How Was Your Day? VII

[Pantherboy]

I am so exhausted that i fell asleep in the Dentist waiting room today. They called me three times and in the end had to shake me to wake me up. On Sunday i crawled up the stairs to sleep as I had visitors for about 12 hours none stop. They all came to see my husband who had the heart op. This weekend i am going to go to my office and work and it will be more restful than being at home. they are not letting him rest and he feels he cannot turn them away and will not let me turn them away either. So i will leave them to it. At least the weather is nice for a change

I echo Dazzle's advice swmc66 - take some time out to look after yourself (& I really hope your husband is doing well after his heart operation!).

I am in absolute agony, tripped over a kerbstone, hit my right side of the face, blood from mouth, blood from bridge of nose and not sure if I have fractured my right cheekbone... wanted to have a St Paddy´s celebration later .. think I will give that a miss ...hopefully painkiller and ice pack will prevent me looking like a battered woman tomorrow

So sorry to hear of your nasty fall Perdita. I hope you are ok & the ice & painkillers help. I don't like the sound of the possible cheekbone fracture - it might be advisable to see the doctor about that regardless, especially if it is higher on your cheek, up towards your eye socket!

This time last year, my wife tripped while getting onto the train at Central Sydney & her leg went down between the platform & the train. Luckily our daughter was with her & the people around her also came to her aid. She had a really nasty gash on her shin & the station medical guy couldn't stop the bleeding, so the paramedics were called to cart her off to hospital. She was mortified at all the fuss. She ended up with about 8 stitches (& had complications later which went on for about 6 mths - but that is another story!!) - but the main thing is, while the gash was the main problem, at the hospital they also took x-rays as they thought she may have broken her leg. Luckily that wasn't the case. So it might be a good idea if you get your cheekbone looked at Perdita, just in case.

Look after yourself & I hope you are feeling better.

I am fine, just in discomfort and bruised cheek and big scab on my nose ... luckily I had new passport photos done a couple of days ago, otherwise I would have had to wait a couple of weeks ... Thank you all for your kind words, all making me feel so much better

After waiting for what feels like forever I finally had word from my local record store that my dvds were ready for collection. I was delighted to get them,the complete series of Hetty Wainthropp investigates, and Cannon and Ball series 1-7. My Saturday nights will now be filled with laughter and quite possibly tears rolling down my face at the many sketches they did.I grew up with variety shows on tv, Tommy and Bobby being my favourites. Going to spend an hour at the library doing my ancestry project and a week on Tuesday a genealogist is coming to the library and I have a half hour appointment to try and unravel my Dad's side!!! which so far seems to be heading nowhere fast!!! Let's hope I have some success soon!!!

I too loved to watch Hetty and Cannon and Ball, glad you are looking forward to the Saturday nights now. Good luck with your ancestry project, some people find out some really interesting events in their families lives

If you are interested you can get the dvds from Amazon but they usually are used or not in good condition, however there is another website that specialises in tv shows etc which is called network.com. My local record shop ordered them from this site.

Note to self.. avoid at all costs a Sat night in with Pyro

Ah for me my star trek obsession continues, watching next gen as we speak But it also may explain why I have no friends.

For me genealogy is a sore point, I hate the royals and all they stand for but a cousin proved that we Splashys have a tenuous link to the blood line that rules, its almost as bad as being related to one of the Kadachians.

I hope everyone is feeling better both physically and mentally, I hurt my back recently and feel I am taking too many painkillers so am trying to get myself to cut down and off them
