Hello

I only post occasionally and not on this thread as I am a night-bod but I am very impressed at the waking time of many of you!

I would like to say two things: firstly that this thread, mundane as it is in many ways, is absolutely lovely. I am often touched by the way posters really care about one another. In its tiny way it shows man/womankind at its best.

Secondly, I have been thinking and worrying about Gillybob and send best wishes for her husband's speedy recovery. Gillybob has gone through a dreadful time: I hope she is looking after herself as best she can. It is easy to forget oneself when all effort is directed to another.

I wish you both well.

Good morning everyone from the north east coast of Ireland nice bright sunny day but very cold, it won’t effect me today I don’t plan on going out . Right now I’m cooking dinner for gdc baked ham & steaks for the big people, fussy children they like me to have ham on Sunday while I’m cooking I’m listening to great music on my Bosh soundlink mini, what would we do without music. Prayers for Gillys sick DH

Hope you hear good news from the medical team today Gillybob after their meeting. It really sounds like progress is being made, if they feel on top of the infection. Best wishes to you xx

Thank you for updating us gilly. Stay strong, love and hugs from me.

Just popping in to wish you all a good day and to say hello to gillybob. Good to hear some signs of improvement in the infection and a gradual awakening. I hope he gets to be aware of you soon. I am sure after so long under sedation it will take a while for senses to return. Still in my prayers. x

So good to hear from you Gillybob fingers and toes crossed sending love and healing thoughts x

Thorntrees Sun 17-Nov-19 11:50:52

A long road still ahead gillybob but sounds as if there is a glimmer of light to hold on to. Keep strong, love and prayers as always.x

Thank you for the update, gilly. That all sounds a bit more positive. Sending (((hugs))) and alive as always.

Hi Gabriella!

Marydoll Sun 17-Nov-19 10:58:36

Glad to see Gilly has popped back in. ?

Gonegirl Sun 17-Nov-19 10:56:39

Oh, hello Gabriella. WTF did you have to go and ar--e off like that for? Glad you're back.

Gonegirl Sun 17-Nov-19 10:53:58

Oh Gillybob. I am so hoping that this comes right for you and yours. xxx

dragonfly46 Sun 17-Nov-19 10:50:54

So good to hear from you Gilly. I hope they have good better news for you today. Please keep in touch, we all care so much about you.

Oh EV your dinner sounds delicious. I think you torment me on purpose! Lamb in Spain isn’t as nice as at home.

Good Morning All x

Very still and calm so far with a bit of brightness showing now and again. I've been up a while and had breakfast but still in dressing gown yet until I get cracking-----for what, I don't know yet smile

I must say that it's good to see Gabriella54 back again as nobody likes to see anyone leave least of all on a sour note. She gives me the urge to do what I should be doing but because the spirit to do is there, the flesh isn't at times. sad

It's going to be a long journey for Gillybob but just take a day at a time. You're always in our thoughts and willing improvement for your man on a daily basis xx. Hope you're looking after yourself too.

A couple of M&S thick lamb chops today with roast pots cauli and mushy peas ( I'll screw me hat on ) and maybe a quick orange sponge pud in the oven at the same time.

Hope everyone has a peaceful and germ-free Sunday.

Thinking of you, gilly.

Nannytopsy Sun 17-Nov-19 10:22:10

Thank you for your update Gillybob and hopes and prayers that the improvements continue.
Bright and partially sunny in Suffolk today. No builders this weekend so two lie ins! We shall do some unpacking of kitchen stuff now we have room for more than the basics. Hope to get good news from Planning this week which will let us start the dining room. ?

Good morning all from the Scottish Borders. Bright and sunny but freezing.
My first post vanished into the ether but now I have read yours Gilly and am quietly hopeful. Strong healing vibes coming his way.
We have our own family worries but they are not life and death.
I'm hoping to see our DGC on their way north and I have a friend coming over later to stave off Sunday afternoon loneliness.

eazybee Sun 17-Nov-19 10:20:02

Gillybob, so good to hear there has been some development in your husband's situation. His medical team will not give up, and neither will you.

Lins1066 Sun 17-Nov-19 10:19:54

Good Morning from the S Welsh coast. It is dry at the moment.
Happy birthday to you GD Susan.
Enjoy your family get together Marydoll and let everyone else do the running around today.
Welcome back GabriellaG54.
Good to hear from you gilly, you are in my thoughts, hope you have some positive news this morning.

Good morning Mick and everyone

It's damp and grey here and there are piles of leaves to be swept up, but we, too, have a birthday party to look forward to later which should cheer us up
