Saturday 3rd May and the week

Its been a funny week. Angie has been off with back problems and again I have been confined to the house for most of the week.

On Monday we had our first ever delivery from ASDA with a shop we had done online. It was all a bit of a non event with a rather large man arriving at our door with boxes packed with shopping.
Angie has a very short acceptance of boredom and is very restless. On this day she had a major migraine and spent most of the day in bed.

Wednesday was our next notable day. Angie took me out to the Garden Centre………. We had a light lunch and sat and looked at the view from the terrace.
Thursday was a good day with three buses coming all at the same time. In the morning we had a call from Ian Large who said he was coming over to cut our grass. He arrived just as Angie was going out to see Anna in Mildenhall. We have new neighbours at No 4 who happen to be called “Peter and Angie” and they came over to say hullo.. While chatting with them they let slip they were looking for a decorator, a plumber and a gardener. Ian picked up on this and offered his services. He got himself 3-4 days work doing decorating.
As he finished Gill and Rupert Green arrived to walk our dogs. Firstly they took Beattie out for a decent walk with Almond and then on their return they took Lomu and Berkley out for a shorter walk. They had barely gone when Mike and Fyl Bevan arrived to chat.

What a day…………. Its a shame it doesn’t get more spread out.

Friday was spent with us at home waiting for Ben to arrive in the evening. So, a not very interesting week………

Monday 28th April

Today has been a funny day. Angie got up and continued with the migraine she had had for the last 24 hours. After a little persuasion she allowed me to ring the doctor on her behalf. The doctor rang back and made her an appt for later in the morning when she went to the Health centre and was prescribed with some drugs to help with the migraine but the pharmacy didn’t have the drugs to stop her being sick. She has spent the day in bed while I have hobbled trying to do jobs on my crutches.

It will be another 4 weeks before I get rid of these crutches and stop watching daytime TV and re runs on Amazon Prime……… although I am enjoying Tom Selleck in Blue Bloods

Slow day

Its been a day of messing around on my Mac and other stuff. Angie went to church but didn’t make it there as she had an emergency call from Anna. I messed around and then decided to see if I could cut the back lawn….. Job done….. Painful

Easter Monday

Today Easter Monday started with our neighbours (Margaret and Linda) taking the dogs for a walk.

Angie did work while I watched daytime TV!!!! After several hours we decided we needed a change of scenery and despite her bad back and my broken leg we went to Bury St Edmunds to people watch. Parking was critical here as I obviously can’t walk very far on crutches. We managed to find a parking space near to Debenhams and hobbled very slowly down to the Apex which was in sunshine.

Luckily we found a table in the sun and Angie bought us Cappucino and date cake. Yum yum, except I was trying to have a fast day. I don’t suppose there were too many calories in the cake but I need to be strict for the rest of the day……….. drinking tea……..

I took a few pictures.
