Things of the Good:

I have pulled chicken for the next week and a half my tea. It's teh first time I've made it and it's soooooo good I'm excited for dinner time.

[community profile] naarmamo is underway and I'm keeping up.

I have orange and grapefruit lollies freezing in the. erm, well the freezer obviously.

Things of the bad:

Work is generally shitty at the moment and is going to get worse. They're closing down our office and moving us to another and are going to change all our procedures (which are generally more efficient and productive - eg we allocate reports by all report writers provide 'slots', Court staff look at the diary, match report to a writer and issue teh offender with all appointmnet details and do all teh admin tasks needed, new office sends the reports that are wanted to an admin who does a few bits of admin, it goes in an in tray for teh next person who does some more admin, a third person does a bit more - (this takes a minimum of a week) then the report goes to a fourth person who has to choose who will do a report and go round and ask them if they can do it. The report writer then has to try and contact the offender to arrange an apt and then send them a letter with the details.) This is by no means an isolated example.

Creepy freaky offender is still on the loose

I had a hair cut yesterday and I now have a thing on my head that looks like it belongs on a frumpy middle aged woman and a sulky teenaged boy.

Things of the ugly:

Mum had an MRI scan several weeks back. They seemed to forget about her but after a deal of harassment on our behalf, she received a letter yesterday stating that "Although there is no evidence of secondary disease from her breast cancer there are changes to her ovaries that need further investigation." Sh eis now awaiting an apt for an ultrasound. Needless to say I am worried shitless for her (and have a selfish voice wondering on the hereditary concerns for me if my mother has both breast and ovary worries). She is my primary concern though, so any good vibes you can spare for her would be great and most welcome.

I hope things are okay with your mother and with you too! Your concerns about yourself are perfectly natural. It pays to be vigilant with all those pesky yearly physicals.

Thanks - ironically, I though that with my op I had no need of annual worries, only my ovaries are left!

Sorry I'm a bit behind with my LJ, but I'm definitely thinking of you and your mum! How awful for her - and frustrating when you have to chase up the hospital to get any answers!! (Been there!) There's not really much more I can say to help, I know it's a scary, horrible time. I hope you can take some comfort knowing that people are thinking of you and wishing you all the best. *hugs*

Thank you - hospitals can be really unhelpful places - and it's made worse by the fact that Mum is so all trusting that she never feels it necessary or appropriate to chase or harass them.

Thanks for your thoughts. We're now waiting for teh results of some further tests.
