Soop's warm and welcoming kitchen for kindly folk...

I will be thinking of you tomorrow Hellogirl

Good to hear it’s nothing sinister neine and you’re back home now
Thoughts will be with you tomorrow hellogirl 💐
I’m sat here on the comfiest sofa ever with two DGS s snuggled up beside me
A bit like you grandmabatty it’s such a lovely feeling
DD1 and SiL have gone into London so I’ll be putting these two to bed soon and treating myself to a bit of chocolate and finding something on Netflix - if I can fathom out the tv and which of the 3 remote controls to use .. I’ll have to ask DGS to set it up for me before he goes to bed…

Hello all. Once again I’m just sitting on the sofa with Milo keeping me company. He purrs and snores simultaneously. OH and I had a lovely Christmas lunch with the U3A lunch group. Back home I sorted out rooms for daughter and younger son. I thought about icing the Christmas cake but decided to do it tomorrow after our cleaning ladies have been. I wrapped up a couple more presents. There’s one more to come. It’s with the courier so hopefully it will be delivered tomorrow. A beautiful Christmas flower arrangement arrived today from my sister in law in Australia - well, ex-sister in law since she and my brother divorced years ago. She is still family though and in fact lives 10 minutes walk from my sister.
Hellogirl - I’ll be thinking of you tomorrow and pray things will go as you hope they will.
Have a good evening people. After a massive lunch I’ve just eaten a mince pie and a tiny square of flapjack for my dinner.

A huge hug to you for tomorrow Hellogirl my thoughts will very much be with you. Give him the most loving “send-off “, a celebration of his life and thanksgiving for all he meant to you all
A lovely walk in the sunshine at our local country park probably went a long way towards encouraging Rosie to forgive me. Unfortunately the weather was not as good today!

Yes, the funeral is tomorrow (Thursday), I`m so not looking forward to it.
SueDonim, so sorry to hear your news, I hope that the chemo clears up anything left over, and that you all manage to have a decent Christmas, despite it all.
Baggs, love and best wishes to you and yours.
Ann, I hope you enjoy your visitors (and the shopping!)
Maw, I hope that Rosie hasn`t put you in the doghouse for taking her to the vet!

Quick update... All fine heart wise ... probably a Hiatus hernia instead. Phew. Thank you for your good wishes.

A warm welcome to creativeness. Looking forward to hearing more about you.

Grandmabatty No wonder your heart if full. Your grandson's words are beyond priceless.

Maw uses the term "zorsted". It has become a favourite of mine. I'm semi-zorsted at this minute. Time for a reviving, refreshing brew. I also have a top that I need to alter. Out with the needle and thread.

I'm on the couch with a sleeping dgs1 beside me. He said earlier he was happy. When I asked why, he said because he loves me. My heart is full. Naughty I sincerely hope that you are ok. My best wishes to you all. Thinking of Hellogirl for the ordeal to come.

Lovely thread to read best wishes all

kittylester Continue to improve health-wise. So many of our lovely Kitcheners needing a group hug. You all matter.

NaughtyNeine Please get back to us as soon as possible. It's worrying to hear that you are in A&E.

dragonfly Hearty congratulations to you and your husband. I hope that yo have a super special 54th wedding anniversary.

I believe Hellogirl mentioned that the funeral was take place on the 22nd. She and her family are foremost in my thoughts.

Easy mistake Blossoming.
Hope you’re tested now and ok Naughtyneine.

Oh my goodness naughtyneine I’m hoping you’re ok and back home soon

Yesterday was manic with bells on. Ultimately, our guests didn't depart until 7:30 (after much blethering and chortling).

Dear SueD, what can I say to ease your pain? I wish that I knew the answer. I search my heart for the right words but cannot find them no matter how hard I try. Keep sharing with us lot. My love is winging it's way to you.

It is on the 22nd. I’m so sorry and hope I haven’t caused any distress.

I thought it was tomorrow too...I prayed for everyone at 3am (especially Hellogirl..Baggs and SueD) when I couldn't sleep.. the breathlessness and the dull ache in my chest were keeping me awake.
SueD... It's not the news you wanted but hopefully it means that all bases will be covered and your son will be soon fit and well.
Happy Anniversary Dragon fly... Enjoy your special day.
I started to write this before a call from the GP... I'm now currently in A and E awaiting an ECG and blood tests. Oh joy.

Congratulations dragonfly on your staying power.

Ann, I too thought it was Hello's son's funeral tomorrow! I hope all goes well - you are never far from my mind Hello.

Congratulations to you & your DH, on your Wedding Anniversary, dragonfly, enjoy your day.

I hadn’t realised it was the funeral today, I had it in mind it was tomorrow.
All my kindest thoughts go to to all his family.

Me too blossoming, thinking of hellogirl today 💐❤️

Thinking of Hellogirl on this saddest of days.

Happy Anniversary drangonfly 🥂
Once the mammogram is done I hope you both have a lovely day.

That’s great news kitty. Onwards and upwards.
So sorry to hear your news Suedonim- it is what I heard 3 years ago!

It is our 54th Wedding Anniversary today and I have a routine mammogram!
I have had two very stressful days. On Monday I was jumping through hoops for the Dutch taxman and yesterday the car wouldn’t start. Hoping for a more peaceful day today.

Sending love and best wishes to all, there are fat free croissants on the side.

SueDonim 💐

Just to add my thoughts for all of you with health or family worries.
Life is bl**dy unfair and sadly there is little we can do except offer a shoulder, or prayers along with what comfort or support we can from a distance
