Hi All,

The Good- I received news from work yesterday that they will support me as much as they can during the treatment period i.e. paid my salary in full. I am so very grateful with this as we i dont have to think of financial issues during this bumpy journey.

The Bad- MRI found another 2 new suspicious lumps and last night me and hubby decided we are not going to go through with egg/embryo feezing. The toughest decision we have to make so far in our 13 years together. I've been strong(ish) since i was diagnosed but last night i broke down and cry. We are supposed to go through our IVF treatment ( received dates and all) but found out i have cancer 2 weeks before procedure :(

Thank you [@Sandra123]‍ for creating this discussion thread.

Hi Sandra.

Garden room won’t be finished yet awhile but when it us I’ll post some pics with the new pond as well. I’ve treated myself to a new suite for the lounge so my old (not so) leather recliners are going down there. Got to sit in luxury. It should be up and running by the start of spring months. Can’t wauut to sit in there and look at the garden. :-)

Morning peeps 

bad :- blinking freezing here. Snow that’s left has turned t ice.

good :- no child care to do so. Duvet day. I’m dressed but gonna watch tv on bed. Crafty day for me nd can spread everything around me on bed lol. Got delivery coming so brought door bell upstairs so don’t miss em ( love that I can move door bell around particularly in summer and I’m in the garden - put it in conservatory..... but oh my it is the most miserable, wingy, whiney sounding bell I’ve ever heard- it has a ..whatever mannnn..sound like a sulky teenager telling me someone is at the door. Lol

anyone ever done decoupage... fancy going all Fahrenheit 451 but instead of burning books tearing em up to decoupage some eggs for my Easter tree.... not sure if should use polystyrene or plastic eggs of if it makes no diff lol. #retirementproblems  

Anywhose.... have as good a day as u can peeps x

Ah honestly you will love it sundial. Exactly what I did ... new suite in sitting room nd old one in conservatory. U are right if it’s comfortable it will get used.... lots :-) 

are u getting electrics in it? The lil ones have a play house... son in law asked daughter when he built it.... do u want electrics in it ....no.... are u sure..... yes.... last chance... no. Then the winter came.... can we put electrics in for light nd heating lol. She’s a woman her prerogative gets used all year round tho. X

Hi Sandra

There is already electricity down there, All the pond equipment runs off it and it has irs own supply and board. It needs upgrading, more sockets and lights changing but the supply is there so not a big job. I agree lighting is important and the opportunity for heating if necessary. Hubby is starting a train layout in there so electrics will be needed.  In truth I’ve been talking about converting it since the pond was built. However it was only when the idea of the train layout came up, he said yes, I’m paying for it though. How does that work? :-)

Ha ha.... meh.... who cares why as long as he is lol ;-)

just slowly take it over so it’s pretty much yrs before he realises heh heh. 

Pic of the lil ones play house - “The Dainty Dwelling” the lil ones absolutely love it. x[[]]

Can I move in Sandra? Lmao! 

Ha ha... it’s got lights, sockets nd heating  but no toilet or running water heh heh.

They built it top end of garden then decided wanted extension  ( on actual house not play house ;-) - so had to be moved further down a very long garden. Omg literally.....what a shift. 4 hydraulic pallet lifters and us all pushing and shoving....we did it and not one bit of damage-  the plaster didn’t even crack. 

I have slept in it ... last summer. Girls wanted to sleep in it so gran obliged. 3 of us upstairs... all snuggly  lol. 

Lil ones daddy is a joiner, plasterer, tiler nd mammy is an electrician.... this was a reigned in version ha ha x 

Wow it looks amazing!

Sandra

it looks fabulous. If ever you want a tenant, let me know . Oh and  can I borrow them to do my garden room?

Sundial

Aw ta muchly peeps.... daughter says it’s just another house t clean lol. 

Bad :- none yay

good :- weather warmed up. Out at 8 :30 am Watched lil one at swimm lesson then family time nd shops.... just back now and...... relax. 

Looking for knobs.... now before everyone puts forward names... it’s of the drawer and door variety :-) gonna have a go at making some small cloches... #pinterestmakesmedoit lol. 

Hope it’s been as good a day as it can b peeps ️ X
