Even having a laugh, that is a normal life, and we all have it.
If you have a special topic please start a new thread so people that wish to see it can, and can comment.
Good morning Stella, I am fine with my treatment. Thanks for asking. We got the snow today. The roads are not great at all and our School closed today, so the kids have an extra day holiday. Glad I don’t need to be anywhere for the next few days. Cosy time for my furry little companion and myself . It was great that Eddie came to visit after dropping his Aunties off at their home. We had a good old catch up after dinner. Wishing everyone a good week and some laughter along the way.

Morning Sharon, that's wonderful news, the treatments working so well, I'm so happy for you, and the nausea is fading too, more good news, I found exercise helped me with my fatigue, it took a few weeks to see results but it was so worth it, and best wishes for the 14th.
Thank you, and your absolutely right, mum and babies health are what matters most and they make you happy long before they are born. Rest day for me, anything in your diary for today?.

Good morning to you all. We are still having snow coming down. Schools closed for a second day and 3 Lorries stuck just round the corner from my little cottage. The joys of Winter I suppose. Good for putting your feet up and get reading to your hearts content. Not a bad way to spend the day . Lilly as usual made herself cosy on the sofa and is having a lengthy nap. Hope you are all doing ok and negotiate around life’s ups and downs in your own little ways. Take care and be kind to yourselves
love Alana and Lilly xx
Hi Alana
I'm making soup...my favourite winter activity!
Lentil today, with a touch of smoked paprika.
We've managed to avoid the snow in my part of Scotland, but it's very cold!
Candy would also be curled up on the sofa, if I had one. Instead, she's lying in front of the heater. Very sensible!

That was a lot of snow. Hope you and Lily are staying warm. I am on my last day of chemo break. Trying to tidy up things and cooking ahead of my treatment tomorrow.
Simon I went out for lunch with Friends yesterday and had a really good time. Hopefully I will meet up with them again next month. Did you manage to get up and have a small walk today?
Eddie How are you doing? many hospital appointments this week?
Sharon glad to hear your treatment is working so well. I hope some thing similar may happen to me is well.
Good night everyone xx
Good evening Kate, it is still snowing here. I am glad I have all I need in the house, as the roads are not in great shape. Sure there will be no school tomorrow again. No post since Monday either. Mind I have a suspicion that has more to do with understaffing than the weather. Lilly and I enjoy a cosy evening and planning an early night.
Stella, good luck for your chemo tomorrow. Hope you feel a bit better Simon and enjoy your furry friends company. Pets are such fun and joy and they never complain if you let of steam. Everybody stay cosy as I believe the temperature is dropping well below 0 in some parts of England.
love to you all from Alana and Lilly xx
Good Morning All
Yes weather is crap, though it is winter, it does not last for every and spring will soon be here.
Not been about lately, have a few things going on, now I have my son here, and yes mum is still mum, and looking after him, never changes.
