I am currently recovering from a major operation, not life threatening but when you have had good health for most of your life, it comes as a hindrance, and at long last starting to feel back in the land of the living and feeling good. It is most distressing and frustrating to find yourself in a position where for a time, you are totally reliant on others to get you through the early days of being incapacitated.
Without the help of my caring and understanding husband, who has been on the other end of my frustrations, and dear friends who have offered assistance and encouragement, my recovery would have been so much longer. A gently reminder of the saying "wake up and smell the roses" comes to mind and to be thankful for every day we do indeed wake up to enjoy another day on this earth.
So with hope and determination this short time of feeling useless and out of sorts, I will spring back with a vengeance and get back into my routine of walking, gardening and all the other little things I have missed. Now Spring is here with all the blossoms and new growth and Summer on it's way, makes for a time of joy and pleasure to look forward to.
So, on a more happy note, here is an extract from the Hums of Pooh (you can put your own little tune to this)
🎵🎵🎵🎵
Oh, how the butterflies are flying
Now the winter days are dying
And the primroses are trying
To be seen
Oh, the honey-bees are gumming
On their little wings and humming
That the summer, which is coming,
Will be fun.
For the Spring is really springing,
You can see the skylark singing,
And the buebells which are ringing,
Can be heard.............
Have a happy day and make the most of everyone of them
