A good day :)

I have a good day today.  I take Martha and Katy to school and spend some time in the playground.  We have another trip to unicorn, as we build up my stocks of organic food.  Mum is becoming an expert in this, but I simply eat what I am given.  Over the next couple of days, I will share my diet with you.  Right now, I have no idea what I am eating, except that it tastes good.

Later, I walk to Vicky's house (Katy's friend Ella's mum).  This is part of my exercise programme.  I walk a little further day after day.  I dearly want to rekindle the shape of my legs and arms - I want my muscle back!  We have a good chat about all sorts.

I go out for lunch with my mum.  We eat at Beech Road café, and the quality of the food was outstanding.  I had blue cheese and pear salad; my mum a veggie burger.  We follow our dinner with a quick trip to the fabric shop, so that I can buy some elastic for Martha's sleeping bag.  Mum buys some fabric to make a skirt.

The school day is over.  Dave brings Katy home, and we finish her packing.  She is going camping with Vicky and Ella for the weekend, with Year 4.   Martha has gone shopping with Dave to buy a pair of trainers.  She returns a size 5.  I can't believe it!  Lily also arrives (Martha's friend from school).  Martha and Lily are going to guide camp.  Martha decides that she would like her kit in the "embarrassing rucksack", so we move all her clothes and equipment across.  Both girls can hardly stand up when they are wearing their packs.

So we end the day with both girls going to camp.  This means that I have a quiet weekend at home.  I plan to go to Marks and Spencer's tomorrow at opening time, to get some swimwear, using a voucher from Belinda Cashin.  

Have a good night.  Love you all.

The electric bike pump is potatoes and thankyou for gifts

My Dad just called to tell me that he sent  me Pembrokeshire potatoes in a bike pump box.  When I went to Milford Haven, where he lives, last year, we ate and loved these potatoes.  I think it is a hilarious mistake to not notice!

Thank you for the potatoes.  I will have some this evening.  I love you.  Sarah xxx

Katy has a friend called Rosy ("Rosy with a y").  Her mum, Tanya came round today and shared information that she gained from a course on sprouting.  I now have a list of different seeds and what the sprouts are good for.    As a gift, they left me with some vegan flapjack, and very nice it is.  Dave and I have eaten far too much already!

Left eye slightly swollen

As part of my progress, I am very aware that my left eye is swollen.  When I look upward, my eye lid is pulling heavily down on my eye.  I do not like the sensation at all, and I like less "the look".  I know it will pass. 

 

I feel slightly wobbly today.  A big improvement compared to yesterday.  :)
