She said.”Because if you’re like me and stuck at home already, or if you’re going to be like me soon, the days of the week are going to be hell to keep track of. We have a wonderful community here on WordPress, and I’m sure many people are feeling nervous and/or isolated. I want to make sure every one of us has somewhere to congregate and someone to talk to.
Why am I writing this post ? Because it’s day Seven since we have been told by Bossa to stay home and socially distance ourselves. We are all in different circumstances and yet we are all in the same boat.
How did your day start! Mine started the same as every day since lock down! I stripped the bed and changed it, put the washing on, we then walked Ruby.
When I got home the washing was done so I hung it out, it was incredibly windy and the duvet cover flew off the washing line, unfortunately the washing line is on the part of the garden that Ruby uses as a toilet… Hence I needed to wash the duvet again! Long story short I got two lines of washing out !
Female, wife, full time mother and Grandmother. I am not as happy go lucky as I used to be but I am still bubbling along on simmer! I have three handsome sons all grown and flown.The youngest married with a beautiful wife and two sons of his own. Eleven years ago I was working, running a home, driving and socializing then bang in a split second all that was gone. I had an accident at home. I broke my back, not for the first time, I had broken it 10 years previously as well. Unfortunately this time I had broken it really badly and it was truly messed up so I had to have two operations. I was told before each operation that the outcome could mean I spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair. Still as some guy once wrote "I am still standing " yes "better than I ever was " not quite but with the help of a walking stick and as long as I do not stand or sit in one position for too long, I am still standing! Update I no longer use the walking stick . I had lots of friends before the accident but when things like this happen, you loose most of them. Their lives move on and mine stood still and so they left me behind ...I know that is just the way life is but it hurt and always will. Then I looked around and saw those who were still there for me, these friends are the roses in my garden they need to be tended well. They are the diamonds in the dust, I will of been married 50yrs plus this year . Pain and boredom are my enemies now, I have to find different ways to approach life, use my pain befriend it almost...yer right , well that is what they tell me at the pain clinic ROFLMAO ...... if only I could! I have found an outlet for my fears, frustrations and night terrors . I have started writing poetry if that name can be applied to my writing. I hope I do not come over as a moaning winger. I hope I am past all that. I also hope that you might see how the poetry is moving from very dark through the grey and
hopefully in to light ??
I need to update this a little here. I have worked very hard over the years since my accident, I go to the gym regularly, I have a Pilates class and a core class once a week . The guys at the gym and my Pilates teacher cajoled, teased, bullied and encouraged me to abandon my walking stick! :) My back is no longer straight it is C shaped because of the injury and I have lost two and a half inches in height but my Pilates and Core teachers have helped me to stand up as straight and as strongly as possible. Pain and depression are still hanging on my arm but I have weapons to use against them and if I say so myself I cope well.
I have made lots of new friends, real diamonds. I am also very grateful for all the support and help I have encountered here on Wordpress. Hugs and welcome to everyone who visits.

Bond is one of my husband’s and my favorite groups! And both the Bond song and the one by Glen Hansard, Marketa Irglova were fantastic! Thank you for taking me on the walk with you and your pup. What a beautiful dog and the scenery to die for! You remind me, I need to start using my Bitmojis! Sending virtual hugs! You stay safe out there, too!
It was a funny day and what with the washing line breaking and the wind dragging clean washing over the lawn. All the bad news was getting to so I decided, good thoughts happy music hugs. We are all in together we can all lift eachother. Oh! I didn’t say I didn’t quite hot the spot with dinner last night, hubby didn’t like it as much as usual! I decided he might just feel like me and be hiding it so, I just let it go and smile! That’s what we need patience and smiles 💜💜💜
I guess chasing around the laundry was stress relieving in a way. Sorry you had to rewash the duvet. Those are hard to wash, and putting covers back on nearly impossible! Yeah, the meals aren’t always a hit, but we are grateful to be eating somewhat healthily here at the end of the month. Virtual, virus free hugs, my friend! 🤗💜💜💜
Thank you for the hugs, much needed, thankfully washing line is mended , I did better with dinner tonight. Sending you hugs hugs and healthy vibes 💜💜💜
Thanks for the love and hugs! Glad line is mended and dinner is a happy meal! 🤗🙏💜
