AMAZING SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES

1. IF YOU'RE CHOKING ON AN ICE CUBE, SIMPLY POUR A CUP OF BOILING WATER DOWN YOUR THROAT. PRESTO! THE BLOCKAGE WILL INSTANTLY REMOVE ITSELF.

2. AVOID CUTTING YOURSELF WHEN SLICING VEGETABLES BY GETTING SOMEONE ELSE TO HOLD THE VEGETABLES WHILE YOU CHOP.

3. AVOID ARGUMENTS WITH THE FEMALES ABOUT LIFTING THE TOILET SEAT BY USING THE SINK.

4. FOR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE SUFFERERS ~ SIMPLY CUT YOURSELF AND BLEED FOR A FEW MINUTES, THUS REDUCING THE PRESSURE ON YOUR VEINS. REMEMBER TO USE A TIMER.

5. A MOUSE TRAP PLACED ON TOP OF YOUR ALARM CLOCK WILL PREVENT YOU FROM ROLLING OVER AND GOING BACK TO SLEEP AFTER YOU HIT THE SNOOZE BUTTON.

6. IF YOU HAVE A BAD COUGH, TAKE A LARGE DOSE OF LAXATIVES. THEN YOU'LL BE AFRAID TO COUGH.

7. YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.

8. REMEMBER - EVERYONE SEEMS NORMAL UNTIL YOU GET TO KNOW THEM.

9. IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU'VE GOT AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.

DAILY THOUGHT:
SOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE SLINKIES - NOT REALLY GOOD FOR ANYTHING BUT THEY BRING A SMILE TO YOUR FACE WHEN PUSHED DOWN THE STAIRS.

Feeling good at the moment.
Went to the hospital this morning, went by bus.

It is all Ok apparently, it was a rodent ulcer but they took a clear 1.5cm area round it so not likely to spread. I saw one of the consultant's team, she was very nice if running 40 minutes late (as they do!!). I have to go back in 6 months to check that the scar is flattening, apparently it takes 18 months altogether. but I can lift (and hoover) again now. (Hmmm)

Went on into town shopping, bought three T shirts/3/4 sleeve tops half price in M&S, and a waterproof pink jacket , plus a new pair of slippers and a tub of body butter with Vit E (Body Shop). Then had lunch out, I had chile and chips and a glass of wine. (definitely not good for the diet!!

And actually have had a bra on all day so far!

doesn't take much to please me!!!

Hi Ann - glad you had good holiday and got the OK from hospital. I'm still wearing the M&S vest-bra tops! Still find some lifting uncomfortable and only hoover if necessary! Sure everyone now having a good laugh! Jx

J Sometimes I wear the vest, sometimes a soft bra stretchy top, sometimes indoors only, nothing. Didn't last all day with the bra!!
