Yesterday I got the first real nasty turn of my old age, when I fainted for a few seconds and made weird grunting noises. But later in the day, I get an email from Steve, my American in-law, who tells me that Kathy, my late sister, used to get similar turns sometimes, although MRI scans etc did not discover anything definite – but yikes !!! That’s why Lois has suggested I shut down my blog for a few days while she forces me into having a healthier lifestyle, with less hours spent in front of the computer screen and the like. Only then can I resume the blog, she says. She can be a bit of a tough and demanding taskmaster, to put it mildly - I have to admit that. And I'm looking forward to being under her orders, I know that for sure haha!

I går fik jeg den første rigtige ildebefindende af min alderdom, da jeg besvimede i et par sekunder og gjorde underlige gryntelyde. Men senere på dagen fik jeg en email fra Steve, min amerikanske svigerbrof, der fortæller mig, at Kathy, min afdøde søster, plejede at få lignende ildebefindende af og til, selvom MRI-scans osv ikke opdagede noget bestemt – men yikes!!! Derfor har Lois forslaget, at jeg afbryder min blog i nogle dage, mens hun tvinger mig til at få en sundere livstil, med mindre timer brugt foran computerskærmen og den slags. Kun dengang må jeg genoptage bloggen, siger hun. Hun kan være lidt af en skrap og krævende slavepisker, for at sige mildt, det må jeg indrømme, og jeg glæder mig lidt til at være under hendes ordrer, det ved jeg med sikkerhed haha!
