Saturday ( Halloween)

 My leg is better today so after breakfast we went for a walk we only did a mile as I didn’t want to upset my leg. When we got home I had a coffee and then I got my veggies ready for dinner tonight, I put a lamb shank into the slow cooker and dinner is sorted. Next we went outside and did three quarters of an hour’s gardening. I had yogurt and 2 fried eggs for breakfast with a cup of tea and a glass of orange juice. For lunch I had marmite on toast. I thought the Traitors was very good last night but I am sorry that it is over.

 Yesterday we went to the beach with my daughter and great grand children. It was lovely, there was no wind and the. Sun was shining. We had chips on the beach and the children had a lovely time with Dash and he had a lovely time with them.

Today I got my washing dry outside we went for a walk and when we got back I had a coffee and then I did some gardening. I think I did it for too long because it upset my right leg and it keeps giving way. So we couldn’t go for our afternoon walk. For dinner I had fish, chips,peas and corn on the cob.

Tuesday 27th.

 Yesterday we went to buy Dash a rain coat . I think he will be wearing it quite a lot,it’s been raining ever since we got up today . My son left at 7.15 this morning, yesterday he put all my garden chairs in the garage for me because they had all dried out. Thank goodness, it’s rained ever since. Roll on next summer and we can get them out again. But we have got Christmas to look forward to, I have made my Christmas cake. But I am not looking forward to putting up the Christmas tree, Dash loves balls and I don’t think he will be able to resist the ones on the tree. It looks like the rain is stopping so I had better get ready for a walk. We did a walk,I had a letter to post so first we walked to a post box and then to the field. On the way we met a guy who stopped to speak and we were chatting for about half an hour. Dash was very good and stood there without making a sound. When we got back I cleaned the kitchen.j

Monday 26 th of September

 I am writing again , i don’t know where the year has gone. We have changed the clocks and all the leaves are falling off the trees. My little dog Dash and I are doing fine. The trouble is he doesn’t understand the clocks changed so he still gets up to the same time wanting his breakfast.. We were getting up at 6.30 but now it’s 5.30 . But still there aren’t enough hours in the day. We go for a walk in the morning then another one in the afternoon, so we normally walk 2 miles a day. He’s not to keen on the wet days. This weekend my no 2son has come home so it’s a bit different we only do 1 walk a day but it’s still 2 miles. We go to bed later so I am feeling tired.we played our game of cribbage last night and he won. We had coronation chicken last night for dinner and then we had a bowl of chestnuts roasted in the air frier, and it worked well. Today we are going to try to get Dash a rain coat. 

Wednesday

 Today we had to go to see a funeral director to get H’s funeral arranged. All 4 of us went our daughter and our 2 sons we all sorted it out together. It wasn’t nice but it’s done now so perhaps I will be able to sleeep tonight. Our little dog has been as good as gold , number 2 son took him for a walk this morning and we both took him for a walk this afternoon. People have been very kind and I have a lot of cards and flowers. 

I have not blogged in a long while.

 I can’t believe I haven’t blogged since March and a lot has happened since then. On April 1st I fell down the stairs ,i broke my wrist I had 3fractures in my nose and they found 2 hairline fractures in my back, but they said they might be old ones. I lost a lot of blood and it was so bad we had to have a new carpet which we were insured for. I laid at the bottom of the stairs till the ambulance arrived and 2 doctors came from the air ambulance. They said I was lucky to be alive. I was only in hospital for 5 days and shed i came home my puppy recognised me he was really Pluto see me. He is now 8 months old and the time has flown by, he is a lovely little dog. 

But some thing really horrible has happened. H has been unwell and in the end was taken into hospital almost 5 week’s ago, he passed away in his sleep last night. We are all ‘in shock’ at the moment I think.

Friday

 On Tuesday I bought a miniature Dachshund , hi is called Dash. He is a lovely little 

thing. I haven’t had time to write my blog since I got him. This is now Saturday and I hope to get this finished. We had a better nights sleep, he has settled into our family nicely. While I am writing this he keeps fighting with my fingers so if there are any spelling mistakes it’s because of Dash.
