    Storm Isha is just starting to hit us 🙁 Very windy out there. 

    The mushroom chilli was delicious 😋 Despite the fact I only had 250g of mushrooms it made loads and there’s a portion left for another day. Photo below. 

    Stay safe everyone.

  • That chilli looks lovely @Sun_Addict. I am veggie so definitely appeals to me.  Just popping in to say hello.  
    Very stormy here as well.

    I feel awful I haven’t gone with him but from past experience I’ll only be in the way and they said he’ll be going off for scans as he’s hurt his neck so I’d just be hanging around.

    Oh @Sun_Addict, that's so upsetting. Sending a big hug (if you want one) and one for the dog too. I think you are wise to stay at home - they can ring you if they need to clarify anything, and when you're in your own place with home comforts you can at least look after yourself more than hanging around in a hospital.

    If you can't sleep, try to relax and occupy your mind or hands - whichever works for you. And remember you've done the right thing, and he's now in the right hands, and your job is to have things in place that you know you need to have in place, then look after yourself. x

    P.S. You probably already know this but head wounds do bleed a lot, the blood can't go inwards so more comes out of even a shallow injury.

    Thank you @Cherryfudge. Yes I remember when I was hit by the car and banged my head there was so much blood! He’s got his phone with him and they have my number so it’s just a waiting game now. 

    Why is it always a Sunday night!

    Thinking of you and sending gentle ((hugs)) Hope you get good news soon. XXX
    I Believe.....
    That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
    Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.

    Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
    Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.

    happiness isn't achieved by getting extra things,
    but by getting rid of the things that make you unhappy
