Hello, world
by annbradley @ 21.03.2008 - 22:19:29

I feel I have to make a proper post instead of simply leaving jokes. It's just rather an effort at the moment, largely because I'm not doing anything interesting.
It is as if I am in one of life's anterooms because I have not yet seized the challenge of moving on. I am waiting for 'something'.
With mum gone I have no good reason to retire: there is nobody to 'look after'. Just as well, really, since the poor dregs of my pension, what remained after the government picked its bones, have probably gone up in flames in the last week or so. Now I have to hope to stay healthy - as healthy as I am currently anyway - so I can keep myself.
I was going to call in at the Cathedral today but could not get in. The Good Friday service would have been underway and there was a goon inside the door stopping a group of people from entering. Tourists, I assume. Shame about us worshippers.
Today I bought a penguin, one of those steam spot-removing things. It doesn't work. I couldn't persuade a single puff of steam out of it even though I went through the procedure twice from scratch. So I'll take it back tomorrow and hope to recover my 19.99.
And the fish and chip shop was closed.

Gripping, isn't it?

Tough life isn't it...we're so much more fortunate than millions of other people, but to each of us our own troubles are sizable at times...never heard of not being able to get into a Cathedral service on Good Friday!! I've got a steamer too...I bought it intending to use it regularly and did about four times then put it away and never used it again...LOL...best to save the money and use a can of foam spot remover...much cheaper and probably works a whole lot quicker too...great big hugs...XXX

Belated thanks for commenting.
That's true - and I don't even have any actual troubles!
I did get the money back so not all bad!

Don't feel that you have to blog if you don't want to, do it because you want to! As for the subject matter write about what you want to, not what you think others may find of interest.
It'll take time to readjust now your mum has gone. You may well find a change in the direction and pace of life later on. Above all look after yourself, stay healthy and whatever you do enjoy it.
As for the fish and chip shop being closed what is the world coming to!
Take care. xx

Life can be boring and just tick by ... but is that is a bad thing?
The Cathedral was wrong to prevent you from worshipping; tourist issues are getting in the way of what the place is for ... shame. Our local cathedral is quite good but I hate people passing through when I am trying to pray! The services are a bit of an in-crowd thing ... not very welcoming but sometimes the anonimity (bad spelling, sorry) is just what I need.
Hope you got some dinner in the end.
Much love,
Sianx

Yep, no news is probably good news.
I have never run into that before at the Cathedral so assume it was packed. I enjoy my occasional visit so was a bit upset at the time.
Well, I'm unlikely to starve as I have some fat reserves about my person and, although I cannot remember for sure, I suspect I picked up a fish pie at Sainsbury's. Missed the anticipated chips though.
Thanks for answering - I need to attend to my profile settings because I have stopped getting alerts when I have comments and messages.
