Flirting makes the world go round

Still a wee bit on the sluggish side today, but it's brighter outside and I'm feeling brighter too. Amazing what a little bit of sunshine does to the spirits... Ooo maybe I have SAD syndrome as well, nah as I love being snuggled up on the sofa with 'Midsummers Murders', a cup of tea and a bourbon biscuit on a gloomy day too!
But my mother has this idea that if I'm home and breathing, then we should be doing something! So I prepared and packed mother and myself some healthy fish salads and set off for 'our spot' on Maldon prom. Crowds had thinned out, but still plenty to watch from the comfort of my car and a riot of colour going on out there.
The boating lake is obviously the place to meet a man, as there was four of them with their remote controlled boats playing on the lake as well as two men crabbing. It was actually quite entertaining to watch, as there is definitely boat envy going on with them. You could almost hear them go 'Woo' as an old guy stepped up to the lake with a not one, but a three masted sailing boat and lovingly handmade over the last two years no doubt. And bugger me, if my mother wasn't waving and smiling at them all... the floozy! God I hope she doesn't want me to go on a double date with her!

I was very relieved that for once that I had to go to rehab and before my mother was branded a scarlet woman, I set off home.
Rehab was ok, not as packed as it has been and there was a new lady that was nearer my age than all of the others. They are all very sweet, but it's beneficial for me to have someone that I can chat to otherwise I drag my heels at going each time.
My mother wanted to come with me today, but no doubt if she did, she'd be chatting the men up there too! God I can imagine it... walking sticks at twenty paces by the wives that tag along. Still the act of flirting puts roses in her cheeks and I must admit I do take after her... just a little bit of course.

Lots of love Debbie x
