Oh! Yeah... She went to the doctor. It was just the flu; not CoViD-19, thank goodness. Thank you for asking. Yes, she's better. Right now, though she's caring for her mother. Mom's not well. I think she may be suffering with arthritis. And she's not very old. Not as old as my parents anyway...
she really is a good girl, yes. & Thank you! I'm really amazed by her. I was relieved. I thought it mut be CoViD-19 because she'd already had a cold less than a year ago, but no. It turned out to be fine. Just a flu or other head-cold.
You can stop that right now! We all make mistakes Sam. The first-ever forum I joined, I did a thread for ladies only, and all the guys went crazy. Forums are for all. The last post on that thread was from a female, it said -"How to join a forum and not make friends" I learned my lesson. So let us all say sorry and for goodness sake start again. PLEASE
A Bible study group was discussing the unforeseen possibility of their sudden death. The leader of the discussion said, "We will all die some day, and none of us really know when, but if we did we would all do a better job of preparing ourselves for that inevitable event." Everybody shook their heads in agreement with this comment. Then the leader said to the group, "What would you do if you knew you only had 4 weeks of life remaining before your death, and then the Great Judgment Day?" A gentleman said, "I would go out into my community and minister the Gospel to those that have not yet accepted the Lord into their lives." "Very good!", said the group leader, and all the group members agreed that would be a very good thing to do. One lady spoke up and said enthusiastically, "I would dedicate all of my remaining time to serving God, my family, my church, and my fellow man with a greater conviction." "That's wonderful!" the group leader commented, and all the group members agreed that would be a very good thing to do. But one gentleman in the back finally spoke up loudly and said, "I would go to my mother-in-law's house for the 4 weeks." Everyone was puzzled by this answer, and the group leader ask, "Why your mother-in-law's home?" "Because that will make it the longest 4 weeks of my life."
An Irishmen wanting to become a Priest went to see the Bishop who said "You must answer 3 questions on the Bible. 1st - Who was born in a stable?" "Red Rum" he replied. "2nd - What do you think of Damascus?" "It kills 99% of all germs" he replied. "3rd - What happened when the disciples went to Mount Olive?" "That’s easy", he said, "Popeye kicked the shit out of them!!"
A man was dining alone in a fancy restaurant and there was a Gorgeous redhead sitting at the next table. He had been checking her out since he sat down, but lacked the nerve to talk with her. Suddenly she sneezed, and her glass eye came flying out of its socket towards the man. He reflexively reached out, grabbed it out of the air, and handed it back. 'Oh my, I am so sorry,' the woman said, as she popped her eye back in place. 'Let me buy your dinner to make it up to you.' They enjoyed a wonderful dinner together, and afterwards they went to the theatre followed by drinks. They talked, they laughed, she shared her deepest dreams and he shared his. She listened to him with interest. After paying for everything, she asked him if he would like to come to her place for a nightcap and stay for breakfast. They had a wonderful, wonderful time. The next morning, she cooked a gourmet meal with all the trimmings. The guy was amazed. Everything had been so incredible! 'You know,' he said, 'you are the perfect woman. Are you this nice to every guy you meet?' 'No,' she replies. Wait for it ... It's coming ... The suspense is killing you, isn't it? She said ... 'You just happened to catch my eye.'
Hospital regulations require a wheel chair for patients being discharged However, while working as a student nurse, I found one elderly gentleman already dressed and sitting on the bed with a suitcase at his feet, who insisted he didn't need my help to leave the hospital. After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me wheel him to the elevator. On the way down I asked him if his wife was meeting him. 'I don't know,' he said. 'She's still upstairs in the bathroom changing out of her hospital gown.'

So, my girlfriend really made my day today, and I'm so proud of her for being a trooper - dating me is no fun at such a distance. Things are ok for me right now. I'm working; trying to get a promotion to a different part of the company, but I don't think they'll give me it. And the presidency is going well. People in California with low-incomes like I have are getting a stimulus check from our state, which is nice to have.
Brilliant news Soul. I am just biding my time until the UK is out of lockdown. I have to admit it has been getting me down lately.
