An extremely frustrating morning. Didn’t end up getting what
I needed and had nightmares with tech. I need to do some yoga… and, breathe. So
much to do today but really don’t have the energy to do it. Sending love to Sheila
and wishing good luck for today.
An email I received today made me think how lucky Hub and I are
to have our Son and small family of my brother and family and my brother in law
and SIL.
Our extended family are our close friends and I love them dearly.
They say you can’t choose your family but you can your friends, rubbish, you
can walk away from family members who are bad people. Unless you are in a
dreadful situation where you physically or financially can’t get away, and that
was the email I received today. My heart goes out to anyone in that position. All
I can do is keep in contact with that lovely person and try to get them to a
good place. Remember this saying.
Some people are like clouds, when they go away, it’s a much
brighter day.
My other subject today is family traditions. They are passed
on through your parents and you try to uphold them with your children, I think
along the way, they become weaker as your children marry into another family
who don’t hold your past and present views, for example, Hubs piano, it means
the world to us, our Son was to receive it after the unfortunate parting to
another world of Hub and myself. But if BW marries his now girlfriend, no way
she will want the piano so unless our Grand children show interest, then it
will go to charity. When I am dusting it, I’m sad as we want to pass it down to
our Son. I guess though better to have one child not wanting things than two or
more who will fight over it and end up falling out, smile. Looking back with my
Mum I didn’t get anything after she died apart from a beautiful jewellery box
my Dad bought her when they first got married. My brother wasn’t the kind of
person to fight either for anything and he went on holiday so we sorted out
things the best way I knew in my grief and that was to get those dreadful
companies out to collect the lot and give you pennies. When I think back, I really
wish I had saved more of her things but I was in so much pain with the grief of
losing her and my Dad and my sight in such a short time and my baby would shout for his Nanna and Grandad every time we
entered the house, he was only a year but he knew where he was and who should have been there. It
may sound crazy, but to know no matter how many times he called for them, they
would never be there anymore. It killed me! Also, there was rent to pay on the
property money I didn’t have. So, I needed to hand over the house as soon as
possible. Thank God Hub and I never have to do that.
Do you think there will be such things in the future as family
traditions? I fear not. But I am pleased to see parks still full of families at
weekends. So at least parents still take their children out.
Chili have visited our blog page today, hello to you whoever
you are. Some other countries include Ukraine, Canada, France, US, Russia,
Indonesia, Italy and of course the UK.
Almost 360,000 views in total now, and when I started, I thought
maybe 12 of my friends. Smile. Thank you
to Vicki, Louise and Donna for your constant support too I so appreciate you
and every single one of you who read this. James asked me to write about today’s
subject. This is something that has always interested me since a child. I remember
quizzing my school pals about this but none of them including my lovely Husband
as a child, knew where I was coming from. Whether they knew about this or just
were not interested, I don’t know but I used to get so tense as I wanted to
talk about this, as it intrigued me.
The Bermuda Triangle is known to be one of the worlds most
dangerous bodies of water but scientists have proven that it isn’t scarier than
any other part of the ocean, so why have so many flights and ships, gone
missing around that area? Well the conclusion is that it’s such a big body of
water it’s inevitable that would happen. Hmm. I still like my theory. The odd
thing is, nothing went missing for quite some time. I think last year three
people went missing and in 2015 two boys went fishing their boat was found a year
later but the boys were never found. A couple of light house men went missing
too and in total I think about a thousand people have lost their lives, or,
gone somewhere else been taken may be to another planet? I know when I was a child
there were lots of talk that the flights mainly had Doctors and scientists on
board and that made me think, whoever is taken them, needs our best brains… as
for the scientists who claim to understand why these crafts went missing, well
how come as many haven’t gone missing in other parts of the water over such a
long time? And to not find ships aeroplanes and bodies is too spooky.
The first listing of a ship going missing was right back to
the 1800’s and a huge gap from the seventies to 2015. Why such a gap if it’s
still a huge body of water, so surely things should still go missing? Hmm. I still
believe they were taken by other aliens. To not find anything after the event
is just too weird.
In our news, I’m glad to say that our bakers in the UK
Greggs has made a huge profit and they are saying it’s because of the vegan
sausage rolls. Well Hub as I have said prefers them to the pig ones. And they
are delicious. Moreish in fact. I have received a few emails from people saying
they tried them and they will never buy the meat ones again and they are far
from vegan or vegetarians. Good old Greggs. Not everything vegan is delicious,
so when we come across something that is, it’s great news. Next time my brother
in law comes I’m going to give him one of them and not say see if he notices. Hahaha.
Last time he had the meet ones.
House selling prices in the UK have gone up by 5.6 per cent
in February, great for those selling but not for those buying.
If you are using Google Chrome, update asap as there has
been a bug.
Oh Michael Jackson. A documentary viewed in the UK has
caused lots of fuss. Personally, I don’t believe the two guys who are saying
they were abused. And I hope I am right with my opinion. It’s so unfair when
the man is dead. Who will fight his case? His poor children. I think now days
he would be classed as transsexual or gender fluid or whatever other titles are
floating about now, I don’t believe he was gay or a paedophile. If the poor man
is innocent, I hope he is oblivious to what is going on here. If he is guilty,
then I hope the men win their case, give all the money to charity and Michael
is sitting at the table with the man in horns with a large fork.
This is scary, about 1 million women in the UK and 5% of women
in the US take HRT and a huge study of 160,000 women have been researched by
scientists in Finland and it’s shown that the people taking HRT, are at risk of
developing Alzheimer’s!
The study told that those taking the hormonal pills are at
20 percent more risk of developing Alzheimer’s. so, for every ten thousand
women who take the pills, 9 to 18 women would develop it per year.
More than five million people in America have Alzheimer’s. and
I read you have to be taking the pills for ten years for it to have this negative
effect, but ask your Doctor as the awful symptoms if you don’t take them are
scary too.
Early signs of H are being able to function, but is having
memory lapses.
Middle stage person may get words muddled or have mood
changes.
And the last stage, well it’s not good. Now don’t panic as
most people over the age of fifty have poor memories I put it down to not
having to remember half what we used to so our brains have turned to mush. Loads
of my friends honestly, I talk to them and I know they have forgotten what they
told me last time we met up or they forgot what they were about to do, so don’t
worry if you are now reaching for your phone to call your Doctor. Haha. Just if
you are taking HRT, have a word to be reinsured next time you visit your Dr. it
does say you have to be taken the pills for a decade and it only effects a
small amount of people. But small amount is enough and what is the alternative?
To prevent the symptoms or slow down, do exercise and eat
oily diets, Urg. Especially for the latter, no way I’m eating fish.
Get some fresh growing rosemary, that is meant to be good
for your memory. Just to sniff it apparently.
Well my beautiful Son has returned from work so I shall go
and serve his dinner. He looks tired, he’s had a long day. Hubs dinner is
cooked just waiting for him to return but
it won’t be until late then an exciting night for us. I shall go for now but
before I do some words.
Hope is like a bird that senses the dawn. And carefully
starts to sing whilst it’s still dark.
