What a difference a year makes

[Nanny1086]

,what a difference a year makes, ,,, last year was a complete right off for me,,,,continuous repeated chest infections, 2 falls due to blood pressure not under control,causing smashed wrist that needed surgary,then two broken fingers ,so a year of physio,,,,,,,this year is going good so far ,,,I'm back at the gym under supervision of rehab nurses and Last week I managed 2.25 Klm on tread mill in 36 minutes some of it on incline,,,,so I was feeling good and proud,,,

Then a lovely weekend with my daughter and grandaughter,and gorgeous Itallian meal at Milano 's in Birmingham ,,,perfect ,,close to the car park and theatre,where we went to see Dirty Dancing ,,,then back to my daughters for a sleep over,,,,

Seems simple,,,,,but couldn't have done it last year .this is myself and my gorgeous granddaughter,the reason I work so hard to keep well,

Grandchildren make everything worthwhile don't they ,my Lois is my life,I work hard at the gym to make her proud of me like I'm proud of her,

I also had a chat with her about the dreaded smoking ,and she promised me ,,,,she will never smoke or take drugs,,,,and I know it's a promise to me that she will keep ,I can ask no more of her,
