Every day in every way .....

I am feeling much better these days more optimistic.

I believe the long break from work helped me a lot. I also think seven months passing helps too. I have seen much more of the children recently and this has been good for me. I wonder sometimes if they have rallied around me more because of all the heartache or if it is is just how it is. Either way I am grateful.
I noticed Penny Johnny and David have all rallied round Maureen and Mike. It must be very reassuring for them to have that support.

I have not felt able to go to visit Cambridge and London lately. I have just begun to feel lighter and more optimistic and truth be told I could not face another serious illness I was a bit too fragile myself.

Now I feel able to go I am stronger.

I am looking forward to many things this year and I am enjoying "the moment".

Jackie and Geoff's wedding, and seeing all the family, it will be a happy weekend.

My week alone in Castlenel, that started out to be a "needs must" but now I am seeing it a golden opportunity.

Visiting my step-children , the  moros y cristains festival in September ,would be perfect if Philip could be there too, Phil's 70th birthday celebrations, our Silver Wedding celebrations.

We enjoyed the MMCC yesterday.A great movie, Moonrise Kingdom,and a lovely tapas at La Bodega and we were all in good form.

We went for a walk this morning in the park,saw the swans cygnets and the moorhens with the babies, it was beautiful and uplifting. We had breakfast at the boathouse cafe, really nice.
I did not go to the five trees, and I felt ok about that,I am not driven so much now.

I have a very quiet week workwise this week, John will be in London and Cambridge and I will enjoy "being"  I am seeing some friends for coffee and lunch and Andrew is coming on Thursday to help with spreadsheets and maybe flickr.Then we are going to see Lucy and maybe her dad.

All is good.
