NEW BRITTO

 

Yesterday I found, and bought some new Britto.

I had planned on only getting ONE piece, but well.... the shop had just received a new shipment of Britto.  So I nabbed three of the new pieces, before they were gone.

Britto is quite popular, so first in and all that.

ABOVE:  The Little Mini on the left is a special one, released to commemorate Britto's 70th Anniversary.  The other two are new releases as well.  They are very cute.

Today I have plans to go down to the gym here at the village, and give the recumbent exercycle a go, then have a swim. Then a soak in the hot tub, before coming home again.

Sounds good eh?

11.21 am:  And I'm just back from the gym/pool.

I did 15 minutes on the Recumbent Bike, then 20 minutes swimming in the pool.  Followed by a 10 minute soak in the hot tub.  It was really nice.

I had three ladies to yak with in the pool, and G, one of my lovely immediate neighbours, to yak with in the gym.

Stew is home today.  His left leg is killing him.  He's had a sore knee for quite a long time, but now his entire leg is swelling up and hurting.

He has a Dr's appointment for next Monday, but I've just suggested he goes to Urgent Care to get it seen sooner.  

Right.... we did go to Urgent Care.  We didn't have to wait too long to see the Dr.  We really LIKED the doctor, he was so thorough, and friendly.  

He suspects either:

- Gout

- Infection

- Blood clot

So, Stew has a prescription to cover any and all of those possibilities.

He's had a blood test, and is now having an Urgent Ultra Sound.

Depending on the results, as to where to go from here.

Something funny.  The Doctor is asking Stew all these questions. 

  

-Have you ever had a blood clot?  NO said Stew.  In my head I'm like YES I have.

-Have you ever had a bleeding issue?  NO said Stew.  In my head I'm like YES I have.

-Have you ever had Oedema before?  NO said Stew.  In my head I'm like YES, all the time.

I can't remember the other questions, but for every NO Stew gave, I could have given a YES.  

It was a bit funny.

Next, we get to the Lab for his blood test.  And I'm like, OH, seeing as we are here, I might as well get the blood test I was supposed to have back in APRIL eh?

ABOVE: So yeah, we left there with matching sticky plasters.  Another thing that made us laugh.

Stew dropped me off at home, then went off for his ultra sound. 

'L' from the village was knocking on our door just as we arrived home.  He went around the back with me and showed me where I could put the new clothes line.

Lacy also arrived to drop off some papers she needs Stew to fill in for her.  (for her job)

It is now 2.45 pm, and I've just had me lunch.  Stew will get his when he gets home.  Which shouldn't be too much longer.

7.11 pm: His nibs got home just fine.  No results as of now.  Maybe we will get a phone call tomorrow?

I had a nana nap while he was out, didn't make me feel any more rested.

I am annoyingly bone tired, and do wonder when that will ever get better.

Right, I'm signing off for the day.

Catch ya tomorrow.
