Hi Mustangmo afraid so, amongst other things like most of us. Had a full body scan and was diagnosed about year ago. x

ARRR so lots of snow. makes me picture a lovely scenario in my mind, not all mushy like here in England, xx

Mustangmo in reply touggycat

It is mushy as they haven't cleaned up from last winter and all the dirt and salt and sand are still on roads. I was just on the messages with a friend in Bath England

Mustangmo in reply touggycat

Spring or close usually end o April and into May, we are really cold in winter but have some days in summer at 100 F

That time has always killed me, I am good at 40 below but not heat

Hi, I have most of my books on I/Pad as I can read lol the time on night vision when fibro makes my eyes wonky. I use to love going to book sales, but now I must have over 100 and most of them free.

Thanks for He welcome, peace profound and hugs,

Yes I love my iPad too, but I'm old fashioned and love the feel of paperback (I must confess I am a folder of corners :(). I love the free books on kindle :). I like all sorts, Sci Fi, thrillers, romance. I'm reading Peter James, Beth abbott , V second generation - can't remember author and calle j brooks at moment. Can't read for long like I used too as eyes wonky too. Also like word games, Russell is good ( I do the free version), trying to keep what's left of my Fibro fog brain active :) helps me while away the hours when can't sleep even though fatigued, doesn't make sense does it!

Hope we all have a good restful sleep tonight x

I often put my kindle on to read to me when my eyes are playing up too much :)

Mustangmo in reply tocarol789

I also love the feel and smell but have a hard time holding a book, I will start our fine and start dropping. Right now I am having trouble typing as I have the Jerks and my hand jerks and hit the wrong letter.

Take care of yourself,

Peace profound and hugs.
