First Rose ....


We never know what's round the corner or what a new day will bring ... just as well perhaps!

I waited so long for a spine op and hoped it would improve walking and lessen pain - I knew there were risks but had the op some weeks ago.



I'm disappointed that it didn't work, in fact having a small amount of bone removed has disturbed the spine, I have more pain at times, and walking will not improve ...
Well, the roses in the garden haven't let me down so each day I'll wobble and hobble into the garden and enjoy  them.

Life is full of good things, I have lots to be thankful for and any day now I'll shake off the blues and get on ... watch this space!
"Laugh and the world laughs with you,
Cry and you cry alone."

I'll make sure I laugh lots!

    Conny I'm so sorry to hear that it wasn't all you'd hoped it would be. Perhaps with time you will be at least as 'good' as you were before? It must be very frustrating. Meanwhile you continue to delight us with your beautiful photos. I haven't been blog reading much lately ...too many to cope with...but your yellow and purple brought me here. I am so envious of your garden , it must be a picture. Much love.x
