didnt post last night,meant to but was so tired, bloody daft but i really have been upset by little cats death. he is now the third cat i got buried in my garden. none of which "belonged" to me. think the difference is,other 2 (neighbours cats who decided they liked the accommodation here better lol) were old cats. this little fella was only about 18 months old at most. and really daft bit,he wasn't even friendly. too scared. oh well. im ok now.
funny,i took some photos today and downloaded them,and found this one that i took last week,sitting on my garden bench. bless
Linda,my MS nurse rang me yesterday,she is so busy poor love. asked what my problem was and i explained the new tablets she had put me on were really making my life hell. my swallowing has got much worse,and throat is raw. she asked how many i was taking a day,and i told her i had only got up to 4 a day,was supposed to work gradually up until i was on 12. on 4 i want to sleep all the while,and feel so depressed and down with them. so she told me to dump them and go back to gabapentin,least side effects not so bad,and my swallowing was lot better. also said,to ring her after a week,and she would see me, and try me on another drug. ermmmm no,i think i will keep as i am. i know i got lot pain,sometimes i could cry,but i had enough of being a guinea pig in past. better the devil you know.
A came to see us yesterday. rang me and asked if she could come and inspect faulty door. turned up at 3.30. took photos,and agreed it was faulty. she is nice,i do feel sorry for her really,lol. she said,I opened my inbox,saw email from you and thought OH NO. NOT AGAIN.lol anyway,upshot of it is,i had phonecall today from her,and they are coming next wednesday to change it. fingers crossed. lol.
In case any one worried,ducks are coming every morning,turned up today at 6.30. there was muggins,outside in cold feeding 2 very greedy quacking ducks. lol. any names anyone?? especially pam. lol but when i see them,every year around this time,i know spring is on the way. and the first flower on my camellia has now opened to prove it.
must be over 50 buds,hopefully we wont get many frosts now to ruin the show. daffs are now making a show,took mum up garden in wheelchair as it was lovely day to see the flowers, cheers her up a bit to get out. she is very down,she really liked watching puddy,he was always sitting on bench near kitchen window. take her out tomorrow,she will go and see her friend in charity shop before we do the weekly shop.
just to cheer us all up. bit spring colour. many thanks for all your nice comments,and i now gone international lol randy and lucy both from USA both write very good journals,have been kind enough to add comments. please go along and visit. see their comments for details,i'm useless at adding addresses. think another 1 or 2 who left comments also from "across the pond". and this all thanks to pams editors choice. thanks pam really must post that cheque. lol take care all.

Sorry your feeling upset about puddy, such a shame poor little chap, the garden looks nice, it's great when all the flowers start to bloom. don't blame you for not wanting to start on new medication, but maybe they can give you something for the pain, so glad your mum had a turn around the garden that must really cheer her up, just to be outside. As for the bathroom door saga well fingers crossed on that one lol.
Take care

Mort, I just had to come ansd see how you are doing?? I understand why you were upset by the little cats death. Poor little thing really had no one but you to care if it lived or died and it knew you did your best. You have no idea how much you and 2 other people helped me through today, Jack and his sister Shirl. You all came through for me in the end. Your flowers are beautiful. I would do anything to have a garden like that. It is beautiful!! AH yes, those never ending pills. When my son Alan was still able to be alone I went to his apartment as soon as I got off work. I walked in and there were pills all over the floor. He had tremors terribly and he said the pill box fell. He later said he threw them. He also felt like a guinea pig. Do you take care of your mum? We moms love our kids no matter how old. How about "beauty or quacker" for one duck. I will think on it. Lucy
Mort, Thank you for the kind Comments! Hope you get to feeling better and the flowers are so beautiful I love camellia! My parents hope that we are selling right now has a beautiful bush!! It's funny how we get attached to animals!! have a great night or day! I don't know what time is there! Tell "mum" Hi!!
Randy

You really have spring in your garden, Mort.
I just stopped in to visit your flowers, again.. Hope you are having a good day. If you have a good day, she will. Lucy
Hi Mort what a lovely garden. I enjoy reading your journal and look forward to it every day. Have a nice weekend and hello to mums.
Hello my fav other man. It;s understandable you are upset at the wee cat. It's a shame. Would you not consider having a permanent one that belonged to you? Just a thought! Now on to those ducks.....lol How about Duke and Daisy lol well, Daisy Is a cow's name so that might not do! ... erm. wilma and wilbert? sonny and cher? I am picturing myself calling on the ducks and shouting out loud, but those two through In the livingroom think I have lost my marbles! lol. Those will have to do for now as I could be here all night and quite possibly get arrested! lol. Love Pam xx
Awww it's a shame about Puddy :( I'm sure another cat will come your way to brighten your day xx At least the ducks are still visiting (what about Donald for a name??) and your flowers are looking beautiful ~ thanks for sharing the pics with us xx

Hi Mort...sorry for all the comments but I'm spending time reading your entries and each one seems to elicit a thought from me.
I'm sorry about the kitty. He looks like he was so cute. I'm sure another one will come along. I know we have lots of them around. Right now I don't actually "own" any kitties...but there are two who seem to like my digs. LOL!
Your flowers are stunning. Love those pictures. I was sorry to hear of your swallowing problem. Can you crush your pills and put them in applesauce? Sometimes that makes it easier. Maybe you've tried that...?
Anyway...I'm enjoying getting to know you here. You are a sweetie.
Sending you a great big hug,
Pam
