A Pleasant Start To The Week.

Today Richie and I did the exercises early enough for him to take me to the bathroom to be showered and dressed as well as perfumed.

All this was done before Miranda; the wound nurse from the rehabilitation clinic came to check on the wound.

We were in fact ready just before 1200 which she is due to be here, as it was we had to wait until 1215 before Miranda arrived.

It was really good to be showered and dressed waiting for the wound nurse to arrive rather than to be got out of bed just before or just as she arrives.

Being ready made me feel much better, 1215 when Miranda arrived I was ready for her to inspect the wound which she did immediately.

She removed some tissue that she thought was probably stopping the progress of the healing, after which a photo was taken and Miranda left after 10 minutes.

After which Richie has put me back into bed, then they went into the kitchen and made us a delicious lunch, vegetarian sausages, chips and cauliflower cheese.

The plan is to eat some delicious pumpkin soup this evening with garlicky croutons and fresh fruit.

I am enjoying the day immensely, Richie is too so I think we will try and replicate an early start every day, I'm sure that will improve the days for us.

It’s brilliant that we have had our lunch, and I written my blog post for today before Mathilde, my physiotherapist gets here for our Monday appointment.

Nice to be ready so early it has put a different complexion on the day and I must say that it's one that I like very much, nice to feel on top of things.

What a pleasant way to start the week, much better than rushing to keep up, this way we both feel relaxed, positive and better able to cope.

Nice Visit. Today.

Another good night’s sleep last night, although I did wake Richie once in the early hours, think it was around 4 am.

The THC helped me back to sleep after a short while, was surprised to hear it was 11 am when I woke up again.

Sat today, but not for as long as I wanted to as a friend was visiting, it was extremely good to see Toos.

Met her here in 1982, her birthday is the day after mine on 18 of March, unlike another friend Lucy, who is precisely 6 months younger, Toos does not tell me that she is a day younger than me.

Lucy used to tell me often that she is 6 months younger than I am.

She does not have to say anything these days as I just think it for her, guess that is how brain washing works.

Found out how brain washing affect children too, when Carole and her son were here, found out much to our surprise that her son would only eat food from Tesco.

Baked beans had to have the Tesco label; he also liked bean burgers from Burger King, and had to go there at least once a week.

Heard his mother moaning about Burger King, so I just said ‘I wonder where he gets the money from’ she went pink and dropped the topic and her son giggled

While he was here he watched Richie cooking, and he was especially interested in how bread and pizza were made as well as ice cream and curries and cakes.

The year after pizza and salad with balsamic vinegar were his favourites and burgers were right out, glad to think that my comment has helped him to like good food.

A very pleasant visit with Toos, she was here for nearly two hours, great fun chatting and having a good laugh.

Nice to see her looking well, Richie and the dogs have just gone for a walk around the park, sadly not on the bike as the lift is again not working.

Looking forward to a fine dinner of cauliflower cheese and baked potatoes and tomatoes and mushrooms and for me two lamb sausages.

Yummy a tasty Thursday treat.
