Wednesday

 I got up this morning and felt much better when I had had a cup of tea and some yogurt. And tonight I am back to normal thank goodness. I don’t know what it was , my sister in law thought my blood pressure would be low and said when I get home to take it , but I felt too bad to do it, i took it this morning though and it was normal. We had beef in black bean sauce and rice for dinner with tiramisu for dessert. 

Tuesday

 Today was my day in the City with my sister in law. So after my usual breakfast I dressed and caught a bus at 9.30 to the City. First I went to the Bank to put a check in for the house keeping money. Then I walked up to M&S to meet my Sister in law, we went upstairs in Marks for a coffee and a chat. When I got up from the table I had a dizzyness pass over me. I didn’t say anything because I just thought I had stood up too quickly. We walked down past the market and I went into Hotter and bought a pair of boots. Then we went into Jarrolds. My friend got what she wanted and we came out because it was time for our lunch. As we came out of Jarrolds I felt really dizzy so I sat on a seat in the fresh air while my S i l had a look round White Stuff and then we went into Harriet’s for lunch. When I sat down I felt awful I ordered an orange juice and we ordered our lunch. I couldn’t eat anything and when we came out a couldn’t walk. My S I L had rung her husband ( my brother ) and arranged for him to come to the top of London and pick us up. The manager of the restaurant walked with us because he could see how bad I was. I was walking like someone drunk and if my S I L hadn’t got me by the arm I would have fallen down. They brought me home and when I got indoors I was sick. I went straight to bed. After 2 hours I felt better so i went down and had 3 cheesey biscuits and some water. Now I feel fine. I walked 2 and a quarter miles.

Monday

 Today I did housework in the morning and our no 1 son  came round on his new e bike. It’s a really nice one. He brought our Christmas card round. When he left I went for a walk. The bird song was amazing round the village pond. Tomorrow I am meeting my sister in law for lunch. She has booked the table because she says the City will be packed. For dinner tonight we had salmon with a jacket potato, peas and a bread roll.

Sunday

 I haven’t blogged for ages so I thought I’d better write one. Last weekend was really good, on the Saturday I went for breakfast with Santa and a lot of our family. It was really nice the great grand children had a wonderful time and were as good as gold . I went for a walk in the afternoon with our youngest son. I did another walk with him on Sunday and then again on Monday.  This week I have iced the Christmas cake,finished wrapping the presents , posted all the Christmas cards and swept the garden path. I have taken H out in the car twice. For dinner tonight we are having barbecue ribs, potatoes, broccoli, carrots and leeks. 

Thursday

 I got up at six and as soon as I had eaten my breakfast I got ready to go shopping when I got home I unpacked it all and put it all away. We had a coffee and a cake. Then i walked down to the post office to post a Christmas card to New Zealand. When I got home i wrote the last of my Christmas cards and wrapped 2 more of my Christmas presents. For dinner we had ribs with broccoli,carrots and potatoes.

Tuesday..

 Today has been a busy day. This morning we walked to the chemist, and this afternoon I put the Christmas tree up and decorated it. The lights took an hour to untangle but they work which is the main thing. For dinner tonight we had a jacket potato with mince and beans  and for pudding we had baked apples with custard.
