The Spanish Govt is pretty fearful about the Christmas period when traditionally families meet up in large numbers on Christmas Eve for the big family dinners. They have recently changed that to 6 max per family. It is going to be a quiet Christmas for sure. In all this I personally just thank my blessings that my family is safe and well; both my English family and the Spanish one too. Christmas is celebrated every year and if it has to be a quiet one this year well so be it!

It was broken in two places and they decided to put in a titanium rod with screws,<br /><br />It has given me quite a few problems over nearly a year, not the least being that when they hammered (yes, hammered) the rod in, it apparently disturbed an old cancer cell from the breast cancer I had many years ago. So then I had to have a course of radio therapy which threw up its own problems. That was over in November, though I haven't had any feed back on whether it has killed off all the cancer cells yet.<br /><br />The screws in the arm are a big problem as they go into the joint in my shoulder and I have limited movement now and can't lift the arm above waist height. It is all very depressing so, yes, like you, I am probably stressed.<br /><br />I have some meditation mudic and sometimes that helps but, as you know, there is nothing worse than being very tired, with sore eyes, and not being able to sleep.<br /><br />I am not often on Blogger these days, so have not really got to grips with the new interface. It is annoying, as I used to teach computing and the Internet, but everything has moved on apace since I retired...<br /><br />Covid has not helped any of us, either, as we have nowhere to go and no reason to get out of bed really. France is at a standstill regarding restaurants, cafes and bars and there were no brocantes this year☹️<br /><br />With Brexit looming, there is no chance of a visit from English friends either and we have not had the chance to make friends in this new area yet.<br /><br />Golly, I do sound miserable!, It is not as bad as all that, and Roy has just made me a salmon and salad sandwich and a lovely cup of tea, so I have lots to be thankful for 😁French Nannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00750253554082096392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5576298406112195977.post-74219653913768832462020-12-19T13:47:31.345+01:002020-12-19T13:47:31.345+01:00Sorry to hear you aren't feeling well!!

I was holding down 3 jobs at the time so...well....I was stressed!! Now I am retired I am sleeping better. That isnt much help to you though...sorry.:-) Sounds to me as if you have been in the wars quite a bit lately. I commented on your last post and queried how you had hurt your arm. I don't think you received that comment as I can't see it here on that post. Perhaps my comment went into your spam folder. I am using a new email address. This has happened to other bloggers who have been away for awhile or it could be New Blogger interface up to its tricks again. Cute angel...I continue to crochet...totally addicted :-) take care and stay safe Amanda xCrafty in the Medhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15365932964481050936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5576298406112195977.post-60611259693344653062020-12-19T12:55:50.099+01:002020-12-19T12:55:50.099+01:00So sorry you are not feeling too good.

I have the same problem with sleeping, but I find that a Camomile tea bag in hot water is quite soothing.Elizabethdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02405703727112759947noreply@blogger.com
