Waffling on Account of Feeling Pleased To Be Back

I'm back...and this time it's...

JUST FOR FUN!

So don't ask about mum...Won't tell anyway...What I will say however is that today the unkillable old dear ate some of my homemade Leek soup. "Mmm" she squeaked "This is velly nice" (teeth missing) And so the saga goes on...

On my front things are hanging steady, not too much to cry about except for daily mother- related back pain (lifting her has taken its toll on my vertabras and surrounding tissues.
But I mustn't complain otherwise I would lose all of my readers, who, I'm sure, have remained very loyal during my absence...

This break away wasn't due to blogging boredom but to my PC getting ill. After ages of tinkering and scratching of heads away it went to the docs and away it stayed. But now thanks to Dr.Bytes of Rayleigh I am virus free and in possession of a new Hard Drive.

Have an unbelievably big To-Do list for this week. Beginning with phone calls...Hiss and double hiss...Jaunty taxi rides to Hospitals...The making of umpteen blooming sugar free jellies, searching for a fancy frock for Friday, ( I am allowed out sometimes), chatting with District Nurses, especially like Sandra, all bubbly she is and full of non-stop diabetes related wisdom...Also be popping to local butcher for Lamb Necks.
Reminds me, mine has been giving me what for, must have been the acrobatics caused by the falling wardrobe.

Oh well I do have a few new bits and bobs to cheer me, bought several 'new' handbags lately also a few books, one all about 'England' edited by Richard Ingrams (he of Oldie magazine and Private Eye) it's crammed with warm and wonderful snippets by writers throgh the ages who had something stirring and unsentimental too say about England. Also to read is Wilkie Collins's 'The Woman In White'. Looking forward to the day when I'm relaxed enough to turn page after page of the frightener without any stoppages...
Another big buy ( £2) was an ornamental oil lamp, shade amber, metal base black decorated in a gypsy style. Naiive flowers in gaudy colours.
And for another £2 a pair of sandwich cake tins. Ideal for a 7 incher.



A new picture will soon head this blog on account of me getting a little browned orf with the Brittania Bird.
