rough day physically… woke up early with a very painful tummy which stayed that way… made it through the day at the office so I’d be there for an afternoon party for a colleague who was leaving…

ate very little because of the stomach stuff so am currently waiting for something to be delivered… I do love SkipTheDishes…

noticed this gorgeous sunset when my grandson and I arrived home… lovely to spend a few minutes enjoying it even when I was feeling sick…

and then my grandson shovelled… he is certainly much faster than his grandpa, lol…

always feel ready for company once everything is cleaned up out there…

was just out for a hot tub and watched the full moon for a long time… did not see any part of the eclipse though, or the comet…

missing my beloved who would have looked after me…

watched the Remembrance Day service from Ottawa this morning and spent some time thinking of my parents and my beloved’s father who were all in the services, and my son-in-law who is currently in the Air Force…

brought home my flowers from the office yesterday and have been enjoying them all day…

had some fun taking pictures this afternoon…

as the day has progressed my stomach has become more and more unhappy… 

really, back and stomach… enough…

hoping for a better day tomorrow…

was talking with someone recently about eating and exercise… they were noticing that eating and then going for a walk or doing any type of exercise is getting more difficult for them…

reminded me of when I really learned that lesson…

it was 2000 and I had travelled to Banff, Alberta to make a cd with a group of women from across Canada and the U.S… we had an amazing time… it was beautiful there, the studio was great, and the food was wonderful… we stayed midway up a mountain, walked, what felt like straight up, to get to the restaurant and then further up to the studio…

if we ate too much of the delicious food, we could barely make it up the hill to our destination… apparently your stomach needs to work after eating and your whole body is actively taking part in the process…

took us a while to figure it out and then we started to eat much smaller portions, lol… making the music was magical and something I will always remember…

this morning, after my smoothie, I walked around the garden, which, thankfully, is flat, and got a few pictures…

  

this is the last poppy with the sun shining through it…
 
this little sedge (I think) growing in the pond has a lovely “flower” on it… 

and the morning glories are just peeking through the soil… hurrah:-)…

  
the garden is moving along nicely…

bug…

been a bit of a bug going around… upset stomachs and headaches…

Thursday and Friday I was dealing with the stomach business… Friday I was feeling a bit better…
Saturday the headache started… went into the hot tub early because I was frozen…
ran out to pick up items for Sunday’s  birthday supper for my youngest…
slept for quite a while under lots of covers, and got up thinking I needed to eat, although I wasn’t at all hungry, but felt the need to eat to stay on top of the diabetes…
gathered a simple supper of cheese and veggies and some flavoured water…
next thing, I came to on my back on the floor… my glasses weren’t on my face and there was water and veggies all around me…
was able to get to the living room and called my daughter… she came right over and they found my glasses which were not broken, thank goodness…
they cleaned up the mess in the kitchen and brought up some supper for me…
it was a long night with very little sleep… and, it appears that I landed on my hip because it is sore… 
still had the headache and now my neck was sore, likely from the fall…
no appetite but have been forcing myself to eat…
my son-in-law came by in the afternoon on Sunday and picked up all the ingredients for the supper so they could make it at their place…
thought of my beloved and how he was always there to look after me when I was sick, bringing me whatever I felt like eating or drinking… 
made me think of all my friends who live on their own and have to navigate sickness alone… I really have been blessed…
hoping that I will feel better soon… 
 

oh ya, this is what I woke up to this morning…
