Reasons to be cheerful ...
- Seeing photos of Ced I've never seen before, remembering happy times together.
- Cakes at choir. Again!
- Rediscovering the floor in the dining room. The decluttering is continuing and I can see that I'm making progress.
- Kind critiques of my photos by other members of the U3A Photography Group
I am grateful for ...
- being in a position to enjoy my retirement. I know this is not the case for everyone as a number of my friends have had to continue working past their retirement date.
- friends who make me laugh
- the NHS approving renewal of repeat prescriptions online with delivery to my door via the postal system. It makes it so much easier!
