Don't you think that sunny weather makes such a change - humans probably need at least 12 hours of sunshine to be healthy and the enforced hibernation makes everyone tired and lethargic. Yesterday we cleared up 99% of our fallen leaves, washed down the patio and had a good clean up outside. It might not be warm but looking out the window everything is neat and tidy and it really could be a sunny March day.

As an aside, what constantly amazes me is when we get to January, almost everyone feels a tad down and one of those latter days (Mid to end January as people survive until pay day) represents the saddest day of the year for most people. IS IT ANY SURPRISE!

Here we are at the last day of November with Advent this year tomorrow. However, since 1 November we have been subjected to a daily barrage of Christmas adverts, messages from Coca Cola, dragons, a reindeer dog and watching thousands of people have a Christmas lunch that many of us can only dream of, not to mention black Friday.......and there are still 25 days to do.........................for a day that will pass like all others and will still last just 24 hours. The children are (note not kids! - I hate the use of the word "kids" - they are our children, for goodness sake) tired, feeling almost let down that their day only lasts such a short time. Mums and Dads have broken the bank to make everyone's day a super day and although everyone has had a great day, it lasts just 24 hours.

How many of us will go to church sometime - Goodness, when I see an angel in a bath for the Christmas tree topping at Asda, it makes me wonder if Christ has been superseded by the Β£. More importantly, how many children will have been brought up with the significance of children or will our modern parents blame the lack education at school for this hole in their education?

I love these sunny crisp days and detest the long dark spells before we get tot the half way mark and the days begin to get longer. But we have to put up with the good and the bad to get there. I just wish Christmas was not so industrial these days and we remember the real meaning of it and that it generated the wholesome family Christmas it was meant to be. These sacks - yes sacks of toys and electronic equipment heaped by the Christmas tree (up since November in some cases) just make no sense and carry no sentiment of the bigger picture and who forgot the batteries!

Roll on March - Merry Christmas everyone - I really love Christmas - if it snows and the robin sits on the yule log........"Where did you put the Yule log last year darling?"

Im just counting the days to the dreaded hospital appointment when I'll be told what is killing my once perfect lungs

Yes I should practice what I preach shoudnt I lol -If Im going to suggest positivity to our dear friends then I should also take my own advice lol.Im only a bit narked because my lungs have been more or less perfect all of my life

β€’ in reply toSara_2611

Have they given you any kind of clue what it could be hon??

Sara_2611β€’ in reply to

No . When i went for a breathing test they just confirmed there is a restriction on my lungs

One thing that is a comfort is the nurse said theres no evidence of cancer

The only things i can think of is a lump of fat seeping into my lungs because i used to put a slendertone belt on around me to try to remove fat & tighten abdominal muscle but doing it lying down so must have been putting it on too high & its been pushing down on my lungs & pushing any fat thats on my bones making it seep into my lungs. Either that late adult asthma COPD. - Im clutching at straws here but i ll soon know on. 10th Thats not something i want to be doing 2 weeks before christmas
