Oh Gosh Oh Dear I haven't been able to log on for days ( talk about withdrawal symptoms)
Seriously Guys I thought I had been Nominated I couldn't figure it out I thought I have said far worse in the past ! Honestly I have been much more near the knuckle ! I couldn't even log on to see what I might have said . That's it I thought there is no doubt I have been Nominated . Then of course it struck me like a thunder bolt would I have not got a letter in the post ,
So I have been nonchalantly hanging about by the post box of course not wanting to attract attention (which is hard when you are dressed in a red dressing gown with a hood).

Then that's when I had a breakthrough in my thinking I thought some one and you always get one would have messaged me through fb to say Jules I didn't want to tell you but you have been Nominated.
We have all got those friends that can't wait to tell you bad news , so that's when I thought ( you have to go with me on this thought process) I thought are they not saying anything because
A They don't want to give me bad news
B There isn't any bad news
C There is no forum it's all been a dream
D there has been a major C.... up with admin.
E Julie you have been Nominated and the letter hasn't arrived yet . πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

I suspect the rest of us would go on strike if anyone dared moderate you Julie - lovely to have you back. Thanks for the giggle!

Maybe you could be nominated to stand in for Santa in your red dressing gown - what a laugh, thank you Julie

Another laugh from you Julie, I don't know how you do it.

I read through your post and was thinking "Nominated, nominated for what" and then decided you must have been waiting for a new years honour since you were also stalking the poor postman!!

I was relieved to get to the end of your post to see you meant moderated!!

That just ain't gonna happen girl. I'm sure that the moderators all understand what members in your situation are going through and make allowances.
I would also imagine that if it had been that bad they themselves would have emailed you to tell you they had removed your posts.

Rant away when the mood takes you, I know we all understand.

Love to you all, yourself and Trevor and the boys and the not so little puppies by now and the mummy dogs

SS you get nominated for best misuse of a word or best predicitve text upfcuk a bit like people get awarded for a Golden globe or an Emmy even an Oscar (Lord knows you deserve an award of some description.)

I remember once mis spelling a word on here in a response to one of those nasty troll people. It was such a shame because it was almost "Eyresque" in candour but unintentionally, in one finger stumble, it became rather more like Edward Lear and therefore totally missed the point. Sadly several people liked the post purely because they were still laughing at my mis spelling months later.

I do find it amusing when predictive text does its own thing and the author doesn't notice. For instancce the Queen banks with Coutts and Co but for ages her equery was writing to Coitus and Co. ...one wonders if it ever got interruptus!!

My bestie once meant to send a message saying "looking forward to seeing you" but actually sent "looking forward to swinging with you"

Such minor errors should be overlooked of course as we are all merely human. Nobody could moderate you sweet SS that would be like censoring Gordon Ramsay ...no fun at all

I was getting withdrawal symptoms from not reading your post. Then when I read your comment about being nominated I thought hey that's great you must have been nominated for an oscar or some other award for a great outlook and sense of humour. Oh well perhaps not but you and your man certainly deserve one.

So just a smidge more serious update and I can't believe the difference 6 weeks have made.
Not sure what to call him anymore , Turmeric Trev , Titanuim T, or just Mr Shamazing . Wow what a transformation 6 weeks ago he could barely walk even sitting up in bed was difficult.

Today just 6 weeks later he has been to B&Q ( pensioners day πŸ˜†) he said he was going for light bulbs I thought that's ok not to demanding even the fact that he can walk to the car and is driving is a minor miracle . Anyway he arrives back and nearly reversis into my picket fence , of course I said very sweetly ! Mind the fence Darling ! That is what I was trying to say but my inner fish wife took over and what I actually said was ! For F..... sake you have nearly crashed the f...... fence.
His answer I had to park as near as possible because I can't carry the door very far. I know you are the thinking the same as me ( he only went for light bulbs) .
So upshot is he forgot the light bulbs but we have a brand new bedroom door 🀠
The crowning glory was when I said what the hell are you doing , what are you thinking carrying a door ! His answer was I know I wanted white but they only had it in cream ! 😱

So there we are 2nd Raduim in and we have gone from severe pain and not able to stand to 6 weeks later carrying a door . Remarkable doesnt even come close.
Just had mid term HB results and up again so it's gone from
9.0
9.1
9.8
10
Appointment for his teeth extractions is 16th Feb it is going to be a day stay not sure how many teeth they will take out but any amount will make him more comfortable.
Cardio appointment for Papworth is 10th Feb
So things at last getting sorted.
It's all go isn't it.

Fabulous update Julie. We're just back from the pub so the combination of a couple of pints with good friends, a good laugh, and the image of Trevor and his door will see me off to bed in a much jollier state that I would have thought possible.


Bless you!

So here we are Raduim no 3 tucked under our belt and completed today. Cardiology tomorrow and day stay for teeth on the 16th it's all go here. That has just reminded me of when our calendar was crammed with fun excursions / party invites/ meals out/ etc etc and now it's like a list from a scene from Casualty.

Talking about excursions if anyone can bring up my post about the train journey and put the link here I will be ever so grateful πŸ˜‰I am not naming the two guys I am thinking about but S and C if you are reading πŸ€—πŸ˜

It's all about journeys isn't it that's why the train journey came into my mind , we are nearly 4 years into our journey ( a bloody miracle) I can't put into words how gobsmacked I am by that , it is just mind blowing after all that he has been through the highs the lows and there has been so many lows again probably more blue lights than Casualty.

Here we are almost 4 years into our journey and 4 weeks ago he could barely stand and today he has done the school run and then stopped at Tesco where he bought me a early Valentine gift / no wait for it , it was a giant bag of Walkers Cheese and Onion Crisps and this is the best bit a box of Mr Kipling special pink edition Fondant Fancies . 😍 What more could a woman ask for in life !
He knows how to tug at my heart strings .πŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜„

Hi Julie,

I hope everything continues to go well for Trevor. You are certainly married to a very special person who has continued to fight this dreadful disease inspite of having to cope with other health problems too. I'm sure the strength and the loving support you give him is the reason why he has done so well.

Thank you for all you do on this site to raise the spirits of all who read your posts. You probably may not realise the help that it gives us all.

Thanks.

Steve

Well, you've had me laughing again Julie. What a man you have there.

He obviously does know the way to your heart (although I did think the stomach was the way to a MAN'S heart. You are obviously breaking that mould too)

I mean, to splash out on pink fondant fancies - what is he thinking of. What is he going to do for Valentines Day now to top that!!
