Looking Forward Now, Always Looking Forward..

It is Monday again, seems almost too quick, I guess that’s because I am sixty and have experienced a lot of weeks.

Time seems to have speeded up, a week is not as long as it felt when I was at school, then it felt like a month.

A year was forever then and almost did not bear thinking of; contemplating my birthday in March, around May was a very long wait.

Having done the administration with Anja recently has enabled me to relax and enjoy life.

Right now I am doing just that, relaxing and enjoying the sight of the wood pigeons ‘’sneaking’’ into their nest just across from my bedroom window.

I enjoy the things I see/hear from the bedroom windows, the birds, the kids playing football, people singing, playing drums at the Fijnhout theatre.

 These are some of the things that gave me a feeling of being part of this neighbourhood, despite being in bed for such a long time from 2008 to 2010.

Looking back now its quite incredible that I had to stay in bed for so long, I almost can’t believe that it happened and I survived.

Amazing that I managed to cope so well, so glad it’s in the past, looking forward now, always looking forward.

You not only have survived it, but you have survived it very well. Here's hoping that your new garden apartment (assuming that you get one) will be interesting as well. Have a lovely day. Yesterday was a lovely 80F, but today and the rest of the week will be average and partly cloudy. Still, it's better that the terrible heat that is happening all over!

Hi Webster,
Lovely to see your comment, thanks for your kid words.
We have had bad weather since beginning of July.
Lots of rain, overcast and grey days, no summer from 21 June.
Quite a miserable summer.

Hi KP,
All the best to you too.

Thanks to you 2 lovely friends for coming by, so nice to see your comments.
Love,
Herrad
