What’s This Shining Yellow Ball in the Sky?

After weeks of rain the sun decided to show its face today. So wonderful to be able to get the cushions out and sit down under the pergola, heaven.   

Weekend Activities

 Mya and I off to do the shopping

And then Purdie and I having an early morning beach walk on Sunday with a yum hot chocolate whilst the rest of the family sleep. 

Hair Cut

Managed to squeeze in a change of hair this morning. Can’t believe how much it’s grown. Pretty short now tho, but I love it. 

Another Operation for John

Following his ankle fusion in mid 2024, John has suffered extreme pain in his foot. Very different from his arthritic pain but still debilitating. 

His surgeon felt that the upper part of his ankle bone had not vascularised around the pin and so suggested one pin being removed and a larger one put in. 

So today he went into St Richards for another day surgery. 

After looking at the X-rays it appears that the surgeon removed the old smaller screws and added 3 larger ones. 

He’s now got a big boot on and 6 weeks signed off work.  So hoping this will reduce his pain. 

Weekend Doodle

I love the way Mya passes the time by drawing and gets so much pleasure from it. 

Career Interview at School

As part of Mya progressing towards her GCSEs and last 2 years of school, she had a career interview this week to introduce her to the world of working and representing herself. 

Not surprisingly she conducted herself with maturity and professionalism.  So proud of her and who she is becoming. 

First Lawn Cut of the New Year.

A breezy but sunny day and dry enough to cut the grass.  Makes me feel like Spring might be just around the corner.
