And then yesterday my tablet was even playing up worse than usual so I couldn’t do my Qigong class. My son talked me through clearing my data. Much better now!

My computer is playing up. I am waiting to hear back from my son who knows about these things.

They were saying on BBC Breakfast this morning that kids aren’t competitive these days. If that is the case then it is a good thing. I wasn’t brought up to beat everyone else. I was brought up to do my best. That is a completely different thing!

I rang the doctors this morning. It had just turned to 8.00am but I was still 11 in the call queue. It took ages for me to get through to someone but I then learnt that my GP is on annual leave. I will have to wait until she returns or speak to someone else. I will wait.

I usually miss half of Andrew Marr on a Sunday morning because I have things to do so I watch the repeat at 7.00pm on BBC Parliament. I was so disappointed that it wasn’t shown last night!

It is good to see Andrew Marr and Politics Live back this week. We can get a better idea of what people are thinking along political lines. Although I do watch the News channels anyway.

The weather is warming up again so I am back in short sleeves – and, of course, the heating is back off. I don’t know how long this warm spell will last.

I do my online Qigong each morning. It sets me up for the day!

I gave in and put the heating on last night. I thought I would turn the thermostat back down this morning but so far I have kept it on. It is only just September so it is very early.

I need a lot of help from others these days as there’s not a lot I can do. I now have quite a number of wonderful friends.
