Barney and Sam

Here Barney is lapping up the Sunshine ~ That tub he is sitting in has a potato planted in it ~ he has never sat in a tub before ~ well not one with soil in it ~ he do'es look comfortable though I must say :o)

when I was at the Hospital a couple of weeks ago because I had fractured my wrist ~ Tom my Grandson came in with Sam my Great Grandson who had been in a Rugby tackle at school and injured his foot ~

Sam has been in the wars as two weeks ago he was riding his friends Cycle and the front wheel came off ~ it all happened so quickly and he hit the pavement and knocked himself out his friend had the presence of mind to ring an ambulance and contact the police and he even rang Cressie Sam's Mum to let her know what had happened ~ when you think he is only 14 years old I think he did very well ~ Sam fractured his left hand (and he is left handed) and his face was cut very badly ~ but I am glad to say he is healing very quickly ~ and lapping up being waited on hand and foot :o)

I hope that is the end of the accidents ~ Times I wish we could wrap them in cotton wool ~ but I know that is not possible ~

Did anyone miss me ?????

I had a collision with a door and ended up fracturing my right wrist which has made it very difficult to type or to be honest to do very much of anything as it is splintered and very difficult to move ~

But I am still reading and trying to comment so please forgive me if I havn't been able to comment on your Blog ~

Hopefully it won't be too long until I get this split off and can lead a normal Life ~

The vidio above is Lyn and William enjoying the Trampoline all the Children seem to be having a great time and I love to watch them but rest assured I shall not be going on it for a long time to come

Ally :o)

Nin and Barneys visit to the "FAT" Nurse ~ and a few days away for me

Lyn got her Trampoline as you can see William is having a great time ~ the netting obscures the picture a bit but it is a safety measure to protect him from falling off the edge ~

Nin and Barney visited the "FAT" Nurse they had both lost 2 and a half inches from their body size Barney had lost weight the Nurse was really pleased with him ~ but Nin had not lost any weight at all the Nurse said it was possible he was building up muscle he is a really sturdy little boy ~

I shall be away for a while I am going to visit my Sister Joy but will be back during next week ~

Sunny Day and Allergies

                                                             

Here’s William sitting in the Hallway using Lyn’s Makeup ~ He is such a lovely little boy and can entertain himself for hours ~

There is just one problem with all this Sunshine and flowers blooming they bring out lots of pollen and set off any allergies

especially my Asthma ~ but luckily this time I did manage to go see the Nurse who is qualified to give out prescriptions ~ so for the last week I have nearly finished a course of Antibiotics and Steroids ~ no need to call for assistance from the paramedics ~

 

Lyn has bought herself a Trampoline which should have been delivered last Friday but it didn’t arrive ~ they now tell us it will be here to~morrow Monday  (We shall have to wait and see)

 

With this nice weather time now to think about filling the swimming pool ~ or will that be tempting the fates ~ last year when we did just that the weather changed and we hardly had any Summer weather ~

 

I let Barney and Nin into the Garden Barney shot out of the door and the next thing I saw was Barney throwing a little field mouse into the air he then picked it up by the tail and was shaken it (poor little thing) ~ I managed to get him to leave it and with trepidation picked it up by the tail went out into the front garden and put it into the hedge it scampered away so I am hoping it will be OK ~  (you might think I am a fool worrying about one small mouse) but I do hate to see anything hurt ~

 

 

me and Joy

 

I love this picture of me and my Big Sister Joy ~ she only looks bigger because her chair is taller than mine :o)

we have been more than sisters we have been great friends ~ and I love her dearly ~ when I was in hospital she was there for me trying to take away any pain that I had ~ she would willing have taken it away and took away the cancer that was trying to take me away from her ~ I know for certain that it was because of her I am still here to enjoy her company ~ her encouragement and her prayers always made me feel strong ~

I would not dare to have left her she would never have forgiven me ~

We have five brothers and an older sister and we were always a very close family and we were always there for each other ~ but Joy and I were the youngest two girls in the family we went to School together and when we left School we worked for the same company for a while ~

I just want her to know how much she means to me and how glad I am she is part of my life ~

 

I was prompted to write this post today as I had a Hospital appointment today and everything was fine and I do not have to go back for another year ~ it is amazing the things that go through your mind before an appointment and the relief of knowing all is well ~

Where is Barney ??????

Barney went missing today ~ we searched the garden the workshop and all the little nooks and crannies where we though he would be ~

 

We eventually found him in the last place we expected he would be

 

Very comfortable as you can see :o)

 

 

He had found his way upstairs and made himself very comfortable in one of the beds up their ~

 

we were just pleased he was safe  as he does mean such a lot to us !!!!!!!!
