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.

Saturday

 Today our son ( who came home last night for the weekend) worked on my back and it is feeling much better. He and I went for a walk this afternoon, it was lovely in the sun but the wind was freezing. For dinner we had steak with mushrooms, broccoli, purple spouting broccoli.carrots and potatoes. It was nice.

Tuesday

 This morning we shopped at Lidl and then went for a walk in the woods. We did 2.21 miles. H said it was really hard, but it’s the first time he’s been that far for ages. When we got home I unpacked the shopping and got lunch, we had a tortilla ( potato and onion). This afternoon I vacuumed downstairs , washed my hair and then had a bath before dinner. It was beef with rice in a black bean sauce. Dessert was tiramisu.

Sunday

 Today i didn’t feel a hundred percent when I got up but I had my usual breakfast and decided to have a ride upstairs anyway. I got ready and just did one lap instead of the hour I normally do on a Sunday. It was better than nothing. I still aren’t right but I have some medication so I hope to be back to normal in a couple of days. For dinner we had ribs with sprouts, broccoli carrots and potatoes.

Saturday

 When I went shopping on Thursday they didn’t have any bananas so I thought I would walk to the shop and ger some today. I had also forgotten to buy fresh orange juice. I went along Marriotts way and got what i wanted and then walked back. By the time i got home my arms were aching because it was heavier than I expected. But it was a nice walk. Yesterday for dinner we had cottage pie with broccoli and carrots, today we are having chilli con Carrie.

Thursday

I got up at six thirty and had my breakfast. As soon as I had finished I went up and dressed and went shopping, the car looked like it was covered in water but when I went to wipe it off the window s it was frozen solid so I had to get that all off before I could go. When I got home I put it all away and we had a coffee and a cake. We changed into our cycle gear and went for a ride. We weren’t very fast because it was still muddy, the sun was lovely. For dinner we had lasagne and salad. Fresh fruit for dessert.
