    hi Toni Joan jojo toady etc

    How are you all?

    Mum is getting better

    Seems to be heart - related but not as severe as heart attack

    I visited her today,

    She reminded of my rheumatology blood test

    I almost cried

    I’m so tired

    Dad wouldn’t let me rest

    She got angry with dad that’s a good sign

    She has ecg tomorrow

    And has made friends with all the ladies on the ward

    She had a lot of fluid retention, which has gone down significantly now

    She looks healthier

    Thank you everyone xx

    I’m going to shower and rest while I can

    Have a good evening and night all tc xx

    Thank you for updating us bosh good to hear how things are going 😘 Hope the ecg is clear as to what's what and your mum is not worrying too much. How nice that she's made friends with everyone that sounds very typical 😊 and that she had the energy to argue with BB 🤭. Sorry you haven't had enough rest though as it is hard enough hospital visiting 😔 hope you are getting the chance now. Take care will look in & out when passing, the kettle is always on (and the rich tea biccies have been replenished courtesy of yours truly tottering into town 😉). xx

    Joan 👋 oh yes if I was trying to be quiet, that's definitely when I would drop a trowel from a great height with a clang etc 🤭. I pulled up a few weeds on my way back from town but I just don't enjoy being out the front I like being in the back garden where at least it's private(ish). I mainly bought chocolate and bird food 😂. It's still very cold I think, walking was not that nice at all in the wind but the sun was out on the way back. Have a good evening love to the dogs too 😘 xx

    Hope the things help from the GP Stuart, what did they say about the lingering cold, if at all. Hope your physio referral comes through ok. How is the sleep 🤞 xx

    Hi to Jojo 😊👋 hope your day is going ok xx

    Love to all ☕️ xx

    hi Toni toady etc

    I’ve extracted the poem from the bank as I’m trying to do normal things as it were

    I did see the QJL in the evil Santa hat in real life incidentally

    I’m visiting mum tomorrow but not with dad as he’s stressing me out,

    I’ll get the bus and a taxi

    Good night everyone tc xx

    Vc poem called “Ode to The QJ Lady” (also known as The NHS Queue Jumper Lady - she bullied her way into getting a covid jab early)
    I encountered the QJ lady on the street
    A most unfortunate type of character for me to meet
    She wore a strange red and white hat like an evil Mrs Santa Claus
    The expression on her face gave me pause
    For thought, she said the doctor told her to eat a bakery full of rock cakes
    Because it makes her happy, but that’s one of her mistakes
    If a van load of sugar makes us happy
    We have less wisdom than poor old BR did when he wore his first nappy
    I said to her, why not try a tuna sandwich, or even a low fat cheese slice?
    But she said “no, only a full fat cheese - rich pizza please”
    I replied “to be honest, I hardly ever indulge in such a meal
    Go to Maidenhead and ask Bill he will be glad to share his pizza with a fellow junk food fan, he’ll welcome with such zeal
