Windy Wednesday

Another bit of good news day - he's off the steroids! Still feeling amazingly well except for a bit of fatigue in the early afternoon.  No matter, he can sleep if he wants to.

We had another big day out - certainly taking advantage of the cheap Public Transport here - we caught a train to Penrith and I had my hair done.  It was looking pretty desperate so I was so glad when Jill's hairdresser said she'd do it for me!  I also went to the doctors as my blood pressure, which is always perfectly normal, suddenly jumped to 180/111.  Anyway, I thought I'd better check it out even though I thought it was probably just a bit of stress lol.  He sent me for some blood/urine tests and I'm to go back on Monday.  But.......I took my blood pressure this morning and it was back to normal so probably a false alarm.  Just as well as I didn't want Jill to have 2 invalids in the house!

We've had a normal day today, hospital and then home.  We were going to take a ferry or the train to Darling Harbour for lunch, but the weather is very wintery so we decided to come straight home.  My turn to cook dinner so we are having Irish Stew and Colcannon, followed by caramelised strawberry crepes with cream and ice cream.  Yum.

Jill and Alistair have a break from us this weekend as we are going up the mountain to David and Jenny for Fathers Day weekend.  More news about that tomorrow.  If we had been home, it probably would have been Crams Farm with friends and neighbours so, if you are reading this blog, we hope you all have a wonderful time whatever you are doing.  We miss you all.
