But I am a boater, as Les would say, and boaters don't give up. <br /><br />As you can see from the pictures I am still enjoying the lovely flowers you gave me. I hope you are managing to stay cool and comfy in this insane heat!<br /><br />Love Jaq xxxMrs. Jaqueline Biggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14248541763708771727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11311723.post-23807259996352920212018-07-08T16:55:12.903+00:002018-07-08T16:55:12.903+00:00I am happy to see that you are eating again Jaq!

I am pleased to bits that you two are enjoying a spectacular summer on the Thames. Isn't it nice to be familiar enough with an area to know where the best mooring spots for you? <br /><br />Thank you for your love, friendship and encouragement. It means the world to me. I can only take life one day at a time now as I don't have the energy to do much else. I appreciate your comment about it all coming right. I am fighting strong to not give in to discouragement. It is a good thing I learned how to tread water!! LOL!<br /><br />Miss you both and sending you Biggs big hugs, <br /><br />Jaq xxx Mrs. Jaqueline Biggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14248541763708771727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11311723.post-16421017424158906192018-07-08T16:19:39.108+00:002018-07-08T16:19:39.108+00:00Hi Judith,

They were through that way not long ago on their way to the Bedford River Festival. You and John have sure covered many miles this summer so far. <br /><br />Thank you for your kind words about my blog postings and for the good wishes on the employment front. I applied for a position with Reaseheath college for fall and another position as copy writer/editor with a local leisure magazine. the latter position is a work from home position and would be perfect for me. <br /><br />Meanwhile the heat is steaming me to perfection!! LOL!<br /><br />May your river journey carry you safely with gentle cooling winds, <br /><br />Love Jaq xxxMrs. Jaqueline Biggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14248541763708771727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11311723.post-13049658882751346752018-07-08T16:13:47.849+00:002018-07-08T16:13:47.849+00:00Oh Elsie I was thinking it was more a picture of t...Oh Elsie I was thinking it was more a picture of two beautifully seasoned goddesses!

Take care of yourself in this extreme heat and keep hydrated, we are on the Nene at the moment on our way to the middle levels and St Neots. Good luck with the job hunt I'm sure there's a job with your name on it out there.

It is about all I can realistically take care of at the mo and the scent of rosemary, lavender and mint lifts my spirits as do the lovely flowers which were a gift from friend and fellow boater Debbie on NB Tickety Boo. <br /><br />I also love my Cobb Oven. It is brilliant and so easy to clean up. I like much better than a traditional BBQ because it is far more versatile and I love that while lit it can reach 450F but I can still pick it up and touch it on the outside which stays perfectly cool. It just makes such sense on a boat where space and safety are real issues.<br /><br />I won't speak much about my books because it dilutes the energy I need to keep writing. the rough draft is from my blog So this is Love. The second book is about the history of my family. I have a title but not a whole lot more on a page yet: Orphan's Daughter. <br /><br />I will blog more soon about the rest of the information my research on Crohn's has uncovered. <br /><br />Thanks for you continued love and patience Pal. It means the world to me. <br /><br />I love you gobs and bunches!<br /><br />Jaq xxx Mrs. Jaqueline Biggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14248541763708771727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11311723.post-57657451164548038582018-07-07T16:55:32.414+00:002018-07-07T16:55:32.414+00:00Jaq - love the flowers on the bow of your home.

You are coping a day at a time. We wall wait patiently and with concern and love for your next postings. Tell us more about your books. Keep chugging along lady. It will most likely get better. Crohns is not for the timid but you'll get a handle on it. And I appreciate your info on malnutrition.... Karen in 90deg Pullman.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
