	Hi RMS and YG. I'm sitting here in short sleeves and a skirt, sandals on my feet. Aircon going in the next office. Outside the sun is brightly shining and there is a fairly stiff breeze blowing. Tomorrow it will be even hotter, about 39 degrees. I should send some of this heat your way but I'd hate to spoil all your lovely traditional Christmas festivities. Closed roads, bogged in snow, sliding on ice, broken pipes, no heating, shovelling snow drifts, if you get my drift. By the way. I have made my pudding. Full stop. That's it. Will be very busy towards the end of this week.

	Taking the Ark out for a row are we LG!! So tired of work. Spent the whole day in meetings. Brain dead, and that happens very easily as the brain atrophies with old age. DET you could try chaining the OH to the stove. Mine is actually complaining he is running out of ideas for the evening meal. Wonder if a cooking book for Christmas might be the way to go. OK so yes I do wish to keep living. Must see if I can find the tree in the shed in the next week or so.

	I am so shattered we have my little Grandaughter Ava in hospital with a severe virul infection in her chest. I have not slept a wink as she has been in since noon yesterday and had a really bad night,poor little soul is on oxygen and steroids. I have just got back from visiting her and giving her her special Nanna cuddle. We have got Baby Emily here so I am busy babysitting too. Feeling really down at the moment so will sign off for now but maybe back on later. Hopefully she may be allowed home later fingers crossed everyone please X

Member Since: June 2007 Posts: 21,978 Send Message	I'm so sorry to hear about Ava, bless her. It is a huge worry, I know. We nearly lost eldest gdaughter at 10 days old, but as DET says, they are much stronger than we think and I am sure she will rally round very quickly.

	LG, I'm so sorry to hear about Ava, poor little soul. I hope she picks up quickly.

	And there is also nothing worse than a stressed out Grandma. Rest yourself woman. Have some nanna naps or bubby zuzzes. You aren't doing either yourself or your family any good if you stretch yourself to the limit. You can still worry, but do it while you are resting. Joseph on strike. Oh heavens first the posties, then British Airways and now Joseph. Just remind him this opportunity only comes once a year. If he muffs this one he has a whole twelve months to wait until he is in the limelight again. He will really kick himself, and so will you!!!

	Joseph is on strike eh, Can Mary talk to him she'll strengthen him out fast. LaGooner, sorry to hear about you granddaughter, hope she gets better soon. NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!!!!!!! "Environment Canada has continued their snowfall warning for parts of our region to expect up to 20cm more by Wednesday night. A series of pacific frontal systems will spread heavy snow to the southern sections of the British Columbia interior."
