    Yesterday before I went out shopping, I fell down 4 steps and really hurt my ankle at the back, but soldiered on to do lots of shopping , which were very stressful. Dropped off Easter goodies at DD for the grandchildren, they stayed on the doorstep whilst I was at the gate. It was great to see them for a few minutes , they were in good spirits. 

    Housework and decluttering today. Plus a shorter walk as ankle sore and massive bruise has appeared . Enjoy the evening .

    Ouch to the fall...take it easy and put your feet up. Do you have anywhere you can sit outside in the sunshine in your new pad?
    Pictures from Gk are the best aren’t they - I’d got one this morning- precious 🥰
    Enjoy your long weekend away from work.

    I have just updated my fb photo of a collage of GKs and what they have been doing, I guess we all miss them .
