the gym phoned tonight to find out how I was, told them about my back and shoulder and hoping to be back next week, they said I could have got fees suspended on medical suspension but I cannot be bothered going to ask doctor for a "note" as I know I have pulled/torn a muscle but never got it diagnosed :eek: by an "official"

Written Tuesday: While lying awake last night (it was too hot to sleep), I planned my whole stall for doing a craft fair, LOL! It looked quite nice and I had loads of good ideas! Now have a mental list of all the things I will need to do a craft fair. I’ve been thinking of it for a while, I think I will plan to do one towards the end of the summer.
Have had a really nice morning. I got up early and tidied up a lot in the LR, and then a lovely lady from my congregation came round. I don’t know her that well, but she asked a few weeks ago if she could come round, and we had a lovely time. She was worried about me as she’d noticed I’ve missed quite a lot of meetings lately, and she was very encouraging. She asked if I’d like help to declutter the flat, and she’s going to get a few girls together and we are all going to declutter on one day and get it really really nice in here! How great! I’ve been trying to do it on my own, without much success, so I think it’s time to let other people help me.
Today: Really must wash up today, we are running out of stuff as I've been doing other things. I've got to go out this afternoon so will be doing some work this morning and washing up and other bits and bobs. Have stripped bed already so can get the new covers on that a bit later. I also need to carry on with sorting out our paperwork/shredding."Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."
