new and future flat sister, with questions
Comments

All the talk of turkey soup is making me hungry. Maybe I will get a chicken breast and make chicken vegetable soup with lots of veggies. Or maybe just vegetable soup with veggie broth.
I'm talking to DH about taking the sister of the cat we took to Portland. She initially tested positive, then negative on the second test. She needs testing again in a couple of months and if still negative will be eligible for adoption. She needs to be kept separate from other cats, which is fine because we don't have a resident cat.0 -
Good Morning everyone!
Beautiful morning, but hot, hot, hot. We slept with the fan on all night, but I woke up groggy from the heat.
Wren, so sorry to hear about your husband. I hope he's feeling better.
I told Colin about the rocket launching, just knew he'd love to do that! Glad you didn't take out the eagle!
Hi ndgirl, glad to see you back safe and sound! You had a great catchup with everyone.
Bec is fine now, but is having issues with her Father who has just thrown her into turmoil about Christmas. He's just called her to say that her brother is coming from London with the new girlfriend, and they are having a party on Boxing Day. She is now torn because she is coming here, and can't work it to get to Sydney, where they live, which would be an overnight bus at 11pm from here, arriving at lunchtime on Boxing Day, so she would only get less than 24 hours with us. She has to be back at work right after the Christmas break, so again, a drama!
You're so right about the Contact! We both couldn't wait to get it. I think I will likely get into it with some of my lighter clothing for Summer.
I got a parcel in the mail yesterday from Amoena. I had contacted them some time ago to let them know how happy I have been with the product I have from their range. Their manager and I have been corresponding, she asked me to write my story for their magazine, and also asked me if I would "Test Drive" a new Prosthesis! So, it arrived yesterday, with a sheet of questions to be answered in a couple of months. I wore it yesterday, and it has a clear silicone back to transfer heat. So it will get a good run for its money with our hot weather!0 -
Bobo, I am so pleased to hear you are having help with the housework. I think it will be money well spent! I am in the bag with you, just to keep an eye on you!
Zills, Yes, there is water stops along the way for Dex, but he is just such a creature of habit, doggie OCD is what I call it. Every time we go out, he will come in, drink, and hurl!
So glad to see your skin is holding up well! Are you still massaging?
I watched the the You Tube, and will definitely try those moves.
Meant to say that yes, it gets too hot for me to walk. We get these awful hot Northerly Winds that drive everyone nuts. Sometimes we get a run of days over 40c and the sun just burns you right through your clothes. We are barely into the really warm days and already my lawn is turning crispy. It doesn't matter that I water, it just does that from the extreme sun. I don't know for sure, but they say it is because we have a huge area of Ozone layer that has gone from our atmosphere, so the sun is not filtered before it hits Australia. It was said to be caused by too much use of fluorocarbons in aerosol sprays, but I thought everywhere in the world used those as much a we did.
Marika has 50% of for a few more hours. I hate when they do that, I bought another load at 40% the day before, but had to get more when it was 50% off. I am soooo addicted!0 -
Fieranch, I understand completely about the stress. We felt it as soon as we arrived back in Melbourne for Colin's Mother's Funeral. It was our first time back since moving here, and neither of us liked it. We couldn't wait to get home!
I totally believe our health is determined by the levels of stress we have to endure.
I would urge you to go and be properly fitted for the bras and the Prosthesis. I think, after reading so many posts on these boards that the BMX ladies have more issue with the weight of the silicone. For those like me who are Uni's it is just a matter of balance. I lost 975gm when mine was removed so the weight is just replacing what was there. I must say though, when I go half flat, I really don't have any feeling of lopsidedness.
I am glad I am not the only one having issue with the Marika sizing!0 -
Hugs to gramwe, and the OG!
Where is gB today?0 -
Ariom, I agree Marika sizing is crazy! I can wear M in the bottoms, though I have a L leggings on order from zulily just to see if that may be better. My first order from zulily I got med tops/jackets. The two jackets are fine. Two of the long sleeve tops were OK, but a tad snug. And the tank top was just way to snug! Today I got my order from Marika directly, I ordered a long sleeve hooded top and a hooded jacket in L this time and they are OK so will probably do L on tops from now on.
Zills, I'll be with you this week, I may be napping some of the time in the bag! Thanks for the links to the videos. I'll check them out when I get caught up. Yay for DH really pitching in for the dinner! LOL re fiaranch and I are twins separated at birth!
ldesim, hope Joe's back is healing. I have back problems too and it is no fun when it flares up!!
Wren & ndgirl, I so know what you mean about the crazy weather predictions!! But when we know we have to drive, we have to heed the warnings even if they come to nothing, too risky not to! They said we were going to be having high winds and snow, so far rain and a few flakes of snow. Tonight's overnight temp predicted to be 1°F and dipping into the minuses the rest of the week. Plus snow. It snowed in the mountains almost down to the valley floor (where I am), but nothing here yet.
Wren, So sorry about DH! Wow that's a lot of stitches! Also glad no concussion! The rocket event sounded so fun!! We have quite a few eagles around here, they are so beautiful to watch soaring high in the sky.
ndgirl it sounds like you had a wonderful trip! Glad you got to spend the time with family. Sure hope you didn't bring any bugs home with you. Yep, we are under the same storm watch.
fiaranch, I know how you feel about eBay! It was my sole support up until I took Social Security last year. I still sell but more part time now just to augment the SS (which needs to be done!). Since bc entered my life, I am so unmotivated to get back in the groove of listing. But I really need to do it!! argh
I went to the fitter, who turned out to be a ditz and ordered wrong sizes, then turned out to have the right one in stock! I got regular silicon boobs which I really don't like, too heavy. I have never worn them going out. I felt more self conscious in them than going flat. I also got a set of the contact boobs which I might like once I start to wear them. I am waiting till the six month mark before trying them. I think most of the time if not all, in the end I will just go flat. It is so much more comfortable!
Better post before this disappears!
Hugs!0 -
Wren, what a kind heart you have. That would be good to get that little girl kitty and hopefully she will test negative the next test and will be able to go to a forever home after that.
Ariom, I'm here! Just got to this page, had a late start. So sorry about Bec and the drama around Christmas. It is tough. There were Christmases when my kids were younger when my second DH and I only had them like half a day and then had to drive them to the ex because something was going on with his family. Use to really hate that! Glad Bec is better!
Very cool about the sample boob to test out. Let us know what you think of it too! You are getting the heat and we are heading to below freezing here! So cool to be able to share our seasons with the other side of the world! May pop over to the Marika site and take a peek, think I have some things in my cart.... ummm no, I will resist! I still have 9 Marika items coming from zulily, must show some restraint!! Must......
bobo, hope you can work in some rest time for yourself on the run up to sx. Just think, this time next week you will be on the other side of it and healing up. Good that you hired the help with housework. No stresses with messes.
Hugs to all!0 -
Hi gB, glad to see you!
I used to hate it when Bec's Dad was living in Hong Kong. He was there for many years, and he wanted me to send her on her own, but I refused because it was just too far by herself. My Dad and I went one year and stayed in Hong Kong for a fortnight so she could spend time with her Dad. My Dad loved being back there because he had lived there for a couple of years when he was younger too.
I went back onto Marika and bought the matching set of pants, capris and zip front jacket in the mauve and carbon grey. The whole lot came to $35.00 or so, instead of about $170.00, that's my kind of discount!0 -
M, I wish you could pick me out a comfy outfit, put it in the bag, and then let me know so I can pay for it. Up to my neck at the moment, working, and wish I had a punk marika outfit! DLLP is complaining that my exercise pants have bite holes in them from when bobo was a puppy. I have no matching track jackets with them. I am a little bit of a raggedy mess.
Steamed cauliflower with cream sauce and roasted tempeh bacon coming to the coffee table. Bobo is looking at me right now! I am worried that he will be alone too much while I am in the hospital. Really worried. I asked my brother to take him for the weekend, but he won't do it. DLLP will have to drive back and forth to feed him. XXX0 -
wth? After all you did for your brother.. grrr.. the kids are all set right? They're going to the farm? Can Bobo not go too? I am glad you got some help.. now you have no excuses not to relax. Once a week for a month should be fine... do they do everything?
I still don't have my Marika! I did finally get the email.. but everybody else go theirs so fast.. feeling neglected! M, you are going to have to build an addition on just to house the Marikawear
I love CyberMonday it's one of my favorite days.. I have to say it wasn't my most productive day workwise, but I did get a lot of xmas shopping done!! Also got the treadmill finally after looking at a million of them... damn things are quite expensive.. I got a mid-priced one and I better use the damn thing. Anybody get any good deals today.. besides the M and her Marika? I got almost a whole new wardrobe to fit my fat @ss.
M, I am loving that you are trying things for Amoena.. they are very smart indeed to have you testdrive the products.. in fact, they should put you on salary in my opinion Poor Bec, this is the reason why holidays are on of the number #1 stress related culprits. Is Boxing Day the day after Xmas?
Ndgirl, glad you had such a great time! I love brussel sprouts, I roast them with a little brown sugar added too. Will be thinking about your niece on Friday.. that sounds painful.. yikes.
Wren, fingers crossed for the little kitty that she doesn't test positive.. is she Boris' sister? Hope DH is on the mend.. that sounded painful too. So glad to hear the eagle was spared.. but the rockets sounded like a lot of fun.
Zils, so proud of your DH and glad to know that you are able to relax. Turkey soup is just chicken soup but with turkey Throw in the carcass, simmer for a few hours into a stock and then we do rice, carrots, celery & onions, but you can put in whatever you fancy.
Fiaranch, I totally agree that stress is a major contributing factor.. truly believe. Sorry to hear this is your second time around. Did you shake your fist and spew at the tv when the Kohls commercial came on? Wouldn't blame you if you did!! I have not yet been fitted and honestly the more time that goes by the least likely that I'll go do it. I have to make up my mind what I am going to do because if I do get fitted and insurance kicks in to pay for it, I might not be allowed to get recon..which I am still up in the air about, although I really don't think I am going to.
Here is the foobmoire link!

I love the 'Dear Scientists, stop playing with your dicks' post haha!!
Joe's doing better.. he threw it out late on Friday and today is finally feeling better. He didn't drive me crazy at all, which I was expecting. Thank you for all the well wishes.
The tree still only has lights on it.. might just stay that way too!0 -
Bobo, You know I would happily do that for you, but I haven't any idea of sizes for you, or what colors you like for the trim. The time it would take you to send me all your details, you could have gone to Marika.com clicked on clearance, and ordered a jacket and a couple of pairs of pants before the sale finishes,
Oooh I am fuming now, is this the same brother who had you stripping bloody knee drains at "sparrows fart" in the morning?
He needs a good slap, Bobo. How hard is it to take care of Bobo for you for a f'ing weekend? It is stories like this that make me so glad I am an only child! If this is a different brother, i apologize!
Now, just thinking about Bobo being alone, will it really be that much more time than a normal busy day in your house, when you're all out? Just wondering,,,
Just thinking that it may be a good thing to have DLLP going home to feed him. There is only so much visiting that you can stand in Hospital, well that's me anyway.
I am sure you've got all your stuff together. I'll be interested to see if you don't use most of it.
At least your meal sounds wonderful! I am so glad you're eating well!
Thinking about you, and the countdown, are you over the fever and sore throat? M x0 -
lol.. sparrows fart. Hmm.. now you have me wondering.. I thought she only had 1 brother.
We have a bit of a busy week... M.. any thoughts of what type of havoc we can bring during the hospital stay? Also, what would be the recommended ensemble for smuggling beer into the hospital. I am going to be nice and quiet at Z's MO appt, but I fear our Bobogirl will be pretty hyper by that time.
Bobogirl, when is your pre-op? I wish you had said something sooner, I would have had some Marika sent to you!!
Harley has been sitting and staring at the blinking lights on the tree for the last 20 minutes.. luckily neither of these cats has any inclination to climb the tree. Had that problem a lot in the past.. however, it is amusing when they get sap on their paws.0 -
Hi ldesim, just noticed your post as I was passing the computer on my way for a Tshirt to put on. It has been the typical Super-hot Day here. The temperature a couple of hours ago was 39.8c. A cool change rolled in and it is now 20c and dropping, and threatening to rain.
I haven't thought about what havoc we can bring during the Hospital stay, but I am in, for whatever is going!
How about smuggling beer in take out cups? I have been in Hospitals over here that give you a wine list with your meals.
"Sparrows Fart!" isn't that a great early morning description! I had a Father in law who always said that. I only remembered it when I was thinking about Bobo getting orders from her Brother to strip those knee drains really early. You may be right about just one Brother, I didn't want to be scathing about the wrong brother if there was another.
Just like you with your cats, I was watching Dex earlier, just sitting quietly looking out the window while the mowing guy was doing his thing, outside with the tractor. I thought it strange that Dex wasn't barking at him, but Colin reminded me about the Gumnuts that get thrown out from the blades and how Dex is scared of getting hit by them.
How is Joe doing? M x0 -
gB, I'm a 10-12 in most (inexpensive) clothing. What size Marika pants do you think I should order? I'm getting M to L in most things. Do you think the L would be big enough in pants? I would probably get L or XL in a top. Sometimes I can wear M, but my ribs are pretty big (thanks to baby #1 who had her head wedged in there and stretched them).
Ariom, What's the brand and size of your weighted foam foob? I'm wearing a 6 in a silicone Naturawear. I'm due for a new foob in March and I'm considering the weighted foam. I made a microbead foob, but it tends to ride up without weight.0 -
Hi Wrenn, The weighted foam form I have is Amoena. We don't have the range of different brands that you have over there. I do like Amoena and their after sales service is excellent.
I got a size 9 in the foam, but that was because I wear it in a sports bra that squishes it down a bit. I mainly wear an 8 in my silicone, but I have a 7 in one that works better in a couple of my Mx bras.
They don't suggest that the foam replaces a silicone Prosthesis or that it can be used as an every day foob. I think if you washed and wore it too often, it would start to break down. They are much cheaper than a silicone. I just did a search and found them at breastfomshopping.com for$48.00 US.
The Marika pants are long in the leg. I am quite tall but the 32in inseam is too long for me in some of them, indicating that the inseam changes with the different styles. The pants are more forgiving than the tops. I have large and extra large in the pants, but the large in the long pants is the right size for me, where the extra large is better in the capris.
I just remembered, I read somewhere that someone had used fishing weights in a home made foob for weight. I think if you just put it in, it would drop to the bottom. The weight in the foam foob is attached hard into the centre, so I think you'd need a little pillow with the weight sewn into it, and attach it to the fabric. Maybe worth looking at for your home made micro beads. M x0 -
ldesim , Yes I hiss at all of the Kohl' s commercials now LOL. Depending on your insurance they may pay for professional fittings and surgery so check that out. I finally figured out yesterday why I am probably just going flat . I tried to wear foobs (the ones I got from Mary) under a Geni camisole. The first thing that happens is that one of the cats jumps on my chest and starts kneading, then the other cat comes over and starts batting them around. The things are just to damn PERKY !! I was only a 36 B however at 55 gravity had begun to take over. Not as bad as my 80 year old mother (she now refers to her breasts as her hanging baskets ) . So if I do decide to get fitted, I don't know what the reaction will be when I ask "do you carry anything with a bit of sag built in"?
M, OMG your Foobmoire cracks me up I am envious of your organizational skills as well . I will get organized one day but its a slow process !!!
Wren, about the Markia sizing M is correct the sizing runs 1 to 2 sizes smaller in my opinion. If you have a TJ Max store near you go there and try a few things on before you order on line, Had I not done this I definitely would have bought everything too small.
grammaB, I do like the extra income when I can sell some of my excess on EBAY but the listing process is exhausting. I am trying to get back into some type of routine since surgery. My house is a wreck, my EBAY listing has ceased and it seems like my life now evolves around doctor appointments, checking Zulily's new items, Marika site and this site (however at least coming to this site is free ) LOL
bobogirl, I highly doubt you are a raggedy mess !! Cut yourself some slack, right now it should be all about you !! I went out and bought several items before surgery that I ended up not using . Now after surgery I am finding my tastes in clothes have changed (I never wore scarves before, and I have this new Marika addiction) . I don't know if my taste now is a temporary , just like I can't decide if I really want to wear foobs. Also I start taking this Tamox this Sunday so who knows what my mood will be . I have told my DH that he is just going to have to "treat me like an Alcoholic's Anonymous meeting" (take what you need and leave the rest) on a daily basis. As I have no idea "which personality" will show up each day. He just laughs and says well ok but would you just sign this paper that says last week you agreed to the beef tenderloin for Christmas !!!
Have a great day all............. Off to Zulily land for an hour or so !!!0 -
I've been a bad girl on Zulily I have free shipping all day if anybody nds anything!0 -
Tamox isn't bad. More weepy and hot flashes. Taking Effexor too and that seems to help. Who knows how much is the meds or just us adjusting.
Saw OB. She recommends a baseline uterine scan, a low carb diet and PT for pelvic muscles.0 -
Hair update.
About an inch long. Laying over. Mostly silver/gray/white. Feel like Jamie Lee Curtis.
I know this sounds crazy but my left eyebrow and left temple feel bushy or wavy. That's my healthy side. My right side feels smooth. Think I can start a new trend?
However my underarms are just the opposite. The right side grows more even during chemo and now rads!0 -
Two black labs followed me home. I picked the female up on the road. Her male companion was already on the farm. Little thin but very sweet.
I would love to keep her but they are obviously a pair. I think I've seen them before on the farm a long time ago.
So the farm owner put them in a stall and is trying to find their owner. It would be an awesome present but my husband wouldn't be happy. The kids would.0 -
Fiaranch, omg you crack me up... I am peeing myself over the cats batting and kneading your new bosom. It appears you get your sense of humor from your mom... hanging baskets is the perfect description!!!! My grandmother will be 101 in a few days and hers drag on the ground now Luckily, I did not inherit the ginormous bosoms of my grandmothers or mother.... although if they had been larger maybe the remaining one would droop down enough that it wouldn't be as obvious that I am lopsided.. who knows. I'm loving the built in sag feature.. perhaps between the lot of us, we can design the perfect sagwear.
We all understand the life revolving around doctor's appts.. funny thing is.. once it stops or simmers down.. you feel a bit lost!
I think that is a geat t-shirt slogo!!! "treat me like an Alcoholic's Anonymous meeting" omg Fiaranch, where do you come up with these things!
hahah poor Dex with his mangy haircut (wheres the picture!) staring woefully outside in fear of the gumnuts. I had to look them up, they must do some real damage to the lawn mower.
I don't think any of the Marika is going to fit me from the sounds of it... never really looked at the inseam because stuff is usually long on me.. even Petites (only 5' 1/2"). I am going to look a treat in my two tight tops and bottoms that are a foot too long
Zils, I agree... it's hard to know what to blame on what... we all know the biggest blame is the F'ing BC. What the heck? You're the first for growing pit hair during chemo and radiation. I had nothing there.. but it came back fast and furious when finished!
Congrats on the inch long!!! Is it all spiky haha.. Joe was calling me miser.. after Heat Miser... I was so tempted to dye it orange. Does yours feel different? Mine is like a diff texture.. maybe a bit coarser than it was and of course it's weirdly wavy and at times very curly. I colored mine in October, so have no idea if it's still all silver/white.
Black labs are gorgeous.. are they pups? Tell hubby it's good security to have and labs are supposed to be fantastic with kids.0 -
Not pups. Female is beginning to have some gray on muzzle. Assume brother and sister.0 -
Somewhere online I saw an ad for a droopy foob. Evidently we're not the only ones who would like them to match in terms of perkiness. Medicare paid for my first one and I can get a new one every 2 years.
Flaranch, We do have TJ Max here and I will definitely go try on. My last yoga pants were from JC Penney, but when I looked everything had a bright stripe up the side or was capri length. I looked online, but they didn't really have them in stock.
I'm 5'2" (down from 5'4") and have to hem petites. I've threatened to keep all the pieces I cut off and make a patchwork purse out of them. That way it would match everything in my wardrobe.
M - I looked at the box again and my silicone is an Amoena 6R, so perhaps I'll order that in the foam. $48 is almost what the bras cost, so I could pay that myself. I have a sore muscle in my back that is crossed by my bra and I think perhaps the weight contributes to the pain.0 -
Okay. Trying to answer all Qs. YES it's the same brother! It's just that I worry that Bobo will be alone for more than 12 hours. If there are any sort of complications, DLLP won't be able to leave. Nope, can't ask the farm people to take him -- they have enough on their hands. Fever is gone.
Well, my Marika came in and it is ALL too small and uncomfortable! I am VERY pissed! I think it is not returnable, it is from Zulily. I followed all the sizing charts, and if anything I'm even smaller than that since I dropped some weight lately. I am very upset! I really wanted some nice marika wear to go to physical therapy! Zulily experts, please advise. Not that I will have any ability to return anyway, since I'm having sx in two days. So unhappy with you, Marika! F0ck. I should have just bought one expensive EF sweatsuit.
I am in a bad mood because of my stupid boss. I have really had it with him. Up to my neck. So since I am in a bad mood I will sign off. But love the story about the matching labs! Really hoping you can keep them. Good Christmas present.0 -
Oh, p.s., Z, I loved the hair update! Your new hair sounds so pretty! Are you going to get a little pixie cut?0 -
I reply to myself. Crying right now because I don't have a nice Marika outfit to wear home from the hospital. And because I need to work on the dolly I am making for our Princess for Christmas tonight, but I can't because I have to grade essays, and I am running out of time to finish it.0 -
You'll be able to work on the dolly after surgery. It just may take way longer. I was folding laundry after the first week but it took me all day.
Is it just the jacket that's too small? It should work after surgery.
What about a neighbor to walk bobo after school?
Hair not long enough for anything. Dogs went home. Belonged down the road. D@mnit. Like I need anything else. Boy almost asleep and baby had fever. Hope it's just teeth. She's finally getting the rest of her bottom teeth in.0 -
I wore my button front pjs home.0 -
Ariom, it is18°F (-7.8°C) right now about 4PM. Colder than that when I got up. Light dusting of snow on the ground. The wind makes that 18° feel something like -20° with the wind chill factor. Had to run some errands so really had to bundle up to go out. What I hate is they overheat the inside of buildings, so I am sweating by the time I finish shopping. Then step back out into the cold.
Oh man, if the Marika inseam is 32 on the long pants, I'm going to be dusting the floor with them! The leggins were ankle length and only have received capris and shorts so far.
Wren, I'm about the same size as you. I got M leggings and capris in my first order and they fit fine. The leggings are a tiny bit snug but they feel really good on. I have a L leggins coming so I will be able to compare the fit. The M tops were snug, one to the point I can't really wear it, but the other 2 I can wear. The 2 jackets in M were fine. I have since ordered a L long sleeved hooded top and it is much better. I just got the shorts in M and they fit fine too. I guess it kind of depends on how one's body is shaped that determine the fit. I agree the tops are really on the small side.
ldesim, is weather an issue there? I was using the FedEx tracking to see where my shipments are and there was a note in red across the top that says: "A winter storm is causing delays and disruptions in the Northwestern US." Could that be what has slowed your shipment down? Where do your zulily orders usually ship from? Mine seem to originate in NV or SoCA, then go through Salt Lake or Denver then to me.
Posting as I need to step away for a bit. Will be back to finish catching up.
Hugs to all!0 -
Just managed to get on, the internet was down, and everything in the house with a digital clock was flashing this morning.
Fieranch, I love the cat story! I am glad it wasn't silicon they were pawing.
I too, just haven't got the impetus to get onto Ebay again. I have had a load of Marika stuff I bought at the beginning of my addiction which was too small for me. (I'm sorry everyone has had sizing issues, I did try to let you know.) I just can't get the motivation to list it, and I am lucky, because Colin does all the computer side. I just have to take the pics, write the blurb and do the wrapping and posting. Even so, I am avoiding!
Your humor cracks me up too! I wish you could see some of gramwe's humor about F'ing Femara! She's so funny!
ldesim, I am so glad I didn't inherit my Mother's huge boobies, my rogue "D" is bad enough. My silicone ones are the ones shaped like a ski jump, so it does have some "droop" I think from memory there are 3 different levels of "perky"!
I haven't taken a picture of poor, manky Dex. Barry was very concerned for him when he saw the mess I'd made. It is like pulling teeth trying to get Colin to put the photos on here for me. I am to techno-challenged to do it myself.
Bobo, what size Marika did you buy? Don't get yourself all stressed about the dolly, it will get done, even if it has to be after the Hospital.
Try to not let the Boss get to you, you have much more important stuff to do right now than waste energy on him. I am sorry that everything is getting on top of you. Just try to stay focused, there is only so much you can do in these few days. It will all fall into place.
Wren, that foob sounds like it may just be the ticket for you, but I wouldn't waste my insurance on it if you can get something of more value on insurance. If you have a fitter nearby, it may be worthwhile trying one on just to be sure. Mine cost double the amount of that one I sent you the link for, but I am happy with it.
Zills, you have hair the same color as me!
You must have gotten a look in the Baby's mouth, so glad it is teeth coming in, it will soon be all done. Sorry to hear about the dogs going home, but perhaps not what you need right now!
Pouring rain and I have to go to the post office...catch you all later..M x0
