Sunday… Remembrance
Nov 8th 2009PeterGetting My Life Back!
It is a typical cold November day, and just back from the moving service at our local church. This is a service that is usually very well attended (probably more than any other) and today was no exception, with an Honour Guard for a local girl killed in Basra 2 years ago.
The last two weeks have been busy, with lots of meetings and travelling, and the odd hospital visit where minor treatment for the effects of GvHd have continued. My next ECP is scheduled for December, but my next haematology check up isn’t until the New Year! The meetings for work have gone well, and I have been doing one or two other bits and pieces, including the installation of a home/small office network, which has been interesting and challenging!
The first open fires of the season have been lit, and Winter Pimms is calling. However we seem to have missed out on bonfire night – all though the sky was illuminated from local displays, so the obligatory “Ooohs” and “Ahhhs” were made!
The recent heavy rain has brought most of the leaves off the trees, although they are still too wet to sweep up – maybe we will get some dry weather soon! However the wet weather did highlight the fact that the tyres on my car were pretty much worn out, so a quick trip to the garage, followed by a considerable lightening of the wallet soon fixed that!
So all in all, I am continuing Onwards and Upwards, but following on from the opening paragraph, for those that aren’t… “We will remember them”
