morning folks hope all is well

Good afternoon. Lois is ok so vet thinks she is just going to be prone to flare ups from time to time.She decided to try and pick a fight with a Rottweiler and then with a dogue de Bordeaux in the waiting room.Both were twice her size.
Hope Sandie is ok?

Hi ladies~~

I'm not too bad thanks.. Generally fine.
Moan.. I do have very sore throat.. I've always been prone to that, grown to live with it now.
Just reading the consent form I signed for my op .. the risks were, Infection, Bleeding, Neuro vascular injury, Failure of op ,Reoccurance, Swelling of elbow , Sensitive scar.
Well, the scar is a bit sensitive if I lean on it, to be expected I suppose.. OK otherwise, but absolutely no difference my fingers or palm what so ever.:((
Post op apt is 27th May..6 weeks after the op.
Moan over.. :-)
Won't be having another op unless it is absolutely essential

Glad Lois is better today.. what a minx having a go at a Rottwieler.. sorry but I have to smile at that.lol

Pleased your kitchen is nearly straight Maz.. one of the worst rooms to have to redo !! :-(
Spag Bol for tea.. better make a start ~~~~

morning all its dry here and breezy going to put some washing out lol

evening all. put washing out this morning,rained so brought it in. Sun came out so pegged it out again. Poured down lol. Put it on the radiators.Tea time sun was shining brightly again. Wish it would make it's mind up.
Sorry to hear that there isn't any improvement in your hand yet Sandie.
How are you finding the new kitchen etc Maz? are you pleased with things?

morning I am pleased with the kitchen though I am changing things regularly to put stuff away .
I left my washing out yetserday by the time i had finished last night it was dry and i had put some out overnight which has dried now too

Been quite a nice day here, tho we did have rain, hubby had got the clothes in just before as he saw the black clouds looming.
He's a jem,...... I was lying down resting my arm.. cos it is now aching from my elbow right into my back.

I will never voluntary have another op. That was my first and my last !

It's not just my fingers now.. it's right up past my shoulder and into my back that painful and even into the back of my hand.
I just don't know how to sleep comfortably any more.
Grizzle over..

Sandie.xx

morning ladies Sandie maybe you should get your arm looked at again it does not sound as if its worked pain is wearing makes you tired .Big hugs

Hi ladies~~

Hubby has spent all afternoon repairing my next door neighbours PC.
He loves the challenge , and the satisfaction when he solves it.

Thanks for you thoughts Maz..re my arm.. I have a post Op check on the 27th.
My consent form showed the Op could be a failure, but not the pain in my upper arm.. I guess it's the way I'm sleeping.
But I am no pushover and will be discussing fully on the 27th. ;-)
My other grizzle will be about the pre Op advice notes they gave me...on discharge.. Don't worry I am fully armed in what to say , lol no pun intended.

EB Hope 'little' Lois is better and leaving the Rottweilers alone :-)

Sandie.xx


Who is this prince then Maz ;-)
PM me it you want to answer.. don't put such Heraldic personal thing on the boards <3

morning lol Sandie My frog is a wonderful companion , i am in no rush to get to the prince stage lol but maybe one day !!
I am glad you have a check up soon Sandie on your arm thats the day we break up for half term
It is very dark and grey here there is an inspection of the work done here by the council today as it was them who helped me financially .there are a couple of things to raise the fan in the bathroom seems to struggle getting the moisture out at times

Hi~~~
Lol Maz.. as long as you are happy....Frog can become a Prince maybe a King sometime ;-)

We have an air conditioning fan called a 'lofty' in the hall area. which clears the downstairs rooms well.. we have a dormer bungalow.
When we had the bathroom redone.. it's now all tiled, by hubby,I love it,but no bath.. the 'lofty fan' is great , tho I do give the bathroom walls with a microfibre cloth every time some one showers...which is very often :) but it does reduce the condensation every where.

Hope Lois is improving daily , EB

afternoon ,I am happy Sandie life is too short to be alone but i do like my own space too so we have the best of both worlds own homes out at weekends mainly saturdays ,and holiday time and thats it lol

Maz~~ Good on you girl.

Live your life your way you want :-)

Hope that kitten isn't climbing the curtains lol

Must pop out now cos my elderly neighbour walks her dog at about this time, I like to keep an eye on her , cos she isn't too good on her feet.
She's a lovely person , but very stubborn ...she will not let any one walk the dog.. yet the dog is good as gold and she answers to me when we are walking.

Hi Paula~~
Hope you and yours are well :)

Sandie.x

afternoon late again lol

Hi~~~~

Lol.. you are late today Maz.

I was going to post earlier, tho I've done my clicking.

I'm like a cat that's got the cream..................
Son has got a job in his chosen career IT as a Web Designer, it's about 20 miles away, he's been job hunting since he graduated, but ticking over with his As*a job, and free board and lodge.

I'm more excited than he is. I've nearly told the world now from Perse in NZ to sister in US.. Oh I've Jackie in in Oz and Daph in China to speak to also...you'll think I'm nuts...No comments please.
Phew.. you pay to put you children thro Uni to get a good education,..... I do not begrudge a penny of it..then with the job situation as it is, qualified or not they struggle to get a job.

Hope 'little' Lois is not chewing your slippers Paula , that was one of my pups favourite tricks !!

HI, just been busy, busy, busy while some church friends are on holiday, I have been standing in with some of the jobs they usually do.
Had so much on my mind yesterday that I accidently took 2 metformin tablets instead of 1.Had to ring N.H.S. direct for advice.
Just got a letter telling me I am due to go for a mammagram. :>(
I think the problem with your arm Sandie might be because of the way you tend to hold it or alternatively because of keeping it less mobile. Perhaps at your follow up they will suggest physio if it doesn't improve by then.
Lois is much better thanks.xxxx
Love to you both xxx

Hi again~

Strangley.. Paula but my arm is mostly fine in the day, I just can't sleep comfortably on it. It's brill just now,fingers no different, just an inconvience when my hands are warm,but have to wear gloves when I go out.

I have my questions already listed for my post op apt on the 27th:)
Sandie.x

Morning all
I write lists too Sandie the building is being inspected again today the builder disagrees with the list of jobs outstanding .the only thing I am concerned about is the extracter fan in shower whichs seems not to be efficient and is clogged up with seeds from outside

evening all.

morning ladies have a lovely day
