Thank you DL :)

Yes we are so pleased that we now know what it is as he had these pains about 4 or 5 times in just over a year, I knew something wasn't right :rolleyes:

Steve will have to take a week off work apparently after the operation to recover, I will have to be Nurse Kylie :cool:

Sounds as though he will be in very good hands. Meanwhile, perhaps Nurse Kylie should self-medicate with some favorite chocolates.
 
Kylie my thoghts and prayers are with you both.

We are going across the river to our doctor's office and having some fun going. Our regular route while the gps tries desperately to turn us back to its route which takes twice as long! LOL!!!

Gee, houswork, huh? How exciting. I am sitting here trying to decide should I go downstairs and sit on the patio and do some sewing, or stay in and clean the kitchen. Decisions, decisions, decions. :ermm:

Heat the coconut in the oven. It forces the meat of the nut away from the husk and is easier to remove. Just make sure you have punched those holes in the top or the nut may explode. :)

I never knew how to get it out easy. Thanks.
 
I'm walking around the house in my new sandals. I want to break them in. I really lucked out. I found a pair that are comfortable at the first place I looked. They were even on sale. I have bunions and wide feet. It is really hard to find shoes that fit comfortably. I's a bit easier in the States.

I take a 5EEE. And I can only wear flat shoes. I don't know which I hate the most. Buying shoes or a coat. At 4'8" tall it is like buying a heavy gown. :wacko:
 
Relaxing after the pool. Just ordered a pizza, waiting for delivery. Plans to visit mom tomorrow. Will sleep good tonight.

Yikes! My sympathies.

The shoes have to be worse. You could conceivably get a dressmaker to make you a coat.

Stirling wears 11 1/2 EEE. We have finally accepted the fact that a pair of shoes is going to cost about $200.

The GPS kept asking us to do u-turns....even when we actually arrived at our destination!

The trip was worth it! All tests show that my back/side pain is no longer to do with my kidneys and is not internal in any way. This means I can cancel two specialist appointments and no more tests. Instead I am going to go back to my physiotherapist because even thought the xrays showed no new fractures in my back, there is definitely something going on there.

Similarly for my throat, it is not cancer and is not a flap of tissue that needs surgery. It is a combination of previous scar tissue and drainage from my sinuses. I already have an appointment with my ENT in September so we leave it there and I just continue on eating what I can and adding supplements.

My breathing test was 50/50 good and bad, but I will deal with it with my Respireologist next week. Mostly it is good, but we need to keep it that way.

The best part of all was when she told me I got a wonderful review from the people at the pain clinic. They said that I was really eager to learn and put things into practice and even under hard conditions I went in positively. This means a lot but even more when my doctor seemed so proud telling me this. We have been together for 31 years (I was one of her first patients on her first day in practice) and have seen the good the bad and the ugly together.

I am still in pain and still uncomfortable with my throat but it is much easier to take without the unknown!
 
I am going to bed early tonight, try to sleep all night, sleep in an extra two hours and then head into work for a 4 hour shift. Shrek will be going to the music shop by himself (I know I'm either brave or a sucker), it will be his first outing by himself since June 4th.

Hope you get some sleep, PF, you sure deserve it!

Go Shrek! We need to attach a Shrek-cam to assure his progress and safety!

He can't lift anything more the 20 pounds for at least another month...so maybe he won't buy any amps or a Baby Grand...
 
Morning guys :)

Well Steve and I had a very early night last night, it was about 7.45pm that we went to bed.

We got 10 hours sleep :ohmy:

Both feeling a lot better after a really good sleep YAY and Steve feels okay, he is just very tender around the gall bladder where they prodded him bith the doctors and the ultrasound

We have been out in the garden fertilising all our plants and doing a bit of weeding...all those pesky Winter weeds :rolleyes:

Also got loads of oranges and lemons off the trees and now about to go for a walk to the garden centre for some things!

It is a lovely sunny day here, perfect for a walk :)

Hope everyone is having a lovely day/night
