Oh, Francesca, your ability to write in spite of everything is inspiring. Sorry you’ve been having such a grotty time health wise. Last night sounds grim.

Thanks, Wendy. It was pretty grotty to say the least. But it’s like that Bear Hunt book, you can’t go under it, you can’t go over it. Oh no! You’ve got to go through it! But I feel a little better tonight. It will be an early one. And no dinner for me.

Francesca!! So sorry you had such a horrible time of it and that near miss with the medication is extra scary! Take it easy, watch the flowers and the listen to the birds let the lull you through this mala racha. Feel better soon💖

Thanks, Darienne. I’m just watching the birds and waiting for the mama duck to take her babies for their morning walk 🙏❤️ And I’m still quite sore in my ribcage.

Cesca, that sounds so gruesome. You are one tough cookie to go through all of that I'm hoping and praying that you find relief and soon.

You had my complete attention at the words Monica Bellucci but I also like the poem!

I have a friend who thinks he may have been slightly obsessed with her, and watched everything she was ever in, for the last thirty years. But that's my friend; I couldn't possibly say.

Aww, that’s so nice of you to say. I try to see the funny side afterwards… I wasn’t very sparkly at 2 in the morning 🤪
