A Busy One

I’ve just this minute hung up from a 90 minute phone conversation with my sister, Squirt.

My day began at 1.20am when I was woken by an almighty thud as Adoring Husband hit the floor. We spent the next 20 minutes trying to get back up!

He’s fine.

His alarm went off at 4.45am which was my cue to get up and ride to the shops to work in his place.

From there, I rode to get our coffees before returning home.

At 7.30am, we realised there were no pain killers in the house and I had forgotten the Himalayan salt, so I pedalled back to the shops and stopped briefly at The Seat of Knowledge to see the boys.

I cut up a bowl of watermelon for AH to munch on while he watched iview on his iPad while in bed.

I lay in bed for a little while and remembered that I had to mail one of my calendars out today and I needed to take some shells and string to The Motivator at the shop, so I climbed back onto my trike at 10am and began riding in the oppressive heat back to where I had already been twice today.

I spent about 30 minutes with TM before Returning home to prepare some lunch for AH.

After lunch, I had to prepare the dog food, so I spent 30 minutes in the kitchen cooking that up as well as putting lamb shanks in the slow cooker for our dinner.

I attempted to nap at 2pm but the psychotic dogs woke me early because they were hungry, so I fed them.

At this point AH was able to stand upright and suggested that he drive me back to the shops to get our afternoon coffee, which we did.

AH sat in his lounge chair while I finished preparing our lamb shank dinner and we were able to have dinner together.

The weather was too miserably windy to go in the pool, so I tried to stay inside in the air conditioning for the majority of the day. I did come outside to clear all the Bali grass from near the pool area. The wind has been crazy and the grass is snapping off the roof of the hut causing a big mess.

AH seems to be marginally better than yesterday and we’ve been using the TENS machine on his back as well as rubbing Do Terra Ice Blue onto the affected area, taking mild pain killers and eating very well.

This evening I had to replace and hammer the pegs in the ground for our Christmas dragon on the front lawn before he blew away.

I’ve spent 90 minutes on the phone with my sister and now have to clean the kitchen before bed. It will be another early morning working for AH so there will definitely be a distinct lack of sleep for this little woman again tonight.

So that has been my pretty full day.

Need sleep 😴

Nite all.
