This morning I was up late, have been very tired just lately so thought I would try not taking the Naproxen to see if they were the culprit. The ankle still hurts when I have taken them so worth a try. Back in January I bought a voucher for an afternoon tea at Palm Court for Sandy's 65 th birthday. It has been arranged and postponed several times, but today we actually made it. She picked me up and it was lovely, we were the only ones having the set meal and had a charming waiter. Sandy had picked me up, but I decided to take a walk into town afterwards, as she was going to get her mothers shopping anyway. Indoors I had tried wearing a pair of sandals with a slightly higher wedge heal and they seemed more comfortable so another experiment with the ankle. There was a band playing in town, they do seem to have quite a lot of street performers.
The sandal was beginning to rub so I went into the shoe shop in town that has wider fit shoes.I got another pair of sandals with a heal almost the same size as the ones I was wearing. I didn't put them on straight away and made my way to the cliff top above the north bay. There I decided to change the shoes as I had a blister on my toe!
Managed to get back without any more damage wearing the new ones! It had been really miserable weather this morning, but this afternoon was warm and sunny. Lovely and clear looking over the bay.
There were still threatening clouds in the distance. Took a slightly closer picture of the bay as it was very clear today, nice sitting on the cliff as well as the wind had reduced to be a pleasant breeze.
Earlier in the day Sandy had given me the re-glazed plate, which is now fine to be given as the gift it was intended to be.
So far I have just had two paracetamol today and the ankle is no worse, so fingers crossed. Don't think I feel quite so tired either, but I guess I need to wait and see how it is when I get up tomorrow.
Posh tea, bands, new shoes, pottery, you've had a varied day, but judging by the pics some nice weather. I love the bay pics, particularly the first one as it looks like a postcard. I think you can get postcards printed, so you should have a look and get a few done to send out to family.
ReplyDeleteThat toe looks sore, I hate blisters, they can be very painful, but looking on the bright side it'll take your mind off the ankle :-)
Glad the plate turned out OK after a second trip to the kiln. I think they'll like it.
Yes, a varied day and feeling a little better in myself as well, long may it continue. Might try and see about postcards, a good idea.
ReplyDeleteThe plate looks great, I'm sure he will be delighted with it, Well Done! Your always so thoughtful for others.
ReplyDeleteA plaster would have bee n much cheaper than another new pair of sandals, but such ashame you got the blister. Hope you get some good result from the hospital when you go. Miserable for you.xx
Feeling less tired for knocking the tablets off, and don't think the pain is much different. I hope the plate is well received. x
ReplyDeleteI'm sure the plate will be a great piece for him to keep.
ReplyDeleteTablets can have that effect, rest sometime heals quicker.
Take care xxx
Will do, you too. xxx
