I still cannot start writing much here. Tomorrow we have a family gathering to remember my mother and after that I have to check my suitcase for my vacations.
Many things are happening at the same time and some mean living in a mess and spending more money than what I have now. A problem in the hot water pipes was discovered and it had to be fixed. The technicians had to bring a big machine to see where it was. There were two posibilities: either destroy all my downsairs bathroom or to seal thge pipes and make new ones running outside. I accepted the second idea as it was much cheaper.
Today I had to go to see the dermatologist to check on a scar left after a procedure on my leg. Fortunatly if was nothing serious, but I have a list of creams and meds to buy before my trip.
I suppose that I will have to wait until mid September to start mylotting in earnest. I am elated to see my old friends again.
Hi, dear everybody!!!

I hgave grown accostumed with health issues as I have a lymphoma now on remision since 2011. But I have learned to be happy for what I have. And material things are not that important when we are faced with real problems. I´m looking forwart to my vacations now and happy that I paid for them before the pipes broke.

@marguicha You are so right about that Marguicha. Health is more important than material things. Have fun on holidays then.

Hi, my friend. I understand what you are saying about too many things happening at one time. We are trying to get ready to move, and hubby had a small surgery as well. It will be October before I am back in full swing. Enjoy your vacation.

@GardenGerty After a certain age, it is difficult to keep on being as healthy as possible and to keep our house the best we can. I hope everything goes well with you.

Hola @marguicha ! Sometimes life is just so overwhelming - so many bumps that happen and not always expected. I hope you will have a most relaxing vacation - you will be refreshed and energized to get going again in September! Love, SmilePie

Plumbing can cost a lot of money to repair. I hope the rest of your day goes good.
