Grey matters: Bonjour

Bonjour

I think (and so does martin) that a bath before a little snooze does wonders. It does!! I woke up after about a 4 hour kip and felt great. I must admit, I feel a bit less dizzy and therefore get rid of the last thing that’s wrong with me. All I’ve said for the last few weeks is that I feel fine, just a bit giddy. I wonder if it will go?

So today;
Cup of tea
Muffins!
Write this blog
Nice hot bath
Sleep for a few hours
Martin. Deirdre and I have lunch
Martin and I go out for some fresh air (hot chocolate!!)
Back to bed before dinner
Back to bed
MORNING AGAIN

I don’t mind the sleeping bit because I know it’s s helping me get better.

Speak soon

Love

Ali

great news that you feel less dizzy - all that think shrinking is working - yay! Oh and maybe the buzzy machine had something to do with it too :)

would love to meet up with you and Jeanette - may be in the summer when things are less hectic

lots of love

As your dad said a while ago, maybe you have been at the point of 'low tide' but eventually the tide turns and hopefully you will now feel better with every new day.
Looking forward to seeing you VERY soon and our trip back to the UK together. Thinking shrink all the time, lots of love from us all at Lower Farm.; 18 March 2008 at 11:15

Back from the Midlands, did an Outdoor show, quite interesting, better than my next one, its in Bournemouth and called "The Care Show" for people in homes. Let me know if you want me to pick you up any super strength pants or a decent zimmer.

Glad your feeling beter, super news, was a bit dizzy yesterday myself but think it may have been due to the 12 pints strongbow I had sunday at Rugby. . . Saw Bath lose to the Quinns .. still struggling now. Keep the spirits up old boy and speak soon.

I see your Arse is struggling now - too many draws.

Great to read your news although you didn't mention how Meribel was! All the shrinking thinking is working I see - less dizzy is great news.

Sarah and Daniel have just returned from a week's skiing in Flaine and had a great time. Quite a lot of powder to ski.Can't wait for our trip to Val D'Isere in April, we have missed out on skiing this year because we went to Thailand for three weeks late last year and you know the story - not much annual leave left so had to be content with one week.

Anyway Ali keep up the good work.
All our love as always
The Conways, Chris, David, Stewart, Jo, Freya, Sarah and Daniel xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; 18 March 2008 at 14:55

That is fabby news you are feeling less dizzy. I reakon it's the thinking shrinking that is having an effect. :-)

I was in Annecy at the weekend with Piers, Dougie and Paul and saw where your flat was - looks like a great location. Infact we stayed in the Ibis so we were just opposite it. We will have to hook up at some point when you are feeling better.

Sounds like your body is making you do all the right things to get better...lots of sleeping and decent grub.

I will be thinking shrinking all week.

Hugs

Sorry we didn't see you and Jeanette last week, but fully understand that you were concentrating on getting less dizzy - great news.
Thanks for arranging the lesson from Tom, he was great, and no doubt has fed back to you how much improved I am as a skier, although I still put the wings out occasionally!!
Keep on improving, and don't drink too much hot chocolate.

je viens un peu aux nouvelles.
je suis ravie d entendre que tu vas un peu mieux, meme si j imagine que tu aimerais que ca aille encore plus vite.
mais tu as raison, il faut continuer a etre patient et a te reposer.
et surtout continuer a garder le moral et etre positif pour vaincre une bonne fois pour toute ce vilain bobo.tu comprends tout???
si ce n est pas le cas, j espere qu on se verra vite et je t expliquerais en details tout ce 'charabia' francais.
j espere que Jeanette aussi ca va, car je ne l oublie pas non plus.
que penses tu de venir passer un week end ou plus a correncon, ou j habite avec Martin au mois de mai ou fin avril??
ce te changerai un peu, l air est tout aussi agreable qu a Annecy et la vue et les ballades differentes.
et la boulangerie est la meilleure du canton...
j en ai l eau a la bouche rien que d y penser.
on met aussi des golfettes a la dispositions des gens, on pourrai faire une grande ballade sur le golf.
j espere que ca te donne envie de venir nous visiter, avec Jeanette bien entendu.
et ma grand mere fait le meilleur gratin dauphinois. jamais tu n en a mange de si bon...
bon!!! vous venez quand???
et si vous etes là le 30 aout, je te rapelle qu on se marie avec martin, on vous attends aussi.
a propos de moi, je t avous que je suis assez impatiente que la fin de saison approche.
ma cheville me fait un peu plus souffrir et c est pas facile tous les jours.
heureusement que Zoe m a bien arrangé cette saison au niveau des cours.
je ne sais pas encore quand on va me retirer tout le materiel...
il ne reste plus que 3 grosses semaines et apres un peu de repos sera le bienvenu.
je n ai pas encore de projets pour l été.
on va peut etre a New York pour une semaine, voyage shopping et culture, avec pliens de musees a decouvrir.
et surement quelques week end par ci par la a travers le vercors sud, l ardeche et quelques jours a paris aussi.
en tout cas Martin insiste aussi pour que vous veniez nous voir au printemps, je suis sure que le vercors plaira aussi beaucoup a Jeanette.
l'invitation est lancee, c est a toi de voir.
je viens de m appercevoir de la longueur du message, je vais te laisser autrement je vais utiliser toute la place et il ne restera rien pour les autres.
je vous fais de tres grosses bises, garde le moral, et sache que tu nous manque a tous.
a tres vite.
