It is a favourite in the BOB household Taxi..It smells wonderful to....sluurp

Nothing much planned today as had a bad nights sleep. Mr.B was snoring heavily last night so i ended up watching tv until the wee hours and am overtired.

May go for a walk later on to clear a few cobwebs.

Have a good Sunday.

Well it all seems to be happening at the moment.What is it about September?

Grandma had a fall the other day, and is so bruised she looks like she has been mugged:o At 96 she is entitled to look rough, but she won't go to docs/or have the doctor out, in case they send to her to hospital-so is sitting at home not dressed and is rubbing witch hazel onto bruises. No one can do anything with her and she has told everyone off. So her spirit is still good, but i am upset a bit about it. She has been looked at by my cousin who is a nurse and nothing seems to be broken, but i thought she may have persuaded her.

Two good friends seem to be suffering from nervous breakdowns at the moment, both have high blood pressure so i am really worried about them. I don't know best how to help them either, except to listen and offer advice if i am asked.

Work is good:D

Mr.B very tired due to extra long days with trains being delayed.

All in all a funny start to the week.

It can only get better as they say.

HI Bob, sorry about your grandmother having a fall, she sounds like a really independent lady.

Life is so complex sometimes I hope your friends can get some help.

Weather is grotty here and i have put in a loooong day at work so am happy to be home.

That does sound a *very* bad start to the first full week in September. Especially sorry to hear you gran is so poorly .... sounds feisty, mind, but poorly. Thank heavens your cousin's a nurse...

I've been feeling very weird myself, actually - managed to have a proper long talk about it with work partner, and gave myself a stiff talking to afterwards. It feels like its helped, we'll see.

Hope everything starts to run a bit smoother for you, Bob.
