What's wrong with Gilly?

What's wrong with me? I'm still coughing and I'm seeing the doctor again this afternoon. Just need something to knock it on the head. It's been 4 weeks now which is not fun! Fingers crossed. Oh, and my back has gone into spasm! Ouch, so sore.

Anything else wrong with me? Yes, lots. Rather than complain about the obvious - loose skin, flabby belly (I bet all women and most men dislike their tummy's) aches and pains due to getting older and wrinkles & grey hair - I'm going to talk about some that are more unique to me. 

1. My feet. Most people have big toes that come straight out of the end of their feet. Not me. My big toes bend towards my other toes, making a pointy triangle shaped foot. Aesthetically it doesn't bother me but it causes jutting bones at the bottom of the toe, which is probably a bunion! That's not so great. 

2. My eyebrows. I have the 'Kerr' eyebrow, the same as my dad, uncle and granddad. The boys have long bushy eyebrows that make a bold statement, but not so lady like for a girl. I have to trim them with scissors and if I forget I can grow an eyebrow hair to more than an inch long! I'm not kidding! 

3. My hands. They give away my age. I don't like my fingers and the skin is wrinkly, with sun spots. When I look at my hands I see my mum's hands and my grandma's were also exactly the same. I don't like to think of myself as old, so looking at my hands is not pleasant for me. A reminder I'm getting on.

We've had a lovely week at Forest Holidays near Peebles. The lodge is gorgeous and comfy, the hot tub is relaxing, and the forest is quiet and calming. Bella is with us and she loves it, and Ellie has joined us this time for her first forest retreat. On Wednesday night we did the pub quiz, and we won! Well, jointly won. It went to a tie breaker and we lost. Pipped at the post! Gutting but there you go. Missed out on the prize - Ellie really wanted the forest teddy. Lol. Then last night me and Ellie went to bingo! Really not my thing but I didn't want to let her go alone bless. I was dragged, but it was ok. When we arrived we found out it had been cancelled! Yay. Instead, we sat outside and had a cocktail in the early evening sunshine. Heaven. 

Have a great weekend everyone. 

Of course I talk to myself, sometimes I need expert advice.
