Hi folks. I've just realised I've not blogged for nearly a month; this borders on the unacceptable. I don't have much of an excuse either. I had a never ending cough followed by a never ending nose cold and then we went away for a week to Suffolk. I've had three lots of antibiotics and the cough has come back again. It's really gone deep into my chest now. No wonder I'm feeling low and useless. I just finished a book called 'Finding the Still point' by someone Mahoney; I've given it to a friend already. To be honest I found it more annoying than useful. He kept talking about the number 5 being the still point that we all want to try and get to in every situation bringing it either up or down to that point but he also talked about finding your Motto. A couple of years ago it would have been to sing and dance for God but I can't say that anymore. So I got stuck at that point and said what's the point in continuing? but it was a short book so I finished it, but I still don't have my Motto; what I'm supposed to be doing with my life.
Bye for now, I'll try and write sooner next time

Every day's a Holiday
24/8/2017
I thought this a couple of Sundays ago. I don't know where it came from. It suddenly popped into my mind during the church sermon, but had nothing to do with the sermon I don't think. I had a warm glowing feeling that everything is all right and there is never any reason to worry or panic about anything. Now if you know me at all you wouldn't ever believe me saying that, as all my life I've been a worrier and the glass has always been half empty not half full. I'm usually a regular Eyore. I wish I knew what had happened to change me. because it would be worth a fortune; like winning the lottery only better because it could help so many people. just keep saying to yourself 'Every day's a holiday' and it could change your outlook on life.; less worry; more relaxed; not bothered about anything.

Gutted
22/8/2017
Ever since our total eclipse of the sun in the deepest recesses of Cornwall in 1999 we have been planning on seeing another one and we had it all worked out to go to the one across America in 2017. It seems like yesterday. We knew where we were going to stay and when to go forever and then I got M.S. we haven't been on a plane for 8 years. Our passports have expired now, so we have to live with the cloudy glimpse we had of the Eclipse of 1999 for the rest of our lives now.
At least we have that and we did experience the darkness and silence, but still we were gutted after all the planning not to be able to go after all.
Hope any of you were able to see it for real

It's offical 10 Stones exactly
7/8/2017
Yeah I am officially 10 stone and have been for a few days now. I was 5St something last year. How did this happen? I'll have to get new clothes again for a different reason now. I've been watching the World Athletics. The runners especially don't have an once of fat on them. But I can't run or exercise like they can, so why shouldn't I be allowed to eat what I want when I'm hungry and drink when I'm dry as the old Irish folksong 'the Moonshiner' says.
I expect most people feel this way. I'm thinking people will think I'm lazy, but before I got M.S. I could never sit still; now I am the opposite I very rarely move. I've still got a cough and am taking antibiotics for it and now I have a cold, so I'm feeling pretty lousy today. Hope you are feeling better.

Dead end
24/7/2017
Had a dream the other night I was driving with my husband and another car. I'm not sure if it was a fun chase or the other car was after us anyway we turned off onto a little side road that kept getting narrower until there was only room for us and our car is quite small. Finally we came to the end of the road. we could see that it led us back on to the main road but it was just a little gap closed with a wire fence. motor bikes came through it and I thought we probably could. there was a large house right by our side and I knocked the door and asked if we could go through by cutting the rails or something. I don't think it was allowed. I woke up thinking of my difficulty in swallowing and if the narrow fence had anything to my narrow swallow and how it was stopping me from being on the main road.
Funny things dreams are aren't they. I want my dream to point me in a direction with my life. I don't think I've had that one yet.

one clash of thunder and 2 drops of rain
21/7/2917
we were promised thunder storms and at 11 pm we had one crack of thunder and about 2 drops of rain so we went to bed disappointed as we thought that was it. then at 1.30 am the skies lit up like the 4th of July in the U.S. or 'The day of the Triffids'. I though we would all go blond from the continual light flashes which were so intense and then the thunder rolled on for hours and then the rain pored down like Noah's ark. A small village in Cornwall was practically washed away.
I'll never doubt the weather forecast again.
Oh no it's getting hot and humid again next week. My ankle is swollen and I don't feel like doing anything. I'm 9st 11 again. Aw!

So you think it's all over well now it is
13/7/2017
Just watched Johanna Konta play Venus Williams in the semi finals at Wimbledon and Kointa lost. She still made British history for being the first British woman to reach the semifinals in about 40yuears.
I am in a dilemma because my old college mates want to hold a reunion in London, but I'm not able to walk miles on trains and tubes carrying my luggage or even just myself. It's a sticky problem I might just have to gibe it a miss.
Aww!!!
