Cheekychinchilla's food and stuff

But SH*T! My Mum (who's in Tenerife) was in a coach accident today. I don't know too much about it yet, and tbh it's getting upsetting talking about it, but it sounds like it was really bad. Apparently when they crashed the cliff wall/old lava flow came through her window! She doesn't know why or how but she'd moved to the aisle seat pretty much as it happened. She's cut and bruised and apparently her top is all cut up and ripped. I really don't know much more and she was all muddled and upset obv :(

I wish I could be there!!!
 
Just seen Rach mention this, much love to you two Kel, and to the mothership, she's a lucky lady to be in one piece still, and at least she's safe now. I know you'll feel better when you can see her though x
 
EEkss, oh gosh! Really doesn't sound too great. All good thoughts out your way, I hope everything will be alright. Hugs. xx
 
Hope all is well with her :-( it's so horrible when something happens away from home and there's nothing you can do to help x
 
Thanks all :) She went to the hospital today to be checked out. The guy who ran the tour yday took her and paid for everything!! She was assessed, had some xrays, and been given some meds. She's ok, but has some impact trauma injuries.
She sounds kinda ok today, although I've only heard from her by text. But yeah, not too much physical damage. I just really wish I could be there.

Hiya! Hope all is going well with you and I hope your Mum is OK.

What's your recipe for Mac and cheese?

My Mac & Cheese is a packet of Pasta N Sauce macaroni cheese ;) I open the packet all by myself :p

Aye I'm ok. Just exhausted from work. But feel much better now. Mum seems to be doing ok. The meds she's been given are making her feel ill so I told her to stop them and just take her regular illness meds. She has a few chronic pain illnesses so is on high dose pain killers and antiinflammatories anyway.x
 
So I survived this week at work without dying from my virus, not dying from stress and exhaustion, only minor injuries, a bloody paw print on each shoe, some pee and blood on my uniform, and my contact allergy on my hands only mildly flaring up!

Also I HAVE 20 DAYS OFF! TWENTY!!! Then I'm only in 2 days (emergency shifts) and off for another week.

Good news everyone!! said in the style of Professor Farnsworth from Futurama..... So I got weighed today in work 2.5 kg off!! That's over 5lb :eek::faint2: How the bloody hell did that happen?! I don't get losses like that! Wow :D

Congratulations on your loss! 2.5kg and a shiny new 4 stone sticker :clap: Well done hun!! Also i'm really sorry to hear about your mum's accident, I hope she's ok - it sounds like she's being well looked after :). xxx
 
19 days off! Not 20. Dammit! Lol
I had a nice lie-in, but I still feel exhausted. Think it might take a few days to recover from illness, massive stress, and loooong shifts at work. I did clean out the bunnies (I have Simon back with his new wife ;)), put Ralph in the garden run for a couple of hours, de-poo'd the garden, did some washing, hoovered, and a general clean and tidy. It really needed doing coz I'd only done the bare necessities after work. And my Sister's a lazy bugger and never does any house work!
No plans for tomorrow except to get a shower LOL!
