Morning Ladies
Well we are home and once again I have eaten tooooooooooo much
Jasmine is just getting ready for bed so will have to get up in a minute to help with the brushing of the teeth.
We went into a little "new age" shop this afternoon and Jasmine saw a little hanging wind chime, it has a rainbow at the top of it and she just loved it, it is now hanging up in her bedroom. She is very pleased with it.
Yes sweet I have had surgery. I had a total knee replacement. I fell down some stone steps about three years ago and the doctor said I was fine. Well, I wasn't and the knee blew up about eighteen months ago and last December I had a key hole type surgery to "fix" it but there had been too much damage done and the cartelidge had done a lot of damage to the arterial nerves so he could not fix it and so I was walking bone on bone. On 12th November last year i had a total knee replacement and The girls have been helping me through it. Very painful, and still is. Tiggs farther had the same operation so Tigs was able to help me with "how far I was up to, I still have to use a crutch and can't go far.

y to bore you Red, she has had to "listen" to my moans since the operation Sweet
Red, I have tried and tried to get onto "multiply" it just says my I.D. name and Password do not match. Then there is another annann29 or am it them then say the pass word does not match and so round and round I go! I am desperate how do I get on. Can't be left out.
I will certainly try your "chocolate pudding" Sweet. I like prunes sounds pretty good to me
What a shock for Kens brother Red, Diabetes is very serious especially Diabetes no one. Thank heaven that they got him to hospital and I guess they were able to stabilise him there. Bob will now have to follow a special diet won't he? Actually it can be a real wake up call and for some people they start to live their lives very healthily. I read in our paper over here that diabetes is getting more and more common and a lot of young people are getting diagnosed with it. It must be our bad eating habits.
Sweet you certainly have the right idea, especially taking your own food with you when you go to other peoples. I would love to do that sometimes, especially when i know that the food is going to be particularly fatty and full of sugar.
A treadmill Red, I have always wondered if that would be a good idea, especially as you could go for a walk and never have to leave home, so it would be practical in summer and winter. Have to give some thought to that, it could go where my exercise bicycle stood, (the one I hardly used) So sold it last year. I will wait and see how my "hopalong" type walking progresses
I am looking forward and yet not looking forward to seeing my physiotherapist next Tuesday morning after we get back on the Monday. I don't want the pain, but do want to know if I am at the right level I should be now. I feel that I am not improving and wondering if I am not working hard enough. Then I am told it takes at least three months and even six months so then try to be patient! Me patient, thats a laugh. I want to get up and "do" things. It is awful to keep having to sit whilst others do the "work" you feel so useless.
Some "bright spark" suggested that it was a lesson for me to stop doing so much for other people and rest!! sounds good, but if that was the case all "us" mothers would be made to rest wouldn't we?
Don't know exactly what happened this morning, I was up in the bedroom and Bill and Jasmine had just come in from going up to the dairy for the morning paper, but it appears that a Siamese cat walked in this morning and scared the life out of Lucy and Tashia-Bill shooed it away but Lucy has hidden in the bedroom all day and has forsaken her little hiding place and the birds have been able to eat away happily without her stalking them. Tashia got over her fright quite quickly but did not go far!!
The "wasp" eradicators came back again to-day, with an extra man helping, When they came a couple of days ago they did a good job, but there were still a lot of the wasps still circling where their hive was, but this evening there does not seem to be any left thank good ness.
We have had a very hot day, then suddenly the heavens opened up when we were in the village supermarket and the noise on the roof was deafening and the thunder roared then it was all over again just as quickly. Funny weather we are having-blame it on global warming
Tracy and her husband are going home to-morrow, she popped in at lunch time. She has bought herself a really nice bathing suit, very pretty. She has been swimming in the Lake a couple of times. Simon loved it up here and went out in David's boat, they did not catch any fish, I think the fishermen think the Trout have all gone to another lake!!!
We are off to Rotorua for the Day to-morrow, I love looking round the shops there and we will See David during his lunch break. He usually takes an extra long one when we do that. He has been back to work now for a couple of days. The holiday is nearly overy for us now too Everyone is going back to work. Bill will be back next Tuesday. Jasmine does not start back to school until 3 February so she still has a nice break still.
I better go now, Jasmine keeps getting up and going back to bed, the bedroom is probably a bit hot for her but she won't have the window opened even a little bit, she has her little night light on, up here it is a little Turtle light. I have tried just opening the little window on the side wall, but she knows its open even though I pull the blinds down over it!! The big window she would know anyway. Still I will just go kiss her goodnight YET again!
Enjoy your day everyone
