Cheekychinchilla's food and stuff

All my eBay stuff sold today. Got just over £50! That'll come in handy for my trip to York next week :D
 
Well, the dog has Cushing's :( Going to nip in to work to pick up her new meds tomorrow. I feel awful for her, but hopefully now she'll be on the right treatment and will start to feel much better for it! Still sad though :(

Had my hair done again today. Slightly different red on top and a darker brown underneath :D

Lunch: Soup. Cheese on toast (HexA1 + B1) with Worcester sauce. And a bag of Snack a Jack Curl thingies (3.5)

Tea: Portion of Quorn bolognese & veggie stuff from the freezer with tomato Pasta and Sauce, salad, and dressing (0.5)

It'll mean a different type of medication for the rest of her life. It can sometimes be cured with surgery, but you have to do a lot more in depth testing to find out which of the glands is effected. Prob only worth doing if the tumours causing the issues are cancerous-and they're usually not.
So not too bad as far as scary illnesses go and hopefully she'll feel MUCH better on these meds. But still just sad that she as 'something' :( I'll be fine once it sinks in properly :)

Hey guys! Picked up Ellie's meds-which freaked me out because they're a form of chemotherapy :(

Have to keep an eye out for side effects as well as anything else strange. There is a chance it's not Cushing's or even if it is she could have other underlying illnesses too that could start to show through.
It's not over yet! :( More blood tests a week on Monday.

Tea: 2 Quorn sausages (2), beans, cheesey mushroom scambled eggs (HexA2), potato waffle (2.5), and wholemeal toast (HexB2) Tomato sauce (1)

Here's hoping that the meds will kick in quick and that Ellie starts to feel better.
 
Well done. It is so hard when things get tough. You are a star! :bighug:

Ellie seems fine so far-she had her first dose this evening with her tea. Hid the capsules in some bits of sausage Mum had got for the dogs from the chippy :p Even they got a chippy tea :eat: :rolleyes:

Date went alright :) I really enjoyed the film (we need to talk about Kevin) but I wasn't shocked or anything by it. Felt a little tension, but nothing much. Date guy on the other hand found it incredibly tense and disturbing. I'm obviously deranged :p Excellent film though and kinda glad it didn't disturb me! Excellent actors-esp the boys!

Still not sure about the guy though :( It could just be that I'm incredibly nervous and terrified of being with someone. Or it could be that I just don't 'like' him like him. Hrmph! Don't wanna lead him on but also don't want to miss out on a chance because of how I am. I KNOW I'm quite closed off from people (esp boys) and get really tense and keep myself to myself. He held my hand and kissed me a few times now and well, nothing really :( :eek: But then again I was seriously rigid with fear and stuff. *sigh*
