Goodbye January.

 January has been a mixed month for me. My best friend died and I miss her so much. I will always remember Pat for all the laughter and fun we had together,and all our problems we shared. Happy days. My grandson and his partner have booked their wedding date, for 6th July next year. It is the same date as I first got married, the date his Mum and Dad got married and is the birthday of her sister. ! I now have a goal to aim at to lose some weight, plus I have a special birthday that year!   Last month the Rural Coffee Caravan came to the village on Meet up Mondays  and I thought I would try it. I was pleasently surprised at how many people were there, it was held in the Victory Hall, ( this hall was built after the first world war for the villagers instead of a war memorial). Lovely to see mums and children mixing with us oldies, must have been 60 or more enjoying free coffee/tea and cake. It really started my week off well. Lots of leaflets and advice was on offer if you needed it. Thank you to all the helpers, I shall try and go every month. Tuesday is the day my daughter has everyone at hers for a family meal so we can catch up on news and enjoy time together. This week it is roast pork so think of me as I am so lucky to have family near by.She also has cats (3)  so I must remember to take Dreamies with me. Poppy will have hers before I go. Sun is shining so I must get to the shops whilst Poppy will probably have a nap. Hugs to you all x
