    Hi Louise


    How are you today?  I must say, you do go out late at night to walk Benji don’t you?  Make sure you're safe, I don’t think I'd dare do that.  Yes, Marie and I did have a busy day just chatting yesterday, its very naughty of us, but I'm making the most of it in case I soon get a job.  Although I did say to my husband this morning (while I was struggling to walk to the bathroom), how on earth am I ever going to work with these problems??  It wouldn’t look very good would it, limping into an interview?


    I took my poem off the site, I don’t know why really.  I think I just wanted to say a few words instead, but your poem for your Mum was lovely Louise, you should post it if you feel like it.  I would have liked to have done both, but didn’t want to hog the page, but I suppose no one would mind would they?  I’ll probably change my mind again in a few days !!!  Typical Libran.  No I didn’t get any flowers for my Dad, I was going today, but that idea’s gone out the window now.  But I did write a card for him.  My Mum had loads of cards here (various) that she used to buy everytime she went into town, and I found one for him that was very appropriate, so put it up this morning.  Silly really, but I don’t care what people might think.  I’ll more than likely put it up next year as well.


    How did the sponsored run go?? Was it far??  I don’t think I could run for a bus at the minute!!  I haven’t looked at your site yet, I will do that when I’ve posted my messages, then come back to you, and I'm sure you're NOT the ‘blurred old one’, I'm looking forward to seeing it.  I’m off now to have a look.  Love jayne xxx

    Crikey-house work is boring!!!! just made myself a coffee and nipped back on here quickly whilst i drink it. i really should put your poem back on Jayne,together with the other tribute youve written.it wont take up that much room,and it's lovely and should be there really.

    I looked at Louise's site last night.I didn't see any one blurred-or old- i saw a load of smiling children,and a very nice picture of a person whom i assumed was Louise,with one of her pupils. isn't it funny-the perceptions that we have of ourselves??

    I am sorry that your knee is playing up today.it would have been lovely to have got some flowers for your dad,but i think that the card is lovely too.Why shouldn't we write cards for our parents if we want? I wrote a card for my mum on mothers day,although it wasn't a mothers day card,and i put it by the umbrella plant.i felt silly doing it,but why should I? i clearly wanted to,and needed to,and in future i shall do it,and not think twice.Its my little way of showing my love for my mum.It doesn't interfere with any one else and if they think im potty-I DON'T CARE!!!!!

    Dont know wether you're about at the mo.i here another few mins,then best get off again.XXXXXX

    Hi again Louise


    I've just looked at the site, and its great.  I can well understand now why you're so shattered at the end of each day!!! So many activities all going on.  I listened to the interview in the health category, and I think we can safely say that Mary (I hope I've got the name right), thought it was TERRIFIC !!!  It did make me laugh, lovely.  What smashing children, it must make you feel so good knowing you’ve taken a part in their childhood.  They will always remember you Louise, when they’ve all grown up and tell their own children about school, your name will be mentioned, I think its lovely.  I'm going to listen to it again in a minute.  I see you took Cuddles and Joe home with you for the weekend?? You kept that one quiet Louise! Well I hope you’ve had a good day, and the run went well, speak to you later, take care, love jayne xxx

    Just had a thought-(must be catching it from you Jayne!) but, do you take a calcium supplement at all?? Dont know if i'm talking out of my bottom but just wondered wether or not an increase in calcium would help with your bone problem?? i do know that you have to be careful about not taking too much and it might only be effective on youngsters because theyre still growing and us adults are not, but is it worth a go?? My youngest should take a calcium supplement because he's dairy intolerant and although he has soya products with added calcium its still not enough.however, we do forget to give them to him so i'm going to be for it when he gets older.he'll probably have problems and it will definately be my fault.Anyway,am closing the doctors surgery now and getting back to housework. my day is just packed with fun!!! hours of it,you know!!!!!

    I'm glad you said that about the cards Marie, I will carry on doing it too, and i dont care what people think, it makes us feel better so what does it matter what people think.  Perhaps we're all nuts together??

    Hi again Marie, no i dont take anything, i know i should.  i occasionally take cod liver oil, which i absolutely love!!!  I always liked it even when i was at nursery school, i used to queue up for seconds, how mad is that??  But i should take something because i've had this knee trouble since i was 4 years old !! all my life really.  I've had operations on both knees, when i was about 18 i had my left one done.  They took a lot of the bone out.  I think its just either arthritus or rheumatism (cant spell either), but i dont really know the difference in them.  Whatever it is, it hurts and makes some days so frustrating at not being able to get about.  I wouldnt mind but i'm not even 50 yet, God knows what i'll be like when i get really old.
