mornings if you take it too late and it was suggested not to take it any later than 8pm. Not what my GP told me. I did as you suggested and took it earlier last night. Felt better when I woke up this morning.

Oooooh, Catie. Just had shivers up and down my body thinking about your poor husband using the knife. Hope you have both recovered from it.

Mig, sounds as if you had a lovely day. Not sure if I've had venison before. Is it a strong flavour?

Karen, yes it might be a good idea to make a doctor's appointment. Hopefully, he can help with the pain and make you fell less worn out.

There was sunshine here when I first woke up but it had disappeared once I'd had breakfast. Snowed from late afternoon and still is. Clocks go forward next week. Yaaay! Ermm no, that means I need to get up for work an hour earlier.

Are there any marshmallows left or did everyone toast them on the fire? I'll have a hot chocolate with some on I think while I sit near the fire. Hope I don't fall asleep as it is so cosy there.

mig

It's not strong at all ,it's a bit like steak in texture as well as taste will definitely have it again when it's on offer.will have the duck legs next weekend.
Heard there was snow in Oxfordshire,we had rain for most of afternoon.
Hope your doctors appointment goes well Karen.
Will have hot choc as well and marshmallows too.
Night all.Mig

Enjoy the peace and quiet if you can although I expect your Pup will be wanting lots of attention.

Its my left side too Karen. I have taken my beloved Humira injection, 2nd one since I took a break due to illness, and usually humira works for me but the flare has got a bigger stranglehold on me.

the reason I didn't try the venison is I saw the poor thing hanging up in the shed! It put me off.

Barbara poor GC. My son had the sickness and temperature and is off today. I bet your GC feels all weak after all that.

Morning all, anyone around to join me with a coffee?

Elizabeth

constable

Morning all

Barbara I am sorry that you're shoulder has decided to join in and stop your sleep. Hope it eases for you today.

Coco, good to see you, and you not knowing what to do on your own....I bet you will find plenty, your one of those people that cannot sit still for long. But just spread it all out wont you.

I have made an appointment to see dr today. My arm,hand and shoulder are driving me mad now. Whatever I seem to do,it really hurts.

Ido hope that you are all okish and have a good day.

Elizabeth, how are you doing?? I hope maybe feeling a bit better now.

constable

Elizabeth, I shall join you for a cuppa. Sorry that things are getting worse not better. And that you have your son home with this rotten bug. Things just have to improve you soon.

tkachev

Morning Karen. not better yet. This flare has got a hold.

did you see that i get my Sons payments reinstated with backpay? So now I can pay for a carer again. I keep adding updates on Problem with Carer thread but I think the updates are getting lost on a long thread.

Elizabeth x

coco67

Hi barbara karen and elizabeth, sorry your all still suffering, i hope it all eases soon, can i join you for a cuppa, ive been at the bleach again, kitchen is nice and clean but im knackered again lol

constable

And Elizabeth, I had seen the post, that is good news. Well needed. Just need to get yourself back on track.

coco67
