For that I am extremely grateful as some fairly big decisions have been made... not as regards my ongoing treatment, so far Ive had nothing on that front, just things that have been bothering me, and Its about time I took some action.
“If you obsess over whether you are making the right decision, you are basically assuming that the universe will reward you for one thing and punish you for another.
The universe has no fixed agenda. Once you make any decision, it works around that decision. There is no right or wrong, only a series of possibilities that shift with each thought, feeling, and action that you experience.
If this sounds too mystical, refer again to the body. Every significant vital sign- body temperature, heart rate, oxygen consumption, hormone level, brain activity, and so on- alters the moment you decide to do anything… decisions are signals telling your body, mind, and environment to move in a certain direction.”
― Deepak Chopra, The Book of Secrets: Unlocking the Hidden Dimensions of Your Life
Just thought I'd share that quote, i'm not reading his book but I do intend to at some point.
Now onto the 'family life' section of the blog. We'll start with son no.3 who out of the kindness of his heart thought that he would do me a favour and take the 'girls' down to the beach to check out the moorings on a boat ( it's always about a boat).
In his 'gung ho' attitude he loads his work 'wagon' with gear, grabs leads, poo bags, towels, shoves the girls in the back and off he goes...
Firstly he drives to a viewing point to see the boat on the moorings, which involves him driving up a grassy bank, job done he turns the car around, and ( he tells me he was only doing 10 -15 miles an hour) drives off.
Upon hearing a sound he looks in the rear view mirror and realises that the sound he heard was the loose catch on the boot flying open.
Sitting in the road behind him he catches sight of a small black and white puppy trembling in the middle of the road......
He gets out very quickly and legs it back up the road to pick her up... thankfully both she and Jess were ok, also very luckily for them there were no other cars about.
He then took them on the beach for a run about where Beanie had a swim and seemed none the worse for her ordeal.
Never trust him with your children....;-)
Still on the subject of dogs, I was on the beach with a friend when we bumped into another friend and her daughter. With six dogs around us it was quite chaotic, and in the midst of a hurried attempt at a conversation a large black labrador raced up to join in the fun.
After a brief sniff around and greeting of everybody he then quite calmly proceeded to relieve himself on my friends jeans ... whilst she was wearing them! For a few moments we were all shocked into silence ... the owner was extremely apologetic and said he'd only ever urinated in a pair of fishermans boots before..

Thank you for the comments, kind words and meaningful hugs, also the beautiful bouquet of flowers from AB and some gorgeous flowers from all you lovely folks at St Martin Methodist Church.
If you do see me out and about, please act normally, none of those pitying looks and tears, I can't deal with that on a regular basis !!
