'Twas the night before the colonoscopy

Not a creature was stirring not even a something-that-rhymes-with oscopy.....

Ok this week has been full full full.

Nate started Kindergarten on Monday, he was adamant that he would cry when I left him but he kept the tears at bay, turned out he loved it and loved Mrs Troost's acting skills too. They (her and Miss Aroney) were playacting "Why you don't try to go 'in' the 'out' door" into the bathroom. Nate has told everyone he met, that silly Mrs Troost tried to go through the wrong door and crashed into the wall, all said with the same excited voice 'that kid' does on the HBA ad.
All Aussies will know the one, 'The crocodile came and bit me into parts, pieces. And my head went that way and my legs went that way'

Josh started daycare full time this week as well, just on Tuesdays. He did half a day last tuesday and a whole day this week, he loved it!

Contrary to the title of this post it is now the night after the colonoscopy, yeah ok it has taken me this long to post this. I had the -as my Dad so eloquently puts it - 'tunnel exam' yesterday. There were 3 x 2-3mm polyps removed from my small intestine. I have to wait the results come monday or tuesday before I find out if they are pre-cancerous. Not feeling very happy about it, I went in thinking nothing could possibly be wrong and here there were 3 sneaky polyps in there and I had no idea! It just makes me want everyone to have a check up done. The preparation isn't very nice but the actual procedure is a piece of cake! They even gave me a DVD of the event! It was actually quite fascinating if you don't think about where they actually are taking the footage from.

Ok so anyone interested enough to be reading my blog please please please get a check up especially if you have a family history of bowel cancer.
