AWAKE.........

They were on strike for ages and now they are working from home - things take so long to be sorted. I've had to sort licences for parents which have taken ages to come back. There's no rush for anything with them. And yes they ask silly questions as they don't read things properly x

Hope the treatment helps Flossie25 xx

Good luck Angua1 xx

good luck xx

Thank you. In the lap of the interviewers now. 

Managed to get face face with registrar last night so second lot of antibiotics and waiting for scan date . Also needed other blood test as triage registra failed to ask for kidney bloods even tho that’s what she told me she was ordering ️Told them hospital bloods on Friday include kidney so will get it done then .

I don’t have enough usable veins left since chemo so back of hand used  …. then cannula infusion on Monday but at least the chemo 7nit use vein finder machine  

Any ways I was well enough  to direct hubby putting Christmas lights in new shelter which we are going to call “

The “ SITOOTERIE “ 

I feel you just need a nativity creche to finish it off Northerner. But it's beautiful.

LP has had a lovely day. As yesterday was so busy for him and he had come so far, we left him to lie in.

OH took us out to lunch. LP really enjoyed that. We had walked around the town and shown him the Chateau first so he had quite an appetite.  I thought he might be bored with history because I know he loves technology but no.....he was fascinated by the castle ramparts( photo above) and especially when OH showed him the ancient arrow holes that were enlarged to gun emplacements by the Germans in WW11. We had to hang on to LP then.....he would have climbed the wall to get a better look within. I think he thought the gun might still be there .......

LP just loved the desserts. Having charmed the owner it was no surprise she gave him both choices from the Menu du Jour ...chocolate fondant and muffin au poire et chocolat. He likes a drop of Medoc red too and finished with some Cognac, as did we.

Now, we are having a restful evening as my mammogram tomorrow requires an early start and LP will need to go straight from radiology to the station. The fast train to Lille and the Eurostar leaves late morning. We didn't want him getting lost in Paris. There's a lot of Covid ( and unvaccinated!) in the city so taking the other route is safer for LondonLass. I must admit worrying about the dentist and the PCR test next week( surely after avoiding Covid for nearly 2 years, it can't be positive to stop the holiday?) I haven'thad time to think about the mammogram.  LP has been so good ( and hasn't his French improved LondonLass) so I suspect in the familiar surrounding of mammographie and echographie, he may revert to form!

Any news from the interview Angua1?

The ‘sitooterie’ looks great, Northerner

Glad you had a firm hold on LP, Lacomtekp, he can get a bit wriggly when he is focussed on something, I’ve found. Glad his French is improving, (mine is too as I’m brushing up via Duolingo!) he will shortly get bilingual. 

Hope you get an interview result soon, Angua1, and too, that it’s good!

It went better than I expected - I haven’t had a formal job interview for quite a while. I won’t know til the end of the week but I know I couldn’t have done better having never done the job (and it not existing yet).

Glad the interview went well Angua1
