Waving back 👋👋 Beanie 👋👋

Glad to see things are moving in the right direction for you. I think retiring earlier through ill health might be a wise decision, it's no good waiting for retirement only to be too ill to enjoy it 😟
I have an old £20 note in my purse that DD1 gave me,I took it to the bank to change it and she told me they are still legal tender so I can spend it or pay it into my account and then draw a new one out of the cash machine,I had no idea they were still legal tender

I was surprised too when the shop accepted the £20 😀

A friend from work has been around with a card the children made and a beautiful bunch of flowers. She stayed just over an hour and filled me in with all the goss. I’m quite glad to be out of the politics of it all tbh. It was good to see her but I felt like I’d done a days work.
We are booked in for a meal at Tom Kerridges restaurant in big city near me next week, I’m undecided whether or not to go or cancel. We’d booked previously but cancelled after ds accident then they cancelled us cos of COVID. I think I’m going to go for it even if we get a taxi to drop us off and pick us up outside. I bought vouchers for dd and ds last Christmas but it’ll be my birthday weekend so I really want to go. I am eating ok so should be fine.

I’m going around to ds tomorrow and will have tea there - I might decide after I’ve been out. But a week could make a difference and it’s something to look forward to 😀

How nice of the work friend to pop round and keep you up to speed 😁 I would definitely go to Tom’s restaurant it will be a fabulous experience 👍

I’m actually really looking forward to going to the restaurant- I think it’ll do us all good as it’s been quite a 2020 one way or another for us.......

How lovely to get flowers and a card plus a visit from a friend😊 I would go for the meal if you feel up to it, the way things are going it might be then only chance you get to go for a while

I’ve actually got dressed for the 1st time since the beginning of September - I’d forgotten what hard work it is. I’ve put some cargo pants and a loose t shirt on. The waistband goes right across the stoma so I’ve had to pull them right up.....could be interesting sourcing clothes that suit 😳 Shattered now. Waiting for the nurse to come. They’re talking about some sort of specialist dressing with a pump to draw the moisture out.....they are very clever.....but I suspect that’ll be tomorrow if they go down that route.....I’ll be forever grateful to the doctors and nurses.
I’m heading over to ds house later - I’ll only be sitting as I would at home - but nice to see different walls 👍 It’s about a 15 minute drive.

Yah for seeing DS.

Just got home - literally walked from my door to the car, travelled in car 15 minutes - got out of the car and walked into his house. Sat down was waited on hand and foot. Did the journey in reverse .......I’m absolutely shattered and off to bed....night night 🥱😴
