Good morning Ruby i too wish i had been in the land of nod lol. How are you today. Good i hope. Have you any plans for this that seems to be a very Tuesday cold Tuesday here. Have a great day too. Love Tricia. xxx
Morning Judy, it could be the steroids! When I was on them, my appetite went crazy and if I wanted to eat something, it had to be there and then, NO delay! I am intrigued as to what career you had getting up at 4.45am - only say if your wish to! John Lennon had a famous saying along the lines of, “life is what’s happening when you’re busy making plans.” Similar to you, I finished working in a local school (I loved it but I had constant exhaustion and fatigue which was getting worse) and my partner had taken early retirement so I handed in my Notice expecting to either maybe move house (near the sea, my Happy Place!), travel, visit my elderly parents more often. Instead, 3 weeks later got told I had Secondary Breast Cancer and a few months after that, Covid hit. Keep being you, you sound a very giving and interesting lady
I did enjoy the walk Ruby, it was in north east Essex countryside and was beautiful. Lovely weather and very well organised. Cream tea to finish! Then out for the ballet. We saw Cinderella and I was blown away! It was so beautiful. Yesterday we went to Southend and it was lovely to be by the sea. I like to walk to the end of the pier and look out at the horizon and see nothing but sea! So quiet day today back down to earth getting housework done, dull but has to be done then can relax x
Morning, everyone, all up bright and early..
Have done few jobs already.
Hope every one is well. me i am old and knackered, that is from the horses mouth, lol.
In fact i do not think, i have retied, work harder now, than ever/
Double the load, the devil makes work for ideal hands, doesn't he just.
Have the best day you can, and make the most f it xxx,
Good luck with your transfusion today Ruby hope it helps a lot. Sending you lots of hugs. love Tricia. xxx
Hello Tricia, the honest answer is that I have been very up and down recently (my symptoms getting worse etc, looking too far ahead and so on...) - however, today IS a good day. blood transfusion at11am today. Plus yesterday the nurse, who did my bloods, read off the screen that Icneeded another blood test tomorrow before re-starting chemo - urgh! No online appts for 3 3 weeks but spoke to themost friendly and chatty receptionist this morning and now have that blood test tomorrow morning. I want to spend as little time at the hospital as possible and last night, it was all getting on topof me. Must have a shower and head out the door for the appt today! Best wishes to you xxxxxxx ️
Morning Ellie well hope you have a rest day planned for today then LOL. Have a lovely day Take care Love Tricia. xxx
Sorry to read that you are having such a hard time lately Ruby hopefully the transfusion will help it all and you can turn it all around. Sending you lots of good wishes., my thoughts will be with you. Love Tricia. xxx
