Mar. 3rd, 2025 04:13 pmMy MiL's visit went nicely, she's pretty easy to host, but still, I was glad to get in my pjs and chill last night after she'd gone home. With James being at work on Thurs and Fri, we stayed in those days. Well, she did, I had to walk to the doctors for my annual blood tests and B12 on the Thursday.
On Saturday we drove over the moors to Barnard Castle where it was market day. But amazingly, we got a prime parking spot, and it was sunny enough to eat outside. We also hit the honesty stall at the farm and came home with three trays of eggs and two bags of potatoes. One of the trays was for us, so plenty of eggs for scrambled eggs for a while.
Yesterday we went to the Italian restaurant on the seafront we like and had a Sunday dinner. Had a bit of a drive after before dropping my MiL off and going for cat litter and then home to a lobster bath and relaxing after reclaiming my recliner.
One bad thing that happened on Saturday night. James had another fall. We'd gone to bed, and he always takes his leg and splint off before doing so. For some reason, he decided to try and move the Alexa around on the chest of drawers in front of our bed, over balanced, bit hard, totally bent the hospital table that was there, knocked the drawers over, which catapulted the tv off the top, which smashed, as did an ornament I kept there.
Thankfully, apart from giving himself a fat lip he was fine physically, and insurance means we can get a new TV, but man, I did not need to hear more sounds like that.
Today was weight management class, and that went nicely. The topic was motivation and we had an interesting talk about what motivates people. The three level step was also there, complete a 8kg kettle bell to hold if you wanted to push yourself while stepping. I swear, that thing will start haunting my dreams soon!
