Saturday

 last night out youngest son came home so today we went for a bike ride. We did over 18 miles. H was going well , it was his first proper ride since his 2 operations. I think it will be my last ride aged 85. For dinner tonight we had steaks and potatoes, carrots, cauliflower, broccoli , and asparagus. Followed by raspberries, blueberries and blackberries with cream. We also had red wine. 

Thursday

 I had eggs for breakfast and then vacuumed all downstairs . I got the bins round to the front because it’s bin day tomorrow and they are here by 8.30 . H got the bikes out because we were going to bike to Halfords to book our car in for it’s M.O.T. But it was so cold . So we waited till it warmed up a bit then off we went. We booked it in and H also bought a holder for his phone that fixes on his bike. It was a cold bike ride. For dinner tonight we had fish and chips. Yesterday we had stew and dumplings.

Monday

 I got up at 6.11 and had eggs and bell pepper for breakfast. I did some housework and H said he was going to turbo so I put my shoes and coat on and went for a walk. I walked 1.88 miles. Tomorrow if H is feeling ok we are going out for a short ride. After lunch we went shopping 🛒 . For dinner tonight we had pizza and garlic bread. Followed by a hot mince pie with squirty cream all washed down with a glass of Chardonnay. 

Sunday

 I got up just before H he said he had a good nights sleep.mine wasn’t too bad but I woke up once much too hot. My eggs stayed whole so I knew it was going to be a good day. I had a ride on the turbo trainer I did 22.6 miles in 1 hour and16 minutes. For dinner tonight we had chicken curry. 

Saturday

 I got up at 6.30 and he’d eggs for breakfast. It was pouring with rain when I got up and it’s still raining now. H was feeling better today but he didn’t want to go for a walk with me because he doesn’t like the rain. I got ready to and as I went out of the front door, number 1 son drove up he had come to visit his dad. So I took my wellies off again and we all had a coffee. When he left he took me down the road so I could walk back. I walked along the track to the wood, round the back of the village pond across the field and home. . When I got home I got dinner in the oven and had a bath. Dinner was nice, liver , onions, sausage, bacon, mashed potatoes, cauliflower, carrots. spouts and gravy. My walk was 1.90 miles. 

Friday 22 nd of November

 I am going to start blogging again. I have been busy go to the hospital and not sleeping very well. But not H is home and I have caught up on some of my sleep I feel much better. He is feeling much better now and we have been doing some walks . He is horrible to walk with , he drags me along and when we are home again I am out of breath. He got his driving license sorted out today os we will be able to drive out and go for a proper walk. It’s because he doesn’t like walking around here, he says. He has got all his medication now and he seems fine. His pacemaker seems to be working well and his wound is healing nicely. Tonight for dinner we are going to have cod steaks with cauliflower, peas and hash browns. Apple and custard for dessert.

Sunday

 Today I decided to have a ride on the turbo trainer but I only had 3 hours sleep last night so I have been tired all day . So I only did half an hour instead of an hour. I hung out my washing and it was dry when I got it in. H is getting over his pacemaker operation very quickly and is already back on the turbo trainer. For dinner tonight we had stew and dumplings I made enough for four so we will be having it again tomorrow. Yesterday we had pizza and chips and I did baked apple and custard for dessert. 

Thursday

 Yesterday H had his pacemaker fitted he was home by 10 past 8 . We had to be at the at the hospital at 7.15 in the morning. The operation took longer than expected, it was an hour and a half but it should have been 20 minutes. But it’s in and working so we are happy with that. I was so tired yesterday that I got about 6 hours sleep last night. H is in pain but paracetamol help. Our grand daughter went to the hospital at tea time to pick up her grandads medication but they said our doctor has to give it to him. For dinner tonight we had meat balls and pasta in a tomato sauce. 

Tuesday

 Today I washed the kitchen floor and vacuumed all downstairs. Then I walked down to the doctors surgery with our prescriptions, it is almost 2 miles so it took me nearly an hour. H was having a dizzy day and couldn’t drive. This is a short blog because we have to get up at 4 o’clock tomorrow because we have a taxi coming to take H to hospital at 6.30 .

Sunday

 I got up at 10 past 6 , H was already up and cooking his porridge.  Yesterday we went for a bike ride, it was the longest ride we had this week. Most of it was off road, the track is in really good shape which makes the ride much easier. We did almost 24 miles.This week I have 6 out of the 7 days doing either a walk or a bike ride.  Last nights dinner was supposed to be steak but I forgot to take them out of the freezer. So we had salmon instead, the salmon was for Monday’s meal, but Monday will now be steak. It’s a good job my head is screwed on!
