Plenty of Pimms for you @Anastasia . It’s just started raining again grr. Would you believe I don’t have a dryer!! I think I’ll buy myself new sheets for Christmas lol
I’ve seen the hand therapist this morning and she was pleased with my movement but not the swelling so I now have an extra compression bandage under the splint.
I hope you’re ok??? I have a feeling that you may have had a few tough days lately.
Big hugs
❤️💚🤗🤗💚❤️

Hi beautiful @Eve7 gosh I have missed you!
Thank you for your message, new sheets are always lovely 🙂
Sorry to hear about your swelling, I hope the bandage helps ease it, so pleased to hear it is otherwise improving. You are doing great with it xox
I'm okish hun just tired, tired, tired and long for better times. I shouldn't, I should just be grateful they are as good as they are.
Riding the covid scare wave at present as family directly affected and may result in changing/cancelling our Christmas plans, please, please I hope not 😞
At work so better fly. Love you, please keep taking care of you my very dear friend xox

I have relatives in that covid hotspot @Anastasia such a worry.
Now I’m glad I saw my Mum and sister (they’re not affected) even though it was difficult.
I just heard the beaches have closed in that hot spot which will make things difficult.
I’ll get some more Pimms for us.
Deep breath
❤️💚❤️

@Anastasia Thanks. She’s much better. I will keep a close eye on her, but it’s good to know the problem now. I’m slowly adjusting after panic mode. 🤪🤪😳😳
I hope you manage, it’s really hard knowing it’s starting in clusters, and this time of year is really tough. Big ❣️❣️❣️

Good morning @Anastasia 😄
I hope you are feeling better today? I see from the latest press conference that there are now tougher rules throughout Greater Sydney. As well as lockdown to Northern Beaches. So this could be impacting you even further.
Bit concerned about your Dad too I imagine, as he would be immune compromised from his cancer treatment. Such a worrying time for you.
Thinking of you right now @Anastasia and hoping you can push through these latest setbacks and disappointments around Christmas and your Birthday.
Sending lots of love your way beautiful, and a big heartfelt hug.
Emelia 😄💞 👀🍒🎄
