Good and not so good

I had very little sleep was checking the time every few minutes. Sat up in the night to read for a bit and another time to use the iPad. I was unhappy though I was resting. I had squeeze thinks on my legs and counted hoops lon, fifteen seconds from one finishing to the start of the other and fifty seconds for the whole cycle. Has to be said that it wasn’t conducive to sleep! Sitting early this morning I thought that there was a Perspex roof outside, but realised it was an optical illusion made by the blind!
Took a selfie wearing the glamorous nightwear.
Then another one when I was washed and dressed.
The physio guy today was very happy with how ai was doing, said I was walking like ai hadn’t had anything done. Did the three stairs they have with a crutch and he was happy to discharge me and not see me again.
Had a really nice lunch, in fact I wouldn’t have said tuna and chees if ai had known the size of the portions!
Another thing I did in the night was a little sketch, using the metal pencil I bought in the Japanese shop in Sheffield. It has a special replaceable ‘lead’ and never needs sharpening and lasts for months! Well, that is the claim, so we will see.
Tina came to the hospital this afternoon and I was eventually discharge with a plethora of pills and sickness potions.
Another pic when I was ready to go.
Caroline sent me pics of the coffee pot I was so worried about, she loves it and thinks the customer will too.
The journey home put a bit of a damper on the day as I went to get in the car as ai usu ally do and jarred the leg so it was extremely painful and it isn’t in a hurry to settle down. Hopefully it will calm down by the morning.

  1. Sorry to hear your night wasn’t too good. But I suppose after having the leg “hacked about” it might be expected. Hopefully it’ll prove worth a rough night or two when you’re back to doing all the the things you like and miss.
    That does look like a Perspex roof. The brain is good at deceiving you like that 😊
    I love the sweatshirt 😂 Typical of you. Very appropriate.
    I think I’d be happy to go into that hospital as the food looks great. Plenty of it too. Would probably even keep a glutton like me happy. It’d be nice if you didn’t have to visit there again for a while though.
    I bet you cursed when to jarred the leg. Plenty of “flips” I bet 😊 You’ll have to be a bit more careful now.
    The coffee pot looks great. They’ll love it.

  2. Don’t think I did swear, trying too hard not to cry!
    On of the staff really chuckled when she read the t shirt.
    If the lady doesn’t want the coffee pot they will use it in the studio when doing afternoon teas.
