MEAN BUS DRIVERS, FAMILY, CANCER AND JEWELLERY MAKING ;)
The weekly (?) update on my exiting life;)
Last Friday Mum got really sick, so I was shopping and walking Balder for her - it was nice to be able to do something for her for a change.
I also had to go the pharmacist for a lot she had ordered and some cold medicine too.
I took the bus there..I put down the money on the plate and one of the coins fell into one of the tubes. The bus driver flipped and yelled at me, for throwing the money down to annoy him. I tried to apologise but he didn’t listen and I actually started crying….and I never cry…
I was really upset, and when I got home I wrote a complain to the administration. I haven’t heard anything yet, but it made me feel better…..
Saturday morning my brother called and asked if the girls could come stay for a couple of hours, as he and my SIL was going shopping and the girls didn’t want to go….sure they could so I got busy drinking my coffee and cleaning up a little.
Sarah had a stomach ache - nothing worse than she could eat popcorn and ice-cream - so she sat in my chair and watched HOP, as Thea started playing with my rubber ducks, making voices for them. She drew a picture for Mum as a get better card, and I promised to deliver it; Thea then put her hands on either side of my face and in a very serious voice said; ”Be careful, so she doesn’t infect you.”

Sunday and Monday went quiet and Tuesday I had physiotherapy, and this time it was the right day;)
Mum was better so we went shopping for the package to Bosnia, that was to be send on Wednesday. I printed some pictures for them to see, so here are a few of them for you.

Mum and I at my birthday
As it says;)
Yesterday I went to Mum for dinner and TV, she was doing well again, still coughing but better.
My brother called in the afternoon, to see if I wanted to go to Rebecca’s birthday party on the 17th. Mum can’t go as she has a prior engagement, as her older sister invited her for her 75th birthday. My brother, SIL, Sarah and Thea are going to Rebecca and he said they would pick me up so I could go to. Then I could go home with them later and he would take me home later…how could I say no to that…….so I called my sister to tell her that I would come for the party…she told me she had booked a table at Bones on the 20th when it is Rebecca’s b-day, for her, Rebecca, Benedicte, Mum and me, but I could go to both parties;)
Today the post delivered another package with Christmas presents, so now I’ll start my Christmas list, so I am sure I don’t buy something wrong, or forget anyone of you. Last year I send 94 Christmas presents to people on my flist, rather exited to see how many I’ll get this year;)
The 20th, the day for the party, I have an appointment at the hospital in the morning. It is my six month cancer check-up. They will order a mammogram for later, as they always do with the fall checkups.
For some reason I am rather scared for this one…If it goes well (as I hope) I am a three year cancer survivor, and somehow the words, spoken by my oncologist, ”you have a 40% chance to be alive in five years”, shows up in my head a little to often.
Please don’t hate my oncologist, I owe him my life and love him dearly for everything he has done for me and Mum and Dad over the years. He just spoke the truth as we asked him to do………
But four out of ten are odds I can live with right? You guys are stuck with me until I’m 80;)
And now for something completely different;)
Does any of you need cell phone charms, bracelets, earrings or something else that I can make…I am having a dry spell making jewellery, and I need to get back to it.
My hands are really bad now, and I really need to exercise them, but I have no idea what to make…so if any of you need anything for your self or a friend or someone please let me know and I will make it for you…
And I have new postcards too, so you will get a two-in-one;)
♥love you♥
