A Good Day.

Feeling happier today, not been made so aware of my mortality, as I have been alot lately, morbid thoughts that I don’t like.

Ones, that I have been having too often, since my right arm has become so much weaker, which has worried me so very much wondering how things will be.

 Richie will manage, that helps some but does not take away my worries, I cope by trying to stop my thoughts, shame they keep popping back up.

Luckily I had a break today, nice to not be bothered even if only for one day, this afternoon cheered me up, Richie trimmed my toe, fingernails as well as cutting my hair.

 Now I feel restored, I always do after a haircut and getting my nails done too was brilliant, then I got called by Maurits, to tell me he had made an appointment on 28 October

It’s with a company who make various types of support, I found the company, Aquarius, yesterday when I surfed the web, and I hope it’s a good appointment.

Then Marianne came round with some clothes she had altered for me, she also took some more with her, brilliant thanks to her and Anja I now have more clothes to choose from.

My favourite little black jacket Richie slipped on right away for me, the first time I have been able to wear it in years nice for Marianne to see how simple it was for Richie to put on me.

I looked, felt so much better, having my clothes adapted has given me a huge much needed boost, I can once again look how I want, like myself.

Fresh Lemonade and A Late Glimpse of Sunshine

African Art.

Slept very well last night, and woke up nice and relaxed with only a couple of small leg spasms and my arms were folded and they were difficult to get them out from under the duvet and stretch them

Had to do my arm exercises right away so that I could stretch and move my arms and my hands too needed excising before I could use them.

The sun is coming out now at 19 pm, all day it has been dark and overcast, we had the lights on since Richie opened the curtains this morning.

Suddenly now the sun is shining through the clouds, which have got thinner, lovely a last hurrah of sunshine before dusk.

Makes me optimistic that tomorrow will be a brighter and prettier day, perhaps the sun will shine all day.

Richie finally got my WIFI working on my laptop, up to now we could not work out how to do it and now it is working well.

No more cables trailing through the house and when I can sit in my wheelchair I will be able to use my laptop without Richie having to fetch the network cable.

Excellent and good timing too, well that is another thing off our list of things to do, quite a few other things to do.

I keep meaning to tidy up my sent items and my address book, things that always get left too long, well not for much longer, by the end of the evening it will be done.

The sunshine has given me such a boost, so did the great shower and foot soak with Jasmine oil and the pedicure.

Bliss and afterwards I enjoyed a glass of delicious fresh lemonade which Richie had made, he is going to make tamarind ice cream.

First we are going to enjoy dinner of stuffed cabbage leaves with lentil, tomatoes, spinach and left over cauliflower cheese and tasty organic potatoes.

Well I am going to enjoy our evening.
