Yep - it's Monday, a little after 12 noon & it's really nice & warm here in the house !! Outside - well, we've had our first proper snow of the Winter........ by which I mean, we have had about an inch of the stuff & it's not staying at all !!
Last night, we had a severe weather warning for our area....... unless something majors happen in the next few hours - well, once again, the weather man got it wrong !! Am I surprised ? No - it's normal for us !! They say one thing & the Lord sends us something totally different !! Nevermind.... my life goes on !!
Right - as I type, B is out, in town, ME is upstairs & J is behind me getting some lunch. I was going to go with B - but, as it's not too nice outside & I'm not 100% - well, we decided I would be better off staying at home. She'll be home sometime after 2pm (I guess) - mainly after she has done the shopping & stuff, she'll kill a bit of time in the gym..... she was going to make a separate trip, going in later... but, to save fuel & what have you, she's going to do it all this 'morning'.
As mentioned - I'm not 100%. I started to feel low on Friday night & that was about it, for the rest of the weekend !! I rested up on Saturday & really was completely out of it Sunday !! So, for another week, we were not at Church !! Tho' we had a lovely e-mail from the Bishop - telling me not to worry & he knows why we're not there... well, I would of loved to have been able to go. As it was, B had to give me a sleeping tablet, mainly as I was up my limit on pain medication & I slept like a baby for more hours than I really should have !! I didn't wake up until after lunch - honestly, I slept & slept !!
I had to get up early this morning tho' - it was time for a check up with my local GP. We explained how things have been & he assures me, things will get better - I just have to hang in there a while !! Well, it's been over 10 years now - so, I guess I've hung in there this long - I can try & flap my arms a little longer !! He has left my pills & potions alone, for now - but, on Friday, I'm seeing another Consultant.... so, maybe she will change things around. Time will tell.........
I also had my hair cut this morning !! Now there is some "big news" - but.... with the new hairdresser in the village (they have been open 6 months now) - it's easier for me to get there with B's help of course !! Anyhoooooo, I've had another hair cut........ I've had more hair cuts in the last 6 months, then I probably had in the previous 2 years !! If nothing else - it's tidy.... that's about all really !! I used to have really long hair - the pony tail, the lot !! Oh well - at least I still have my hair........ onwards !!
I was reading a blog this morning - it's 10 years since the Oklahoma ice storm hit !! I really do remember that, seeing it on the news & everything. To read a blog, by someone who was in the middle of it - well, it sounds like it was really bad !! I've seen trees hanging with ice - like it has been spayed on, but not as bad as they were back then. We're lucky with our weather here - we do get some snow, but - as we're soooo close to the sea, it rarely hits too hard.... well, I don't think so, at least !!
The snow is still falling, outside - but... it has a long way to go, to even start pitching on the roads & what have you !!
The music of the moment is (again) the wonderful Allman Brothers. I'm listening to the DVD, that came out in 2003 (I think) from their Beacon shows in New York, that year. I can't be bothered to watch the pictures, so I'm just playing it & watching the news on the BBC........ good old Aunt Beeb !! It's good music - it must be - one of the cats is on his back, paws up in the air, completely "zonked" !! See, even the pets enjoy my musical taste !!
I wasn't thinking too hard about posting today - so, I had a quick glance at the Zeppelin concerts & I found one !! From January 30th 1973. The band were on a British tour & today (January 30th) they did a show in Preston, Lancashire. I have a 2Cd set:
CD 1
1) Rock & Roll
2) Over The Hills & Far Away
3) Black Dog
4) Misty Mountain Hop
5) Since I've Been Loving You
6) Dancing Days
7) Bron-Y-Aur Stomp
8) The Song Remains The Same
9) The Rain Song
CD 2
1) Dazed & Confused
2) Stairway To Heaven
3) Whole Lotta Love
The 2nd Cd's always seem to be shorter - track wise - but, with 'Dazed & Confused' being 20+ minutes long & 'Whole Lotta Love' being a long medley of stuff - well, time wise it all balances out. As always, don't buy bootlegs...... More another day.....
I was just thinking about getting myself something to "eat" - by that, I mean one of my "yummy" drink things I have to live with......... so, I am now looking at a wonderful summer fruits flavoured drink & thinking maybe I should skip it - but, I need something to keep me going & I don't fancy anything else !! So............. !!
Ok - my plans for today !! I have to change the washing in the machine (put in a new load) & that's about it really...... I'm going to have to head back to bed, for a while or else I'm going to fall asleep where I sit & that would be bad !! It's a comfy computer chair thingy - but, not too good to sleep on !! Maybe I should do the whole cat thing ? Lay on my back, put my hands & feet into the air.... I somehow don't think that would be too good either !!
So, for now, I will away... until next time, thank you for reading !!
Bye Bye
