Re: Not sure what to do !!!

that is soo true @Appleblossom

Times like these that you might have to lead ... as the elders lose their strengths ...kind of leading from behind ... taking the responsibilities as they are most pressing.---

yes sometimes tht feeling strange and wondering how do i start or continue to lead

any suggestions or tips would be great

Maybe like being the last one in a bush walk, so that you can see what is going on up front. Self Care and dont micro manage.

Hugs @Shaz51

Hello and hugs @outlander , @Appleblossom , @Owlunar , @Former-Member , @Jacques , @Former-Member , @Determined , @Smc , @Adge , @Mrsjones , @Sophie1 ,

very black up here now after being sooo hot and muggy today

we cleaned a house and mowed 2 lawns through lots of sweat

rain now and it feels like stormy weather

we are mowing a lawn for someone who is away -- we mowed today and the owners have arrived home today

mr shaz got a red flag for his licence , all fixed for another year -- ahhhhhh

me --- well the doctor was soo surprised with all the blood tests and scans done , he wondered why !!!!!

anyway the blood tests came back ok , the scan shows my kidney level is down a bit but the gallbladder, liver, panceas, to ok , the kidney was a little sad but ok

so he has ordered some more blood test in a months time and then i see he kidney specialist in march

my mum said she had another fall , don`t think her hip will ever be ok again
