Day 167: Surgeryland recovery and swarovski strap

My day started today with a catch up with dear neighbour Katie. We went out for coffee for a change, as a belated and first step towards celebrating her birthday. As ever, it was wonderful to see her.

Once I got home Robbie, Angus and I headed over to Darlinghurst. This time it was for Angus to visit the barber and for me to have a bone density scan in preparation for the hormone treatment. Osteoporosis is a potential side effect of this treatment so Dr Rachel wanted a base line measurement before I started. I'll get the results in a few days. Thankfully this was a completely painless exercise, and one more thing ticked off the medical list.

When I got home, over lunch I heard another one of those unwanted crunches - I realised immediately it was my temporary filing, which means I'm back to the dentist tomorrow for replacement until I'm in a position to have more extensive treatment.

I was feeling exhausted after all my adventures of the past few days so I headed to bed for the afternoon.

Robbie, Angus and I had a quiet night at home, with James still with cousin Olly.

Today I'm wearing a swarovski suede and chyrstal wrist strap the boys bought me for Christmas about 6 years ago. I love how it sparkles in the light - it's definitely more of a night piece.
