Retired (re very tired)

OK so I accepted that going back to nursing would be a bit of a faff but I didn’t think (until my beloved doctor told me) that no nurse or doctor was on duty 24/7

Although Badger is doing a wonderful impression of not having terminal cancer or having suffered a severe stroke he has his moments – giddy, unable to stand and brain scrambled. 

What is taking up my time is worrying about him. Even asleep I keep checking his breathing, making sure he hasn’t laid on one of the cats or is strangling himself with the covers.

Worrying comes naturally to me, I am a Yiddisher Momma – but this is relentless. Hence my absence from anti social media recently – that and a very unkind person calling me self absorbed…….. Sorry, sister, but I am all I have at the moment, if I don’t write about me I am out of material!!!

So on the face of it Badger is doing great except when he isn’t and I am doing a frantic juggling act between doing everything and forcing him to do what he is able to. I fetch the firewood in but he is capable of carrying a shopping bag – see the difference

I love all my FB and Tweepie family and miss talking to you – along with my new attitude of “my happiness is of my own making and responsibility” I am going to make time to get out in the web world and see what you are all up to.

We also seem to be adopting cats all over the place – every time I see a feline outside I rush to bring it a bowl of bikkie – this could be my age as I am now officially an OAP in France.  That is another story and several tons of paperwork – wouldn’t you know it?

So Ancient Crone signing out and promising to be more in touch xxxxx
