I know i keep saying it, but, i have to admit that i’m no good with this technology stuff,downloading an’ all,but you are all so good at it! It takes me FOREVER to get the headliner pic. (which is a pic of the beach in South Carolina on New Years Day).Let alone update stuff. However…………….i will try yet again.

 Well, we’ve just returned from USA for Chrimbo and New Year.Had a fab time.Secretly,I really like,January. Christmas is ok, New year to me is sad because ,although i don’t mean to, i do reflect on the people i miss and those who have passed away.

SO, come January 1st,i’m on a clean fresh start to the coming spring ,lovely weather and new resolutions!Although so far the weather is horrendous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We must do something about the back garden though.I’m certainly not a gardener.Although i love the chinese themed gardens…so beautiful. Our house is still up for sale,we’ve had viewers who have been back a couple of times, but we’re in no rush to move as yet.We’re not looking at other houses as yet until we’ve sold this.We have somewhere to move to , so no probs.

It’s ages since i was last here!

Well, our house is up for sale, in fact we have two more viewings today (one couple are coming back for the second time).Trouble is we’re in no rush to move, we don’t really know where to move to.When it sells ,we’re going to live with relatives, so that we’ll be cash buyers on the next property.The relatives house is fab, so no rush there either!!! If only i could  find a  house in a country village that overlooks the sea, but hey -ho. The header, by the way, is a pic i took on one of my walks with the dog.

We’re off to USA for Chrimbo and New Year, to see our eldest, which we’re all excited about. Gorgia -Michigan-Gorgia-home.

Our middle one,is still enjoying his new job, which were all relieved about.

Our youngest (12),retrieved his beloved Batman cape (that he gave to a boy down the road)and kept it on all day!We’re just a little concerned about that one. Mind you it was lovely to see him running around the garden with his ‘old friend’ again, if you see what i mean! Here he is with his ‘Spawn’ cape.

My number one is coming home on Sat !!!!!! I CAN’T WAIT !!!I really do miss her.I miss having a girl in the house.I love my boys dearly, but girls are such good fun.Even when she was born, i was so chuffed that i had a daughter, it was like having a doll to play with! I used to change her outfits at least a couple of times a day, and the amount of ribbons hairslides, scrunchies…..it was great fun.When she got older, i used to teach her to say the names of all the countries of the world, as her Grandfather used to travel alot, and he was well impressed.She was such a chatterbox and so loving….she still is. Roll on Saturday.

I’m feeling good.

           I’m going back for a check-up day after tomorrow, but other than waking up during the night feeling hot(i don’t know wether i’m having hot flushes or i am hot!!!…..i can’t be quite sure) but on the whole i’m feeling better than i thought i would.I’m not into taking medication unless it’s the last resort, if you know what i mean.But…I am taking omega 3 capsules, just to prevent my hair,nails, skin etc .from drying out, and it seems to be working.I was determined to get well for my nephews wedding last weekend, which was great and i’m off to Barcelona in a couple of weeks so i’m so looking forward to that!

 All my family and friends have been so helpfull and kind that actually i am quite overwhelmed.It is times of ill-health, loss, etc., that you really know which friends stand by you and help.Hubby has been great and so understanding and has worked so hard whilst i’ve been unwell. I’ve had lots of flowers and cards and well wishes , so thanks to you all!!!

    I was actually looking forward to having it done and getting  back on track. I wasn’t at all nervous, even when going to theatre! Now it’s all over the worst effect of all is the wind!!! Did you know that wind  is the next painful thing to gallstones.My oh my, ain’t that the truth!

  Anyway, i’m not allowed to do ANYTHING, which sounds real good, but now i’m really hacked off because i’m sat there and i can see things need to be done, dusting, hoovering, magazines to be staightened. Hubby is off until next Tuesday and he is doing HIS best.Child number three, boy(12), reluctantly, inbetween his grunts,helps out.  The middle child, boy(20 years old) has dissapeared to his girlfriends and when i do see him to ask him to help he’s always too busy to finish the job off! My first born girl (,23)is hoping to fly home from USA in a fortnight, but to be truthfull, she’s too much of a princess to know what housework is all about. My eldest sister is coming over today, to help out, i’ll get her to clean the toilets whilst she’s at it!  No ,i’d better not

1)Litter.

2)Bad manners ,which also means  lack of respect for other people.

3)War…..cruelty to people can be added to this one.

4)People who arrive late.I would rather be half an hour early than one minute late.

5)Periods!!!!
