    Ladies what a picture cris in Julie Andrews dress with a knitted bonnet wearing haz's apron chasing after sheep I think we could sell that one

    Cris I hope things are well not too bad today and that the cream I working

    Maddie still won't tell me what the rubber gloves were for but she did say that as you had been so good she was going to put them away for now but as soon as she hears you have been misbehaving (or miss l legs requests it) she can whip them out quicker than you can hide.

    Take care honey maddie sends you an extra large kiss(and it was a big sloppy one)

    :lol::lol::lol: Do I have to sing a Julie Andrews song :lol::lol:

    This hill isn't alive but has the sound of music :lol:

    I tried the patches....

    72 hours of being and feeling very sick later i will never do it again.

    Funny I can take the tramadol but not the patches. I am sick with morphine and just lucky with the trams I guess... different kind of synthetic....

    odd isn't it how the same essential drug can suddenly make that reaction?!

    Toni thinks it sparked the vertigo...

    It could be right but it evil and I am so tired of turning my self inside out....

    Just off to do the girls if anyone can help? Feel about as alive as a squashed beetle.....

    Will try and catch up later I promise....

    Just so wished, in pain past my ears and would murder for a decent nights kip.....

    You have been warned :lol:

    Right sheep nuts at the ready and you lot to drive.. we will be fine....

    In jeans though but Julie I am wearing the bonnet :lol::lol:

    Leaving love and hugs and will find a de-wished bucket if it takes all evening...... xxxx

    Hi Chris,

    Tis good to see you flower and thanks for that... kinda need it just now ....

    Leaving you a never ending bucket of ((((( )))))'s, with legs and programed to hug you every hour..... Like it or not cus I ain't telling you how to disarm it :wink:

    You ben some busy for sure flower but I so wish you didn't have to do it all. Another top up ((((( ))))) and don't forget that deadmau5 track always reminds me of you so your never forgotten. Love and a skip lad of duvet days and pain ease. Cris xxx


    Right here it comes... Kinda calmed down a bit but....

    I try and stay positive, the pain doc says she loves treating me cus I am up for anything... and I am ....

    But....

    The patches have messed me up somewhat.... I have got to get the sheeps finished.. they have enough off to be cool and well they just look awful....

    I am so bloody (can I use that word? Apologize f i can't) useless... i mean useless....

    Been like this more half my life and its really got to me just mow....

    The bones are yelling at me... I have had to come off all the tablets for the last 4 days and hell do i know how good they are....

    Did get some more salon duties done, her Ladyship is so kind to me you know... do you think she knows?

    Had to drop some stuff into the bank and went to Truro (again not sure I can say that?)

    Walking down the road as a drunk came out of some where..... then he fell and so nearly took my legs out.... Another one came out and fell on top of him, they then proceeded to roll around the roads... with 2 extras for added good measure....

    Visitors of course but I felt so intimidated.....

    I used to 'deal with idiots like that when I was on the waggons, never lacked courage either but now....

    Scurried as fast as I could and hid back in the car....

    See totally useless. I should have asked if they had hurt them selves on reflection....

    The eyes are not so good... they had the once over today and have reacted to the vision tests....

    Then there is the neck.... the lumber hurts, the neck kills!!!

    I can;t use my arms too well... went into the big T for safety as much as anything... Truro shouldn't have drunks rolling around in it... its a lovely place....

    Got a basket and hell it so hurt... i know why not use a trolley.....

    You know when the pain hits a certain level you become a bit disorientated? Maybe you don't, actually I hope you don't.....

    I just feel the fates have dome enough to me now...

    But as I calm down and stop crying I actually realize arthritis has actually brought me some of the best friends I have ever had and well I guess for that I should say thanks to the fates....

    Though I don't suppose for one min I will :lol:

    Oh to justhave one day with half the pain.... or one night that didn't mean cramp and thump as you try and get comfortable....

    Hey Julie Andrews has left the building and in comes....

    Morticia :lol::lol:

    I go and get a calming draft but I just am so bloody useless.......

    Morning cris

    Must have been quite scarey seeing the drunks falling infront of you. You did right not to ask if they were ok and scurry on your way. That was the best thing to do.

    I am sending hugs and hope that you are feeling a little better today.

    Fingers tightly crossed that the sicky feeling has now gone

    Take care
    Love juliepf x

    Cris I think you did the right thing with the drunks, i would have done the same too. Right now the important bit, you are NOT and never will be useless you a brave, caring, knowledgeable lady, who's wise words have helped me and others many times on these boards. I really hope things improve for you soon. Harry sends woofs and slurps, take care

    One tankerload of calming draft coming your way. There should be enough to pour some over the stupid drunks. Let Morticia do it. That should scare them into sobriety. Sorry it’s so rough for you. Have a few brackets from me ((((( )))))

    Hi Joanne, Julie and Penny (and Harry and well :wink: )

    I was just so down last night,... it all really got to me....

    I felt really intimidated and honestly Truro is such a beautiful place and she wouldn't approve of drunks rolling about her cobbles! Bet those lads hurt today by the way....

    How is that a good night out?!

    Hell forget Morticia... i Mary Whitehouse :lol::lol:

    Got the bonnet on Julie... jeans though but I ain't healing.... I need that drip cus the tablets ain't doing the job at all...

    Its expensive and they may not let me have it cus I am so difficult.....

    Hope you doing ok my fiend and leaving you a ((((( ))))) xx

    Joanne as ever its so good to see you.

    Will answer your pm layer flower as I must go on a decent hay hunt..... be easier to find Eldorado..... :roll:

    So pleased to hear from you cus I often wonder how you are. Will pm you later I promise. ((((( ))))) xx

    Oh Penny I just don;t seem to sleep any more and its not good to feel sick all the time.....

    They are looking for an add in.... the pain has escaped the stuff I have just now.....

    Dam thing... tis in its hamster ball but its getting stuck and banging into the same bit all the time :lol: there are 2 hamster balls hitting different places... Might have to put them in a cage as well :lol:

    Could Harry come and help today? Whats he like at shearing.....Fencing... see if could do just one of those things today i would feel less useless but feeling like the walking dead..... :lol:

    hell do i morph a lot.... now turned into a zombie... must be the ice cream ( borrowed from my parents are aliens :wink: )

    You ok flower and leaving a ((((( ))))) and a chew stick for Harry and a promise of a car clean up later :wink: xx

    Right I do apologize for gong off on one last night...

    I just so tired of pain and seeing one of the most beautiful bits of truro trashed by drunks was the final straw......Silly isn't it will morph back to me next ice cream hit :wink:

    You all take care and I shall go and see how useless fencing is today... and the girls./.. well they wont take much to finish now.......They should just have zip's... be so much easier.....

    Hi Sticky,

    the brackets are much appreciated and a bucket load coming back designed to morph into bear hugs when they see you :wink:

    I was taken back at how intimidated I felt.... i really did used to deal with idiots like that every shift as near as but courage went out the window and all I could think of was he missed my legs by less than an inch and had I gone down it would have done some real damage!

    Oh flower I am half my old self if that.... Ops no more rants today think positive :lol:

    Hey while your on the roof stop the lodgers from doing more damage.... Primmy has broken the door..... Would have been an easy fix once.... no more rants, well not till later :lol: Tea and Slurps has got your breakfast... no really she has :lol: xx

    Hey skezier, you’re stronger than you think. Proper bearhugs. Nearly fell off the roof. Great stuff.

    That thing with the drunks isn’t about courage and/or lack of it – it’s about common sense. Like you said, another inch and the implications wouldn’t bear thinking of. I don’t need drunks to do that to me these days – small, excited children terrify me whenever they get close, even my own grandson trying to ‘help’ me downstairs quicker than I can go.

    Half your old self, eh? Blimey, how did the world cope with the full skezier???? I bet it was fun. Would have liked to be there.

    When you say Slurps has ‘got your breakfast’, er….where exactly? Outside or inside?

    Hi Cris

    (was great to see Chris7 wasn't it?!) and Joanne as well :smile:

    have you got your badge yet? I only say because then you can park outside the cashpoint or whatever and leave yourself less vulnerable to the drunks.

    How is Morticia?? :lol: that did make me laugh as intended.

    Usual supplies coming to you from us lot down here and about 50 sticky ball.....not sure why....might be useful :???: :shock:

    Love and ((((()))))

    Hi Sticky, Joanne, Toni, Joan, Barbara, and Val,

    Bit better today..... 8 trams again and though I felt sickish on and off I haven't been.... just had a mustard and coleslaw sarnie to test out that theory.... :lol::lol:

    I think 2 things hit home, and one old thing that's hard to shake off....

    I don't normally feel vulnerable.... I really am too thick to see my own dangers. See other peoples and will try and help them but never my own if that makes sense?

    I am rural, it never crosses my mind someone will have a go at me till they do... any more than it does an animal really.... silly as Cornwall has the modern world both moving in to change it and a huge influx of up country folk with their attitudes all spring/summer long. Means things are not safe as they used to be eh?!" :lol: (some changes were needed of course but the kinda attitudes we don't actually need)

    So to feel so very vulnerable.... kinda hit me..... It was worse cus my old hunters had broken that day.... they also long wore ff the trade and the cobbles are slippery with the rain that was falling. That didn't help.

    It was the fact they were horribly drunk and cus my father was an alki and I dealt with so many drunks on the waggons I actually neither like or trust them at the best of times. I am short and they were a good 6', didn't help either.....

    The second thing....

    You might have realized i have trouble knowing I can't do something and don't except the limitations this shift makes on my body.... Both of those things hit me in the face simultaneously.....

    I am not so good at the mo, bit unstable, wobbly and feel like I will black out a lot of the time if standing or walking... fine sat except for the good old lumber :wink:

    I guess I am starting to relish? Must get my head back in that sand soon...... :lol: I much prefer the sand look any day :lol:

    Top of the head is touching the sand again and well I am back to trying to be positive.... though the employers are not exactly helping and I have a 5am stat and well (sorry folks) are kinda hoping for rain in the morning :lol: )

    Sticky Ummmm well.... she had it and she said a horrible thing came out the hedges dressed in the slurpy costume and ate it but it wasn't her..... it was the horrible thing in the slurp suit....( I don't think I would want one of those :lol: )

    I was a bit of a heller before..... thats how I got most of this oa :lol: The pa... must have been a mass murder in a past life :lol:

    More hugs to turn to bears and a cuppa and please yell if you haven't seen a light go on by 5.05......xx

    Joanne Promise flower I will, just a bit stretched out but the chicks are almost baby hens now in their peeping.... once they stop peeping haz will be safe with them so it will be good to see them free. ((((( ))))) and a real hope today is a good day. xx

    Toni The usual supplies much appreciated flower. You better not be over doing it... the stern face for that bit :wink: Not sure which head though.... Cuppa and a ((((( ))))) and a hope xx

    Joan Hope you and Sue had a good birthday? Did the employers give you the bumps? They said they had. came back looking fatter so either they stole your dinner or you spoilt them :wink:

    Teg and his mum should be back soon and must send you some pics of Primmy and Blossom.... they are both lovely and Primmy is still the best ever except for my own :wink: ((((( ))))) to you both xx

    Barbara Don't normally go down that far, I wont cus of my mothers wallow pit but to feel so vulnerable and know how close he was to my legs... it felt the air it was that close and I wouldn't have got up quickly, not from them stones.

    Then its upsetting me the sheep look so awful.. they are cool enough but I can't seem to hold the bend needed for shearing for more than a min before the legs give out totally.....

    Then in came that hideous can;t get away from pain and I went like a stone in water..... Hey you lot heaved in the water wings again.

    Hope your okish flower and leaving tea and a ((((( ))))) xx

    Val you got so much going on just now flower its not surprising you don't have time. Never day sorry and I hope things are all a bit more stable for you? ((((( ))))) and a cuppa xx

    Right I got to try and get the neck to shut up a bit so I can get a few hours kip cus I am becoming so teasey of late and lack of sleep don't help.....

    Leaving tea for the morn.....

    You don't think Slurps might possibly have been telling porkies, do you? I'm sure her nose is getting longer. Do you think a book of Slurpy stories might be a possibility?

    Cris,

    just popping in to say hi. S made a delicious chocolate cake so am leaving you a large slice. The novel I'm reading at the mo is set in Cornwall.

    Definitely get a blue badge - SO useful. Can't believe you haven't got one. 'Tis one of the only perks of this wretched condition.

    Hi Cris

    Just a quick hello to leave so many hugs and positive vibes. Sorry things so grim all round at the moment!! (((( )))) Do keep talking to us though and let us know how you are. I promise I look in on you but don't have the energy to post much at the moment. My sis is here on a rather unexpected visit for a couple of weeks so my spoons are a bit short, forgive me. I don't forget you and many others on here and hope to be posting again soon.
    Love, cope, stamina and buckets of fortitude. (((( )))

    Hi Cris,
    Fingers crossed this morning is warm and sunny for you. I am sorry that the tablets have not been able to keep the circulation up on their own but maybe a combo of the dreaded drip and tabs might give you the answer and a shorter stay time would be possible for the drip.
    It does hit you when you come face to face with the more ugly side of life. Sadly we do feel intimidated and shocked by it. I hope you are feeling less shaky today.

    Hope the hunters are repairable and Primmy has stopped her shed leaning.
    Hugs as always,

    Hey my lovely. I am so sorry to read about the drunks, none of us need that and all of us can empathise with the vulnerability. Like sticky I find small children a hazard - if things don't improve on that front I can see me getting my retaliation in first. You did absolutely the right thing in scarpering and yes, get that BB sorted sooner rather than later, they are lovely things to have.

    We need to get this pain under control somehow, yes? That and all the rest of it. I am stumped at the moment, I have to admit. Sorry. :oops: DD
