A Succession of Moments: Busy Busy

Busy Busy

Posted by Cath at 01:46

This week seems to have flown by. I guess being busy has it's advantages. It does mean that i am going on holiday in a little over a fortnight! For anyone who doesn't know we won a holiday to LA(well Hubby did) and we go very soon. I haven't had a huge amount of time to get excited about things but am slowly starting to get organised about things now. We are staying in Anaheim and will be doing the usual Disneyland and Universal bits as well as maybe a trip down the coast to San Diego which will be very nostalgic as we spent our honeymoon there.
Monday i made some cards for the IACW blog using some stamps i got from Joanne which are Stampin Up! and are completely gorgeous and addictive! Corey and i have been having crafty days too. Monday we made hats and Tuesday we did painting.

I've been out and about this week to Birmingham. Had a lovely day shopping there on Wednesday. Please see the below picture and laugh. It's me enjoying some uber yummy dark chocolate from Hotel chocolat!
I managed too at last find a decent silver chain for my beads to go on and some of the sets on there look absolutely lush. More scrummy beads going up today but i am resisting!
Yesterday i spent the day in a graveyard, literally. I went to try and found my grandmothers grave. She was buried a pauper in a common grave so it is unmarked and although i have the plot and grave number it was near impossible to find so it will mean another visit. I did manage to find my mums adoptive parents grave though so my visit wasn't in vain.
Also forgot to mention that i had been to the hospital about my voice/cough. He thinks the cough and sore throat are down to reflux so that will mean a visit to the doctors again and probably a referral to the gastroenterologist. In terms of my hoarseness he said it is because my vocal cords are not closing properly when i speak. He came to this conclusion by putting a camera up my nose! I'm sort of glad i didn't know beforehand i would be having this done or i would have probably chickened out. It wasn't too bad actually and at least i know what's wrong now. So i have to be referred to a speech therapist! Am now waiting for an appointment.

Ew! Camera up the nose :( Glad it wasn't too bad and you have an answer. I have terrible reflux too - on omeprazole but sometimes even that's not enough. Glad I don't have a cough though! Great pictures of you and little 'un. How big is HE??? Wow, LA! I'm not jealous of the flight, but I'd love to visit the USA..... Take care.
