For Today… 25th February 2016.
Outside my window…it’s grey and dull and very cold
I am thinking… about taking up plate spinning as a hobby!
I am thankful… for my health which is proving better than I thought. Before Christmas I had been convinced that my blood pressure was a problem and I now know it isn’t. I can walk 6 miles without stopping. do 15,000 steps in a working day and have lost a stone and a half since last October. Yay me!
I am thinking about… various young friends who are now pregnant. It’s a big step and I can’t but help feel they’re “dabbling”.
I am creating… a storyboard for a book – more to follow
I am going… to Manchester…. never again. I went on the tram this morning to give blood and was dismayed by the heaving inconsiderate masses.
I am wondering… what the next 5 years will hold: Heather is going to work soon, Jo too probably. Ashley is starting secondary school and I really don’t want to carry on in this job.
I am reading… again! Tarzan, The 100 Year Old Man who Climbed Out The Window, and more all thanks to a Kindle I revived recently.
I am hoping… Ashley’s foot gets sorted. We ended up in casualty the other day after his wonky feet got worse. The left one is so out-turned he’s walking on the bottom of his leg.
I am learning… to allow others to take responsibility and not to carry the load all the time..
In my garden… I have my eyes on some garden gnomes and large pot plants.
In my kitchen… evidence of our diet is all over the place. There’s fruit, veg, a soup maker and multiple award cards for Gill and Heather’s Slimming World successes.
A favourite quote for today…
Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak;
courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.
Winston Churchill
