Hi @Sophia1 my beautiful friend, 

im so sorry for the late reply, i have been so buggered of a night, been fixing mums car, painting, working on the bike fixing a broken main water pipe. just everything went wrong last week so i was flat out. 

still waiting for what is happening with mum, the dr is hoping to find a doctor closer to us as sydney is over 6 hours away. so i hope she can find a doctor that is flying into our local hospital or who is closer to us. 

my pigs faces looked amazing this year, i will post a photo for you below. 

my plants are starting to recover, i think it was the speed that summer came around, we went from winter to summer and missed spring. 

yes i remember your gardener you told me about him a few moths back, it must make things much easier and help you really enjoy the garden looking amazing.

yes, i have a really good mental health care team around me now, they are seeing me monthly and they are sending me for testing for autism as they think i may be on the spectrum. which would explain a lot as to why i am not normal. 

awe yes i am a self confessed nerd, im so sorry you are unable to speak with your son, it must hurt so so much. hugs my friend. it sounds like him and i would have a great time chatting about computers and electronics. 

no your replies are not too long, they put a smile on my face, i really enjoy chatting here, it is nice to talk about things we have in common. 

lots of hugs my friend. hope you are well.
