Thoughts from the frontline - 41

1 minute read time.

Wednesday came early this week. Well, it felt like it did!

I'm not sure where this week has gone but it feels like it was only the weekend yesterday. Slow down world, that's an order. I don't want life to go so quick, I want to savour every day and make sure that I make the most of it.

But does that happen? Well, not really does it? Days come and days go and even for us with possible shortened prognosis it is still easy to get to the end of a day and wonder "now, what did I actually do today?". And all you did was just "do life" as does anyone. And you know what? there is nothing wrong with that.

I quite like getting to the end of the day and thinking, now that wasn't a special special day, just an ordinary one doing ordinary things. There are a few in my family/friends circle that seem to think that I now need to make every day a special one. Well, I don't! :-)

We did go for a walk on Wednesday to look at some possible new offices for me. I have decided that I need to move the office from where it is now (about 20 miles away) to one somewhere in the village or close by. Quite simply because I can't be arsed to drive all that way every day! I like the idea of just walking to the office in the morning and it will certainly make the process of getting back to work part time and then full time much easier.

And there could be good news - the space we looked at yesterday is possibly just right to squeeze in a small photographic studio! Let's hope I can do a deal with the landlord...

Now you folks out there in Macmillan land, I have started to seriously consider writing that book some of you keep suggesting. Should I do it? Should it just be about me and my cancer or do some of you want a staring role? Suggestions will help me to decide and ideas for a title will certainly be well received!!

So, repeat after me... "I am not a victim" and "I like jelly"

Keep smiling...

    That would be a great idea and can I suggest you put T's in with it.  I love when you both blog as we see both views. In fact have missed her blogs lately.

    I agree about the ordinary days too, one of the nicest days we've had in a long time is when just the pair of us went to the Tin Villa and did nothing.... well almost nothing.
