Hope you feel a bit brighter today Rox … nausea and dizziness make you feel damn awful and scared to do anything …at all.
I nipped off for my blood test this morning, fingers crossed … otherwise I haven’t done too much. Cleared out the back of the wardrobe, threw away some old suspenders and old dried up paint.
Morning. Rox hope your feeling better today. Not a lot planned for today, except tidying up the shoe cupboard and putting some into the Charity shop.
Everyone seems to be tidying up cupboards.
I did mine yesterday … might be because summer seems to have gone.
Evening, Still not feeling great but had a video call with the Cardio Unit today, they’ve changed my dose of certain meds to see if that helps. I’ve to call my GP next week and get them to check me for vertigo and something else I’ve forgotten the name of, but she’s emailed my GP so he’ll know what the Unit want done. Another video appointment in 2 weeks.
Just wondering if I’ll manage the pool tomorrow or if I should leave it till Monday.
Play it by ear … but I know how much you love going to the pool.
Is there hot tubs too that you can just relax in?
Yes there’s 3 tubs, 2 hot and one pool temperature, along with 2 steam rooms and 2 saunas. I only use the pool temperature one just now as I’m not allowed to go in the hot ones untill after the op and recovery is complete. Something to do with the heat and my heart spiking. I only ever use the steam rooms in Winter if I have a cold, they have eucalyptus in with the steam and it fairs clears your head. I hate the saunas they make feel I’m going to pass out so I avoid them, though Dunc likes them and sits in there a lot.
I’ve never fancied saunas … for the same reason. Hot tubs though sound real relaxing . It must be awful waiting for your op. Half of you dreading it, the other half can’t wait to get it over so you can get back to the things you like doing and you can relax.
Morning, Well no pool I’m only just up didn’t sleep well at all last night. No plans for the day just take it as it comes. Nausea seems to be less so hoping it’s on the way out.
Plan to have a quiet Weekend, hoping I can get back to normality by Monday.
Morning. Rox glad to hear that the nausea isn’t as bad as it was. Never tried a sauna but did try a hot tub on a family holiday. Not sure what to get up to, maybe a bit of gardening or a trip to the shops.
Evening ladies I’ve been busy all day … only just now wondering what to have for munchies.
Chips and mushy peas sounds tempting.
Sounds good to me Morty. We have a Chippy Dinner around once a month. It used to be once a week but it just got so expensive we cut it down.
Morning ladies. Love a good fish supper. Had one the other day wen I was out shopping, saved me making dinner… Going to do another bit of weeding later in the back garden.
Morning, Nice here so far today, been to Tesco, and plan a clean up in the greenhouse later, it’s not had much use this year so far as I couldn’t cope with it. But the beasties have taken full advantage and it’s all cobwebs and ants…Yuck, but they are being evicted today.
Might get out for dinner tonight, but not sure where as the bloody tourists are encroaching everywhere.
Have a good W/E folks.
Aftnoon ladies … hope you haven’t seen the forecast for stoem Flora or something next week. Seems a strange month for a storm.
I’m rather enjoying myself today rummaging through my canvases and paints. I didn’t paint at all last year … time to have some fun again.
Afraid so Morty, known about it for a few days now. 
Hiya
So sorry I missed all this, entirely my fault, I used to be a regular on this lovely thread.
Rox, i really feel for you, heart problems are really horrible.
My issues are the absolute opposite of yours, mine is heart failure, blood pressure so low I can fall over trying to stand up.
I can have no more surgery, medication only,
Science and medical technology has come a long way since my open heart surgery 24 years ago, they are brilliant at it and recovery is very rapid, as long as you do as they say and it is amazing how good your life can be afterwards.
It can be a bit intimidating being surrounded in a hospital bed by all the noisy beeping machinery,but it is good fun to learn about them all and what they mean.
Take care, you will be fine and feel free to message me if you have any worries.
Morning. My friend phoned me yesterday so I met up with her for a coffee. I don’t think we’re going to be affected to much by the storm, it seems to be the North that will be affected. I’m waiting on tree surgeons to cut down trees that are quite clse to my fence.
Morning, Starting to get a bit wild here, and it’s very dark for the time of day. I took this from the Lidils carpark just after my swim.
Nothing planned today just keeping my head down at home.
After noon… We had rain here earlier and its windy and sunny at the same time. t doesn’t seem as bad as they said it would be. People are out walking their dogs, but I’m staying indoors and catching up on housework.
As long as you both keep safe … that’s the main thing. Some of the pictures online look a little wild and there’s thousands without power.
As a comparison … down in cheshire it was a grotty windy morning with lashing rain but now there’s not a cloud in the sky and the sun’s out. It’s blown through here … I couldn’t live in Scotland, even though you have some beautifiul countryside.
