I feel relaxed and calm and it’s made me realise just how wound up I’ve been in recent months. I started 2020 feeling worried about my diagnosis and treatment. I was starting chemo-immunotherapy and having […] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: April 21st, 2020 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: 52adventures | lymphoma | My Life. 7 comments - more welcome! - (Comments are closed)Sometimes the best plans don’t survive contact with reality, especially when reality decides to shift. But I’m counting our blessings. We’re in decent health (aside from a touch of lymphoma, which is improving.) We have savings that we can manage to live off for a surprisingly long time – which is good, because all of […] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: February 29th, 2020 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: 52adventures | Mr TLC | My Life. 7 comments - more welcome! - (Comments are closed)I’m making 2020 a year of 52 mini-adventures. These might be new experiences, fun things to do or challenges to complete. Will I reach my goal of 52? I hope so, but the most important thing is to have an interesting time trying new things. A mere 22 years after Mr TLC and I went […] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: September 2nd, 2019 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: My Life | The Job. 5 comments - more welcome! - (Comments are closed)I’ve taught my last lesson, which was more of a milestone than usual because I’m not going back in September. It’s time for a change. I am officially entering The After Math. — Lois Lindemann (@MoreThanMaths) July 18, 2019 Today did not start with an alarm and an INSET […] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: June 2nd, 2016 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: #30DaysWild | gardening | My Life. One comment so far - more welcome! - (Comments are closed)Being of a childish deposition, when asked to participate in icebreaker type activities, it used to amuse me to say, “Hi, I’m Lois and I have worms.” It was even true, I did have worms, hundreds of them, munching away at the assorted vegetable waste that went into the compost boxes at the end of […] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: January 18th, 2015 Posted in: Life | The Universe Tags for this post: London | My Life | Sheffield. 2 comments - more welcome! - (Comments are closed)It appears that we need to get out more. Last January, on our annual jaunt to London, we were sitting in the pub that we like to refer to as our London local, enjoying a beer and the amazing view of the river and St Paul’s, when I had a slightly worrying thought. We had […] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: January 7th, 2015 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: Food | Mr TLC | My Life. Comments are closedThere is something quite magical about being the person who brings the birthday cake. Mr TLC’s younger GrandKitten’s midweek birthday did mean that baking time was a little constrained, so I decided that a midweek special was required: a Victoria sponge cake, topped with butter icing, in the shape of an animal. Since the effect […] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: January 6th, 2015 Posted in: Life | The Universe Tags for this post: More Cats | My Life. Comments are closedBeing King of the Castle We have booked a holiday cottage at a rather famous castle. I am far more excited about this than can be rationally explained. Did I tell you that we were staying in a castle? An actual castle? Woohoo!

Converted a muddy mess into a garden that I love Once upon a time we had an overgrown quagmire at the back of our house. Then some mild weather back in February allowed me to get started on some pruning and one thing led to another. We cut back, pruned, dug out and cleared […] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: September 5th, 2014 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: My Life | Spurious lists. One comment so far - more welcome! - (Comments are closed)Watched a bike race. Learned to make croissants and Danish pastries. Listened to the blues whilst drinking beer at Tramlines. Went to the seaside. Got up early and made the most of the day. Had a lazy lie in bed with coffee and the newspaper. Rode a carousel. Shared fish and chips with Jonathan Livingstone […] |
