Stripes


Hi!  I didn't have time to blog yesterday.  I was catching up with my housework and changing beds etc.  I don't know where the time runs away to but the days definitely get shorter as time marches on!  I was supposed to be meeting friends for lunch today but am not feeling 100%.  If I move too quickly I'm dizzy, my shoulders are all tight and I'm thinking it's because I've been sleeping in the spare bed since Mr C's been ill and it's not nearly so comfy!  Not to worry I'm just doing things slowly today but am annoyed that I've missed lunch.

Hugs
Anne
