A Cold Sunday

Enjoying the crisp cold weather we've got at the moment, but it is a job to keep warm. Have closed all the internal doors to trap the warmth.

My kitchen

The kitchen tends to be a bit cooler most of the time as it's a huge room with just one tiny radiator, from the original kitchen that was half the size. It's fine when the oven is on and I'm cooking but a tad cool if not and sucks heat from the rest of the house.

Each day I am making good progress. Last night I managed to sleep a spell on each side as well as flat on my back. I had a pillow between my knees for comfort and it all seems fine this morning.
This week I have an official physio session at the hospital Wednesday, and the staples/clips out on Thursday.
I am already beginning to forget I have had the surgery at times. I woke up and tried to roll over as I used to and it was only when I actually got pain moving that I remembered. I think Honey is getting used to the odd swear word from me now :D
I forgot to take up pain killers for the morning so had a trip downstairs at 5.30am to get them. But Honey went out for a pee then too. We both went back to bed and sleep after, and slept in until 8.30.
By the time I was dressed and downstairs, Honey was making it very clear she was hungry and breakfast was late in coming! I lined up the breakfast pills for me, cooked up a couple of eggs and some baked beans for my breakfast, made a huge mug of black coffee, then dished up Honey's IAMS and tripe. She licked the dish clean.

I am looking forward to a good night out tonight. I'm going to the Arts Centre, The Lighthouse, for a show of lively music and dance - The Lock In - Damien Barber's latest mixing-it-up dance show. Everything from traditional Morris and clog dancing, through to modern street dance, break dancing and something called Krank! (OK I googled it... HAD to find out :D) There is also varied music to go with it all. Sounds like a high energy show and they start things off with local Morris sides dancing in the foyer and bar of the Lighthouse. Should be a really good night out. John and Roz are picking me up. I just hope I have enough leg room to sit comfortably in the theatre.

Watch this space for a review after tonight!
Have a good Sunday and a happy week ahead.
