Where Does The Time Go ?

Hello & Greetings Worlds !!

So, here I am thinking  about logging in & doing a bit more to my blog..... then one thing pushed out another - so 2 weeks went by !!  Wow.... where does the time go when you're having fun ? 

Ah yes "fun" - I remember "fun" !!

I have NO excuse at all - other than (again !) I've been poorly..... IF anybody is reading this, well - I get poorly a lot, maybe too often - but I keep flapping my arms & try to pull out of it !!  Remember, if you'll falling a long way, you may as well try & fly !!  So flap those arms people - it works for me !!

OK, it's a Monday & it's cold outside..... we (B & I) went into town earlier & it was freezing !!  Never mind - I have a new way to keep warm !!  The highlight of the last week has been the 'gift' of a new wheel chair - yippeeeeeeeeeee !!  My old chair had small wheels & I had to be pushed around - this new one has BIG wheels on the back, so I can move all on my own !!!  It's great fun - I'm mobile at last..... Like today, we went into ASDA (someone has to !) & I was able to double back & pick up something that B had forgotten !  It IS brilliant - I can not tell you what a big deal this is for me !!

Yesterday we said "Goodbye" to my old chair.... we have donated it to the Church.  They can either use it at our Church - to help people in & out of the building - or give it to someone who needs it.  I know we could of sold it, but........ someone, some place, will get the benefit of it & that's all that matters really.  It was kind of sad to let it go, it has been a part of me - my life - for the last 3 years.... oh well !!

OK - 'The Family'..... B is out, J is upstairs & ME is - I think - on her way home from Uni placement.  today was her first day in a hospital complex, so it's been kind of hard for her.  BUT, it's all part of her course, so...

As for 'The Music In My Life'.... where to start, I have had soooooooo many things come thru' in the last 2 weeks !!  Yes... where to start ?

At the moment I'm listening to the soundtrack of the last 'Dr Who' season -  it's well good... nice & loud, good job our neighbours are deaf !!  Before that, I was playing 'Mulennium' by Gov't Mule - a great version of Skynyrd's 'Simple Man' !!  I had to get it from the Allman's web site, but it was worth it - only took 5 days to reach me as well - better than Play.com !!  Today - earlier - I picked up the new Bruce Springsteen 'The Promise'..... I've only played a couple of tracks on that, but it sounded pretty good.  What else ?  I can't remember !!

I know I've got some Allman Brother's concerts on the way from the US of A - again from their own web site - & I hope they will be here this week sometime, maybe tomorrow......  Oh yes, I also had a great version of 'The Wall'.  I had the DVD a week or two back, but the transfer to CD worked really well....  I can not remember what else !!  Some Band Of Joy stuff came & probably many others, which I'll think about when I switch off the computer !!  Never mind....

B picked me up some 'Vinyl CDs'.... they look & feel like small LPs.  I'll use them for special stuff, they look great, but at £2.50 a pop they are too expensive to just use for everyday things....... Never mind......

Anyhoo - 'ti 4.15pm & I must away...

Bye Bye
