I promised myself that I would write on here more often and haven't done so.  I often think of things to say and 'mentally' write them without coming near the pc.  It does me good to write even when I think I have nothing to say!

I'm stitching a bit again and am enjoying it fully.  I can only do a bit because of the eyesight.  Hope it will improve when I get new glasses.  I'm having an eye test on Tuesday.  Chel went with me yesterday to pick out new frames.  Although my prescription had changed last year I didn't buy new specs then so will surely need to this time round. 

Also went for a hearing test last week.  At last.  But because the nice man found lots of wax in the right ear he couldn't do the test - it would not have been an accurate result.  Tomorrow I see the nurse to get the old ear syringed now that I've been using the olive oil for almost a week.  I'll see if the surgery does hearing tests. Because I have to pay several hundred pounds for my glasses I can't pay several more for a hearing aid.  Getting my teeth sorted is the next priority and that has to come before ears. Bank robbery is stating to sound like a good hobby.

My weight is up about three pounds but that varies from day to day as is normal.  I am happy enough that I haven't gained it all back.  I am also very aware of each time I want to eat.  I try to drink more instead of always eating and am normally making better choices.  Go me!

The weather is beautiful again today so we've planned to cook our dinner on the barbecue.  I might add a lamb chop to the rest of the food to see how it comes out.  I do get tired of burgers.   Yesterday in town I went to O'Neills and had a great ham sandwich and side salad - how yummy.  Really delicious.

Now to go settle back down with the weekly luxury - the Sunday papers and a nice hot drink.
