The Last Week Has Disappeared ... If Anyone Finds It Can They Return It!!!

So much for keeping in touch - the last week has gone, I have missed birthdays, I have missed your news - I am a poor friend.

Anyway - it was Mum's birthday over the weekend, which was good.  She is not emotionally very well at all - Having suffered from nervous problems all her life the last few months has really taken it's toll.  Still on the Sunday she had Nick & Brenda come over in the afternoon ... and what she didn't know is that they were also going to bring the 4 boys.  So that was a real treat for her.  A lovely afternoon was had by us all.

For me it was a bit hectic as I drove to Exeter (30 minute drive) to collect Claire from the hospital and take her home (their car is very low-slung) ... it was great to see her getting home, all be it very wobbly.  I went round Monday morning, as well, and she was already a little stronger.

New fridge-freezer arrived Monday afternoon, as my last one died.  Now I have a new shiny "empty" appliance ... can't afford to put food in it, now I have paid for it ... LOL

I was able to get to Bible Study on Tuesday ... we are now starting the book of Revelation.  I always find those evenings fascinating as the rest are Filipino, ex-Catholics ... so their Bible teaching and heritage is so different to mine.  We have great evenings, and I always come out feeling blessed.

So - what have I missed?  I hope if there is any news you will let me know.

*hugs*

PS - just had to use the new icon I made ... I amused myself, even though I haven't a clue what the dots say ... so hope it's nothing rude!  I must get some more icons made.

  • Shhhh - Don't Tell Mum!

    Mum was an amazing cook ... wish I was half as good. However she had a rule about mince pies ... first one was Christmas Day, and all had to be gone…

  • Boy, It's Cold

    I walked into Exeter this morning, and it was gently snowing the whole time ... not enough to settle, but at least it made it feel right to be going…

  • He Would Have Been 99

    ... Yes, Dad would have been 99 today. He thoroughly enjoyed his 90th birthday, which was the last one he celebrated at home with Mum ... so special…
