I *should* be doing the ironing......but I'm going to write for a bit first. I see it's been longer than I thought since I last wrote on here....ah well, that's life. 

I'd like to say a big THANK YOU to all those who look at my pages.  It feels so good to see that people are looking at it.  It is an 'ego massage' wh

My usual pc is bust.  It refuses to connect to the internet at the moment and has been playing silly buggers all week.  So I know it is close to death and it can't be fixed, but it is my personal toy.  It sits where I have all my stuff - I read posts and do my nails and stuff lke that. It's not like I don't have another one to use......I just like being in that room with mine.  And though the pc is acting up, the monitor is also a TV so I can use that when I'm in there and am so grateful for it.

Andy finally had time to put up the mirrors and pictures for me.  He did way more than I expected and I'm so grateful.  I love the end result. That space is now really me.

Yup, I've said grateful several times already and that is how I feel.  There are problems and I have a lot to do but......

My weight is about stable for now.  I've kept that stone off (14 lbs.)  I've lost a couple more but they are off and on.  Or my scale needs new batteries !!   It doesn't matter which really.  I have been sleeping  an awful lot; napping for a few hours every day as well as all night and wanting comfort food as well.  But I'm not getting bent out of shape over it but rather just accepting it.  Some weeks I have several days where I'm busy or out and about all day, so the other days I guess I make up for it.  And I'm not really eating enough most of the time.  I just don't feel hungry.  I am trying to drink more.....note the trying.

I'm enjoying moderating again and it seems to be going more smoothly this time.  Hurray.

And isn't Skype a great thing?  I can talk to people and it doesn't cost a bean.  I do enjoy using it.

Now off to make a cuppa, feed myself and get that laundry out.  Then we'll see.....




 
I had awful dreams last night but don't understand them yet.  Can't really remember them either.  Oh well.   This has been happening quite a bit lately but it doesn't worry me anymore since I know that something postitve generally comes from them.  It's ususally an awareness of something or an answer to a question I've haven't really asked consciously.

I've lost another pound!  Go me.

Today I did some errands and fully enjoyed myself.  I'm glad I can take music with me when I go on the bus.  Today I really listened to the words more than ususal and it was good.  One stop was at the opticians to get my specs adjusted - tired of pushing them up my nose and looking over the top of them.  They now fit and are more comfortable.

Now I'm off to my com
 
I've started doing a bit of moderating again, so will be on the computer more and might do more writing when I am up here.  I'm enjoyijng my moderating immensely so far and was pleased to be asked if I'd be interested in doing it again.
Chel is delighted with her car and as we had to go to Peterborough on Sunday she agreed that we could take it so she could get some practice in.  Actually, she's pleasant to ride with.  Andy has taken the car to work a couple of times but had gone back to using his own again.

This is his last night on this contract and that's not a bad thing - other than lack of £££££

I'm getting on okay with my new specs -  my vision is not so blurryed at night if at all.  And that is brilliant. 

Stevie has just had a happy few minutes taking my bedding off the bed!  For some reason he loves to do that.....the pillows end up everywhere as do the covers.  Then he jumps down, wags his tail and goes to his bed.

That little guy makes us laugh so much.  His latest trick is taking a whole apple and eating it.  He has a small mouth and has to work at it.  And the big carrrots I bought him this week.....well he really had to work on them as well.  He takes them out of my hand and runs to the door so he can go outside and get stuck into eating it.  He knows he isn't allowed them in the house as he won't keep them in the kitchen.  Carrots and beige carpets don't go well together in my opinion.

I've kept the weight off and have lost another one pound so I'm pleased with that.  I'm not making a fuss about it all.  Just working at thinking about what I eat and reminding myself to drink more.  I did see the doctor about the depression and said I didn't think the meds were doing much good so he doubled the dose.  I'm waiting to see whether they will make a difference.

The Royal Wedding was fantastic to watch.  Yep, I've watched them all since Princess Anne and Mark Phillips.  I thought Kate looked wonderful in that perfect dress.  Best wishes to both of them and I do hope the day went as they wished it
