Hi Jeni, I hope you are coping with the treatment love, I know that you have been suffering with bad side affects. Stay strong sweetheart <3 <3 <3

Sending love and prayers to Rita as well. <3 <3 <3

I dont know what is happening to this site tonight. It stated earlier that my post had not been sent, and when I checked just now, it had been.
Oh boy, more gremlins in the works I suppose.

I have been thinking of Pauline today, so I will send her my <3 <3 <3 as well.

Going to get ready for bed now, so I will say goodnight god bless.

A Wee Chuckle for the day

Little Billy wanted £100 badly and prayed for two weeks but nothing happened.

Then he decided to write God a letter requesting the £100.

When the postal authorities received the letter addressed to God, UK, they decided to send it to the Prime Minister.

The Prime Minister was so impressed, touched, and amused that he instructed his secretary to send Billy a £5.00 notel.

The Prime Minister thought this would appear to be a lot of money to a little boy.

Billy was delighted with the £5.00 and sat down to write a thank you note to God, which read:

Dear God,
Thank you very much for sending the money, however, I noticed that for some reason you had to send it through Downing Street and, as usual, those crooks deducted £95.00.

Thanks,
Billy

Morning All !

Another horrible morning :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P Glad I have a dinghy in the garage ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)

Jean, It's not how quick the weeks pass......it's how quick the years pass. :-( :-( :-( :-(
It's better not to think too hard about it or we would be miserable all the time.
Coffee and a Bacon roll will do nicely.
Hope you're feeling well.

Huia,....5am.....I usually surface not long after that. I enjoy the quiet time before the mayhem of the day begins.
:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

Maddie, Stay strong. It hurts like hell . Talk about it to those that know you and ease the pain a bit.

Loads of wee silly jobs completed yesterday. Clears the decks a bit for more action. ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)

Have a good day ya all !

Keep well , keep safe , keep smiling :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Stephen, surely you dont expect me to be on here at 5 a.m.? In fact, I didnt get up until 9 as I didnt sleep well last night. :-\ (looks tired to me rather than bored).

Good evening everyone. From a very dark, cold and wet London Town.

Hope Jean and Rita are progressing daily. Keep your spirits up girls. Onwards and upwards is the only way.

I think someone said Pauline is unwell, keep well soon hinney.

Well, my absence has been because I too had bad news. My dear friend died a few months back, and now another friend has just weeks to live. Very sad. Both had young families. I just dont know what to say to be honest.

One a brighter note, I have finally been properly discharged from Hospital, and will not need to go back there. I am well pleased, and also very relieved.

Keep well and warm everyone. The gas and electric are going up soon!!!!!

Take care.
:-)

A Wee Chuckle for the day

A student comes to a young professor's office after hours.

She glances down the hall, closes his door, and kneels pleadingly."I would do anything to pass this exam," she says.

She leans closer to him, flips back her hair, and gazes meaningfully into his eyes. "I mean," she whispers, "I would do anything''..

."He returns her gaze, "Anything?"

"Anything." was her reply

His voice softens, "Anything?

""Anything," she repeats again.

His voice turns to a whisper..................... "Would you ... study?"

A Wee Chuckle for the day

Do you believe in life after death?" the boss asked one of his employees.

"Yes, sir," the clerk replied.

"That's good," the boss said.

"After you left early yesterday to go to your grandmother's funeral, she stopped in to see you."

Thank goodness, Rita and Jean have popped in to see us. It's such a relief to know that you are both o.k, even though you are both suffering from the side affects of the chemo.
Take care girls, <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 ((((((((( GENTLE HUGS )))))))) <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Blimey Stephen, ICE on the car, brrrr it's cold enough here, but at least we haven't got any ice,(just yet)

Does anyone know if Marilyn is orft on her travels again, only she hasn't been on for a few days?

Linda is also on the missing list. Perhaps she is cuddling up to baby to keep him warm.

Ooh while I remember it, we have a new baby girl due in February. Another great grandaughter.
Roly is feeling overrun with all the girls. We only have three grandsons, and 11 grandaughters.lol

Bye for now folks, luv Mo
