Good morning all from A cloudy Glasgow, where it is 10°C,
What a lovely photo of GM and Bellasnana. By any xhance is the restaurant, what we called the Green Umbrellas where the umbrellas are not green.
Enjoy the rest of your trip, GM.
I didn't have a very good day yesterday, my pain levels were so high, I feel this flare up will never settle.
It was partly my own fault, that I felt so unwell. I cannot accept that I am no longer able to go at my usual frenetic pace,
Instead of coming straight home from the Doctor's on Friday, I decided to pop in to B&M and TKMaxx on the way home. They are not actually on my way home,
To my delight, I bumped into a former high school colleague, whom I hadn't seen for years, what a boost it gave me, Many years ago, it became a standing joke, that every Saturday, I would bump into her in Debenham. Two shopaholics. It has been years since I've seen her.
However, I had to phone DH, who was panicking, because I hadnt returned home,
Later I went to get prescriptions dispensed and spent ages in the chemist, due to a mix up with the controlled drugs. The surgery had messed up again,
All I wanted to do was get home,
It wasn't to be, on the way back to my car, I kept bumping into parishioners, who were concerned about my absence.
DH was not very happy, when he realised, how unwell I looked, when I returned.
He doesn't get how lonely it is for me, being inarcerated, for he is a man of few words and I am a sociable animal. 🤫
The crux of the matter is, that I just want my life back, but it won't be happening. Adjustments are required.
For over forty years, I have always made Christmas Dinner, but DD has ordered advised me to step down from my duties, ♥️
Yesterday, she decided to do a trial run of making the turkey. I was demented.
The landline rang quite early in the morning, but the kitchen phone was nowhere to be found. DH was last to use it, although he denied all responsibility. It was eventually found upstairs it walked up 😉 and apparently, it was my fault, because I had phoned him on the landline!!!
I recognised the phone number, as DD's. This was the format for the rest of the day: landline ( if I didn't answer my mobile quickly enough) mobile. Including video calls, where I had to examine the stuffing, (my great grandmother's recipe), photos to allow me to comment on whether it was properly cooked.
She has decided that she will be down first thing this morning , so that I can make the gravy, to my liking Bang goes my day of rest!
He greatest worry was giving me food poisoning and killing me, due to my immunosuppression. ♥️ She said her hands were raw from over washing them!
Thus is a referral to Last Boxing Day, when I was very unwell, with Norovirus, DD says it was the fault of DS2, who had invited us to dinner and poisoned us all^, She keeps bringing it up.🤣
DD has struggled with dyslexia and dyspraxia all her life and I am so proud of her and how she manages her conditions.
Babydoll and her parents are planning to visit today, I have missed her so much, but presently, I am physically unable to look after her.
No church for me again, I cannot summon the energy to dress, let alone drive. The minute, I appear, I know I will be inundated with problems, so on the P.P's advice, I am laying low.
Safe journey to Ash, *OldD^ and anyone else travelling.
Best wishes to all, especially my fellow mountaineers. 💐
Have a pleasant Sunday.
