Hot today. Muggy. Severe case of cantbearseditus. Spent most of it munching biscuits and reading all my blogrolling blogs, including listening to a couple of podcasts. Pure induldgence. Cleaned both toilets, family bathroom and our shower room. Apart from the floors. White, tiled floors covered with brunette hairs. Requires me to get on my hands and knees to clean so not been done. *Sigh*. I can feel another few pounds piling onto my hips. Am I bovvered?
Granddad hasn't been well. *big sigh* I love my Granddad, the first father-figure I remember. Three children and none of them drive. One grandchild. She drives; lives half the world away mind. Literally. He usually does the shopping as my Gran can't see very well these days and hasn't been the same since she broke her hip two years ago. Mum spent the latter part of New Years Day in a taxi to the emergency pharmacist. £40 fare. He didn't charge her waiting time. How kind. *sneer* Still, the drugs she collected made Granddad feel better. He'd been taking whiskey up until that point - lol. He tripped up the step in the bakers. "Oh dear, are you alright? Can I get you a chair or anything?" enquired the lovely, buxom shop assistant. "Aye, a large brandy," quipped Granddad. I think he got a couple o'meat and potato pasties and a couple of cream buns free. He's 90 and still knows how to work the ladies!

When you run so fast to get somewhere
you miss the fun
of getting there.
Life is not a race,
so take it slower,
hear the music before the music is over, take your time and stay happy...
