Feeling Good

I like that title 'feeling good' - it makes me feel that things are progressing. My health is improving - but very slowly. The medication I am taking makes me feel fine and the doctor says my inflammation levels have gone right down - but I am still taking steroids - though a very low dose. At present I am on 3 mg soon I will take 2 and then gradually going down. Then I was told my thyroid level under active and so I went on levothyroxine - some months later I had to double the dose - but so far I think it is Ok and the doctor is pleased with that.

Today has been a lovely day - early spring - a little cold - but some sunshine! This brings me hope and well-being so that is why I am 'feeling good'. I am adding a picture I took a few years ago - but thought it appropriate to show it when I am feeling like this.

My main problem at present is my new lap top. I am typing this on my old PC, because I am having so much trouble getting familiar with the new computer. It is the notorious 8.1. Mostly I use this old computer as I feel it is so much more efficient. The only problem is that is is so old and it is XP which is no longer supported so one day it will die a computer death. I do try and keep up with technology but it changes all the time and so I find it difficult. But I am not too bad for an 80 year old.

Yesterday was a family celebration for my youngest daughter's birthday. It was a lovely day and all the family were there. The tea was lovely and so was the company! So I suppose the happy feelings I had then are making me feel so much brighter today.
Bright berries!


A lovely day at Ruislip Lido!

 The photo with the berries - I just found - I don't remember when I took it but I thought it was quite cheerful.

I have a new camera now so intend to take lots more photos.

That is all for now!
