Hi @Owlunar that is a lovely call out wishing your a kind and compassionate Easter Saturday 🙂

Thanks @Bunniekins

I really like that - being wished a kind and compassionate Easter Saturday

We all have different circumstances - and I am really glad for a few days to myself after a hectic week when there were times when I wonder if there are events deliberately set up to make short weeks so cluttered

Actually working people might really like short weeks but I used to work and found I had the same amount of work but less time to do it in - now I find short weeks to have full of the ordinary stuff stretched out over 5 days jammed into 4 and really - truly feel glad to have a few days with less chaos

Of course I spend most of this time alone - my family was here for Easter Buns for Brunch yesterday and shared Easter Presents and a long catch up - but the rest of the weekend I have to myself

Next week my daughter has day surgery - I think it is circumstantial and only a precaution but of course it is something on my mind - and two short chaotic weeks in a row has to be a strain

But - we put our clocks back an hour tomorrow morning - gee! - this summer went fast

Best wishes Greenpea

@Owlunar All the best for your daughter's up and coming surgery. It doesn't matter how big the operation is it is always a worry isn't it when it is one of your own. I love the end of daylight saving one more hour ....bliss. Enjoy your day Dec xx

Hi @utopia

Yes - I am glad for the time to myself - there were times last week if I really thought someone had press the chaos button - and I guess we will have the same with another short week next week but I must say I enjoy time to myself

My family was here for Easter buns yesterday

I joined the forum family after Easter two years ago now and it was at the same time then as this year - I had bruised my right ankle and spent the whole time with my foot elevated watching recorded TV - and the weather was not as it has been the last couple of days - it was bleak and grey and gloomy and I was pretty miserable I remember

Joining this Forum Family has been one of the best things I have done in my life - I feel so welcome here and I get so much support when I am having a rough spot so yes - this Easter and all the other long weekends there are so many of are so much better than Easter 2016

I hope you are okay - I know each day must be a personal battle - I think of you often and

My daughter - yes - she is having a day (a few hours actually) having a surgeon check if she has endometriosis - she might and it's better to know - this happens next week -

I know people here really care - and this always helps

We have some of these clever birds around here and one was around when my family was leaving yesterday - it's really easy to know when they are about and I always think of you when I see/hear one

Thanks @Bunniekins

You are right - it is always different when it is one of our own -

I had a knee arthroscopy a few months ago - the GA always scares me because I am often aware fo the operation - I don't feel any pain but I know something is happening -

But things are so much better since I had a GA last - back in the last millenium actually - and I was looking at the venetian blinds in the theatre and next thing it was all over and the GAs wear off really fast now - I was up on the ward drinking coffee really quickly

I am glad she is getting this attended too though -
