Good morning everyone, overcast here and quite chilly again, but no frost earlier thank goodness. Could really do with some rain though the garden is parched, whatever happened to "April showers "?
Just back from walking the dogs and having a well earned brew before cleaning the bathroom, then I’ll be cooking pork steak and trimmings for lunch.
I plan on having a lazy day. A bad start to my night, with some stomach pains (had had a tummy upset earlier in the morning). If I feel like it, might go back to bed later, and/or just potter about indoors.
Oooh Barry, don’t encourage the weather with April showers, please! I prefer it to stay dry for dog walking. My pre dog days are a distant memory, when I could stay at home all day if I felt like it, look through the windows at hammering rain and think ‘thank goodness I don’t have to go out in that!’
There were some suspicious dark clouds last night on Holly’s last walk, but we didn’t go out for long, thankfully.
More rain, worked on my 3D projects and scuttled from car port to house to try them out.
Received a letter from Service NSW telling me that I needed to see a doctor to get a medical for me to renew/continue my driving licence (I turn 75 soon), that cheered me up no end.
I went to the physiotherapist on Monday, I don’t need to go again (a relief it is costing a fortune) but she will telephone in June to see how I am getting on. I have to keep up my 3 times a day exercisers and may be able to get rid of the acute pain but she thinks my other problem which restricts the time I can stand or walk is permanent but will be helped with excercise. For someone who is very active and loves walking this is quite a blow I may see about having an x-ray but the wait to see a doctor and to book one could be long and my physio says confirmation of the condition won’t change anything.
I am off to plant some seeds shortly,french beans and runner beans inside and salad stuff in the big tubs outside. Thank goodness I put in raised beds, it makes life much easier because I can work kneeling down .
