Samhain

I'm sat here dressed in black complete with witches hat, mask & besom, we have 2 tubs of sweets ready for the trick or treaters. We usually get quite a lot but we've never had any trouble, they only seem to knock if there is a sign outside, we have a carved, lit pumpkin hanging by the door. The local children seem to be getting used to me answering the door in my witches outfit, last year some of them seemed scared but not this year.

Yet another trip to the Dr's this morning, he says I'm a pain in the bum, literally, I like a Dr with a sense of humour. He tells me that the colonoscopy I had was so thorough that they'd been able to count my fillings! Another set of results, they point to one thing but nothing else does, yet more tests, the results in a week. The list of things I don't have is growing, if there is nothing conclusive next Friday we are considering the 'We don't know what it is but it ain't going to kill me soon ' approach.

So glad the test results are clear. You should have told the Dr your symptoms didn't include a pain in the bum!! What a smashing Dr!!!! Hope you have had some trick or treaters or you will look a bit of a wally, talk about all dressed up and no where to go!! Last year I had no callers and I ended up running along the road after some poor child and her mother, saying 'excuse me, have you forgotten me?'!! I did better this year I'm glad to say!!!

That's what I said after lots of - we don't know what you've got. I discharged myself on the principle that if it was going to kill me they'd have found it.

Doesn't help the pain though!

We are out in the sticks so don't see anyone. Not sure if that's good or bad, just sad.

Sue F, Well that's what I'm thinking & I also get fed up with constant Dr/hospital visits.

SSS, I live in the middle of a council estate so there are loads of kids. I could turn the lights off & ignore them, but I actually enjoy seeing them.

Waste not, want not.

I'm very careful about using up all the food I buy, Steve isn't, he buys mainly junk and party food. Fortunately it is mostly frozen...
