A Wee Chuckle for the day,


When I was younger I hated going to weddings.

It seemed that all of my aunts and the grandmotherly types used to come up to me, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me,............. 'You're next.'

They stopped that after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.

Hi

I have had a hell of a day. I went and got my blood tests done this morning 7 lots. my urine test came in I have a bad water infection. the doctor gave me some strong tablets. I have to take four, a day for five days.
I get the blood results on friday.

I was suppose to go to the hospital for my tablets this thursday. my son took the day off to take me. then I got a letter this morning telling me to go next Tuesday 21st at 2.40 for blood tests and exam ready for my chemo. I was told I could not have chemo becuase of where the cancer is. so I dont know what has happened? . my son will be on a works course the next week. so will not be able to take. me
I am going to phone my consultant. secretary tomorrow and ask her what is going on ?which appointment am I suppose to go too. ?so I have had one hell of a headache.

Marilyn I liked the party bit, but not the wrapped car in newspaper. bit..

Morning it is very hot here and there seems to be no air really stuffy.

I watched the closing of the games last night. it must be me? as I didnt think much of it the begining was so odd the end bit was OK. but it is about time they got rid of some of these old singers.. I wonder if Paul Macartney has a contract with the government so he gets ask to sing on all these big do's
He must know he is pased it by now.

Now we will get back to normal TV soaps and old films and repeats lol.anyway hope you all had a good weekend.

Morning everyone
Sorry I haven't added for a while but not been on the computer so much as head really bad, but tablets are sorting me out and I am able to sleep OK at the moment.

So sad to read that Rita and Jean are both going through the mill again. I hope your treatments work for both of you and that things improve. sending
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} and best wishes to you both <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Enjoying our garden at last with the better weather, but the grass needs cutting so often and many shrubs need pruning again and so much watering because of the hot sun. Great isn't it.

I have been able to sit out in the garden and read or knit so I am happy.

Hop everyone has a lovely Sunday
Take care

I am wondering how that Grandmother didnt find that body of the little girl. if it had been me I would have taken a look around the house and garden incase the child had had an accident.

so many cases of missing children wind up as being somthing to do with someone in the house..

They have only said they want the boy friend for guestioning. but why did he run for it. if he if inoccent ? makes you wonder.? I have an idea what may have happened. so I will wait and see.

Poor child how must her real father and mother feel.

It has been hot today. I have all my windows opened and the cooler fan going.
well must watch some of the games Tom Daily come on get the gold.
