Well first 24 hours done. Just sick first thing but tablets have worked the rest of the day. Eating little and often seems to be the best plan.

So grateful for so many things, wonderful friends and family, fantastic work, great church family, for the internet enabling me to view the world from my lovely sofa bed. But most of all the peace that passes all understanding.

We are making a list of things to do when I am better next year. All ideas greatly accepted. The list is growing. I am also making a thankfulness list as I did last year. This comes to bed with me and reminds me of all that I am grateful for/ looking forward to. It is usually decorated in butterflies.

I had a slow morning followed by coffee and cake with a lovely friend this afternoon. Joy in each day.

I am really looking forward to the weekend - birthday party for Chloe and Joy here. I am sitting back and all is to be done. Kitty coming and we will all watch the football together. Lovely.

Then Sunday we have friends coming for lunch with their children. We are looking forward to catching up with them.

And sunshine what more could we ask for.
