Nicey Niecey Explanation

Hello all! just a quick post... off on holiday on Monday!!! Bloody hell, won't believe it till we are there.

Molly update: All OK. Bloods still highish but stable so all OK so far. Osteopath: 1st night was brill. Nice chilled out kid who woke 3 times but was so relaxed it was FAB! Last night was pretty much back to normal. Annoying. Lets see what tonight brings. I will definitely take her again though, when we get back, because it was worth it just for her to be comfortable for that one night.

Had a hectic but nice week, my niece came to stay since Thursday and I just ran her back tonight. I haven't known her very long (well I knew her when she was little, but she grew up!!) and she is 17, georgeous and I am very proud of her. I like her alot too! Its been nice having her here and I hope she comes again.

So I was looking at her My Space and she had this little survey thing.... so I did it. Below are the results!!!

See you after the 3rd April!!! xx

Memory Lane

 
For those of you who didn't see or know her, this was Molly pre-transplant last Summer. 

50 Thousand Leagues Under the Sea

Do you know, its 10 past midnight? This last week I have probably been more tired than I ever have in my life. And yet, here I sit.

Life seems very hard at the moment, and it really shouldn't. Normally a fearless kind of person, who doesn't particularly worry about much I can't change I am finding that my fears are sitting hard and cold in the bottom of my stomach.

Mainly for Molly of course. I am so scared sometimes, and I am sure any mother will identify with that, and even more so mothers who have sick children.

Having "gained" Molly again after her transplant, I dread a return to those days. I don't know how it didn't swallow me up. Molly is really well, but, for all our "wow" shes FAB! to everyone, her bloods still aren't normal. In fact at the moment they are pretty high, but coming down. They are putting this down to lots of chest infections, including Pneumonia last October and about 5 chest infections both before and after. She is on antibiotics again. She really is full of beans, but if her bloods don't settle down in the spring the hospital are going to start investigating. It makes my blood run cold. The fear of the investigations (she has been through so much) and the fear of further surgery for her. And then, the what if its serious? The fear of needing a new liver. The guilt of still being overweight therefore no good to her. And then there is the fucking bird flu. And yes, hey, lets not overeact. But you know what? They say its coming. And it could be just a 10% chance that it crosses the species barrier and an even smaller chance that it becomes a pandemic - but if it does, how on earth will she survive it? That little worry is a deep, sick knot in the pit of my stomach because there is NOTHING I can do.

So, the days seem pretty dark at the moment. I try and enjoy my time and we are very very busy with this that and the other. I am desperate for a "normal" life - more sleep, less pain and worry. I will get over this.

We are definitely moving to Devon. My only two regrets are moving farther away from my mother and my friends. But I long for it and then I worry that its just another distraction and thats why I long for it. Then I stop worrying about that because, as far as I can see, thats what life is all about. Distractions. They say "You have to have something to aim for" and "they" are right, because otherwise life is just the same, day in, day out.

Browsing through my piccies, and I found one of all four of us - so here we are, the Wilby Juniors. 

You wondered whether we were trolls or aliens - heres your proof!

 

And for those of you who didn't see this on the day - this is my handsome husband Shaun, all glammed up for Daisy's 6th birthday last October.

Molly Moo and the Big Grin

  

Hectic Ecclectic

Well its all a bit mad at our house at the moment. LOADS of things going on. Looks like the move to Devon (oo-ar) is going ahead, house goes on the market 1st April and in-laws are currently in Devon for 3 weeks trying to find us all a new pad (yes, we want to stay together before anyone asks!!)

Now thats all very well, but the kennels are quite busy. Shaun doesnt' work at the kennels anymore, only when his Dad needs help, like now. But he is also working for the NCH (National Childrens Charity) dropping collection bags and picking them up. And I have my office job 9-5 on Tuesday and Wednesday. Plus he is trying to decorate the house. Plus we have to try and get the kids to and from school, which is OK when I am not at work, or taking Molly for blood tests, but really difficult when I am not here as Shaun can't leave the kennels. So have called in some major favours and poor Daisy has been passed from pillar to post. Mind you, she seems to be enjoying it OK! Only another 2 weeks to go. And seeing as I am at the kennels on my own on Mondays as Shaun has to work, I have had to get Molly into the nursery for an extra day - more bloody money!!

This week started the same hectic way as last week - and no doubt this week! Dropped Daisy at Mary's at 8am for school run (big favour number 1) and shot down to Brighton for bloods. Shot back up here, dropped Molly at school (big favour number 2)and back here for 10 so Shaun could go to work at 10.30.

Tidied house in a frenzy as Estate Agents due at 11 - wasn't a viewing and shaun said not to bother but hey, woman pride and all that! Customer picked up Dogs just as they arrived, so pissy hands - nice!!! Oh and put on a loaf and made tea for estate agents and had a chat.

So, house tidy but washing up and washing to do, nothing too bad! All done in a whirlwind. And no kids!!!!

Quite an achievement by 11.30!! Feeling very smug so just eaten a cream egg. Not so good perhaps.

Now the afternoon starts: Shaun races back from picking up (hopefully) full bags so that I can go and get Daisy and Molly. I race back here so Shaun can race over to the charity shop to drop the (full) bags off and get back her before 5pm so he can do the dogs (feed and put to bed).

ARGH!!
