Can only think feet must get really hot though, doesn't appeal to me although since my feet are size 12/13 UK they'd be like the ones I just hung up for s on the bookcase.

All this talk of dieting reminds me that I hadn't mentioned I Managed to lose nearly 2 stone on the one meal a day (which is a lousy name as its no such thing) so far, still a ways to go though. Vanilla sounds like you're doing brilliantly well done and have a great Christmas :-)

Well done 28 lbs, 12 kilos, on one meal a day?

For me that would be an all day meal!

That's my whole goal, will be great!

Vanilla

Btw my purple bed socks would be too big for you!

Nothing much to report.

Everything went as planned, Xmas eve with glam sis, xmas morn with Aged Ps travel for evening with H S and grandchildren.

A lot of travel but never alone with H and drink in the same place.

Avoided any long term alone time with H. Civil and cordial, even the exchange of unwrapped Xmas gifts. No sloppy cards or R stuff.

No abuse, ignored drinking and waywardness. Made H travel under his own steam to any journey he wanted and never collected him. Getting calmer.

Enjoyed my Xmas. Detached apart from a couple of personal moments and tears mainly to do with loss of the sexual side of an R.

Give H an inch and he will try to take a mile.

Diet has gone well, apart from a small box of matchsticks made of chocolate.
Only one glass of prosseco.

Lots of sleep.

Dropped a dish on my toes, toe nail is black, nothing like Jims foot though!
Some lovely warming Xmas stories around, Dawn RPP and Pink all being strong and sassy.

Some drama, Jim, Mozza and HP.

Some lovely Xmas with children, Ins and RD.
Some lovely insights MCS and Edz.
General Bon homie and wassail, my lovely gg, Lisa and Vanilla

To all of you DBers best of the festive, love into 2015. May all your bed socks be purple.
Vanilla

Thanks RD, best wishes returned x100

Today is going to be a difficult day. I face it alone with some dread.

Two medical events, minor open jaw procedure to remove drains and residue of packing left behind from when I was young. And the precautionary biopsy result on the bone to be advised.

The results of the bowel exam, although I am expecting the tomato soup incident (severe bleed) to be as a result of too much antibiotics. I also need to advise doctor I didn't take the antidepressants as I want to wait until after the teeth are resolved to see if that is a major cause of the blues. Vanilla isn't usually blue.

The world feels really flat, isn't this where having a loving spouse is supposed to be a comfort and support. It's at times like these when a real world hug comes in handy and I am so far from my loving family although of course I have some very loving friends nearby one of whom is going with me today. H is playing golf instead. I really need space from this.

I live with a man who only asks how much I will invoice this week! I am so looking forward to 2015 to leave this awful year behind me and in the past.

Ok, less of the self pity and onwards and upwards. I have work and I need a bath.

PMA Vanilla, PMA.

Gg .5 kilo down 73.5 kilo. At least something!

Vanilla, hope you're ok. The medical things sound awful.

Don't resist the ADs. You've got more than enough going on between the tooth and the H. The tooth thing sounds like it will take a little more time to resolve. Why not make your life easier for yourself till then? I'm sorry your H is so callous. And I thought mine was self-absorbed. Sheesh.

I'm glad you found good support. We've got your back here too.

In years past, the new year hasn't made much of a difference. But this year I feel so much more in charge of my life that I think it's going to be different. I bet that's the case for you too. Get your health squared away and zoom into an awesome year. smile

Best to you!

Thinking of you Vanilla. It'll be difficult, but I'm sure they'll sort you out. These people are experts, they know what they're doing.

Maybe we should organise an anonymous UK hug fest in somewhere central like Coventry or Leicester :-)
