Consequently I’ve been wandering around with a painful leg as well as a pained expression on my face. No walking as its been aching too much and I jump each time it spasms and sitting for a time here on the computer chair hasn’t done it any good either hence the lack of posts.
To go along with my miserable demeanour I’ve been feeling a bit on the big side
We are off on another trip in a couple of months – a cruise this time – so even though it might seem a little early to think about what clothes to take I’ve been going through my wardrobe.
The other month I came across some really good websites showing what can go with what – mix and match – actually called wardrobe capsule dressing these days- I thought it might cheer me up and help me forget about the dreaded pain in the leg – trouble was I discovered some of my homesick kilos have returned to take up residence again and some of my clothes are a fraction on the tight side:((
Must go as this is about as long as my leg will let me sit on hard chair – its rather awkward trying to type standing up – will tell you about these sites another day

It is terrible to become incapacitated because of an unusual twist or turn. It only takes one lift or one bend or one misstep and suddenly my life changes for a few days of healing. Enjoy your upcoming travel and be careful:)

My right leg gave a sciatica spasm in sympathy as I read this. Dear Cathy, you have my full sympathy and understanding. It is too early here for tomatoes and beans but I am planning which to plant at the end of October. I haven't forgotten our shores will be graced by yourself and your dear Dh the following month.I hope your spinal nerves settle down fast and the plants grow well. As for clothes I think layering could be the answer as the "4 seasons in one day" or maybe across one week of travels effect could be likely.Send care and huggles to you all, with added head scritches for Kiera,Michelle xxx (yes, Zebby is under his battered quilty, again …..)

Your flowers are lovely. To think you have so many that they are escaping your property. Mine have a long way to go to escape the flower beds.
