LIFE A LITTLE QUIETER

We are not getting around as much as usual, as Barry has a debilitating conditon that is giving him a lot  pain. It actually started back in May, and he stuck it our for a while but now having Bowen Therapy and trips to the doctor whilst trying to sort out the medication etc.  We missed out on a Christmas in July last night and there have been some other attractions that we would have attended.

We have cancelled our Aged Care concerts, but still able to play in church for the mid-week service, etc, and continue with our Music with Friends Strumalong which is two Saturdays a month.  Our offshoot group from that, Silver Strings is participating in a concert soon.

Barry has been so overwhelmed by my help, and thankful that I am staying well, that he has kept fresh flowers in the house for weeks now.

Next time: all about my indoor cat Tansy.

Welcome back. So sorry to hear Barry is not well. It creeps up on us all as we get older. Growing old is not for sissies but its better than the alternative. You are lucky to get the beautiful flowers in the house. I would love that.
