    julie glad he wasnt disappointed.

    well I am so pleased that i amanged to catch up before bedtime today!!!
    I had my outing with my CSW today but i was struggling as I had terrible double vision and was generally weak - maybe i shouldnt have gone but really wanted to get out.

    District nurse was here in the afternoon and i was very breathless but had a sleep after she went and I felt much better at tea time.

    must go and find my list and update it from this morning - not that I have done a lot!!! I have been listening!!!
    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder
