life as it is

1. Solicitors are hard work! No disrespect but the lovely receptionist sorted out the problem . 2. Being ignored by my sister when she saw my daughter and myself , she spoke to my daughter but not me . What have I done wrong this time ? Not bothered. 3. Finally finished a level on my word game which is quite difficult .

Walking around what used to be a garden centre it is now a very high class gift centre with a few plants and gardening equipment to say it’s a garden centre. Not knocking it but it was very quiet not as busy as it used to be.

1. Eating a blood orange and ginger yoghurt, really nice and refreshing. 2. Having the patio door opened after all the rain we had, letting the fresh in bliss. 3. Going round the garden centre making future plans. My eye caught a cafe u lait dahlia I might succumb.

1. The paperwhite narcissi has just bloomed scenting the air with their delicate perfume 2. Taking a walk in the rain and wind, thank goodness for waterproofs 3. Not buying clothes I don’t need but spent the money instead on a nice dinner

1. Got a clean bill of health at the dentist and hygienist. For someone who really hated dentists  I now really like my one, so glad I found him and his practice. 2. A weekend away is booked for February so looking forward to it a mini holiday. 3. Applying for a new job. Really scared.

1. Taking a walk on a lovely winters morning . It’s cold and the wind is very icy. 2. Popping in a charity shop and finding a book I never got round to buy when it was first out. Bargain! 3. Being asked to help eldest granddaughter with a cooking project.

1. Did not loose my temper with a work colleague as much as they did hurt me. 2. Brought Sicilian red oranges on the receipt it says pink oranges when I was younger they were called blood oranges. 3. Enjoyed hearing about her unexpected night at the theatre she really enjoyed her night out a rare one for her.

Siting down by the patio doors watching the rain lashing down listening to beautiful music and the tears fall the healing starts,

1. Went shopping in the big town next to where I live came home empty handed . Found what I was looking for in my own town! 2. Putting on new bed linen which was bought for me for xmas, a really luxurious set  really stunning. And nice to sleep in! 3. Really enjoying my knitting and the squares are beginning to grow, no hurry nice and relaxing .

1. A zillion raindrops fall in about 2 seconds flat. 2. Earphones on singing to my hearts content, no one is in to moan about my singing yay! 3. Should really be singing raindrops falling on my head! Have to find that song and start practicing it to be word perfect..

1.  Shopping with granddaughter and daughter. Singing the song jelly on the plate wibble wobble etc 2. Money taken out my account without my permission, dealt by a lovely young man who was so helpful. 3. Black cat sitting right on top of my feet can’t move but keeping my feet nice and warm.

1,opened patio doors it was a bit chilly but it felt so good. 2, drinking a glass of cold water and feeling better for it . Did try warm water and lemon but didn’t enjoy it. 3, watching an inspector calls on tv last night . I really enjoyed it. Best drama I watched for ages .

A brand new year started for me by opening the patio door to let the fresh air in long time since I done that , so I will try and do that in the morning from now onwards regardless if it’s cold raining snowing etc even if it’s for 5 mins it certainly blows the cobwebs away and I am up first! Life in 2017 was a mixture of bad and good, but I got through it. It started with my son having an accident and my elderly friend dying and it ended with my aunt dying on the Saturday before xmas. So I think I will go back to the 3 things that cheer me up,so onwards and upwards, I must admit I am a bit apprehensive about this new year, but I shall try and remain positive. Right back to the 3 things that cheer, No1, buying the Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, alaways promised myself to buy it never got round to it, but finally did. Love Scrooge the Christmas Carol with Alastair Sims just love it. 2, buying a pot of papewhite narcissi and instead of 3 bulbs in the pot there was 4 as one bulb
