Longer walk today.

Went easy up the [gentle] hill. My heart wanted to know what an earth I thought I was doing. Been a while!

Still. Home, tired and resting

30 minute walk under my own power today. Then, when Jo came home, I drove out to our local supermarket - which I really enjoyed...I've been getting a dry cough of an evening, but the Aircon sorted that straight away.... would've been useful knowing that a week ago!

Still, I'm getting slowly better, Jo is back to work, and the boys are back on their home ed

None of us is 100%, but we're all better than yesterday...and that matters!

Meanwhile, loads of Jo's colleagues are also going down with covid, many quite hard.

Thanks for your ongoing prayers

Onwards!!

A preacher said, "Anyone with 'special needs' who wants to be prayed over, please come forward to the front by the altar."
With that, Leroy got in line, and when it was his turn, the Preacher asked, "Leroy, what do you want me to pray about for you?" Leroy replied, "Preacher, I need you to pray for help with my hearing." The preacher put one finger of one hand in Leroy's ear, placed his other hand on top of Leroy's head, and then prayed and prayed and prayed for Leroy and the whole congregation joined in, with great enthusiasm.
After a few minutes, the preacher removed his hands, stood back and asked, "Leroy, how is your hearing now?"
Leroy answered, "I don't know. It ain't 'til next week."

@tanja do you have any figures on numbers of deaths from covid v abortions? In any nation?

Thanks my family for your prayers

I've just been out for a beautiful fall walk. 30 minutes, and pretty slow. But that's my first proper exercise in nearly 3 weeks! My legs are feeling it...but I feel great for getting out under my own power.

I've missed most of the really beautiful days and foliage. But saw some beauty in the nature near our home none the less

The leaves are on our driveway

The green path is actually a steep slope...it made me feel hopeful - tomorrow I will try a proper walk into the fields, and get some more exciting photos

Exciting to me, though, cos it represents the ability to breathe and walk πŸ™‚

I'm outside the house πŸ™‚
Walking to the local shop with @StevenBerry for a card and some dinner

It's an exciting moment for Me after two weeks never leaving the house...going to A&E doesn't count

for the first time in two weeks, I actually feel like I am a bit better than I was yesterday

plenty of things going on in our family life, but we have (thanks for the praying), perhaps, made some progress generating something of a short term fix for our website (very technical and I had to get @TakeN wo work through it with me 'cos my brain just couldn't understand it all)

thanks to my beautiful DingDash family - you've been such a strength and support over the past 2 weeks of Covid. we've been humbled by multiple message of love, prayer and support

I've got 1 antibiotic pill left to to take today

Jo is back at work today, which - for her - means working from home until this evening. she still has a mild, dry cough, and is a little slow and weak

boys are back at their home ed, and Peter is doing a sterling job getting on top of some of the housework that has built up - he's loving helping his family out this way

i'm still in bed, but getting there

Andy B and the BerryBunch

some updates on our website and material creation of late!

we haven't disappeared. we are still here - but our website is having some bigger issues (with our hosting company)

so if it goes offline again, it will be quite possibly, semi-permanent - we have a solution, which we'll put in place in the next 36-48 hours and that will resolve things in the next week or two (hopefully much quicker!)

with recovery from Covid, and some other stuff, we're not working at our optimum right now

on top of prayers for Covid (we're mostly past that now, just getting our strength back), could you pray for the website stuff - it is stretching my brainpower, quite a bit, and has caused us quite a bit of stress when we could do without that

had a little sleep...antibiotics must be doing something, because they're knocking me out within a couple of hours of taking one

Father, in the name of Jesus, I am at the brink of my Red Sea, but I thank You for the miracles that come as I face impossible situations.

I thank You for Your saving grace, Your strong right hand, and Your outstretched arm.

No one has an arm like Yours! Even as You brought the children of Israel through the Red Sea, I know You are doing the same for me.

I depend upon You to see me through. There is absolutely nothing impossible for You, Jesus.

I take courage and comfort knowing that You are my strength when I am weak.

My trust is in You, God. I take You at Your word, for Your word will not return void unto You.

2nd pill taken of 5... Shame my appetite is so shot at the moment cos the scrambled eggs Steven made me are probably very nice

@Berrybunchfamily @tanjaostman the parents should be protecting ( his mind) their six year old from the craziness in this world.

Just seen the odd autocorrect - "crafty" should have read "x-ray"

@Berrybunchfamily What did they do with you, except from giving you antibiotics? What does A and E mean (I don't understand every English word and abbreviation).

Discharged and going home. Thanks for your prayers, love and concern... Nearly home. On antibiotics for a week and have to go back in 6 weeks for a repeat crafty

Very sore wrist from the cannula

Jo's taking me to A and E.

I stifled a yawn, and now my heart is doing a weird but gentle beating thing...hoped it'd settle down but it hasnt.

This sucks!

Covid update

Thankyou to those who have been praying and/or sending messages supporting us since last weekend! I will try to find a way of explaining just how important those messages have been, when Im able to

My wife of 25 years - today - made me take a self test, which showed I am testing negative for active virus. Which is good. Because any damage is already done, and it can't make me any worse.

We're aware this is good news, but not the end of this story. We still have a cough, feel generally very rough, and weak.

And Complications can still happen. But a negative test is certainly an encouraging step towards health

But thanks for your prayers thus far. They're still needed.

Andy, Jo, Steven, Nathan and Peter - The BerryBunch

Woke up feeling much stronger and the foul taste in my mouth was gone.
But Jo and I do have a nasty cough. Real nasty!
But lying down makes the cough worse, and I find myself worrying about my breathing......not for the first time, but I'm nervous of breathing deeply in case it makes me cough even more.
Temperature fine one moment, then sweating the next, and back again.
