Thanks for your comments. Yes, you’ve right about things changing with age. I never thought I’d find myself incapacitated. Weird isn’t it? I’m sure we all have had the sense that ‘old age won’t happen to me!’ It seems life had other plans.😂
Hope your recovery after your knee surgery is progressing well.

Nice entry.

Like you, I don't do clothes shopping anymore, and with the arthritis, I stopped walking outside, but I walk inside the house and around the yard. Things change greatly as we grow older and older.

It's like the apple in the garden, too tempting to avoid and look what happened after that.

Hats off to you! I don't think I could do what you did. On the other hand, having a lot of people fixing things while you are taking care of the kids and trying to keep them safe would have its own downers, too.
Anyhow, so glad you could and did do all that! That's some feat to be proud of.

I wish you a speedy recovery from your knee replacements. I understand it’s a painful operation but worthwhile. I’ll be thinking of you on Monday. 😉🤞🍀☘️ Good luck, Lyn

I agree the cheetos aka the man who wants to be Hitler and Putin rolled into one, his ignorance will definitely have global impacts.

I've been getting as much as I can in order before my surgery on Monday, February 3rd. I'm having my right knee replaced followed my left shortly after. Writing didn't fit in for me either. Looking forward to seeing more of you in the months ahead.

weather where I live is also unsettling. Took the dogs out for a walk yesterday had some sunshine but today is fog and rain on top of a couple feet of snow turning everything to slush.

Every year I look forward to something called January Thaw. This year we just had a new blizzard every couple days. If the thaw does not show up properly in February, the sap won't run properly from the trees less maple syrup probably. Anyway, forecast says sunshine tomorrow. If we have a freeze in the night all slush will turn to ice.

Watching grandchildren choose as they age is so interesting because society has changed so much since I was a child.

The feeling was amazing indeed. The first night was the scariest but after that I found so much joy in each task I tried. I've surprised myself on more than one occasion, Yes I can do anything I set my mind to doing.

I can’t say I’d be tempted to go camping on my own, so I think you’re very brave. It would have given you so much confidence knowing you succeeded. Afterwords you must have felt as if there was nothing you couldn’t do on your own.

New year

Okay I’d better start practicing for the 30 day blogging challenge. It’s due to start tomorrow. New Year’s Day 2020! It’s hard to believe I’m still kicking on after 2019, annus horribilus as the Queen herself is heard to say.
If it’s good enough for Queenie it’s good enough for me.
Health wise not a good year. A bout with breast cancer and an autoimmune disease called PMR, not something I’d wish on anyone. But tomorrow is a New Year, I’ve decided I’m going to write every single day, even if it’s only in this blog. I’ve signed up for I write in 2020 as well so putting the pressure on.
The fires here in Australia are ridiculous, never known a fire season like this. Lives and homes lost, tragedy on the news nightly. We’re even having fireworks in Sydney and Perth as the fires rage. Can this be right? Surely not, it makes no sense.
Our Prime Minister is a climate change sceptic, in denial. He has at least paid homage to the volunteer firefighters and making a payment to cover lost wages as they leave their businesses and jobs to save other people’s properties.
So to everyone here on Writing.Com I wish you all a very happy, healthy New Year.
Thank you for just being you.

Christmas is coming

Well it’s been a while since I updated my blog and for the last month I’ve been dealing with my various ailments. The newest of which is called Polymyalgia Rheumatica or PMR.
I was just about at the stage where I thought I had a life threatening condition hardly able to keep awake or so much body pain I could barely crawl.
The specialist confirmed the diagnosis and started me on steroids. It’s been an amazing turn around, I’m feeling almost as good as new!
All I need to do is taper very very slowly of the meds until my adrenal glands can start to take over once more.
The radiation for the breast cancer is proceeding well only ten more to go.
I’ve been able to do some reviews again now my brain is functioning and write a few stories and contests.
The weather here in Western Australia is horrible today forty degrees centigrade. Too hot!
Christmas bearing down on us fast but I’m on top of present buying.
Will be spending Christmas Day with our daughters. Morning at the rehab centre and the afternoon at our eldest daughter’s open house.
Should be an easy Christmas as regards cooking etc this year. Which is good as I’m still not up to entertaining.
Looking forward to a better year in 2020.
