Well...life goes on!

This week I had a full medical control - the works in fact! I had awaited it with some trepidation I must admit as it did happen not too long ago that the 'expected' 2 day check-up turned into a three week stay in the hospital. But not this time! Everything was 'A-OK'! Well as 'A-OK' as it is ever going to be... and I don't have to have another check for a year - HOORAY! I'm rewsigned now to the fact that 'what I've got, I ain't gonna get rid of'; and to the fact that I will be supporting countless drug companies output levels for years to come. Perhaps that means I am a public spirited citizen???? Then again..... (hahahaha)
My next task to attaining the title of 'Hypochondriac in Chief' is to try and sort out this arthritis vs RSI vs Carpal Tunnel syndrome problem! All I've got to do is convince my doctor to take another look.

But you know, when all is said and done - we all bitch (at times) about the life we've been dealt, but I for one am thankful every (well almost every) day when I wake up. When you can wake up to this view from your bedroom when you throw open the shutters - what's to bitch about?


The mountain out front has got it's first 'smattering' of snow above the 2000m line and while there are still one or two clouds hovering around like a necklace... we are finally beginning to feel that autumn - and very soon - winter will be with us. It's strange to think that this time last year we had already had our first snow at the height where I live (approx 1010ft)...of course it was then with us without a break until mid March. Let's hope it won't last quite so long this year.

The neighbours new house out front now has it's roof in place. The crane is down (finally) and the scaffolding all around has gone too. It is going to be a really an impressive house as you can see from this latest update.
