I am still around - just dealing with stuff!
We had a great weekend - we visited my daughter and her husband's new house south of Bath on Friday/Saturday. It is really cute four bed terraced new house.
They lived in such a tiny house before, this is a much better space for them!
My husband has been making slow progress, but progress nevertheless and he is getting stronger again. But unfortunately the last few days he has had a bit of a complication with his bladder surgery and when he was in Bristol today he had to go back to the hospital where he had his ops. He has been admitted overnight and the surgeon is visiting him tomorrow morning to see what is to be done.
Sam the 14 yr old is slowly recovering from his pelvic fracture - we have to go back for an x-ray on that on 15th October, so he is still on crutches and he and my husband are all recovering from a nasty cold too! This is like a never-ending story!
I have read and re-read my email from Pete this morning and he has reminded me that even in stressful situations that I do have a choice in how I react to them. I must admit my stress levels rose when my husband rang me and told me what was happening, because I am down here in Glastonbury and he is up in Bristol.
Instead of out of control eating I went and bought my dail newpaper and a magazine on health and fitness and came home. Then I did a twilight cycle on the levels - safely wearing a high vis top. I felt better for it too! It dissipated some of the excess adrenaline and cortisone I had whizzing around my body.
I will keep my mind on my desired outcome of being healthy and toned and slim and behave accordingly.
My first tool to concentrate on is to drink more water.
I will take things carefully and deliberately slowly to rewire them back into my brainbox - oh yes I will!
I know one thing I will be pleased when all the health issues are resolved and I am so grateful they are not life-threatening!

I hope this is the final scene in this play and it all settles down in the next few weeks!
We have booked to go to Portugal at the end of October over the half-term, I do hope this is not going to prevent us from going :(
My best wishes to you for the beginnin g of your new job at Hobbycraft, I think you are going to enjoy it tremendously!
Love and Hugs
