Christmas


Hello blogland, I have been either busy ot had no motivation but here I am on Saturday morning at last writing something. Christmas Eve Tim & I Mum's and I took Jeannie's presents over and as luck would have it she was there and I was able to give it to her.

Sue was also there and I was annoyed with myself that I didn't think to take her present with me, a friend of hers was mowing the lawn for Mum.

Christmas Day I was up at 5.40am and Tim got up and left for work, Tim didn't want to exchange gifts till Boxing Day when the girls and grandchildren will be here. Jessica drove me to see Dad, I left a card my sister Sandy had been and decorated his grave with tinsel and ornaments, it looked good. She then drove me to Mum's where I gave out gifts to family members.

Moving on to Boxing Day, when I went to do the veggies for lunch I found Tim had already peeled and cut them the night before and left them sitting in a bowl of water in the fridge. I then gave Tim his gifts from me but was unable to find my gift from him. I am still unable to find it.

Tim cleaned the lounge-room and moved the dinning room table and then he cooked all the veggies. We had a baked lunch with BBQ chicken all our girls and grandchildren except for Blain who was at his Dad's.

Everyone seemed to liked their gifts.

Functional neurological disorder (FND) is a condition in which patients experience neurological symptoms such as weakness, movement disorders, sensory symptoms and blackouts. The brain of a patient with functional neurological symptom disorder is structurally normal, but functions incorrectly.

Physical symptoms of neurological problems may include the following:

  • Muscle weakness.
  • Partial or complete loss of sensation.
  • Seizures.
  • Difficulty reading and writing.
  • Poor cognitive abilities.
  • Unexplained pain.
