The passing of time...

Well, I'm still alive... after a fashion. Haven't written a thing for days though, so I don't really count that as actually living, more like surviving, and it's years since surviving has been enough for me.

Got the antibiotics yesterday, and now into the second day of a treatment that seems to be achieving nothing. Still feel as though I've had a good kicking, particularly in the chest area, even breathing is painful, but I'm here... and I'm still breathing... and for once I'm typing... so I guess things could be worse.

Three weeks and I'll be down in Cornwall... visiting the Uni, walking the campus and trying to look confident whilst feeling anything but. A few people to talk to whilst I'm there, including the Estate Agent, and maybe some properties to look at. God... hard to believe it's now only four months or so before we'll be moving down there... and our daughter's family take over here. I dread to think what they'll be doing to the house whilst we're gone.

Okay, the sun's shining, time for me to go for a shower, pull on some clothes and get on with my life. Maybe today I'll be able to write something worthwhile for a change. Ever the optimist...

  1. Hope you're feeling much better, Chris. It sounds like you'll have a busy but exciting trip to Cornwall and UCF. All good things ahead! :-)

  2. Ah, dear one, you'll be fine. One small step for some, one giant leap (off a cliff) for others. Either way it's moving forward.

  3. Many thanks Carol Anne, yes I'm feeling a lot better and the excitement is beginning to build. Actually I reckon we could be down there in the next couple of months as our daughter and her family will be moving into our house as soon as the sale of theirs has been completed. Hope that makes sense.

    As always a pleasant surprise to hear from you Kristal. Yeah, you know me too well girl, it'll be a leap from a clifftop for me every time, and there are plenty of those down in Cornwall.

    Take care both of you - be happy.

  4. This is why you heart me. I know you, just by knowing me, and that's good enough. :D

    Just remember, I'll be the trampoline waiting at the bottom if you need one.
