David..........Again!!!!

 David has been working nights for the past few months, midnight to 9am.  It's good money and not hard work. He is working at an Internet Cafe, so serving food and drinks, signing people in and out and cleaning after each customer.  David says there is just enough work not to get bored but not too much that one feels overwhelmed.  Friday night I said goodnight to David and went to bed at about 11pm.  I heard David leave at 11:30.  At 12:15 our house phone rang.  I answered it, somebody from David's work was on the other end.  They were trying to explain something to me but I couldn't figure out what they were saying, plus I was going into panic mode.  David came tot he phone and said "Mom, I fainted".   So Mikey and I went to pick him up.  I wanted to go to the hospital but David just wanted to come home.  When he got home I checked his heart rate with a thing clips onto your finger.  His heart rate was very low, just 50 beats a minute.  This is the second time he has collapsed.  The first was two years ago.  That time we went to the hospital, they gave him a good check up and said he has low blood pressure.  Maybe it's the same this time.  I think he needs a complete check up but he says he is okay.  

David being cheeky.

Haircut

 Hannah and I finally got to the hairdressers.  The hairdresser that I like and have been going to for over 20 years is in the next city so I have to wait until either David or Mikey can drive us.  I enjoy going, gives me a chance to practice my Japanese.  Also the lady that does my hair lived in the UK for a couple of years and still has a little English.

Excuse the mess in the 2nd picture, we are in the process of spring cleaning.

After the hairdressers we went shopping.  Hannah got herself a few new tops.  She spends ages on Instragram looking for fashion ideas, then spends ages walking around stores!  But she comes away with good things. She was looking for a spring coat but couldn't find one!

David and Hannah went to the local mall yesterday.  They were saying that the cherry blossoms are out.  But last night we had a very heavy rain storm so I'm wondering if there are any blossoms left.  Hannah managed to get a few nice photos.

Near the local mall, look nice.

The weather has gone back to winter.  Today was a bit warmer but the past week it has been cold.  Very strange as once it starts to warm up it doesn't go back!  But I'm enjoying it.  Much prefer cool weather to warm.

Spring

 The weather is lovely, it's warm outside with just the right breeze so it doesn't feel stuffy.  My camellia tree is blooming.  Both the house and the yard need a good cleaning.  But I feel like death warmed over!  Allergies are really bad this year.  I'm sitting here with my nose running, eyes burning and my throat feels like sand paper, and that is after taking medicine.   I really wanted to start spring cleaning before my spring holiday.  I always seem to spend my holidays either cleaning or being sick!  So this I thought I would start early but have been reduced to supervising!  David cleaned out our entrance, gave the floor a good scrub so it looks refreshed.  Christopher and Hannah helped with the dinning area, the floor needed a good wash.  There is still a lot to do but step by step.  My hope is to get things done before it gets too hot, there again I have that plan every year!

The yard, I want to grow something!

Lets hope that my health will improve soon!

February

 I'm so glad February has finished!  Started with corona ended with a broken tooth and in between was cold and miserable!

March started with trying to get to the dentist.  Problem was I lost my national insurance card.  The last time I had it was when I got corona.  I honestly don't remember much from the first few days of being sick.  I might have thrown out the card by mistake, who knows?  I went to the dentist and was told I would have to pay 100% for treatment, with national insurance I only pay 30%.  The dentist would pay me back later but I didn't have enough money on me.  David went and got me a new card so next week back to the dentist!

And I have finally joined the 21st century, I have a smart phone.  David got it for me. But at the moment I can only use it in the house where there is Wi Fi.  The end of the month David is changing the phone company and will add me to his contract.

Our little visitor was taken back home!  David found a post on social media with a photo of the cat.  It belonged to really old lady , maybe near 100 years old.  She was so happy to get her cat back. 

Our cats are driving me crazy!  Poor Hannah got buried under three cats last night, she said she couldn't move at all!

With faces like this I can't stay angry long!

Christopher has been cooking again.  He made chicken rice with omelet.  Very nice and gave me a rest from the kitchen.
