Dear Body

If my blood count, cholesterol, fasting glucose, iron, liver function, thyroid levels etc. are all normal - why do you feel knackered?

Ms Exlibris  Stress/depression?
Drummerman  Life...
Bentonbag  To look on the bright side - at least my weight gain can be put down to pure gluttony rather than an underactive thyroid (which afflicts both my sisters)
Dicky Brown  Give up jogging immediately.
Strawangel  Erm, could it be age.....pace yourself B!! x
Mr Mull  Perhaps because 9 times out of 10 you feel knackered due to other people.  Problem is 9 times out of 10 when you feel wonderful is also due to other people.  The usual Catch 22!  Oh, should have said 'people & cats'!
Mr Python  Alcohol level is too low..luckily many self-administerable remedies are available

First Christmas card today and bittersweet sorting of Christmas card list.  

Two people on last year's list no longer with us, one tragically by her own hand.  

But old friends and new friends found to add to the list.

Later  Now three people.
RIP Fred Mowbray, after a long illness, bravely and cheerfully borne.
Those words look so cliched, but that's because sometimes cliches carry the truth.

Today's Recycled Art flower collage. 

The tutor has students colour in the flowers and then presents them with templates for the various leaves and petals to cut out from fabric and/or felt.  

Ferretfingers' are always quite abstract.

But Fester looked at this and instantly said "Poinsettia".

Fester has just had a spam email offering to publish one of his learned papers as a book.
There was some discussion about this concluding with "…and if I want to publish a book I'd do it myself."
“Well you have.”
"Quite. I have a phenomenal plethora of talents."
Sometimes I'm quite overwhelmed by the modesty.

Quite pleased Thunderthighs has asked for a book for Xmas.
Ok it's "Fuck Yeah, Video Games" but it is a book, and it is an autobiography.
Tyleback  There we are then innit xxxx
