when all they need is one reason why they can” ― Martha Graham
Fairly decent sleep for once, with only a couple of awakenings that I remember. Manage to sleep until 8:30 and wake with the head free of pain but the body is hurting. More so, the joints are all hurting Bugger. Get up and do my little old man routine of shuffling around. Go and take my morning meds and have a couple of pieces of toast. The nausea has been under control some what the past 2-3 days and I am forcing myself to eat things when I can so at least I have fuel in the tank which is helping. Need to pick up the pace getting ready, as we need to be at English Park for the Mainland Football Prizegiving, as Lachlan’s team won their division and are getting their trophy and certificates.
Get our act together and leave about 15 minutes later than we should have. Get there and wait for the presentation, all done, off home again then. Last footy act of the season. Get home and get lunch ready as Dylan, Carla, Lars and Halen in town are coming over for a visit and lunch. Sue prepares a pretty awesome spread, yum. Dylan, Carla and family turn up and we have a great catch up, enjoyable lunch and go for a wander up to the park to kick a ball around. They head off about 4:30. It was fantastic to see you all and meet the new addition to the family. Halen is very cute.
SIt down for a bit a s we’re heading out tonight for dinner at the Booths, and I’m hurting all over, so need some meds (steriods again) and a sit down. I have basically resigned myself to the fact that I may need to take steriods constantly now. Which if is the case then I am going to have to work out how to control the brain storming and the appetite – hang on, the nausea takes care of the appetite, just got to deal to the brain storming in the middle of the night. Just thinking of that, I might know a way – drink enough Jim Black and it cures all. Right will try it, maybe not tonight though. Decide to start work on the blog seen as we’re out tonight and it might be late when we get home. Can’t disappoint the punters!
Get ourselves ready and walk to the Booth’s. Having a busy weekend so far. I’ll be needing a rest by Monday! Have a great fun evening catching up seen as I haven’t seen Greg or Wendy for about 5 weeks. Loved the Curry Dude. And the Choc Mudcake was awesome Kayla. And a couple of Juim Black SMall Batch goes down well too. Not a late night either as wearing down and aching everywhere. Sorry guys Walk home then and take my evening doses then head for bed and rest. Been contemplating taking a sleeping tablet but don’t want to ruin Sunday so resist it. Hope everyone else has had a fun and fantastic day. Anything exciting to report out there? Right off to bed time now. Keep cool till after school! Catch ya tomorrow.
Kia Kaha.
