Newcastle, OntarioI'm finally back from a week of house hunting, and we are waiting to hear if they will accept our conditional offer for a house we like. It's an older house but has almost everything we were looking for. It would be super if you could all keep your fingers crossed for us to sell our house quickly. I also came home with antibiotics for tonsillitis and have badly swollen glands. First time in my life I have needed antiobiotics for a silly cold. My glands are so swollen I was beginning to think I might have a mild case of mumps. So much for getting easter bunnies made!!!
Hugs,
Brenda

Nova Scotia,CanadaOh,I'm crossing fingers for your house :pray: Just keep in mind, if it's meant to be,it will be. One of the teachers I work with was so disapointed when she lost her "dream house" to another persons offer but a few weeks later she found a house that she liked even more and she is very happy there.
Hope you feel better soon, Brenda. Rest and take care of yourself. We tend to get sick when we are stressed and you need to listen to your body. :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:
Back Road BearsBrenda,
Sorry to hear about your cold and tonsilitis. Though I had my tonsils out when I was a kid they grew back when I was in my 20's and I've had tonsilitis a couple of times now. Not fun. I hope it goes away quickly.
How exciting you've found a house. I do hope it all works out for you! Such an exciting and nerve-racking time!!! Keep us posted!
Hugs and Prayers,
Daphne
Posts: 3,540Daphne I've never heard of anyone's tonsils growing back...are you sure they took out the right thing? 
I am sorry to hear you're so under the weather, Brenda, as the others have said, it will be because you're so stressed just now. Take good care of yourself, and keep warm :hug:
I'll keep everything crossed that this is your 'to be' home
Dolls N DreamsGet well soon, and I hope you get the house you want!!!!
Newcastle, OntarioThanks for all the good wishes! I am definitley taking advantage of a clean house and no one to look after - I'm going to nap the week away, or until I feel better.
Daphne, I know what you mean about re-growing tonsils. My daughter, Sarah, and our grandson also are on antibiotics for tonsilitis. Sarah was a little surprised as she had them removed in grade nine, but has apparently grown a nice new set, much to her disgust LOL! Apparently, if all of the root isn't removed, they can grow back. When Sarah's were removed, they were so bad they were disintegrating and apparently they couldn't have removed all of the roots and now she has a nice new pair!
Hugs,
Brenda

That's so funny! I've got everything crossed as well for ya!
I'm sick too..... really bad head coald.... I can just feel a sinus infection starting as well! UGGG.......... My hubby went to the store to pick up my favorite brand of OTC sinus medicine.... and guess what all the pseudoephedrine has been replaced by some other drug... it doesn't seem the same to me either....

Past Time BearsBig congrats on your new house, Brenda . . . hope you're feeling better!
Newcastle, OntarioThanks for all the good wishes and I'm sure it will help! We just got word that our conditional offer was accepted and now we have until May 31st to sell ours.
Kim, I'm sorry you have a cold - I've never had a sinus infection (maybe I shouldn't say that either). Why is it as soon as we find something that really works, they go and "improve" it, only it never works as well!!!! Hope you feel better soon. I have literally slept round the clock since going to bed last night. I was on the couch this afternoon and started three shows on TV, only to wind up sleeping through the end of them. I'm happy to report that I was able to eat scrambled eggs for supper, first solid food I've been able to swallow since Wednesday, so the antibiotics are definitely working Yeeaaay!
Hugs,
Brenda
Back Road BearsCongrats on the house!!!
I'm sure you'll sell your house within 2 months!!! My crossables are crossed too! :)
I'm sorry to hear that tonsils growing back has happened to someone other than me but at the same time I'm relieved as no one else has ever heard of such a thing. I'll never forget how shocked I was when the doctor told me my tonsils were irritated.... Um, hello? I don't have them!!! Haven't since I was 7 years old. Are you really a doctor??

Now comes the dreaded part, MOVING! 
Apple Dumpling DesignsOoooh...how fun. I love the new house feel...the moving...not so much...but once you get there and are finding a new home for all your stuff...I just love that part.
Good Luck...get well!!!
Oh Brenda congratulations!!!!!!!!!!
Good luck on selling your house... you can do it... we did ours in a month (and at Christmas time.. the worst month for selling a house!)
Keeping everything crossed for you.... well, except for my eyes... I need to be able to see to sew and drive
Oh Kim, I know what you mean....
and guess what all the pseudoephedrine has been replaced by some other drug... it doesn't seem the same to me either....
In Illiniois we still have the ability to get the good old drug... we only have to go to the pharmasicts counter, give him our drivers license, and sign... (LOL... "only")
Budd Bears BoutiqueCongrats on the new house!
I hope you feel better soon. :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:
Keeping my fingers crossed for your house!
Wow. Nothing like packing up everything you own; putting your house on the market; AND being sick, simultaneously. That stuff goes together like fish and bicycles.
Fingers crossed and warm, hopeful wishes sent, that you both 1) get better and 2) get your house sold ASAP, so you can safely and securly pursue your new house!
I know the stress of that hideous wait period, as does every homeowner.
Good luck!
