GOOD NEWS

The day has finally arrived when I hear the results of my tests.

What is good news?  Nothing is wrong?  Why do I feel so tired?  Am I just not coping with old age?

One of our friends from Colebrook, who was a faithful church attender and Bible study participant will be moving into a care home because she cannot deal with her life.  It is so easy to feel alone and lost and discouraged.  People have tried to keep in touch and we all feel sad that this has happened.

The support of my family as well as the support of my church has been a real blessing.

Yes my heart is very good and strong.
They can use it for a heart trans plant when I die!

The doctor gave me some new natural pills to take to help me sleep.

I wish we could all feel healthy and strong.

I am thankful I can walk even is it is a shorter walk.

Love mom

It always sucks to hear nothing is wrong, which is weird since who really wants to be told that there is anything wrong.

Mary is hoping Kimberly can change her flight time and get there a bit earlier so she can drive out and see her.

That is good news Beth! Your heart works well! Are you on any medications, like blood pressure pills? They tend to tire one out and also make one gain weight.

I am on prednisone and have been off and on for the last few years and it is terrible to try and decrease and eventually stop taking...each mlg I decrease causes me side effects, like weakness and and tiredness. they did heart tests for me too and I am fine. the symptoms are from reducing the drug...so i will get there one day. I have to do it slowly, a mg a month. it will be 7 months. but I will do it! It is an awful drug. I have Lupus.

I am listening to the Liberace channel on my radio and enjoying the music very much. My Mom took me to see him when he came to the arena in Winnipeg. Such beautiful music.

How is the Covoid virus in your area? Is it increasing in numbers too? I find it very hard not to start teaching classes again...I have been teaching piano lessons since I was 16...not that is 60 years ago..and to not start again when it is fall, it is really sad. I will try doing the zoom lessons over the internet.

I am sorry to see that Ken has had to retire...and I hope that he is able to find work that he would like to do. The Covoid virus has really caused a lot of people problems and is changing the way we live. I think it is going to be a tough winter here....

The weather has 'snapped' and gone into fall overnight. It feels wonderful to be cooler and today we have received a lot of rain. I cannot go for a walk with Pedro because it is coming down hard...he doesn't like it and I don't have a rain coat for him. He is looking though!

Have a lovely evening and a good sleep,
LOve to you both,
Nancy
