Ok, as far as I know, it's Saturday..... also the start of our 2 day Conference !! A little later the Elders are coming by to watch some of it with us - I think it starts about 5pm local time, I'll have to check.....
Anyhow, I'm here & the music of the moment is The Clash 'Live At Shea Stadium'....... I'm not sure why - I'm not a big Clash fan - but it's something to listen to while I type !! I think I might go back to the Allman's a little later.....
As for the family - B & ME are out in town. ME is getting a hair cut & B has gone a long for the ride !! J is upstairs & means I'm here sat on my own some !! No biggy, I'm feeling a little under the weather today, so a trip 'out' would of been a bit stupid !! We did go into town yesterday & it really took it out of me - it was my first real trip out for a while !!
On Thursday, the Elders came for a meal... it was Elder K's birthday, so B did him a cake - with sparklers & we sang 'Happy Birthday' to him.... I think he enjoyed the moment, almost brought a misty eye to the room !!
I forgot it was Conference weekend, I was worried about not being able to go to Church again this Sunday, but......... I hope to feel better in another week. With a lovely family & fantastic Wife to look after me, I have to get better !!
I am concerned about the way things are going.... it's taking me longer & longer to get over things !! B has explained it to me, that it's taking longer - mainly - as I'm going into the surgeries & what have you, from a lower base line....... so, it's taking me a while to get back to good health. We always knew this would happen, that I would get lower & lower - but now it's happening, well... it's just kind of hard !! As I've said before, it's all become very real !!
Not sure if I mentioned it before, but I had a 2 cd set by Dio come in the post.... it's really good !! It's from the 2 shows they did at Donington in 1983 & 1987. I was at the 1983 show & I've had tapes of both shows for many years - these are better tho'. Check them out...... there are sites you can listen to the sets, or you can go buy them !!
I'm looking into buying 3 books by Shelby Foote, about the American Civil War....... I had hoped they would be cheap-ish, but - looking on Amazon & Play.com - I've a feeling they are going to be too costly for my pockets !! I'll check out the book shop in town & see just how much they are going to be. Time will tell !! I do like old history books tho'........
Ok, the Allman's are playing again.... this time a concert from Portsmouth, VA (USA) on October 7th 2009. I keep playing my old tapes between cds - I'm still working thru' 'H' - but, with new cds reaching me almost daily - well it's kind of hard to keep up with things !! Such is life........... thanks Mr Kelly !!
Must away... hello in France !!
Bye Bye
