Good Morning Early Birds

[emmie]

morning all, i hope you are in good spirits and health, and that your day is a good one. Do you have anything planned for today? I am meeting friends for coffee later on this morning, so we can have a chat about our week, which has whizzed by - where does the time go.

Good morning, Emmie.

If I've got anything at all planned for today, it's probably sleeping! My body clock is all over the place as usual. (Actually, I think that it's more of a sun dial than a clock, as it seems totally unable to function other than in bright sunlight!). However I might stay up all day (having got up at 7.30pm last night, after a 13-hour kip, and having been up since then) and not go to bed until some time tomorrow. I'll just have to see how I feel!

You're right about the weeks whizzing by. It won't be long now . . .

morning Chris

[emmie]

i couldn't cope with that kind of sleeping/awake day, it would for me at least, make me unable to function at all.

[emmie]

i can't think about Christmas yet, though i am hoping that its not as bad as the last one. Like Minty my birthday falls on Christmas Day and so its another year older, sigh ...

[Buenchico]

I'm not sure that I function very effectively even at the best of times ;-)

I gave up worrying about getting older many years ago. My feeling on each birthday nowadays is simply "Wow! Have I really beaten the odds to survive so long as this?"
;-)

[emmie]

i too try not to worry about getting older, except for the health aspects, pain in both knees reminds me of that that fact though, osteo arthritis is a nuisance and is only likely to get worse, i try and walk it off, but haven't yet found any pain relief that works.

[emmie]

i know you have been through a lot, and that's putting it mildly, and am not sure how you do it to be honest

[Buenchico]

Have you tried CBD oil? Some people seem to swear by it but the jury still seems to be out among the medical profession.

[emmie]

no i haven't tried it,

[Buenchico]

It's FAR from cheap but it might be worth a try:

Hello both.
Born on Christmas day?
All your gifts at once, then a year to wait.
Sob, sob.

Good morning all.

[emmie]

afternoon 1ozzy, i used to get loads of presents when a child now its just a few...

[Buenchico]

Good morning, 1ozzy (even though we've already met on other threads) and Danny.

[emmie]

morning Danny

>>> i used to get loads of presents when a child now its just a few

Obviously! After all, Father Christmas hasn't got time to deliver presents to grown-ups as well as to all the kids in the world, has he?

;-)

[emmie]

no he doesn't, i still like getting some though, its the thought that counts.

[1ozzy]

Chris, Santa has lots of helpers and a delivery team.
Granted it's a narrow window in which to deliver, but, with all his assets, no excuses !!

[emmie]

depends on whether i am with family who live in West Sussex.. i hope i get invited this year, as i haven't seen them since August last year. so will be a long time since we were together.

[1ozzy]

Fingers crossed for you Emmie,,,
