Well today's a great day. We have just put a deposit on our new home. We have been waiting four weeks to see if our bid would be accepted and finally it has. So it's all systems go!!!! Our house is sale agreed also so all going well we should be moving in about six weeks or so. Prayers are very welcome please

We arrived home safely from Portugal and had a great holiday. Amazing how relaxing the heat of the sun on your skin can be especially on my back. We dont get the heat here much in Ireland, not like you would in the States, so holidaying certainly does give you a feel good factor when you go abroad. So refreshing.

I hope to meet with my Consultant soon for a review. Just a chat really. Don't have any concerns thankfully. My stim is doing its bit and I'm very pleased with its progress. I'm still taking some meds but have definitely cut down on them. I also use my patches most days. I'm hoping my back will hold up to our move. I will have to curtail how much decluttering and packing that I can/should/will do!!!!. It's hard to sit still but I'm getting so excited now.

When the purchaser saw our house she loved it but when they offered to buy it she wanted ALL my plants in the back garden, even my hanging baskets lol!!!! I was so proud. I've come a long way from literally lying in my garden not being able to do anything to having my garden complimented in such a lovely way. Life can be so hard and yet it can reward us in so many ways too

Take care my good friends.
