|
Tomorrow it is June (already!!!!) - yet here it is still like April.... I've managed to survive the worst winter (health wise) for a long time. The weather here has been pretty dire and recently in May we had 17 days of constant rain with just one glimpse of the sun. The cold/chill I got when the heating and the boiler started leaking before Christmas just seemed to stay with me month after month. All in all it has been a winter I don't wish to remember in any shape or form.
The result of all this 'feeling off color' was several bouts of bronchitis accompanied by totally unsocial behavior.... I didn't want to see, or talk to anybody. Any visitors I had got short shrift, and rarely got beyond the front door and I was a totally unsociable excuse for a human being
....But things are looking up now and I'm feeling - if not 100% - a lot better and a little more sociable. The 'ticker' and the arthritis are 'bearable' but I haven't slept really well for sometime. I now face the task of chasing my tail and trying to catch up with what is happening, but give me a couple of weeks and I should be back among the land of the living again! One advantage (?) of being 'off color' has been the 'effortless' wight loss since Christmas... I've lost a total of 36lbs!!!!

Hi Mum! Sent you a message on skype yesterday and this morning but have not heard back. Perhaps you haven't seen it yet. Call me later. I should be around for a while.

Great to see you posting again Carole but sorry that you've had such a bad winter and fingers crossed with the better weather you'll feel a bit better too.But take care and dont push yourself and dont overdo things.
Thinking about you
Love and God Bless
Emmyxx
ps Carole re those 36lbs you lost I think they found their way over here to Scotland.

Thanks for the kind words and best wishes everyone - they really do mean a lot....
I'm slowly reading through what seems to be a mountain of 'posts' and I now know what people like Susan Boyle feel like when the postman calls or when they switch on the computer - it's quite daunting......
But I shall take my time - no more are those 'stress filled days' for me. I've noticed over these recent months that my organizational 'skills' have all but disappeared. At the moment I couldn't organize a party in a brewery - just the thought reduces me to a wreck !!!! I'll be making sure, in future, that my 'PC Time' is liberally interspersed with moments like this.........

Hey! That sounds great to me!! If you need help with that party in the brewery I would love to help! I dined with friends in a micro brewery last week so I feel qualified for the job

Kelly's account has been suspended ...she is a known spammer. We won't be hearing from her again under this name.

Thanks for that Nuccia
Just how you manage to keep up with all that I'll never know.
Is it possible they could just re-register using a different name?
