Awake and up all night

Hi there Annette.

Now although we have separate bank accounts, we never quibble over money and just class it all as a community chest for either of us to dip into.  As my fella can't get out much yet, I'm happy to do most of the shopping and he gives me his card to draw from if I want.  I then buy a load of treats we both enjoy.  The treat tin's a free for all but it's usually me with my hands in it as his appetite's not back up to scratch yet.  I'll be glad when he does start eating more, but he's trying his best, bless him.

Are you back doing the jigsaws since getting home?  The first thing I thought when seeing your post was Edinburgh rock.  That's cos every time we went on holiday, we'd return with boxes of it.  Ginger has always been my favourite!

Love Gill xxx

Thank you, Gill and Annette, I’m definitely going to give myself time to think about it all. 

I’m sorry you got treated that way Annette that’s awful.

hope you both have a lovely day.

Thank you Chloe and I hope you have a lovely day too.  Sunny again.

Aye, Annette's neighbour doesn't sound too savoury but some people, when told of a cancer diagnosis, tend to look at their own mortality.  Their reaction can be extreme.  Yes, give yourself plenty of time to mull over when to say anything at work and I'm sure it'll be fine.  Sending hugs xxx

Spoke too soon again... I think my hair is starting to fall out

Oh crikey Stevie, not good but I suppose you expected it?  Have you ever shaved it down to the wood and would you consider doing so if it does fall out?  I know a couple who've shaved it all off rather than waiting. xxx

I used to shave it grade 1 when I was a lot younger, until I was told I was getting too old for it lol... I guess the better head of hair took the attention away from how old my face was getting

Well I've no idea of your age but I wouldn't put you above mid twenties, so you're no age if I'm correct.  The two I mentioned are my cousins, both late fifties, and they look absolutely fine.  Neither sported your abundant locks but one looked a bit younger after taking the shaver to his head.  But hey, it might not happen? xx

Lol... I'm 48 next month but I like your flattery... 45 in my profile pic though

Good God you look nowhere near!  I'd ask you to pass on your secret but I think I'm too far gone now.  Oh, I know what it must be...the broccoli.  Serves me right for not eating it.  Are you in Ireland?  I just assumed so as all your running exploits mentioned Irish places.  It's somewhere I've always wanted to visit as it looks absolutely amazing. xxx

Yip... grew up in Newcastle Co.Down... at the feet of the beautiful Mourne mountains
