just val

Recovering after a busy weekend. Well sort of recovering - just returned from Pilates - in my 6th month now, but it still hurts a bit. i wonder if theres a Pilates exercise for toothache! Off to Whitstable to see friends tomorrow but had to turn down a last minute appointment with my cardiologist. Guiess i need sea and sun and to see my old friends again cos i miss them like crazy. Will ring hospital when my hearts in it!

Wet Tuesday

Have spent a most enjoyable hour catching up on Morags Blog and gazing in awe at her photos....i gotta carry a camera!

Since my last posting we have successfully been and returned from a holiday in Italy stopping overnight in France

Held a party for my son Jonathan, and hosted his friend and wife and 2 year old daughter for a week. They were only supposed to stay a few days, so i had to do a bit of life re-planning. 2 year old Holly is my God-daughter. They live in Montrose, so i guess she found my Essex accent a bit weird. Drink, Biscuit, Fish, Banana are among several universally accepted phrases for a 2 year old.

I need to take stock and get on top of the back log of work i have. A Book sale, District Scout BBQ, Church Parade, various appointments........... perhaps i need some sort of sabbatical and its hardly suprising i dont keep the blog up to date. Must try harder next time.
