slept fairly well last night considering how sore my knee was… woke up yesterday morning and it had a bit of a twinge… went to yoga and might have twisted it…

last night I iced it for a while and did wonder if I’d be able to walk on it this morning…

as I rolled out of bed carefully I was reminded of how difficult it was to maneuver after my surgery… and how much I missed George being there to look after me…

the knee was fairly sore but as long as I was on it, it was pretty good… decided I could do a bit on the treadmill but I walked rather slowly…

  
mainly sore when I stand up after sitting for a while… makes me limp a bit when I start moving, lol…

plan to take it easy for the next few days and get it back into shape…

so tonight I treated myself to fish and chips… been craving them for a couple of weeks…

  
sure do love SkiptheDishes… it was delicious and I have half left over for tomorrow’s dinner…

happily discovered that I had the short form census so got that completed in about five minutes…

surprise…

this morning had to take this picture as I stepped out the door…

  
that was snow on the ground, sigh…

I’ve been waiting all week for tonight’s fish and chips from The Captain’s Table… 

stopped at Polo Park to pick up a few items and as I left ordered supper from SkiptheDishes on my phone… got home, prepared some veggies, and the food arrived…

 
less than 30 minutes… great surprise… and it tasted great too…

much better day today… still a bit emotional first thing, but by the end of the day was feeling more settled… really does surprise me how strong emotions can be, even after all these years…

these orchids remind me of my love and how he took care of me…

  
he would surprise me with orchids all the time…

treat…

big girl pants, Clay Oven, Easter, empathize, hot cross bun, SkipTheDishes, thali, treat

up early… of course I would be on a day off, lol…

treated myself to a homemade hot cross bun made by one of my friends… every time I eat one my blood sugar skyrockets… must be the candied fruit because she uses whole wheat flour when she makes them… this was the last one so there won’t be any more temptation…

spent time thinking of friends who are struggling… sad that you can’t really empathize with someone until you have gone through a similar situation… life can be very painful…

watched tv and then did a few chores around the house… tidied the dining room getting ready for Easter dinner with the kids and put a few shells I found into the table… still haven’t found the ones that were in it before Christmas, sigh…

decided to treat myself to supper and ordered thali from Clay Oven through SkipTheDishes…

  

it was delicious and I ate every bite… 

hoping for a sleep-in tomorrow…
