I have paused from sorting shelves to write a short post. I was going to go out in the garden to trim the bushes but it began to rain.

I was staying at home as someone was coming to check my double oven. It is 23years old and now I have to choose a new one – black or stainless steel?

I had to take a painkiller as my back was hurting even when I was sitting down. I feel very envious of those of you who are managing to get about. Perhaps when I get a pavement scooter I will feel more like exploring. At present I am not enjoying driving

But I must keep up with the social side of my life, the meals out and the writing group. I have a short story to read to them and am tempted to have a go at the Scibble short story competition.

I am waiting for an xray on my neck. My son turned my mattress this week but it hasn’t made any difference. Maybe I will write again when I have any good news.
