Happy New Year to all my Cutie friends. This was taken yesterday by our daughter Amy - one of her friends, Kristen, bought this for me for Christmas - it's a beautiful blue and yellow tea cup and saucer. It was a thank you for being available to help her when needed. She is a real sweetie, come to think of it, all of Amy's friends are. We had the family over for New Year's day BBQ. This was between bouts of me standing for most of the time. I only sat down to have this picture taken. Love to you all, love Chris

P.S. It should go the right way once you click on the photograph.

A delightful picture of you Chris. Your gift is beautiful and so thoughtful of the young lady. It was also given to a very thoughtful person, you. Hope the New Year will soon see you completely over your malady. Much love /Lillian

Thanks Jerrilyn, yes, she knows I love blues and purples. This girl is one of Amy's good mates and she has just had her third child only 3 months ago. Love Chris

Beautiful cup for a beautiful lady. We fly back home tomorrow (Sunday). We have been away for just over two weeks. Have had a wonderful time with the children but time to go home.

Thanks Lily, I've only got about half a dozen, but Mum has got stacks. I'm sure I'll be inheriting some of her beautiful China. Love Chris

Thanks Carolyn. I decided long ago to use all my good stuff. Mum has got some beautiful China and never uses it. I keep telling her to wear her best lingerie, use all of her beautiful things. She is always a beautifully dressed lady as well. Love Chris

What a wonderfully chosen thank you gift she gave you! I know you are still in pain. When medical conditions take over your life, it really does seem to help to continue taking photos and living your life, like you are already doing, as it gives you good memories of your life going on as normal. Yes, try to do everything that has been suggested to help heal, but doing nothing would make you think about the pain and medical conditions even more than you already are, where as you had a break for short amounts of time and have created beautiful memories and then also shared them with us, for which I am very grateful. Looking at the photo you can not tell just how much pain it was for you to sit. (((Hugs))) and prayers for continuing relief. Pam

I can tell you Pam I was only sitting for that piccie! I'm trying to be brave and put on a happy face. I will always make sure my hair is done and make up too - Mum says we have to always do our best to make ourselves look good, even when we don't feel like it. She's a real trooper, she always looks great and will be 82 at the end of this month. Love Chris

you look wonderful Chris & I like you love fancy tea cups & saucer. I believe in using them too. You can't enjoy them in a china cabinet..........& they are too pretty not to use. I do hope that you are getting some sleep & relief while you do. ~hugs~
