Monday

 I have had another nice day. We went to Sheringham for fish and chips then to West Runton for a walk along the beach and a paddle. The weather was better than we thought it was going to be and the car park at Sheringham station was packed. We had a good walk along the beach and a paddle. H and I didn’t want much for tea we just had a bowl of strawberries and cream. Son had a salad.

SUNDAY

 Yesterday was a wonderful day for me. I did a bike ride which was lovely and didn’t fall off ,and my back, which has been hurting for weeks is better. It’s all thanks to my youngest son,who always makes me go out for a bike ride, and then he worked  evening with his massage thing. I feel like a new woman this morning. Plus my cough is much better . 

On our bike ride we saw deer and buzzards dragon flies and lots of butterflies. For dinner we had steak with mushrooms, broccoli and carrots, dessert was strawberries and cream.

Thursday

 I got up early this morning because I wanted to go shopping early and be home by 8.30 because we had got a window cleaner coming round at that time, he was also going to vacuum our gutters and wash everything down. I got home just in time. I put all my shopping away and we had a coffee and a cake. Next  I dusted, I vacuumed everywhere yesterday. When the window cleaner finished I moved our car back to its normal place and we had lunch. After lunch I read a chapter of my book and then went up to turbo. I managed to do an hour. I wasn’t going very fast. When I finished I had a bath and then we had dinner.

 i didn’t cough as much last night so perhaps I am getting rid of it at last. I hung the washing out as soon s I had eaten breakfast . I picked some tomatoes and filled the birdbath. H went up to turbo so I went for a walk. I went to the bridge and picked some Myra bellas. When I got back H had finished his ride so I got us crumpets for lunch and a cup of coffee. For dinner tonight we had pork chops with potatoes carrots and broad beans. Fresh fruit for dessert.

Friday

 I had a better nights sleep last night than the night before when I only had 3 hrs. Last night was 5 hours, still not good enough but moving in the right direction. Anyway I feel better for it. I got up at 6 o’clock and went straight out to water the garden, when I came i came in H was up so I made a pot of tea and we had our breakfast. 

Every evening H has to have 2 pills 💊 it is to keep his blood thin. I give him these at tea time but when I go away he will have to get them himself, so last night I said he had better start doing it himself. I then went up to watch Emmerdale when I came down this morning the first thing I see is his pills laying on the table! He got them out but didn’t take them. 

We went and filled the car with petrol ⛽️ this morning we then went out to sit in the  garden but it was too hot. For dinner tonight we are having a beef Wellington with runner beans, carrots and new potatoes. Last fight we had ribs.

Wednesday

 I was coughing for most of the night so I didn’t get much sleep. Today was my day for meeting my sister in law in the City for lunch. We lunched at Harriet’s again and decided to have the ‘ soup of the day ‘ I thought it might help my sore throat. After we had waited  for over half an hour my sister in law stopped a passing waitress and asked if there was any trouble with the soup, she said no it will be along in about 2 minutes. Five minutes later it arrived. Sister in law had a spoonful and said it was almost cold, so I had a spoonful of mine and it was HOT . I couldn’t even touch the outside of the soup bowl. Sa we called the waitress again and she said she would get another one. Another wait by which time mine was just the right temperature. We were half way through it when the waitress cane and said we did not have to pay for our soup. So we just paid for our drinks. I walked over 3 miles round the City . I have done a lot of talking today and now I cannot stop coughing.
