I really don't know how I can top last nights blog post, written so eloquently by my eldest son. This is what happens when you overdo things during the day and end up in bed at 8:30pm, with weakly sent instructions for someone to 'write the blog please'!!
After an enforced lengthy stay in bed, I woke feeling much brighter today, and managed a 45 minute dog walk before going to see the lymphoedema nurse again. She is lovely but I told her I'm not going to see her again. I said I've been twice now, and not only has she not given me a massage, she hasn't even bothered to 'tape' me either!! In fact I said the whole thing has been a total let down.... ( joking aside, she is going to see if she can refer me for some 'complementary therapy'- which will be lovely!)
I left there to go to the Merton for a yoga class, or at least part of one, but i managed to do the whole class, and it was BRILLIANT. First time that I enjoyed doing a normal activity in six weeks, and exercise to boot! Had lovely hugs from the staff, and enjoyed a cup of tea with a few friends as well, so a great morning!
Didn't need a rest this afternoon, sadly missed another opportunity for a swim but ended up in the garden doing a few jobs and employing hubby in the more strenuous tasks. Suddenly at 4:30pm i was tired, and once again had to down tools and stagger indoors issuing instructions as i went, feigning extreme exhaustion i commandeered Becky to peel carrots and Dan kindly shelled my lobster for tea.
Fortunately I had recuperated enough to to eat supper, and then I contacted my personal shopper ( AL who was working her way around a well known supermarket) and gave her a short list. The service does come with delivery too, at no extra charge!
Steve said he wanted to take a photo of our 'harvest'.....
Talking of which, thank you to GB who dropped in with lovely harvest jam and biscuits and flowers from the parish Church Harvest service.
