Maybe Not Patient Just Realistic.

It’s getting colder now, very noticeable that autumn is well underway, the last days of warm weather has gone until next year.

Funny how I hate summer ending, the long dark nights starting, and especially the clock going back, at the end of October, which always makes me feel robbed of the beautiful autumn sunsets.

This year I am enjoying the dark nights, I will even try to put up with the clock without much fuss, who knows this year it may actually work.

Writing that makes me laugh, I can’t see me suddenly not getting annoyed at losing an hour, everyday until March next year.

Can’t see myself not having a rant at some point about burocrats making decisions which have such big affects on our lives.

Maybe who knows and I have really become a patient relaxed and laid back woman, I wish that were true, I almost believe its true, but I know that is make belief.

Having Multiple Sclerosis has forced me to be something I thought, I would never be, which is patient.

Amazing for me to experience being patient, I think that is a big achievement for someone as impatient as I am.

I realised that it was pointless being impatient as I am not able to move, I can’t be like I used to be, better for me to take it as easy as I can, to adapt to my situation now, maybe not patient just realistic.

Wet And Dark Tuesday Today.


 

Marcel Duchamp.
 

Pouring with rain for just about all the day today, very dark and dull day, shame as the weather has been very sunny, typical lovely early autumn weather.

Love sunny cool October days, shame that at the end of the month the clock will be put back to winter time.

Always feel that I have been robbed of some of the beauty of this time of year by the clocks being altered.

Not too worried about the weather getting colder as I have got some good warm clothing and once the rain cape is ready, I am all set to cope well with the winter weather.

Now it has got colder my body seems to have adjusted and I am finding that my arms and hands are working quite well, which is good to see and feel.

Tomorrow we will be getting visitors from Germany, our friend Antje will come by for the afternoon with her daughter Ira.

Be very good to see Antje again, looking forward to her visit tremendously, she has been visiting us every year around this time.

Seeing Antje tomorrow will be very special, met her in 1993 when I was trying to get a place at Middlesex University to do Bachelor of Arts in Criminology.

Sadly she did not get a place at an English university to study medicine, as we had all hoped; instead she got a place at the University of Berlin.

The main thing is, we have remained in touch which is the best state of affairs with good friends like Antje.

Really looking forward to tomorrow, going to enjoy every moment.
