I've just seen the news - Clarence Clemons has died, I think from what I read, it happened yesterday..... a very talented & special person has left us. I think the news was harder, because I had not heard anything about it, until I switched the computer on a while back !! He was 69 - I didn't realise just how old he was.... but.... well, I've been listening to his music (mostly with Springsteen) for what seems like my whole life & now he has gone !! RIP Big Man....
Ok - it's a Sunday & we've just got back from Church...... a nice service, ruined by a few 'people' who seem to think it's alright to use mobile phones & let their kids run riot, thus making it hard for the rest of us to hear & enjoy what is being said by the speakers !! Ok, I know they're kids - but some sort of control should be in place to keep them 'quiet'....... maybe sleeping gas or a swift boot up the butt, to remind the parents that they are spoiling things for the rest of us !!
The Lord did say He wanted the children in the Church, but !!!!!! Never mind - one of them is nearly 12, so I guess they are a law unto themselves - BUT, how about giving the rest of us a break ? Life goes on......
....& talking about life - it's not been the best of weeks here in this old household of ours... mostly my fault !!
I was fine on the Monday, but by Tuesday evening I was poorly - Wednesday just came & went..... but, by Thursday/Friday I was just about getting over 'it' !! These 'poorly' spells are getting closer & closer together and to be honest, they are taking their toll on all of us...... But, the out come of all of this is - I now have a nurse !! Yep - a nice lady came around to see me & is coming back later this week to make sure I'm Ok !!
B - my Wife & Dearest Friend - is still looking after me - but, the nurse is an 'extra'..... just until I get a little better within myself. I didn't think I was that poorly, but I've had to bow to presure from those that know.... ain't life grand ?!! I'll see how things go, it's a bit too early to see how the nurse is going to help, tho' I'm sure she will !!
It's Father's Day here in old England !! I've had 4 cards - tho' nothing from my Son in Canada...... It's been 2 years now, since I last heard from him & it does play on my mind - wondering how he is & everything. It was his birthday on the 14th - but........ well, as usual, we sent a card - if he got it, I guess we'll never know !
We sent it to the only address we have for him, so hopefully it'll find it's way there !!
As for the family - well, J is looking after me this afternoon & the ladies of the house have gone to where ME works..... something about getting her ears done (again) !! Good luck to them I say - I don't fancy it myself !!
ME has had some great news this week - she has passed her 2nd year at Uni !! That's brilliant - she really has worked hard for it !! One more year to go & then she'll be qualified - go girl !!
The music of the moment is the Allman Brothers - an old live album of theirs. It's only 2 weeks until we see Greg Allman in concert - 2 weeks - and we can't wait !! Everything is in place, all I have to do is make sure I'm well enough for the trip..... I do NOT want to miss this show, just because I feel under the weather !!
Oh well - enough of my moaning World..... I must have a little sleep..........ZZZZZzzzzzzzzz
Bye Bye
