Pop! I needed a splash of colour today so chose the fabulous candy pink resin squares Meg (Days 52 & 66) sent me recently. They're a happy colour - my favourite - and brightened up my mood, just as Meg intended I'm sure.
I woke feeling miserable this morning. I'm completely sick of myself: my dry, claggy mouth; puffy watery eyes; blotchy skin; sore nails; scratchy voice; achy limbs; tiredness and lack of concentration. It feels like this treatment has taken forever and will never end. Robbie, sympathetic and supportive as ever, thought hard about how he could buck me me and did what only a very good man would do - cajoled me out of bed and took me shopping. Having had an entire year off buying any new clothes last year, and barely gone near a shop this year, it was a treat. The traffic was ridiculously heavy getting there, but my foray was fun and productive - a nice new jumper, top and warm jacket. Retail therapy worked!
After coming home for some lunch, Rob and I had a nice walk in the sun, then home for an afternoon snooze on the couch.
To keep my buoyed, Rob made roast lamb for dinner. Yum! I'm making progress with my new puzzle too. I really shouldn't complain, I'm a spoilt woman.
