So good to see you Gordi!!!
How is that lovely wife and handsome boys of yours? Whatcha been up to lately?
Chrissie's doing great, and the boys are too.
Callum is as tall as me now! (6'3").
He's about to start his final year at High School (after the summer break), and has recently started applying for part-time and/or summer jobs. He
already volunteers in a charity shop on Saturdays. He's also been short-listed for the role of "House-Captain" in School. He thinks his recent exams
went very well, but we wont get the actual results for a few weeks yet.
Both he and Dougie are still keen on their Rugby playing too which is good too.
Dougie's going into his 2nd year at High School. Doing very well. He's taken up playing Bass Guitar now! (Why can't he stick with a proper
instrument??? LOL) So, I've got him a nice wee Bass guitar and amp setup for his room and he also goes "jamming" with his pals at a youth centre on
Tues evenings after School. He's been away at an overnight Rugby Camp recently (which he loved) and he's booked in for a week long pro-Rugby Camp in
July which will be great for him.
Chrissie's still busy with Forest School work and has recently been "promoted" to work with the training and co-ordination of new Trainers/Leaders.
She'll still do Forest Schools as well, but it's a nice recognition of her skills that they want her to look after the staff team as well.
I'm not doing so great. My health is still up & down. No one seems to be able to get to the bottom of it.
I've had a whole raft of things wrong with me (on top of "the usual" stuff!!) since about March.
Quick summary:
Covid19, Dizzy, Light-Headed/Disoriented/Detached feelings, Depressed, Loss of Balance, Eye Infection, Gum Infection, Torn Shoulder muscle (from
lifting my phone?!?), which developed into a nasty Frozen Shoulder condition, Blood tests showed secondary Viral Infection after Covid had gone, Brain
Fog, Memory issues...
It just feels like a never-ending cycle of problems and I hate to go on about it (as I know everyone else has their own problems to deal with) so I
tend not to post when I'm feeling like this.
My Covid has now gone, as has the eye infection and the worst of the gum infection. The Light-headed/dizzy thing is still there but comes and goes
(it's weird). My shoulder muscle has healed, but the Frozen Shoulder thing is VERY painful and is taking months to ease off, although it is now much
better than before. I'm presuming that the secondary viral infection has gone too, as I'm not feeling anywhere near as yeuuch and it had originally
co-incided with the eye and gum issues.
Happy Days! LOL
Anyway, How is everyone else doing?
Has Marks recent situation improved at all?
... and Hows WIS?
