It seems I'm a patient now!

Morning lovely ladies!

Cannot understand why my Apple Watch didn’t register me standing lots yesterday? My body says I did!!!!

i got engrossed in Channel 5 last night, a really insightful programme about Wallis Simpson, did anyone else see it? 

Its awful dull and damp out there this morning, doesn’t inspire much.....

Hi Lovely moomy,!,,

yes i saw it too.,,

(I am not always watching TV,it just seems like it!!)

I found it interesting that the narrater knew her...I think.

Once upon a time in my dim and distant youth,When private nursing,I looked after a man who’s wife had met her.

She was a lovely lady,and so was her husbamd.

Anyway,she was very young and had been invited to a dinner party to “make up the numbers”.

She told me that WS wasn’t really a beauty,but that she made you feel like the most important person in the room”,which seemed to be born out by the Narrater.

Ultimately,I think it was a sad story,it seems like it to me.

i (did keep wondering why she didnt leave him and go back to her husband....but that was just me....surely nobody can MAKE you marry them-have I missed something?)xx

of course I wouldnt have said that to her..

in those days I was very proper

sorry I was a bit quiet yesterday I had a bit of a bad time with someone I love very much,followed by a tossy-turny night....of “how COULD I be so cruel and heartless,etc etc..”.but all well this morn...have woken up and apologised.She said she doesnt know what I am referring to!!

(is it just me...or do I really live in a parallel universe??xx)...

(may I also take this opportunity to apologise for my spelling and grammar...my tongue runs away with me and it is such a freedom and so nice not to be in School and be corrected,but I WILL try harder..)

Hi Violetsniff,

sorry about your perceived rift but glad no harm seems to have been done. 

i suppose that was Wallis’ downfall, which came over in the programme, that although she was no beauty she had a stonking, huge, alluring personality. I guess HRH would have found her if she hadn’t agreed, wherever she was. In the hindsight of history I think we ended up with the better King as a result? What do you think?

..Hmmm...interesting ....moomyand I think you are right..yes ...that is very true 

i love our(ultimate) Queen ,she is so SENSIBLE somehow.x

Hello all X Sorry you had a problem with your friendVioletsniff, and sorry you are wheezy moomy, hope it settles without steroids!

Alocal walk today as we are both v tired after all the clearing up from the window replacement. They are fab, well worth it. We had a pub lunch in the way, fish and chips as usual for me the safe option. Great to get out, but still much fiddling with kitchen roll under my instep.

,Have carried on with clearing out, am in a roll. Finding things I had forgotten I had. Inspired by Snowys Mum, who said 2 bin bags, one charity shop and one tip! Progress slow but steady. Love to all xx

Sounds good, Seaspirit! I wish I could get hubs to clear out stuff! (Yes he’s a hoarder!) 

I too hope I will get away without steroids, am doing all I can!

Ooo,hope you can get on top of that wheeze,moomy!!

Take care.xx..

sorry ...have only just seen your post...

love the idea of two bin bags,for decluttering!!

I had an old nursey friend here the other day,her hubby is now Manager of local Charity shop,and I gave her some things which were too heavy.It was SO LOVELY to see her again.

I didnt think she would want to come in as not wanting to catch my cold,but she sort of hung about so I asked her to come in for a cuppa...

Quelle Domage!!I hadnt put the rubbish out or hoovered!!But I just have to learn that people come to see me not the silly old flat...and we had a fantasric hour and a half,catching up!!

I am going to put this under the heading “Ways and Means of Getting Out and Meeting People”

i wouldnt have caught up with her otherwise!!xx

Hope all okay today???

Finally been (had postponed from last week,as didn’t want to take my cold to Surgery))toDocs,about my hip pain....,he was nice and I was determined to get an xray (as someone said they are told not to give them )...and he quite happily wrote out a form for me to have one.The Docs seem to do more like that since I had cancer.(although he wasn’t very worried about it being debillitating enough-good)

(They readily put me on antibiots and everything,and in the old days I had to beg for them.In fact occasionally I have actually said “are you sure?”)

Been to gym and did a little cursory bike work and asked the Doc if this was alright?(he is well known for being good with joints)and he said bikes dont really affect hips.

Xxxx

He was everso nice,(which encouraged me to talk for England),I was still talking i think when he opened the door,saw me thro,and I had left the Surgery,and was half way home.

I think I just needed reassurance really,about all sorts.

Told him about stopping that tab,(V)and he said it would be ok cos i had been on a low dose,just reduce slowly.

Good for you, Violetsniff! Hope the X-ray doesn’t tell about joint nasties, if so then you’ll be in good tennis company I guess as Andy Murray is having trouble......

I'm coughing up a bit but not nasty stuff and chest still feels ok, keeping up all the inhalers and so far peak flow is ok. 

Its been a busy day, did cleaning, 2 loads of washing (dried outside, yay!) and then baked a lemon sponge cake, even managed a wee tinkle on the piano! 

Choir starts Thursday, hope the cough disappears in decent time! BP and Yoga tomorrow too.....
