The aliens have landed.....

or maybe it's just Lottie? Cross between a bat and Father Christmas I think.

Had some sad news on Friday. A member of my family has passed away. We knew it was on the cards, she was diagnosed last year as having a terminal form of cancer but it was still a shock as she died on Wednesday but we didn't find out until 2 days later - I don't know why but that felt kinda weird and I was discombobulated by it. Am ok now, sad, but ok. There are so few of my Dad's side of the family left now, I think it is that more than anything that is frying my noodle. The lady who passed though is one of those staples of childhood into adult life, that they are always there in the background. I feel for her family, she was a good Mum and a great Grandma and they are very close. So sad.

My knee cleared for a couple of days but I must of wrenched it again cos this morning it is all swollen again. I also have a sty - happy? No, not really. Getting by would be a better way to describe it.

Am off to to slather my knee is pain relief gel as I couldn't take all the good advice from myself and others, and have just done 20 mins of yoga and I now have a cold, dead feeling patch at the outer top of my right thigh - interesting.
