hello girls just popped in to say hi and read the latest posts xxx

Hi Everyone,

Glad everything turned out ok Pam......must be a relief. Belated happy birthday.....lots of nice pressies?

Jane you do have a nice telephone voice......very well-spoken I would say.

I hate those basins at the hairdressers too and had read about the stroke risk a few years back. I find myself trying not to bend my neck back so end up slithering towards the edge of the seat. I have back ache then instead!!
Hope its finally sunny and dry when you come out of the hairdressers Fiona, nothing worse than stepping out with your freshly done hair into wind and rain is there!

Well, back to the jobs!!

Hello all
back from hairdressers, (I think I spelt it right this time.)
when getting my hair washed I kept thinking about our conversation about strokes, my feet kept dangling and I ask the girl to put the chair up as high as it would go. still got a sore kneck though and water down my top.
but feel much better now that I look tidy again. colour & cut for £32,
Annx, I slither to the end of the chair to I keep my eyes closed all the time as they have a big light right over the basin it's like being at the dentist or in operating theatre. weather was windy but no rain.

Keeping fingers crossed for your daughter Jane hope all goes well for her interview.

I'm filling myself up with food today as from 9.00 tonight I have to fast,
got to see the nurse at 8.50 tomorrow morning, so they can go through blood Test, collestral, weight, urine, blood preasure the lot to find out if I really have Chronic Kidney Disease, which I will find out in another few days when the blood test comes back.

I found that only drinking before a certain time meant that my wee got too strong and made me uncomfortable. soon went back to my evening cuppas. I have found since doing physio, which involves lots of squeezing of muscles in the bottom half, that I am only gettin up once in the night.
We have a home hairdresser, cuts my OH's hair, cuts and blow dries mine, for £15, so I wont be going to any salon any time soon!

Hi Jean ,nice to hear from you again.I'm lucky I don't have to get up in the night for a wee walk.It is only when I wake and the tinnitus keeps me awake for a while I think oh well I might as well go.

Hello Easter Bunny!!!

Daughter felt her interview went well ,but as she says Who Knows She hopefully hear one way or the other next week.

Thanks AB I hope she gets the post too.She deserves it ,but as she said there is so much competition,she's not holding her breath.

Evening ladies

Tina hope you're not gasping for a cuppa! Did you have a pint before your water shed!

Yes Lorraine the internet is marvellous as you say, look at all the friends we've made on here!

Jane, hope that your daughter got on okay at her interview...got to go hubby wants to use internet! Got to get a laptop!!

Pam.xx ☺

well it's 9.00 and all I can now have is water, so I have a pint glass in front of me. talking about going for a wee walk in the middle of the night , I expect to have to go several times, only hope when I get up in the morning I will have something left for the sample I need to take to the doctors.
I'm off for a visit to the bathroom and I'll have a bath and read my book to keep my mind of food , I am going to miss my bedtime hot milk tonight
BOO HOO!!!!
night night
XXXXXXX

p.s.Keeping fingers crossed that your daughter has had luck with her job interview Jane

Hello everyone

Lovely to see a few old faces coming back.

I dont mean aged lol

OH was late coming in from helping a friend so its all gone a bit haywire today. I only took my tablet at 7.15 and had my tea after that. I have had some water and milk but no juice or caffeine. I refuse to not have any drink whatsoever. I will keep a spreadsheet of everything I drink now and the times the tablets are taken. I already did a spreadsheet of the night walks, my GP was most impressed and said he wished all his patients were more prepared! lol (Did I mention that before - I am sure I am going loopy) lol.

Fiona, what a bargain that is for your hair, gosh it would cost three times as much where I live. One of my work colleages paid over £100 for a tint!

Jane, glad your daughters interview went well, fingers crossed now and what will be will be.

Jean, my wee walks are to do with my legs filling up with water during the day, and as the vascular sysem is defective cannot pump the fluid back up, until I lay down in bed at night. As I have not had any children my pelvic floor should be ok. Thus the need for water tablets to try and get rid of any excess, which is working, I have only been getting out of bed 3 or 4 times in a night instead of the 5 or 6 or even 7 times on odd nights. :))

I love the name wee walk !!! luckily I don't have that problem.(YET) .Hopefully never .I have the hot flush walk ,where `I just have to get out of bed and stand and flap around for a bit to get some cool air lol

Night Night Ladies see you all again tomorrow.xx

Have just spent all evening looking and bookng train tickets. With the kind help of Shimms, bless her have managed to save myself a small fortune.

So Swansea here I come!

Good night everyone, I am well shattered. Will read the posts tomorrow.
