Slap round the chops

It has been brought to my attention today that it has been a while since I wrote. I was asked, ‘Are you done with the Jodie blog?’

The answer is no, I’m not.

I’ve been stoopidly busy and have really had no time to sit and compose. The back log of things that have happened include;

New baby in the house (kitten)
Favourite things (think The Sound of Music)
Work issues (good stuff and bad)
My new veggie patch
Mothers Day
Watching a filming of Top Gear
The Basics at the Vanguard, Newtown

Hopefully, I’ll have some time to write while I’m sitting in hotel rooms in weird and wonderful places around NSW. I’m going on a training road show for work and will be travelling for just over six weeks.

Time to write

Woo Hoo!! ;-)

Update

Ta Dah!

I’m back briefly, mainly to give you an update of what’s going on with my Mum.

When I last wrote, I said she’d started treatment. That turned out to be a lie. The Spanish hospital was hopeless, as were my family at passing on Information. The only thing they got right was the cancer thing.

Two weeks ago my Mum cracked the sh*ts with the Spanish hospital and went back to the UK. It would seem that the language barrier was the main cause for here receiving woeful treatment. So now, she’s under an English doctor in and English hospital (oh err!)

When I spoke with her Doctor on Friday last, he informed me that she was doing well and they were hopeful that they could arrest the cancers (yes multiple, lungs, throat, pelvic bone). When I asked if my planned trip for end of June would be soon enough he said it should be ok, but thing can change.

Last night they did. She was rushed to hospital (she’d been staying with my Nan) to have an operation to open her airway, because she couldn’t breath.

So, I’m off to ole Blighty this weekend. I’ll keep you posted if you are all interested.

Apart from that, the new house is OK, I’m coping with the commute (despite a feral train trip) and Puss has settled in. Thanks for asking.
