Breaking the rules πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰

β€’26 Replies

After a fantastic night on the roof I finally came down at four thirty this morning πŸ˜‚ I've got everything sorted out and have a baby monitor in my dad's room with the other half on the roof which works well . Where there's a will there is a way πŸ‘ I decided today I was going to break my own rules and actually get out of the house and come down to see friends at my favourite taverna and have a frappa . What a welcome I got I haven't been left alone for a minute . Sometimes a rule is worth breaking to regain your sanity and I have kept safe by distancing and wearing my mask but so worth escaping πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Well done Davey . That was a good idea and now you can live a fuller life with friends who appreciate what you are doing in looking after your step dad.

I love it here because of the people it's totally a different way of life , walking down here I had many stops but so many people saying kalimara filimoos good morning my friend in English , so many people speaking.

That is lovely , i had forgotten that word filamou . How nice , only my immediate neighbours say hello if I am outside . Threw out lots of dead potted plants yesterday when we actually had some sunshine for a change from the rain . Shall we do a swap?. I remember all the signs in the loos showing a tap and "No rain until December".

That all sounds so good for you. You remind us all how powerful gratitude can be , as you are celebrating the good things in life ,even when there are so many setbacks. Like the health and environmental ones you have faced recently. Enjoy your friends company and the stars again tonight.

We have to be grateful for even the smallest things because they make life worth living even if your time is short live each day to the maximum . I enjoy my evenings looking at the stars I have good friends who have helped me through the difficult bits and even though I have worse to come I know I can face them πŸ‘πŸ‘

I'm back home after my rule breaking 🀣 it was fantastic and the response I got from some of the villagers when they saw me was beyond anything I could have imagined , they kept saying that it's great that I'm out and no longer a prisoner , but they gave me space aswell and the only time my mask was off was for food and coffee πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Sounds like it has done you world of good, and what a wonderful reception from friends & villagers. And bet you made your friends day too after all they haven’t spent time with you for so long and probably were concerned.

Do it more often now!!

Well I certainly made them laugh a couple of them passed comment that it's been really quiet without me cracking wise cracks , they seem to like my sense of humour don't know why I be always had it πŸ˜‚ there's a good rapport down at the taverna we all seem to have our little groups and enjoy nothing more than laughing at each other for one stupid thing or another , like today one of my friends was wearing pink shorts and on the table opposite someone said my friend must be Athenian wearing pink so I said quite straight faced not to make fun because I know that the guy who commented about the shorts wore is wife's underwear because she told me everyone started laughing and kept asking him for a flash , it was funny but done in the best taste .

Great banter amongst friends is priceless

β€’ in reply toMaggie_Mae

Well ya gotta have a laugh it's the best medicine or so I've been told by a wise person . Just took the rubbish to the bins at top of the road and I've found that damn donkey that was pushing my buttons last night so had a quiet word with it and said if he doesn't keep quiet I'll turn him into a donkey jacket and several kilos of salami πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ damn thing ignored me obviously doesn't understand English πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
