THOUGHTS OF VIRGINIA

JUST SAT THINKING OF THE FAMILIES AND FRIENDS OF ALL THE YOUNG STUDENTS AND MEMBERS OF STAFF WHO DIED YESTERDAY AT THE HANDS OF A GUNMAN.

SUCH A HEARTBREAKING TRAGEDY.

MY LOVE, THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE GIVEN SO WHOLLY TO ALL THE PEOPLE WHO LOST  LOVED ONES....

SO, SO SAD....WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS.....

GOD BLESS........

reflections

It's getting pretty close to my 50th birthday and I find myself starting to reflect upon life's events.

I expected life to pass by so very slowly but I find that if I blink, I miss 5 years without even knowing where they went to.

I also find that, the older I get, the more medication I need to take.

I've been taking the birth control pill since I was 23, only coming off it to have Steven, my youngest Son.

I also have to take medication now for an underactive thyroid condition.

I take medication for my anxiety attacks, which I have under control for now at least.

Now I found out this morning, that I have Reynauds disease, whatever that is. It makes my fingers sore and swollen,a little like Arthritis I suppose.

It's something to do with my Thyroid condition the Doctor told me, so guess what ? Yes.. even more medication to come now..Ahh me !!

I dont particularly feel any older than when I was 20 really.

Just occasionally I pass the mirror and see my wrinkles starting to form now... I prefer to call them laughter lines myself, sounds more dignified I think.

I suppose I just have to get used to being more mature now, because I'm stuck with it.

I seem to be be the kind of lady that, when I'm introduced to someone, they say " ah, she's sweet " I feel like the little old lady on Sylvester and Tweety...you know the one....with the bird cage..

I know I still have a long long way to go with my life yet, I'm not even a Nanna yet.Sooo looking forward to that....

Oh well, off I go to collect my new meds...

Speak to you again soon.

Take care Sweeties....
