Belated birthday wishes from me too!
Don't you look well in your picture?
What a triumph to be getting yourself back to health. Onwards and upwards!
Did you manage a trip out on your chariot Ruby? Hope you did and enjoyed it after all the time you have been confined to barracks. Keep us posted on your progress - we are all willing you on!
ruby how are you doing?. Hope you and Maggie are able to get out and about a bit more these days, although the weather here in London has been atrocious for the time of year. Lately it's been wet and windy, warm and windy or just plain windy 
Can't remember the last time I was able to sit in the garden in the sunshine. DGS and I got caught in a downpour yesterday and had to put the heating on to dry off his clothes before his mum came to take him home!! Love and (((hugs)))
This is what overdoing things looks like! ? Having a very sore, aching day today, going to have to take things a little slower and steadier than last few days.
I bought a bedside cabinet from the PDSA last week and this week I've painted it up. It's given me great pleasure but it's amazing how it has taken energy out of me just doing small things. I received today, these gorgeous stick on tiles for the coffee table, sideboard and to cabinet, to make it look more Moroccan. They are peel off sticker tiles and I intend to put them on the drawer/cupboard fronts. I will post pics once done.
I took my Maggie to the park, via nearly buying a car, on Thursday. I called at a place where my ex employer works now, at a food bank/church/helping people. She is a welfare rights officer. Anyway, she wasn't there but a woman was, who came to the door and initially was talking ok. After I got a word in to tell her why I was there and about the op, she asked if she could lay hands on me and pray for me. All this sitting on my scooter at the door to this place, down a back street. She did the prayer but I had visions of her inviting me in for a brew and of you lot never seeing or hearing from me again! She wanted to pray again but I said no then made my excuse to leave.
Yesterday, after Warfarin clinic, I went to the best cafe around for a long dreamt of fry up. I was just finishing eating when I noticed a guy kept looking at me. He was smiley and seemed ok (not attractive ok, but ok to chat to). He was a few tables away so I said he could join me if he wanted. He flew over the room! Before his derrière hit the seat, he had started on a story which I could not understand nor hear properly. His voice was in the range of a dog's hearing! I just nodded. Something about marriage ( I hope he wasn't proposing with me nodding away, I'm probably engaged now! ) But, as he was revealing his life story, bits of saliva built up on his lips, probably because he wasn't pausing for breath. Again I thought I was trapped. He offered his hand to formally introduce himself and fortunately, after about 15 minutes of me nodding like a 1970's tipping water ducking bird (ornament, very entertaining for a child), he said he had to go. On getting up he shook my hand again and told me that he would pray for me. ?♀️
So, I'm staying in today, locking all doors, taking the phone off the hook and hiding under my bed!
What the ? I thought I looked ok, not that I needed praying for! Why me?
Swanny Thank you for your message, it was lovely to hear from you. I know, I've had the heating on a bit too but then I have the window open and the fan on. Maybe I do need praying for, thinking about it, ?
I had gone to The Salvation Army cafe too, took Maggie with me. It's a good job she's so cute because she gets away with going in places she really shouldn't. Again, but more obviously this time, they were talking about faith etc. My beloved grandma took me to a meeting when I was a child and I've always remembered their kindness.
Anyway, I've a brew going cold so go and get it and . . . I'm off to Bible study! ?
Lots of love, ❤️X
You're a tonic. ruby, pleased you got back home in one piece. Just be careful out there. . (Did you ever come across Hill Street Blues, it was a catch phrase)
