Thanks chaps  I fear that pampering will not be on the menu, but I can certiainly retire to the sofa with book. A close second! Kitty - Wasps! Shriek!! Can`t stand `em. The last one that stung me crawled inside my tee-shirt to do so. You`ve never seen anyone rip their top off as fast as I did. Just as well I was at home and not gallivanting in a public place! Blushblush. I will now regard oven gloves with deep suspicion.... |

Wasps - v. nasty. They regularly nest in my roof. They are worst when they are sleepy and crawling, not flying - that's when you put your hand or foot on them. Beware shoes as well as gloves!
I hope you aren't a pianist, Mort, given your luck. Get better soon.

Poor old Mort! Let's hope the swelling stops spreading before you look like a likely partner for the Michelin Man....

Poor Mort indeed. You've really been in the wars this year haven't you? What with a bereavement and all the problems that sorting everything out carries with it, broken toes, swollen hands...work problems. Let's hope that the rest of the year starts looking up for you. Lots of love and good vibes sent to you from Millyland.  xxx |

I'm sure we'll all soon get tyred of these Michelin puns!
(Get well soon Mort - I've always thought wasps were evil, at least bees know if they sting you, they die but wasps clearly do it just for fun!)

I thought this thread should be brought higher.
We are not all happy , we are all living such sad lives and we soldier on so well against such adversity.
I just wanted to say that.
We are not ALL happy .

No indeed, A. If life is supposed to be a bowl of fruit, then why does it have to be one with a bluddy stone in the middle that can crack your teeth, if it doesn`t choke you first! I propose that life can also be a bowl of prickly pears. Or maybe I`m just having a prickly pear day! |

A friend gave me a book for Christmas and I am reading it every day.
Here is a quote from this book:
The trouble is not that we are never happy - it is that happiness is so episodical. - Ruth Benedict.
Further it says: Happiness is our birthright. The decision to be hapy is ours to make, every day, when confronted with any experience. Too many of us grew up believing that life needed to be a certain way for us to be happy. We looked for the right lover, the right job, the right dress.
Happiness lies within, We must encourage it to spring forth. But first we need to believe that happiness is fully within our power.
One can be sceptical of these books, but some times there is some grain of thruth there.

The only problem there t-p is that not all moods come from within, it is the outside situations that can make us sad... death of a loved one, angst in a group of friends, your house burning down, your belongings being stolen, being told how awful you are, running someone over, being rejected in love, being hit by a flying dish of pasta..... It is hard to stay happy whilst even one of these events is happening.
