Progress



Still alive. Thank you for kind, helpful, and occasionally amusing comments yesterday. I hope to be back soon.

So glad you are better looking in real life. Even when ill.

Talking about still being alive. Some years ago my then father-in-law (RIP) told me that most people die at four o'clock in the morning. Where he got that piece of crap from (though apparently true) I do not know. I blame the Telegraph - a paper he took, every day.

Upshot being that that information had a huge impact on me. Which is hardly surprising since I was brought up on a rich diet of Brothers Grimm grim tales, Anderson's and other noir Northern folk tales. Where others see mist among the trees I see a man hanging from a tree (true story).

So, guess what: I wake, every night, at four - give a minute or two either side. I find myself already in position - on my back, hands folded across my chest. Being blessed with extraordinary patience I lie there and WAIT. Before getting up in order to defy the oracle.

As you can see I made it today - as indeed have you.

And do remember: The ascent may strenuous. When on the descent you need to put the brakes on.

Keep the home fire burning and let others walk Billy, bring your medecine and serve your soup. . Same for Lady M of course.

That's it. Just hit a few keys. Proves you are still with us!

Poppy Q said...

Wishing you a swift recovery from your germs.

Glad to hear you're still here.. a little more and it's behind you.

Yorkshire Pudding said...

That's a great picture of you. Compliments to Lady Magnon for snapping it. You really are a handsome beast. Losing the beard was a marvellous idea but in the photo it seems to be growing back.

Chin up
Lots of fluids

Carol Caldwell said...

Sorry to hear you are both unwell. Hoping you recover soon.

Take care of yourself,

The Weaver of Grass said...

Dear Cro (and Lady M) take care, look after yourselves and please do take a photo of yourself in those smart pyjamas when you are recovered

Coppa's girl said...

Must say, Cro, this virus has really hit you hard - you don't look like you at all!

Debby said...

I thought the same, CG. And WHY would you struggle from bed in the middle of a dreadful virus to shave off your beard??? Hmmmmm...I call BS. He's obviously not as sick as he is trying to make us believe. I think he is just trying to get out of walking Billie.

JayCee said...

I didn't realise you were so handsome!

Gemma's person said...

Oh no, I wouldn't have recognized you at the airport.
Get well soon, my friends.

Jan said...

Hoping you will soon be feeling much better.

Susan said...

If that photo says anything, it looks like the virus/Covid has temporarily knocked your socks off. In 7 days (give or take), you'll be good as new!

Rian said...

Keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers...

Joanne Noragon said...

Covid days number about 7. I guess you know where you are.

River said...

That is a very sad looking face. It will be over soon, just keep resting and drink plenty of water.

gz said...

Sad to hear that you both have been unwell..but glad that you are improving

John Going Gently said...

Hope you are getting over your illness …

Gemma's person said...
