WOYWW 540

"Here we are again, happy as can be, all good friends and jolly good company" - well, it is Wednesday and time to join Julia again with her mammoth blog hunt showing our desks and what we are up to.

Not much to show on mine again, sorry - just a page started for my next Thursday Journal page with Wendy.  It started off with a painted background using my Amsterdam paints and then I closed the journal in the hope it would transfer some to the opposite page.  It did, but not enough.  Anyway, as you can see I used a stencil on top of one page and now I need to look up what the challenge is and get the figures on.


The keen eyed amongst you will observe that apart from the journal things have not changed.  Well, I have tidied up the pieces for the gingerbread house, not done any more not stuck that one together, have not put my scraps away (brown card in plastic bag with blue card behind it) so it points to it having been a very non creative week.  Should have given WOYWW a miss but I can't I enjoy the company even when I have nothing to share.  

Maybe next week!

Health Update:
The District Nurse was very pleased with the way the blister is starting to heal. Said the nurse at our surgery had done a good job getting that blood clot out.  Pain has been awful though as I cannot do much without it kicking in and unless I get back to the chiropractor I fear I will be back at square one before long.
Had another set back!  Never rains but it pours for me.  It looks as if I have another polyp.  Only had one removed in March when they said all was well, it wasn't pre-cancerous like the others had been and so they took me off the watch list.  I think that was an excuse as I have probably reached the cut off age.
I cannot face another colonoscopy as the last one was terrible.  They almost had to peel me off the ceiling.  It has never hurt like that before, and they gave me extra sedation.  I was sure I heard the word "trainee"mentioned and I certainly did not recognise anyone in Theatre, having had about four colonoscopies before.
Anyway, I know I cannot leave it, it won't go away so I have arranged to see a consultant privately.  Don't care what it costs, I have to do it this way.  So tomorrow I go to the local private hospital and see one of the surgeons I have had do the procedure on me before.  Maybe by next week's WOYWW it will have been done!
