I got it with the lenses kit too..but i think it is a different one to that. <BR/><BR/>Take care and I hope you get some sleep soon,<BR/>Cherie xxooxxCheriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13340596775149363180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254026.post-37479113335576480112008-05-17T21:58:00.000+09:302008-05-17T21:58:00.000+09:30Hey Mardi i thnk of you alot too and wonder how yo...Hey Mardi i thnk of you alot too and wonder how you are doing. You are being so strong and inspire alot of people...you are so allowed to cry, i am sure i would have ranted and screamed if it had been me:(<BR/><BR/>I cant help with the music thing but i thought the other day if i could remember some of the lyrics to these new songs i like then maybe i can google the lyrics and work out the name of the song?? Maybe you can do the same??<BR/><BR/>Think about the next trip Mardi, it begins earlier and so should finish earlier...so you can get some wig looking in do you think??:) Then it will be 2 down 10 to go<BR/>CharXXXCharmainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17994246142927246013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254026.post-15219470478543706452008-05-17T20:28:00.000+09:302008-05-17T20:28:00.000+09:30{{{HUGS}}}} Mardi.

I hope your next day in town goes to plan. This WILL be over soon - you are so courageous and inspiring and you probably have no idea how much your strength and endurance puts my gripes into perspective!!! In the meantime know that I am thinking of and praying for you. Be kind to yourself!<BR/>BTW - I totally agree about the posters!!! In the genetics clinic there is a whole heap of unhelpful information about various syndromes and conditions and I just think, I wouldn't be here if I didn't know about it! <BR/>xxxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254026.post-21822663076683282932008-05-17T00:01:00.000+09:302008-05-17T00:01:00.000+09:30Mardi that sounds like a real crap day to me.i wou...Mardi that sounds like a real crap day to me.i would have been totally peeved to.

I am sure I would have reacted the same way under the circumstances! And felt exactly the same about everyone else as well! But what sweet little surprises on your return home. I'm SO glad that this new concoction seems kinder than the previous one, and I guess at least you'll know what's in store for your next "dose day".<BR/>xxxxxxxYvette Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06382534884932840432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254026.post-88334696068065812002008-05-16T14:01:00.000+09:302008-05-16T14:01:00.000+09:30hey there Mardi- week one down eleven to go, and b...hey there Mardi- week one down eleven to go, and before we all know it, it will be 11 down and 1 to go....<BR/>you certainly didnt have a good day- there is nothing worse than waiting at the doctors but i know i would have reacted in the same way- if not worse:P <BR/>i hope you get to have a look at those wigs next week.<BR/><BR/>mmm love love choccies and lollies, always my cure for a bad day!<BR/><BR/>and a new camera- you know im a nikon girl- just to throw that into the ring hehe the lense i have wasnt a kit lense, we have a 18-200vr which is great because you dont have to change lenses too often, although it is quite heavy!and we have the 50mm 1.8f which is great- although i have my eye on ANOTHER lense now too - there are so many options out there now it IS confusing (but fun!!)<BR/>take care<BR/>xx<BR/>JAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254026.post-3899384494707027902008-05-16T13:53:00.000+09:302008-05-16T13:53:00.000+09:30Wow I'm exhausted just reading all that Mardi! Wha...Wow I'm exhausted just reading all that Mardi! What a hugely long and tiring day both emotionally and physically...even though you couldn't sleep later. Insomnia is a bugga, especially when you ARE tired.<BR/>And its always good to have a cry...helps to let out all those emotions!<BR/>I was home yesterday...doing the washing. I would gladly have popped down to visit you even if it was for 10 minutes! If that ever happens again - which I hope it doesn't - please ring me and I'll come down!<BR/>I got a tear in my eye when I seen the pressie left for you. That was so sweet :)<BR/>Take care hun<BR/>xxTamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254026.post-20687218040223578722008-05-16T13:24:00.000+09:302008-05-16T13:24:00.000+09:30Hey you :-)Mardi I am really sorry that the day di...Hey you :-)<BR/><BR/>Mardi I am really sorry that the day didn't go as planned :-( I imagine that without all those extra speedbumps, it's stressful enough....<BR/><BR/>What I do admire is your ability to tackle all of this head on - and that you keep your head about you while you are doing it. I bet it must be hard....but your determination to stay positive can only be a help, and not a hindrance in the grand scheme of things.<BR/><BR/>Thinking of you,<BR/>Megan xxMeganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07943805109011452414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254026.post-66242128960319282012008-05-16T12:42:00.000+09:302008-05-16T12:42:00.000+09:30hey mardi, i think of you often and admire your co...hey mardi, i think of you often and admire your courage and humour and honesty. although it doesn't feel like it right now, a better time will be right around the corner and one day you will read back over this journey and think my goodness, i got through. hope you are feeling good today. what a treasure briony is. i have the canon eos400d with ef-s 18-55 and we kept the zoom lense from my previous slr. it's a fab camera. i thought if i am going to get a new camera it may as well be a great one. i must confess tho i am very naughty and mostly use it on auto. i must make time to learn more about my camera. take carexLeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10014875610929875261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254026.post-25958016286287728352008-05-16T11:53:00.000+09:302008-05-16T11:53:00.000+09:30What a hard day you had. I think you had every rig...What a hard day you had. I think you had every right for being emotional and "over it!". Many a person would have reacted a lot worse, and a long time before you did. Don't worry about that.<BR/>Sorry you didn't get a chance to look at your wigs. Hope you get time to do that next time? And I can quite understand your reasoning - and your need for "time out" from the inquiring looks. <BR/>I'm looking at the 400D too. And I don't know about the kit lenses - i'm leaning towards choosing my own. But I don't know which ones!!! <BR/>Big hugs. Glad you have recovered well from this new chemo regime. Hope the insomnia abates. Can you buy a relaxation disc to play at night when you're a bit wound up? Would that help?kathiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02706105741161075587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254026.post-82819660031017559712008-05-16T10:36:00.000+09:302008-05-16T10:36:00.000+09:30Oh Mardi - I felt so upset for you reading your po...Oh Mardi - I felt so upset for you reading your post.

I was chatting to Briony on msn and had to go organise the kids. I could have picked her up to come here until you got home. Next time if she needs - I'm here! :D <BR/>Oohh a new camera - sounds great! I took so long to choose mine - but LOVE it...:D<BR/>I have heard good things about the 400D...apparently a good price for the features on it too.<BR/>I hope you enjoy your weekend.<BR/>I will call you sometime early next week for a catch up if you're feeling up to it. :D<BR/>Thinking of you.<BR/>Belinda<BR/>xxBelinda Venableshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12572215926891672707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254026.post-42221695664440686312008-05-16T10:30:00.000+09:302008-05-16T10:30:00.000+09:30Mardi, I agree with Janelle, please, don't be so h...Mardi, I agree with Janelle, please, don't be so hard on yourself:0)..I am so sorry to hear you had such a crapola of a day.. <BR/><BR/>You are just so gorgeous... and all this will be behind you soon.. we are here with you every step of the way..<BR/><BR/>And WOW, a brand new camera.. good for you - you deserve to spoil yourself - can't wait to see all the gorgeous photos you take with it...<BR/>Briony - what a gem!!<BR/>Take care - Helenxxxhelen karanfilovskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15400158440303503480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254026.post-60079099754813873862008-05-16T09:25:00.000+09:302008-05-16T09:25:00.000+09:30WOWEE Mardi what a MASSIVE day - please don't be h...WOWEE Mardi what a MASSIVE day - please don't be hard on yourself for having a cry, it is perfectly OK.
