Today is Sunday 14th February

Posted on February 14, 2021 by pensitivity101

Happy Valentine’s Day to you all. Hope those of you who celebrate are warm and rosy in more ways than one.

Hubby is upset because he hasn’t been able to get me a card. I haven’t made one for him either, but having him home far outweighs all that. We’re not romantics as a rule, but have our moments, and he’ll buy me flowers for no reason at all. I couldn’t do a special meal today anyway as he can’t have anything solid for a month, though I do have two tubs of ice cream in the freezer now!

We have to be at the hospital for 2 pm today so that Hubby can have a tummy jab and collect his prescription for the rest. This morning he has managed some sloppy porridge and two cups of warm tea. We have our little blender, so can whizz soups etc. The key is little and often, which we can do with little inconvenience. It will just be boring!

Not much on the agenda obviously today. Hubby has received his invitaion for his Covid jab, so we have gone to our contact in the MPs office and asked for his details to be put forward for a local appointment, and also asking if I can be done at the same time. The age group now is 65 to 69 plus the clinically vulnerable. I am a cancer survivor after all, and a diabetic, but won’t be 65 until May. We shall see.

I’m tired, as although we slept last night,  it was a restless sleep. Too much chocolate gave me an acid stomach, so my own fault and I had a sore throat through singing in the car. It took a while for Hubby to get comfy too, but the good news is that everything is clear and the blockage has been removed completely.

Weigh in today, and as expected I’ve gained but it was only a pound so I am still in target.
All being well I can apply myself to plan again now (it’s gone out of the window really since Wednesday) and pull it back next week.

Keep safe everyone.

About pensitivity101

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes! We have recently lost our beloved dog Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney, and now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of my GSD so had hers done too. From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives. We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.

    That’s good your husband is comfortable and no pain. I hope that is it now and I hope the month goes quick for him so he can start solid food again. I know it can be boring for sloppy food as I have had soft food for a month.
