Good morning all :-)

Sorry to hear about your friend Sylvia <3

My DIL's father suffered the same thing almost 2 years ago now. It was very unexpected as he was, up until then, a fit 'strapping' person with no sign of illness then it suddenly happened while he and his wife were out shopping.
He was only 65 at the time.

Fortunately they managed to save his life but he was unconcious for several weeks and was in and out of hospital after that and was extremely ill for a long time and both he and his family went through a lot of suffering.

He is just now starting to show signs of his 'old self' but still has many lingering health problems to contend with.

Hopefully your friend will not have suffered as an aortic dissection happens very suddenly and there is not usually much time for the person involved to realise what is happening.

May she rest in peace....

My best wishes to you and all her friends and family <3

P.S. - I am sure that 2014 can only get better for you - Try to think positive, even though I know it is very hard for you at the moment.

Dea Xxx <3

Thank you for the lovely breakfast Cynths.

I was a bit late arriving this morning but it really was delicious.

Hope all goes well for you with your Health Trainer.

See you all later,

Ey Up~~~~~


I missed the hash browns, one of my favourites :-(

Got home from work today and there were two pairs of shoes in the porch!

Next, son and girlfriend come downstairs..........they had dropped her car off near to me after work for the MOT (7am finish) and decided to come here for a kip

They never 'really' leave home

:-D <3

Good morning and thanks Gins. :-D



Have been busy being distracted elsewhere and now I really have to take up my duster and get dusting.. :-D


Can't go far anyway - the car is having it's MOT and service this morning........may need a lie down afterwards.... :-D

Dea

Hi Cynthia,

Hope you don't need a lie down after you get the news on the MOT ;-) :-D :-D

Yes - DIL's father's problem was almost 2 years ago now - It happened towards the end of May 2012. - Doesn't time fly ! :-0

Hope you enjoy your dusting ;-) :-D

See you all later,

Our radiators were meant to be getting replaced today.

Only problem was that some stupid person "forgot" to put them on the delivery van :-S

Waiting to hear if they will be done tomorrow :-(

It is pouring with rain here and cold.

Gins when are your windows getting done?

Gee

Gee Report 6 Mar 2014 17:56

Linds

I was contemplating that too.........when?

Mornin~~~~~~

The birds are so loud this morning, they must think its spring!

Kettle is on, selection of toasted bagel's almost ready

Dea

Dea Report 7 Mar 2014 08:02

Good morning all :-)

Thank you Ginns - that was a very nice thought but I REALLY don't like bagels so I will have a cup of your lovely tea and make a start on the cooking. <3

Bacon, eggs (poached, fried or scrambled), sausages, mushrooms, tomatoes, fried bread.........

Porridge, as it's a dark, wet, nasty windy day out there...

Platters of assorted hams and cheeses.

Fresh bread rolls, crackers, toast (with a selection of our favourite spreads)...

Croissants, danish pastries, home made sultana scones with clotted cream and home made strawberry jam.

Assorted fresh fruits, yoghurts and cereals..

Enjoy....................

See you all later,

Dea Xxx

Good morning all.... :-D :-D


I'm like you about Bagels Dea.....I can't see the point in them somehow. I mean, who wants to eat something with a thumping great hole in it? Don't like ring doughnuts either.... :-(


However, the thought was there Gins......so thank you and, at least I've had a lovely coffee...... ;-)



The car was returned to us with the good news that there was nothing wrong with it :-D :-D :-D We will get the bill - presumably for the labour involved, today. It's a chap from you-know-where who has his own garage.


It's pouring down here....but supposed to be drier this afternoon - hope so as I have a load of washing to do.


I've had someone come and see about replacing my kitchen floor but am waiting for an estimate. The cost will be the over riding factor as to whether it IS actually replaced or not. :-S


Ah well, must stop wittering.......quick browse and then off I go...~~

Oh well, - Ancestry have finally done what they have been threatening for a very long time i.e. they have taken away the 'old search' facility !

Looks like I will be saving myself quite a lot of money soon :-0 :-S

I REALLY don't like it but I have until 21st June to decide but it looks like I will be cancelling my membership then and just using FMP in the future. :-(

I did like to have them both as each has it's different extra sections of information but I think I have already made my decision so it is their loss :-(

I wonder how many other people will feel the same ?

Linda Report 7 Mar 2014 19:57

Have spent the day doing housework :-(

Two lots of washing done and at least another two to be done. I think it multiplies :-(

And no chance of getting it out to dry. we have had sun. rain. hailstones/snow and then more rain and more sun :-S

Made a start on clearing out wardrobes will finish tomorrow.

I do love a good old clear out :-D

Cynthia you would be proud of me ;-)

Plan a night sitting on my b**

Good morning all...... :-D


Looks like I had better get the kettle on and some bacon cooking. Can't have our Dea going hungry ;-)


There are some mushrooms, tomatoes and hash browns to go with it Dea and I've put out some crumpets for Gins.


I looked at Ancestry yesterday. Didn't like it at first but sort of got a bit used to it. I think it will be a case of practice makes perfect Dea. When anything is new, I tend to play about and experiment with it for a while. Trouble is, I get it sorted and then forget what I did.... :-D :-D


Sylvs.......you sound as though you don't know if you are coming or going. It's going to be so hard for your friend, especially as it isn't that long since she lost her husband. Stay strong.


I hope it clears up weatherwise here soon. I'd forgotten I'd brought my friends bedding back here to wash and iron.......I'd prefer to dry everything outside.


Hey ho.......... :-D
