Technical Troubles!!

Even though there have been no postings since Monday, I have spent the usual "blogging" time and more each of the days trying to sort out the "glitch" on my actual blog.

I don't know what had happened, but after many hours, much frustration, especially after I appeared to have deleted it all, my blog is up and running again, in a form that you can read, and in my favourite colour - red. I will keep on working on it to iron out the "blips".

Although I may have most gadgets out, and enjoy using them, I am not very good when things don't go according to plan or they don't work as they should. You see I am in no way technical. It's a bit like my owning and driving my car – I love driving it, and I like talking about cars, but as soon as it doesn't go or something happens to it that shouldn't, then I am totally at a loss.

At least my social skills don't let me down, even though at times I appear to be digging myself into a hole, and people say to me to stop digging. I suppose working for National Westminster bank for 20 years, and then as a priest for a further 23 years has helped. But as I mentioned on Sunday, my mother has been the greatest influence and help in how I am socially. My mother followed very closely by my father.

So what have I been doing over the past three days.

On Monday I went to the antique centre at Hemswell looking for a birthday present for me, well that was my excuse. I ended up identifying one or two for Sue whose 60th birthday is next month (26th) to be precise, but bought nothing for myself.

So as I came back empty-handed, I'm going again next Monday. As many of you will know I love going to antique centres.

Tuesday saw me attempting to sort the blog out, but I was very tired after Monday and much of the day was spent asleep.

Yesterday I was determined that I was going to do more. So I spent quite a bit of time trying to sort my blog – indeed I feel I made some progress with it.

Then the district nurse decided she was going to come see me in the morning and was with me for one and a half hours filling in a lengthy forms.

At teatime I ventured out in the car on my own – this was a first – to pick Sue up from work. I enjoyed it very much, but realised it took a lot out of me.

Today I woke up with a headache, and other than doing this post, I have so far done little. The headache is still with me, although not quite as bad as it was an hour or so ago. Hoping to go out with Charlotte this afternoon to ASDA and the garage. Exciting, eh!

So there we are that's you brought up to date with all that is happening to me.

I think I will call today as far as blogging is concerned. Tomorrow I will go back to my post operation period and try and unpack a few more pearls of wisdom from those experiences.

Thanks for being with me and following me in this way - it is so much appreciated.

Blessings to you all, in whatever way you perceive and receive those blesssings to be.

Chat tomorrow!
