Fiona's Quiet Life

Grand­sons are such won­der­ful things.….….…..this one is ser­en­ad­ing me accom­pan­ied by music on his mobile phone ‚a lot of air gui­tar work and a lot of leap­ing about.

I have had Neil Dia­mond music since i was 13 first vinyl then cas­sette tapes then Cd’s…all the same music just dif­fer­ent ways of record­ing it, but grand­son won­der­ful boy that he is has put 3 of his tunes ..not the latest Cd , i haven’t got used to the songs on it yet, but 3 tunes from the one i bought last year.….….…into my mobile phone and now i have them as ring tones …oh happy grandma !

I spent the last two days in the yurt again doing Reiki 2.….…..i have home­work, its like being back at school, but i am amazed at the effect my reiki has on the people i have given it too, and the giv­ing of it seems to have a bene­fi­cial effect on me too., i am cer­tainly full of energy , get­ting all sorts of things done at last and even tidy­ing the house, wow !

been play­ing with photoshop.hence the odd picture.

The “man in there’s deed but” said a small voice as i knocked on a door tonight, “got car­rit oot in a body bag three weeks ago ” said another child.…..I was .as usual.…..lost. we com­pared notes the dozen young tear­aways and me and decided i needed to be on the other side of a metal fence they then debated whether i was too fat to get through.….i still think i could have done it , but there was no need as the door i wanted was just this side of it. all this was because some­body was offer­ing a ‘man­frotto pro­fes­sional mono­pod’ on free­share and i was in dire need of a decent mono­pod due to the upcom­ing trip with the cam­era club to pho­to­graph the light fest­ival , i just cant hold the cam­era still long enough to get a really sharp pic in poor light.

any­way mis­sion suc­cess­ful , i have my mono­pod and am truly grateful.

step­daugh­ter and i are booked on a trip down the Nile in November.….i am all excited and want to pack already.

it is a habit with Glaswe­gi­ans to stick ’ but’ on the end of ran­dom sen­tences for no appar­ent reason.….….…and i heard one of them say ‘see ya later’ to the queen.….….….that seemed very unlikely to me

feel­ing much bet­ter today,got things done, face still swollen but head not sore.….….swollen face fills out the wrinkles.…..mm.

what i need to know is.….…is Carol Vor­der­man wear­ing that dress as a dare, it fails on so many levels.

feel­ing off col­our still today, i decided to stop fight­ing it and let it go its course , this meant sit­ting in front of telly all day and drink­ing french onion soup. Basil and i had an addic­tion to count­down for some months till we got bored with it. i watched it today, did well at the sums for the first time, but carol’s dress ?? what was she thinking.

there comes a time in the life of woman when she must give up on a tooth , that day came for me today and out it came.……oh the relief of it. no won­der i had been feel­ing so ill for so long , a low grade infec­tion from an abs­cess has been hanging about for months,.……i didn’t keep it for the tooth fairy .

. no salsa tonight though as i still feel hor­rid, but him upstairs has gone with Kate…they leave for Cuba on Thursday so need lots of practise.
