I am a tired bunny. Stayed up far too late watching the Bee Gee throw back and Rachel Welch in the old film called One Billion Years BC. It was addictive watching as I couldn't stop giggling at it, with her perfectly made up eyes and their coiffured hair. The nice thing was it was shot in Lanzarote's National Park and that brought back warm memories of earlier this year when we went on our cruise. I think I should have recorded it and reminisced today, as I was quite grumpy come lunchtime when I took my mother out.
I don't think it helped when mother turned up an hour early on my doorstep after I just reminded her about 30 minutes previously on the phone that I would come and collect her to save her walking. I was still ironing at that point and no where near ready in my housework clothes with no make-up on. She was in a bad mood too stating she was hungry and where I was feeling tired, all the signs weren't pointing to a relaxing lunch date.
The food was lovely, but the service was a bit on the slow side this week. I tried to put her off of having a sweet too as she had an upset tummy Friday night and I didn't want her to overload it as she had only eaten crackers yesterday. Listen to me? No chance. She ordered even by my standards a very sickly chocolate mousse which took ages to come and then she didn't eat more than two mouth fulls.
She kept talking about a rather obese man on the next table to us in her 'if I talk loudly out the side of my mouth, people will think I'm whispering' voice and I nearly died of embarrassment, when he stood near her to let another diner go by and she said that she hoped he 'didn't blow off in her face' in her loud whispering voice! Oh dear gawd, let the ground open up and swallow me. And to make matters worse it peed down with rain and I had left my washing out on the line.
I am worried about my eldest son too. I can't say why, but I can say if ever I wanted to cuddle him, it was now. Between your children and your parents it's enough to make you grey. Still tonight I will go to bed early as it's really windy outside and it's on the chilly side too, plus an added insult there is bog all on TV. Bank holiday?... whoopie flaming do!
Lots of love Debbie x

- Me...Debbie Burden... or known as Burders
- I'll be 55 this August... I've had bronchiectasis for ten years plus this year... End stage lung disease for the past year...been on oxygen for three years... and have I got used to it yet?... nah! I am now waiting for the biggie; a double lung and maybe a heart transplant. I love my life weirdly enough, because I have some wonderful family and friends who are with me every step of the way on my adventures, even though I embarrass them on a daily basis with my unorthodox way of looking at life. Not for the faint hearted!
