Fabulous Friday

I would like to introduce this blogs new concept for Fridays.  Each week I will choose something or someone that I am finding to be particularly fabulous that week to share with you.

We are kicking off Fabulous Friday this week with one of The - very special - Friends who has been poorly.  For some reason his right lung seems to have gotten into the habit of collapsing.  It's happened twice now and no-one can seem to work out why.  When it happens, it puts The Friend in a great deal of pain and is scary for him and all who know and love him, particularly his husband.  Inevitably, after a week in hopsital to let the lung be drained and to reinflate, the whole experience leaves him feeling low and flat.

I have tried, along with my dear friend, his husband, to tell my tempremental-lung-friend, not to do it again.  He claims to have no control over the occurance and so I have decided, on this occasion, to give him the benefit of the doubt and instead, tell him just how fabulous I think  he is.

And so, to my Fabulous Friend (you know who you are), I love you very much and I hope that very soon you will be feeling as reinflated as the lung now appears to be.  Oh, and please don't do it again!!

Misfit

Do you ever get the feeling that you don't really know where you fit in?  I've had that feeling on and off throughout my life.  Sometimes it's been an uncomfortable feeling - during the teenage years at school for example when it didn't always feel easy to slot into a particular group.  Or at various workplaces when my face just didn't seem to fit-in with the 'in-crowd'.  At other times I relish the feeling of being a bit different from what may be expected even if this does mean that people don't always seem to know what to do with me, where to place me, not quite being able to work out who I am.  I also love that I am now in a happy and confident place surrounded by a whole bunch of random lovelies, all misfits in their own special way. I therefore found it to be quite unexpected to be feeling as if I needed to fit-in in a new situation quite recently.   This new misfit feeling began when I started blogging.  I didn't set out ...

'...the notes from the piano...'

... is the prompt for this weeks 100 Word Challenge For Grown Ups - week#73 .   Here is my entry:- He was expecting her.   A gentle push at the already slightly ajar door allowed her to enter in to the hallway silently.    The bitter-sweet aroma of freshly brewed coffee enveloped   her   senses, inviting her further in to the sprawling apartment.    It was as if he knew her already.   Knew how she would respond.   She stepped carefully out of her shoes and slipped off her heavy winter coat before tip-toe-ing along the parquet floor of the corridor that lay before her.   As yet, unwilling to announce her arrival. All the while, the notes from the piano rose in to the air and danced around her head.   ________________________________________________________   It's been a while since i took part in the 100WC.  I've missed it.  I like the challenge of having to stick to a strict word count wi...

Snippets of everyday conversation #17

Bank Holiday Monday... The Husband: "Ok, so now we've sold the (huge, reclaimed oak, gorgeous, heavy, cumbersome) dining table we could sort out the (chipped, scuffed, scruffy) painted floor before we put another table in there.  We could make a start tomorrow.  I'd like to hire a sander though so we can get a better finish." The Father-in-law (visiting for the day):  "You could sand it right back to the wood and varnish it". The Husband:  "Yeah, it would look nice.  We'd need to do the hall and living room though 'cos it all runs into one with having no carpets in any of the downstairs rooms". Me:  " There's no way I can face all that dust, it would be a nightmare.  The only way that is going to happen is if you send me and the boys on a weeks holiday". The Husband: "Hmmm."  Later that very same day... Me:  I've had a rethink.  In fact, I've had a complete change of heart and think we should sa...
