Late night question to help put you to sleep:-

* How aware is a fish that it swims in water?

Cogitate on this for a second or three! Sleep well. Don't let the bed bugs bite.

Morning all
What a damp miserable morning it is here. Think it rained all night. I know the gardens need it, but I don't !!!
Finished another book yesterday and did a little knitting.
Need to do a little housework while hubby is at work. He is off tomorrow for 4 days. Have dinner arranged at our eldest daughters on Saturday and a concert at Wellington College on Monday evening.

So 2 days to do as we please. Or nothing at all if we please too.

Have a good day. Hope Rita gets a Dr to visit and is feeling a little better too. Is your tooth OK Shelly? And have you seen the dentist yet Stephen?

Linda :o) XxX

Hello everyone, hope you all enjoyed a peaceful night.
Rita, I do hope you will be phoning your GP again and arrange a visit to you, if he couldn't gain access yesterday he should have phoned you.

Breakfast on hotplate

Cereal, porridge or fruit.
Bacon, eggs, sausage, mushrooms.
Toast, hot rolls or crumpets.

Tea, coffee or juice.

Help yourselves.

Hope everyone who has been feeling ill is now starting to feel better.

Take care and stay safe.
Jean xx

Morning everyone,
Bacon, eggs sausage and mushroom please!
Dermot I think fish are very aware they swim in water because if you take them out of water they go funny. A fish out of water isn't said for nothing.
Have a nice day everyone x

I phoned the doctor a little while ago as I am worse today my breathing is bad and I have pains in my back think it is my kidney I also had two fainting spells last night. I managed to get up and dressed but what an effort.
The recepionist said she was sorry I was not put in the doctors book she said I will do it for today. cough and cold. I said I am bubbling in my chest badly and had two fainting spells last night and my kidney is affected and I have cancer in that.along with the cough and a constand headache.
The doctor has a surgery this morning but will come after that which will be about 2 oclock.
I just checked my hospital bag. as I may go into hospital I hope not. ? but they just might send me .

Flaming heck, I hope the doctor does go and see our Rita. She needs a thorough check over, to get her back on the road to recovery. This being unwell has dragged on for far to long, and is starting to cause Rita depression. Bless you Rita, lets hope that a course of ant-biotics can put you right, but as Marilyn said, if it means a short hospital stay then so be it. You have not been well for some time now, and we want you back to your good self again.

Thanks for the p.m Shelly, will chase it up as soon as I finish here.

Maddie didn't M+S have any sandals that you liked. I like their Footglove shoes and sandals, they are sooo comfortable.

Did you manage to get out and about Marilyn. I have not left the house today, it's rather chilly and blowing a gale out there.

The doctor came to see me this morning he said he was sorry he had not come yesterday but they had not told him at the other surgery.

He said he was shocked at the constriction in my breathing I have the start of plueursiy, he said I must have been shocked when I had the bad turn last night,
He wrote out a perscription for me of antibiotics and some tablets to stop my giddness hopefully. ?
He said I will take it to the chemist for you and get them to deleiver it.
He knew the estate manger would not.take it and collect. they all seem to know what she is like.

I said I am due to go down one steriod tomorrow as the blood test came back normal. no I must stay at what I am on 6 it is to dangerous for me to go down one while my lungs are so bad..
I can hear them as I sit and type it is quiet frightening.
If I dont feel any different in the next few days I am to phone the surgery and ask for a call out.

so I will have to wait and see what happens after I start taking the talets.

Rita
I hope you have the medication by now and have started taking it. If you feel any worse please get straight back on to the Drs, don't wait.

Marilyn you know the e-mail of the spider you sent yesterday, I got it again in the evening from an elderly friend who lives in Sutton Coldfield. No connection to any of us on here as far as I know. Odd eh?

Ironing all cleared. Cloakroom totally prepared now ready to go to the DIY tomorrow with hubby. Started a new book and did some more knitting earlier too. Restful day eh!!!

Enjoy the evening everyone

My friend across the lawn is collecting them for me in the morning. I told you I need help from above. someone has it in for me.?

My little Great Grandson Ryan was given a MRI today he lay listening to Michael Jackson muisc. his Mum said he was so good. he has an adult bladder needs an operation so they will move him tomorrow to St Thomas hospital in London to see what they can do. ? in the mean time he has a tube in so he can wee and my Granddaughter has to empty it. It is the same hospital his sister goes to for her tummy operations..
