It’s done! My operation is cancelled. [emoji322][emoji4][emoji4][emoji4]

I have to go back if things deteriorate, but otherwise it is up to me to keep up with the exercise and swimming to keep my shoulder moving.

I am not free of pain, but I am not in agony either and the range of movement has improved to the point where getting dressed isn’t anything like the problem it was. At one stage I couldn’t do up my bra and I had to wear cardigans because I couldn’t put a jumper on over my head.
That is awesome news. Well done on sticking to the plan and achieving it. Very proud of you.

The song was new and often played in radio at the same time when I`ve got a very old cat in my care. It was not one of my cats but I cared for this old neglected tomcat for 4 months at the end of his life.
He was suffering kidney failure that got worse from day to day. Every evening I left him in his room alone I feared that he will be dead in the morning so that: If tomorrow never comes .... ( for him )
You understand ?
He died, but peacefully and naturally. I think he knows that he was very much loved at the end of his life.
Yes I understand. And I am sure he is waiting for you on the other side of the rainbow along with all your other beloved pets.

I just bumped into the Dad of a former friend of my son's. The boys used to play in the same football team until they were about 9.

The Dad has had a really rough time. He got sick after eating reheated rice from a Chinese takeaway meal and this led to a muscle wasting problem. The muscle wastage led to a heart attack and also has left him with one arm that is partially paralysed. It is so shocking; this guy was a fitness fanatic and spent loads of time at the gym. I had heard that reheating rice was likely to make you sick, but had no idea it could get this bad.

So... DON'T REHEAT RICE! EVER!!!!
That is really scary.

Good morning we had a weekend that was quiet (in that we had no plans), but busy.

Saturday was spent gardening (JoesDad is a bit stiff from the digging I had him do) and yesterday we went out to do some birdwatching at a local reservoir and bought some Golden Barbs for our tropical aquarium on the way home.

I hope you all had a good weekend.

Today, I must wade through paperwork as my school governor meeting season begins tomorrow. If I am back here too soon, tell me off because I am
procrastinating [emoji23] Not see you once I have finished!
