Very wise lally,be kind to yourself for a change.I`m sure the others can look after themselves and you.

You don`t take chances with high blood pressure.

Hope you feel better soon.

Love and hugs Jayne xxxx

Hi lally,

yes sometimes it had to be me, me and oh,,,me again!!

Our health is so precious so sit back and chill out. Let them that can do...do it. Takes some doing though, I'm my own worst example, i'm trying to learn to let my wonderful new partner look after me, after years of having to do everything myself, not easy to let go, but i'm learning when i see him happy to help...for the right reasons.

High blood pressure here also..verging on toxic.

Take care
