8. uplifting things and tough things.

I wakened early and the sun was shining the birds were singing and for a wee while I forgot about the  crisis.

I made tea, opened the windows,  thought about the day , what would it bring.


Ullet Road was very quite , again, empty busses going up the road, ; fair play to the drivers, and the people who have to go out to work

A young friend M  text me to say she was going to Tesco and  did I need anything. The only thing I needed was onions. She showed up later with my onions, and a lovely bunch of yellow tulips, and a big bar of chocolate.We had a lovely distance chat at my window. I am so grateful for all the help and care that I am receiving.

I went for a lovely walk in the March sunshine, it did me good, physically and spiritually. I took a flask of coffee with me and had some coffee at my dad's tree, the branches are still very bare  but the ground all around it is surrounded by daffodils, a lovely moment in the warmth of the March sunshine.


I came home and had lunch  of my yummy home made soup, then Andrew called to talk me through how to bleed my radiators, but he decided that would not help with my  heating problem, it might be something else.

My neighbour has loaned me a heater and that helps till this problem is sorted.


I finished off making the ratatouille that  I started last night, had a face time chat with S my sister, then made a delicious Banana and blueberry loaf, the house still smells lovely.

It is my next door neighbours birthday today and sadly due to isolation, she could not do all the things she had planned. I gave her some cakes and party poppers and Taiwan tea which I brought back  lmost two years ago, and hope it tastes ok. She was pleased with that.

I saw her and Charlie out in the garden, later on  having a lovely takeaway meal, with two friends, and I saw some flowers being delivered for her, so hopefully it was a little better than she thought it would be at the beginning of the day.

My last telephone client, works in the NHS and I was rather disturbed about what she shared with me. I am full of admiration for her and all her co workers, they really do take their lives in their hands for others.

I with my choir and thousands of others were in their gardens tonight  at 8.00 PM clapping hands for all the NHS workers ....so so touching, but I am worried that they are not getting the help that they need.

I heard from Penny ,Johnny, Philip today, and of course a nice long chat with Andrew :)


Blessings on all of our Hearts


All shall be well
and all shall be well,
and all manner of things shall be well
