Fantastic news Chrissy, Chrissy i was amused at your saying other day about telling B IL to go and dip his eye, is that an Aussie saying or A Chrissy one, and whats it saying actually incase i do tell him that. funny, lol
Aly, glad you having fun, thanks for Birthday wishes.
Trish, your new baby sounds mischeivious, i guess like most puppies. . well we off to crutch sheep today. we sold 50 at sale ans hope we get rid of most of them this week. have 150 to do today and then they off to various sales in next two weeks, just keeping ewes and lambs,they may go to, if we get good money. but we have not got enough grass, also some pigs will go bye bye too. nest week. hubby has not enough health at mo to keep going and we telling the big wig to take a hike this week, except for one run, three runs are also going bye bye, no more workers. the big wig could not even ask how DH was or utter a word about the hospital stay, ask how he was doing, or he gets is a grunt, bloody twit that guy is, not bil, THE ONE we are contracted to. why work for a bunch of loosers, BIL will do the Last remaining run til next year, to keep an income coming in, and the farm can supply the rest and take pressure off DH. lol. i think the talk is this week. But til its done i will refrain from the bubbly lol. then its get the glasses out BUBS. we should all get the champ out and have a drink to us,. NO MORE Drivers. for us lol, more life

Chrissy, great news!
Annette, sounds like good news for you too :-)0 -
Chrissy....so happy & relieved for you, best news. I had a brain scan about 5 weeks ago due to some weird symptoms & it amazes me how quick the results come through.....I too got my result in a few hours. Have fun shopping & I hope you are able to find everything you need & want.
Trish....I would have loved to have seen the mess from your baby & a video of him having so much fun doing it would be priceless....
Having coffee with my cancer friend Kerry this arvo....so looking forward to seeing her & hearing where she is at in the journey. I think I've already said, they've ceased treatment & called the hospice team....gut wrenching. So I might be a bit down this evening but will pick myself up I know...
Anyway, have a lovely day girls.
(((Hugs)))

Karen, how is Kerry?, did you have a good time with her>
Well all sheep are crutched and some in truck for morning to take to sale. hope they all go.
shoot our Indian worker dropped me off home, hubby drove the truck back to farm, ready to go early and man he passed hubby on a corner going on to bridge, i shut my eyes, hubby slowed right down and moved over. he was not too pleased as he said, he has my wife in that car. was quite a dangerous manovure really, just lucky nobody coming from direction. he rang me up and said thatas the last time you going with him in the car, shit. i was having nerves all the way after that. anyway have a good night. xxxxx

Oh dang Annette! What's with the drivers over there, and some here by the way! I hate driving with others as my hubby used to scare the pants off me and then one day I just told him that unless I was driving I wasn't going anywhere with him.........lol.......that was about thirty years ago and I still drive if we are going together.
That saying is a very old Aussie one.......lol......I remember hearing my mother use it when she was really mad at someone and it is in its full verbiage easily understood. Not being nasty here, just letting you know the full saying.........
'Go tell ** to go dip his/her eye in sh**t'
It seems that years ago when they had the long drop toilet (dunny) it smelt so bad that this was the utmost insult.
Finally home......phew! What a couple of days! At least I know there are no nasties but the symptoms are still there so I guess it's a wait and see/get used to it sort of thing. I did manage to get all the shopping done that I needed and I found some very light weight chiffon that will compliment the mint green that I have.......it's a shade or two darker but that is just fine. I got the zipper and the cotton as well so now I'm all set. The shelves for the cupboard are also with me so now I can get that dang thing finished and filled up!.....lol......I can't wait to get that room sorted as its beginning to drive me nuts!
Karen I do hope you have a nice time with your friend and she is dealing well with this part of her journey.......it's hard to see and sometimes harder to understand and very, very scary..........I feel for you as I went through this just a few weeks ago.
I think I need a cup of tea.......the weather this last two days has been very warm and my body just can't seem to get enough fluid! Catch you all later!
Love n hugs. Chrissy0 -
Todays story should be called Lost. Lost in boston, Lost in Plymouth, Lost everywhere.But we managed to find a cute little seaside town and place to sleep and an excellent dinner.
So tired must sleep.

Oh Aly! I hope you find yourself soon!.......lol.......funny, but not funny.......at least you are having a huge adventure!
Oh my, talk about tired today! Guess yesterday was just a tad too much.......oh well, don't need to rush around today so I'm just taking it easy........lazy girl that I am.........lol
Hope you are all doing okay!
Love n hugs. Chrissy0 -
Aly.....I did read your post on Facebook re being lot, lost & still lost!! These stories are always funny to tell later & good memories.....sounds like you're having a fun time.
Chrissy....you just take it easy today, lay around in your PJ's & have a nana nap in front of the telly....lol. I felt like that on Monday & did a little bit of dozing on the couch....slept 12 hours that night though...:)
Saw Kerry yesterday & she is amazing. They have given her 3 months & she said she can feel the cancer growing....it's wrapped around her heart!! Her hope at the moment is to make it to xmas..... Her daughter is not coping too well, many teary moments & she has said I don't want to get married without you, I don't want to have babies without you, I don't want to have life without you....heart wrenching stuff...:( We had some emotional moments but a lovely catch up & looking forward to the next one.
I've started juicing.....anyone into doing that? Wouldn't mind some tips for nice combinations! I did one with beetroot in the other day & all I could taste was bloody beetroot, very earthy & strong. I have a nice one today (I make a full jug in the morning & leave it in the fridge), carrot, celery, apple, watermelon, strawberry & orange with just a small bit of kale in it.....why is it all the good stuff tastes yucky.....lol
It's very quiet on here.......hope everyone is happy & well.
(((Hugs)))

Karen, I feel for your friend, her DD should be a little more grown up and not put so much on her mum.........if mum had a choice, it definitely would not be this and DD should understand this. Yes, she is loosing her mum but as hard as it is, it is the circle of life and I'm sure she will go on and do all the things she has said she won't.
I wonder if she needs to speak to a councillor to help her understand and come to terms.
Glad you had a good visit aside from that.
Yes, it's is quiet, I think the spring weather is making people go outside and do other things.........lol.........as usual, I'm here......hahahahaha!
Love n hugs. Chrissy0 -
I'm here too - have been reading in between working hard lol
It's beautiful outside, and I don't want to be stuck inside at a desk, but have no choice at the moment lol.
Karen, so glad you had another lovely catch up with your friend, cherish them. Her daughter sounds like she does need some counselling though.
Chrissy - I'm so pleased you are finally listening to your body and taking it easy for a change! :-)
Latest thing baby Finn has done has not impressed me in the slightest.
Came home from work yesterday and dropped my gym bag on the floor in the dining room. He must have waited all of about 10 minutes and then did a lovely poo on top of it!!! WTF??!! It must have been hard to balance on the thing, the back door was wide open, but he ignored that. Puppies are beautiful and entertaining, but so hard to understand at times ... sigh ..

Lol Trish! Perhaps he thought it smelled just right for his toilet.......hahahaha!.......never mind puppies, of late I have been finding the odd little turd left as a gift from my old dog....particularly when I have been away. I think she protests and leaves me little gifts!.....thank goodness she is just little herself as I'd hate to find the gifts from a big dog!
Animals are precious and communicate with us in their own way.....it is for us to work out just what they are trying to say.
Love n hugs. Chrissy0 -
Lol Trish....I think you have your work cut out for you with your new family member!!
They are very, very cute but yes, hard work too! Worth it in the long run though....:)
Chrissy....I never thought of it like that, just felt her sadness. But yes, you're right, what her mum is going through is a lot tougher than those left behind. I don't know about you, but I do at times feel a sense of guilt for putting my family through this.....it is silly I know as this is certainly not what I chose.Their life WILL go on although it will be forever changed. Kerry did take her for some counselling last week but by the sounds of it, it didn't go too well....sigh!!
The weather is glorious.....I've just been out with the dog, she is now knackerred & lying on the floor in front of me so I might do some of my baby knitting.......:)
((Hugs))

Karen, my feeling exactly........even with the CT this week my second DD, whom I stayed with, was really concerned and I didn't even tell the older one or my DH until he asked what it was for. When I got to my DDs house after she had a client in the gym but excused herself so she could ask the result and the look of relief on her face made me feel so bad.
Even though we have to a certain extent accepted our fate so to speak those of our family can and do feel helpless as they watch us go through all of it but I keep saying to my girls that I didn't choose this, it was something out of my control and the time of its end is also out of my control so we just have to make the best of what ever time there is. Never miss a chance to celebrate and spend precious moments where we can laugh and make even better memories. The bottom line always comes down to what we can chose to do or not but as in life itself, sometimes there are no choices and we must just go with the flow.
Hope that made sense.
Love n hugs. Chrissy0 -
It made perfect sense Chrissy......you know, I keep things from hubby & the kids unless they need to know. Like you, I didn't tell anyone of my brain scan....only told hubby about it when the onc called to say it was all clear - whew- & hubby heard the phone call.
The kids still don't know.....I can't see the point in worrying everyone until I have to.
It's heart breakng to see their sadness when we have certain conversations & that's when the guilt kicks in......
It sure is out of our control & while I do have my down time (in private) I do make the most of every minute with my family.....:) Who knows how long we have left......I do know my time will come sooner rather than later but I'm doing my darnedest to fight the beast!!
Grandbaby, here I come.....lol
You're a wonderful lady Chrissy......
(((Hugs)))
Karen xx0 -
Karen, i am very sorry about kerry. very sad for her and daughter. must be hard on them. just live for every enjoyment and moment.

Feeling pretty upset tonight. Doc seems to think my 7 month old grandson has epilepsy. It is in both sides of the family. Really struggling with being away from them

Oh Kylie, ((((((((hugs)))))))). Does the doc think it may be the type that he can grow out of? I sure hope so.....poor little mite.
Love n hugs. Chrissy

Thanks Chrissy. He has to have more tests but if he follows the rest of the family it will be long term. At least treatments have improved.
0 -
Oh yes and the meds are so much better and there are more of them to make sure he gets the perfect fit for him. Please keep us informed on how he's doing.
Love n hugs. Chrissy

Kylie, my DD has it as well and she is an opera singer. The drugs are good these days and as Chrissy said little ones can grow out of it. Great big hugs. I do know how you feel.
