Calm 82:365


A really good word for me today. My sister had a CT scan yesterday- as soon as my dd arrived for visiting!!!! It's CLEAR! So as soon as they have checked she can digest food properly and run up and down the stairs she'll be able to leave hospital. She's a very fussy eater and hasn't been eating the hospital food. So the dietician is seeing her today to see if they can order special meals to get her eating. They had to do that last time she was in- and she was getting cooked breakfast and meals she'd eat. So a feeling of calm has come over me!

Time to make a cuppa and have breakfast. I will admit that when Amy told me she'd gone off for a CT scan yesterday I went into a mild panic- although I know they do scan for other things apart from Cancer. So mum rang this morning to say they doctors had been round and it was all ok- and provided she co-operates with the other two things she'll be looking at coming out at the weekend hopefully.

In our family a cup of tea is a cure all. My daughter absolutely loves her cup of tea and never refuses a cup! So I'm sat here with my cup of tea enjoying a late breakfast - with a Mount Everest of ironing facing me, but even that isn't taking away the 'calm' today! The crock pot is busy cooking dinner for tonight as dh and dd have to be out for 6. Dh has just called to say that they've had a payrise backdated- and we can use the extra money to get a new wardrobe for Emma's room. This will hopefully help keep her room tidy. She's a walking mess monster.

  5. Great news Kim, both about your sister and the pay rise! I got a tiny pay rise on my pension in the budget, not the full amount because I haven't got a full pension, but every little helps.
