Thoughts for June!

For some reason I have been having problems with this blog. I haven't written since last year. There seems to be a problem with this web site.

This hasn't been a good year for me so far. I have had some health problems which seem to be hanging on. However I don't feel too bad as I am taking medication to ease the problem. But I seem to be going to the doctors surgery for blood tests, doctors consultation and getting prescriptions and all this seems to be taking lots of energy.

I have given up going to my Fine Arts Group and Yoga and the Book club, but still find life quite busy.

I am still going to the market on Tuesdays. Have I written about this in the past - I don't remember. I have been quite successful in selling collectable for some years but this year I haven't done well at all and I have been feeling very despondent about it. But the last three weeks have improved a bit so I feel better about it

I have seen the family quite a bit recently as there have been some school holidays and they have had more time to see me.

This summer I am going to be 80 years old. I cannot believe that it is possible for me to be so old. In many ways I don't feel it or look it. But there are times that I really feel my age. I am going to celebrate by having a family tea party at a local hotel. I am looking forward to it.

I do feel anxious about things these days which I think is a sign of aging!

Last year I did quite a bit of travelling. From California to Seattle - then flying to Toronto. It was a really good but tiring time. Then in the New Year I went to Iceland for 3 days. That was a good trip also. I now have a trip to Toronto to look forward to this August.

 I hope the next time I write I will be a bit more positive enthusiastic.
