what have i been up too?

the past few weeks have flown by in a mixture of illness, grumps, and fed-up-ness. the illness was a minor everyday kind of cold, which in terms of colds was low level. the first cold ive caught in a year, i thought perhaps that i would feel it more with the pots, although ive been poorly, its not as bad as all that kind of poorly. ive been on a couple of days out, with cold, first was to harrods. my niece wanted to go so last wednesday we packed a lunch, paid the congestion charge (mmmmm) and drove to kensington. luckily there was a parking spot outside, three hours later we returned to the car. twenty pounds lighter after paying for three teas and two diet cokes, yes twenty pounds. afterwards we sat in the car in hyde park eating our packed lunches watching the rain spill down the windows, the geese waddled across the road, and the odd person walk there soaking wet muts.


spoke to the geneticist by phone. due to see prof p end of september beginning of october. fingers crossed.

also have an appt with the first neuro on wednesday, what joy! at least i will know the results of the emphysemia test.

also had a kings appt with the cardiologist. guess what? more tests, three in total, scan of my lungs and heart, being injected with something to make my heart beat fast, and erm something else which ive forgotten. they want my aunts records shipped over from the hospital that she died at, we just need to find the death certificate to see where she died, it was over fourty years ago, so maybe the records dont even exist anymore, yet they are trying.

hope this post is coherent, my head is jumbled, ive been reading everyones blogs, i just thought my replies would be dismal or mumbled. hopefully im back.
