sunnyday Posted July 16, 2021 Author Share Posted July 16, 2021 Here we are then another Friday! Last day of term for some, maybe, we finish on Tuesday so not quite there yet... We have been very busy sorting 'stuff' and cleaning (don't want the new owner to say I left things in a mess!) - why is it that whenever I move something to clean the children are suddenly attracted to it 🤷♀️ all things that are on permanent offer 😂 Not great news on a personal front - it looks like eldest granddaughter, 19, has Covid, waiting for confirmation from a PCR, she is quite poorly despite having had her first jab, please hold her in your thoughts... On a brighter note - summer seems to have arrived at long last Have a lovely weekend all x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louby loo Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Sending positive vibes for your granddaughter x We finished today. YAY! Totally shattered. We got through the term without Ofsted 😭.... really wanted it out of the way- now it's just another thing the think about over the summer 😩 We are having major work down in our scout hall including us getting new storage, which, unfortunately means we have to clear out our old! Ive brought so much home to sort here that my conservatory (which is a fair size) looks like a jumble sale 😭. Andy never says a word as I walk past with more boxes and bags- but I know he's wondering just how long it going to be like this 🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panders Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I remember those looks Louby loo. Long suffering husbands😄 Sorry to hear about your granddaughter Sunnyday, do let us know how she gets on in the next few days. Our youngest granddaughter in A&E this morning with croup again. Obviously with her underlying health problems chest and throat infections are to be expected, but just a few weeks respite for her adoring parents would be good, when I asked my son what he would like for his birthday this coming Tuesday he just said "sleep". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cait Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Oh goodness, what a mess it all is! I’ve just got Zebedee back from hospital! He’d had his first chemo and was recovering well, or so we thought, when WHAM! Wednesday morning at 4am he was gasping with pain. Actual ten out of ten pain, which he never has. Ambulance called and he was rushed off. Diverticulitis, and he was lucky to escape surgery! That would have been a nightmare without any immunity thanks to the chemo. He was pumped full of antibiotics and steroids and is now home again, but now another delay in the chemo. Some good news though, our daughter and her girlfriend have set the date! August 2022! Let’s hope all the chemo is fine and he’s bouncing again by then. Praying for your granddaughters. 🙏🏼 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panders Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Oh dear Cait, quite a worrying time for Zebedee and you. I hadn't realised he was having chemo so that was a bit of a shocker, but diverticulitis is so very painful, I sincerely hope the treatments are working. Good luck to your daughter and girlfriend, make sure you let us all know how the day goes when it's time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily there’s no spine compression but he had a very painful few months before diagnosis. Edited July 17, 2021 by Cait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panders Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 I am currently in "Venice" (via a webcam :) There will be a huge firework display at sundown and will get rather a good view - lots of small motor boats and yachts collect together around St. Marks Basin to watch. Safest form of transport atm to visit foreign lands 😂 https://www.skylinewebcams.com/en/webcam/italia/veneto/venezia/riva-schiavoni.html if anyone else is interested! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daughter positive on the lateral flow - she had a bad cold sore/throat (suffers with tonsillitis anyway) does the PCR, fthis gets 'lost' in the system.... constant chasing up, finally turns up and the result was negative!
