I have nothing today.
Just counting down the days until I make a start on my journey home.
MONDAY. Can't come soon enough really.
I just want to be home, getting life back to 'normal'.
THREE MORE SLEEPS HERE, then I'm officially on my way... I wish the days didn't drag so slowly.
Tomorrow will be a bit different though.
I will be going to the Sawtell Family Market, and helping out at the CWA stall.
Of course, I will no doubt get a chance to have a look around the market as well. That should be nice.
Mum loved going to this market.
So ME.
I bought a blue dress here, did I show you? It's still a bit 'snug' over the boobage, but should fit good soon.
I'm losing weight people! Not hand over fist, or lots of weight, but certainly a few kilos.
Feels good.
ABOVE: Steve is on a 'soft' diet, to give his bowel a chance to recover. Can you see how enthusiastically he's contemplating his dinner? lol
Last night they gave him a piece of steak, rice and carrots. Oh... and custard. Sound just wonderful eh?
He has his first infusion today!
If it goes well he might be allowed out of hospital tonight or tomorrow.
ABOVE: The little boys, taking advantage of their Dad not being in the bed. I've no idea what they are playing with.
Right, I'm off to drag me sneakers on and go for a walk. It's such a nice way to start the day.
ONWARD...
12.22 pm: I'm bored out of my brain.
I've been for a walk.
I've wandered around the garden.
Got garden photos.... cos I can.
ABOVE: I've been taking a photo of this tree fern for weeks. It's new fronds are growing so big.
ABOVE: The garden is SO GORGEOUS!I have not been doing much this morning! In fact, I've done nothing but sit and yak. lol
And... that's a wrap from me today. Catch ya tomorrow.
How is steak, rice and carrots considered a soft diet? I hope the infusion goes well so he can gtfo of the hospital. This has to suck for him. The girls look great! Who is the cute little canine in the background. No dog on the blog shall go by unnoticed.
ReplyDeleteGood Morning DCR 😊
ReplyDeleteI'm sure my top was Purple lol 😂 seems I may be a tad colour blind as well then lol 😂

It's bizarre how they give Steve red meat when he has bowel issues. Red meat is proven to be a carcinogenic and a major contributor to bowel cancer.
ReplyDeleteHope Steve gets better soon, poor guy looks miserable.
Hope you and Ron are having a fabulous day....
ReplyDeleteThe Girls say Hi Grandmar...
Love to you both Kelly.
He always looks miserable in photos because hes like his mother and dosnt smile. Lol sounds like hes getting infusion soon fingers crossed would be amazing if he got to come home today. We have all been pretty miserable with him in hospital the boys struggle with dad away. Hope ya have a lovely day its beautiful in the waikato today so hot. Xx
ReplyDeleteI think Chris will have a different opinion of hot once she gets home!!
DeleteMust have been a bloody long walk. Or did you get stuck on the hill?
DeleteHope you've had a good day regardless. :) :) :)
The girls look lovely in blue that’s for sure my mum calls them bush turkey too.........
ReplyDeleteStunning photos I love tree ferns.
Blondie
OMG I adore that turkey, although I have to admit: I would not want him in the house lololololol
ReplyDeleteLovely photos ... and cute video of the turkey. Good to hear that Steve has had his first infusion and can be home for the weekend. Only one week until you are back on NZ soil ... not long now!! Have fun at the market tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteThank you for telling us how the turkeys nest their eggs, I had no idea! And "can be as large as a small car"....that is insane and boggles my mind! Good to see Steve up and dressed and ready to go home. I send continued healing wishes his way!! Ky Girl
ReplyDeleteI hope Steve is on the mend. That turkey is a bold fellow. Have a lovely weekend. Enjoy these last few days before moving on. Safe travels.
ReplyDeleteI hope the Steve is feeling better soon :(
ReplyDeleteCool bird!
ReplyDeleteYou are seeing lots of new things on this trip. What are the chances you could leave Ron's a bit early and spend a few days on the beach somewhere before your next quarantine?
Congrats Steve! Hope this treatment keeps you safe at home for a good long while!
