Gaga!
OK I am now officially gaga. Yesterdays post about my missing case is an epic indication of this mental confusion. I didnt forget my case. It never left home. It was still sitting where I left it several days ago . So I have now to admit that my mental state is dodgy...
This for a woman of my age is very hard to own up to.... I have shared this with one of my friends and soon I will talk to the doctor about it....probably.... but the bottom line here is that my safety is based on my living here alone. And thats fine. I have done it for months so just carrying on is the best thing I can do. At my age I think no one should be surprised that I get things wrong....Sometimes.... I think I can continue to blog most days but dont panic if I dont. This way of communicating with the rest of the world is easy..something I can do alone. So thats OK....but dont worry if I dont always produce one. My life here at Tregear Vean is not a bad one...I use the phone more than I ever have ...and I keep some emergency food in the house...just in case. In case of what is not yet known to me or anyone else. The national lockdown is just awful but it really doesnt affect me....much , which after what happened last week is just as well. OK I can still do this......though...

Good morning Jean. I look forward to your blogs each day and hope you can continue with them.
Glad you have local friends who care about you.
How was the hotel stay?
Take care
As I often tell my husband: When you're twenty-five and forget something, you just think "Stupid me."
When you're [insert number of choice] you think "OMG, is this the First Signs?" and it probably isn't.
I then remind him he's been doing daft things for at least as long as I've known him... sometimes even repeats!
I think it was our second date when he left a rucksack with his laptop in at a London café. Lucky to (a) get it back and (b) not start a bomb scare (!)
Stay safe, we'd miss you x
You think too much Jean Things happen at any age. I remember your first husband jumping off a boat without taking a rope with him to secure you! Left you floating midstream we all laughed ourselves silly and never let him forget it.
I know it’s difficult keeping a sense of humour when you live alone.
BUT “Always look on the bright side of life”��
Lady Ga Ga is young, bright and sings very well.
In no way are you officially ga, ga. You are just forgetful, which comes with age and I who are younger than you suffer from the same aptitude. I can remember turning up to a Standing Committee meeting and hour late as I forgot it had been brought forward. I caught the last 10 minutes and could wryly observe as we departed, "That was the shortest SC meeting I have ever attended".
And this was when I was still in my sixties.
Gosh Babs I had forgotten that. Didn’t we have fun back in the day!
