Like the sound of Donkey World. TOMarg.

Where's that Trixiebelle gone? Do you think she has been lured into Ahmeds shed with the promise of treasures of undescribable beauty? :o

Been to Drs as instructed, even higher BP seems to be the problem. So that's that. Thankyou all for your concern.
A friend has just invited me to go to Wisley at the end of the month so I shall look forward to that. Not been for a long time.
Lunch, then lurch plotwards for the afternoon. :D Hope you are all enjoying the lovely weather. 8)

Emaggie, glad you did as you were told ;D Hope BP is soon under control. Yes the weather is so great. Lunch now for the pest (King Charlies Spaniel) then out to do a little gardening. She complains if her lunch is late ;D

yep Caroline she is Cavalier.. Blenheim. Sorry about spelling of Charles(Charlie) but then again she was Charlie's dog ;D Sorry going off subject folk. Have always had Labs and German Shepherds but due to Charlie being disabled we thought a smaller dog would be better. He thoroughly spoilt her for three years when he was alive (she will be 8 in Sept)She is so territorial and has to be put in another room if strangers come in to the bungalow, and barks and growls at anyone within 10yards of the bungalow or the car. Although I am sure she hasn't got a bite in her. She was always taken everywhere with us so if left alone she barks all the time (not a problem with neighbours...Lorna JNr :)). One consolation if I want to go and visit friends she will quite happily lay in the car. I go to a friends every Wed eve and she lays out in the car for up to 4 hours. Never had a problem dog before but she is a darling. Will find pic.

Gad your appointement went ok Emagg ;D

Today I have been 'Lidl'd' .. and I'm £60 skinter than I was when I went in. Loads of fab perennials in there for 69p & 99p.

Didn't spend the WHOLE £60 on perennials though. I also bought essential items such as tins of sardines for 19p and large jars of brockwurst sausages .. whatever they might be ::)

And no, I haven't been lured into Ahmed's shed lately ;D It's too bloomin' hot in there! He has a big woodburning stove going full blast all day. I swear he could grow pineapples in it.

dear e-maggi i was afraid after i posted the last one it would sound as if i was saying ignor what the doctor said. what i was trying to say was perhaps a change of diet and relaxation techniques might help you feel more in control of the orrible BP ps if you lived with my OH you would blame im after all it couldn,t be MY fault could it ;D

Emagggie · « **Reply #178 on:** March 15, 2007, 21:52:15 »

Things never ever go smoothly for me and rarely get time away because of my ageing Mother. However, I thought a day away to York yesterday with OH and go to Sarahs funeral and then home again would go ok. WRONG!!!! Oh Yesterday was ok and enjoyed the journey down to York and a wander round the lovely city. Popped into one or two shops, but bought NIL. Today at breakfast got a phone call from Warden at Mums Sheltered Housing. Mother had fallen last night and had laid on the floor all night and was now on her way to Hospital, they were waiting on the ambulance. I did go to Sarahs funeral, which was so apt and a lovely service. I met one or two lovely people from A4A but only briefly because I had to get back home again. Mum hasnt broken anything but is shaken up a bit. Its sods law isn't it. You watch over them when your at home and do everything for them and when you want some time out, well you are not really allowed it. Doesn't seem fair does it, but then who says life is fair.
