FRIDAY's FAVE FIVE

It becomes real difficult to discribe my week, This was the second week in the new year and I was still under antibiotics and felt tired and without energy. I would say fortunately we had a lousy weather rain each day so anyway not very attractive to go out. 

Fortunately I had to write  for my Blog, answer comments,  and still working on my photos. 

But one day, I pushed my computer aside, went in Rick's room and emptied the two big travel bags which were still standing in a corner because I hadn't the courage to empty them. There were 3 in total so one is left. 

To my surprise it went rather quick, One bag to give away for charity, one bag to be kept and the rest were decorations and photos which I put in a drawer. New T-shirts I kept for myself as pajamas, I was very satisfied with myself, that after 7 months I had found the courage and emptied at least two bags. The rest I will do another day.

I also followed on the Belgian Television what was said about the poor rich boy Harry and his horrible family !  He probably thought that now everybody will pity and understand him, but I got the impression it was the opposite, even that they made fun of him. Best thing to do for the FIRM is to continue their motto "Never explain, never complain" in this case at least. One thing is for sure I would never buy this book, I prefer to spend the money for something more important.

I had ordered a cane with a seat, not for walking but for sitting. When I travel and the guide gives long explanations I sometimes need to sit down to get my breathing back. It's very practical I can carry it over my shoulder and unfold it when I need it. It was the first time I put my nose outside to pick up the cane, I intended to do some shopping too, but I was too exhausted. The antibiotics make you weak. 

Once a year I have to ask to verify my gas heating and finally after having called three times they came this week. The yearly check up I have to pay but reparations are for the landlord.

For the moment there are the Inspector Barnaby's series on TV, I mean the new one, the nephew and everybody speaks perfectly French. Rick loved these series too and counted the murders and then he calculated the average per film. He arrived at 4 murders. So I also counted but this time there were only three. Probably tomorrow there will be more to keep the average. It's amazing that there are still people alive in the little Midsummer villages. The first Inspector told once in an interview that he had solved 200 murders. 

Nearly every day I am very spoiled by cat Rosie. This time I found my slippers "stuffed". 

On other days she puts her mouse or mice in her food bowl especially when she is not happy with her menu.
