After breakfast, we went upstairs for me to have another go at the loo, then came down again. Sent a Facebook happy birthday to Karen. Cheating’ I know. Then we watched the Grand Prix with a cup of tea and Julio finished mending the washing machine. At the end of the Grand Prix, we decided we’d go out for a drive and would try getting into the Jeep, as it’s bigger than the mini (obviously!).
I didn’t like getting in – it involved using a pallet as a step, and I was worried the walking frame legs would fall down the gaps. However, managed to get in ok. We went for a drive around the field to have a look at the state it was in (ready to plough) and the solar farm which now has a light on all the time that nobody mentioned before. Everyone is really cross about it and saying that something must be done. We then went to wash the jeep, see the result of the demolition of one of the Bassett railway bridges, and get more vegetables.
Got back, getting out of the jeep was easier than getting in, and I sat down to watch yet more tv and Juli went outside to do some stuff. Sian arrived home after going out with her friend Becky, and then went for a snooze as she is still not very well.
More meat in Aga!
Sian came back after her doze, and took me to the loo, and then started getting the rest o
So, that’s about it for now nothing happening from a community team point of view. On Tuesday I have the kidney scan, and on Wednesday the GP visit. I need to call the community team on Tuesday afternoon if I haven’t heard anything. I won’t be doing updates so often now, if that’s ok with everyone. I am trying to come to terms with what my body can and cannot do at the moment, and what I need to concentrate on. The main problem is that I still don’t know what my legs are doing and that I have permanent pins and needles. The other issue is the tightness in my chest that sometimes spasms. I am also very tired, so I think it’s a conserving and building strength now.
Goodnight!
