    Oh Ella, I hope your sister is okay and that you're okay too.

    My mum had a brain aneurysm and she was good as new after the surgery a few days later. The brain is a lot hardier that you would imagine. But it is scary when there's a problem.

    Same with my Mam (it runs in our family :(). My best friend had a fairly serious brain hemorrhage nearly 10 years ago and you'd never know now!

    One girl I know has blood dripping on her brain. It hasn't stopped her doing anything, she just has to be a bit careful. The only indication is that one pupil is bigger than the other at all times!

    Send my wishes to your sister Ella Bella. She's in good hands.

    Hope all goes well with your sister Ella, I know a good few folk who have been admitted with the same thing and in most cases it was absolutely nothing but an over-caution, and all's been grand again after the initial scare very quickly.

    My new word for the day is 'interosseous'. I swear every second sentence out of my mouth since about 1 this afternoon has involved it. Can't even pronounce it properly at this stage, it's coming out all 'inter-whats-ious-ly-thing'.... :o

    Ditto. I got up early to get to a driving lesson that's actually tomorrow, work sucked, I broke a cup and a glass, I'm super tired, I'm worried about my dad and there's even more stuff apart from that. Oh, and I feel tonsillitis brewing again

    If you figure out the whole time travel thing, holla at yo' home girl.

    I'll take one of them too.

    Bike went from under me this morning, nearly skidded across 3 lanes. Bang down on my left hand side. Straight up, bikes grand, I'm grand - couple of scrapes. About an hour later realised my upper arm was killing. No swimming for me tonight. :(

    Ella I hope everything turns out ok - they're probably just being overly cautious x

    Feeling quite the domestic goddess today - second load of laundry is on, Crunchie cheesecake made and in the fridge, soup for lunches made, portioned up and frozen, lasagne made and just waiting to go in the oven! Have an awful headache though, feels like the whole top of my head and face and jaw are being squashed in a clamp :-( nothing is making it go away!

    Crunchy Cheesecake, you say? I can haz recipe, please? :D

    In other news, currently wearing the size 22 jeans my aunt gave me and they are hanging off my hips. I now have a choice- go into New Look and get myself a nice pair of size 20s or at the very least try on a pair OR get a ticket to see Tenacious D.

    Decisions, decisions...

    Buy the jeans, you'll look better and feel more confident in clothes that actually fit you.

    What is it about that moment when you leave the office and you have a lovely drive home as you're not stressing out anymore. It doesn't even matter that the M50 is manic because you're not in the stress anymore...

    You stop in the supermarket and grab the bits and pieces for dinner and then you hit the checkout and there it is.... the large dairy milk for a euro.... WHY!?! :mad: You buy it and then you're in the car again and before you know it half of it has been inhaled!!! You get the sudden "Ah everything is going to be ok" moment and then WHAM... there is the guilt...

    Naturally then you reach for the second half and sure you may aswell because otherwise you will just eat it tomorrow. Get it all gone in the one sitting and have done with it.

    Jeez.... but it was soooo yummy.... feel soooo ill now though... ugh!!

    Just a bike thankfully and going round a corner at the time so relatively low speed with traffic behind me going slow and on the other side they were stopped at lights. Not really any consolation seen as I'm a bit sore but could have been a lot worse. Sure you're proof of that.

    Just back from hosp. Theyre still none the wiser. She had a Cat scan and lumber puncture today which were clear and is having an MRI tomorrow. They think it might be just a virus :) fingers crossed :)

    Thanks again guys for all the well wishes x x

    buttermilk worked. so there.
    and they're not turning into giant monster cookies while baking either!

    can see why they need cornflour as they're not quite crumbly like the real thing but still very nice :cool::cool::cool::cool:

    If you like the current jeans there is a tailor in pavillions in Swords that takes clothes in.

    They can take them in up to four/five inches at the waist and will fit them all the way down, it's about €14 for it?

    I had it done with jeans and work suits after I lost weight a while back.

    RQ hope you are ok.

    I seriously think the dull, heavy weather is having an effect on people. At work on Sunday I kept having to go outside for air, I felt all heavy and lethargic.

    I'm drinking on a Tuesday night, because f*** it.
