Day 5 Chemo 3 Rainy day and Roast Pork

1 minute read time.

 When we got up today it was pouring hard and then the sun came out, so I thought I would change the sheets on the bed and do the washing. Well it was a day of showers and ended up taking the washing in and then taking the washing out --so maddening so I dumped it all in the dryer and dried the washing so as to be able to put it away when aired. There were no birds or hedgehogs in the garden so I think we are in for a very cold spell as the animals are hiding away to keep warm. We were able to get a walk in with the dog, while the sun was out but it soon poured hard when we got back. I managed to sort the dustbin out for Monday collection.--I have never played around with my rubbish as I do now since all this recycling. Washing tins and yogurt pots just makes a lot of work doesn't it. We had a soup for lunch and I put the Joint of pork in the oven

 and made some fairy cake,s as well. Roast Potato's cabbage and carrots was the dinner for today but best of all the crackling on the pork. I also made some coleslaw with the cabbage and that's away in the fridge to go with cold pork tomorrow.

Louis full up

We have had a great meal and so did the dog, we are now relaxing with full bellies. I have done well today so I think I'm picking up again but I have really been drinking loads of juices. Tomato, Orange and Blackcurrent so I feel fine. Always tired and I had a nap this afternoon and trying to stay awake now but I'm happy today.

    Mmmm. lovely roast pork, i would rather

    have the crackling tho. Its been raining

    all day here in wales, more like a cold

    sleet snow on the way. Keep warm pet

    you dont want to be picking up colds.

    With Love Lucy Lee.

    ps I made a lovely warming ox tail stew,

    meat feel off the bone, my dog is full up

    as well, mind you its more expensive than

    a joint of meat now days. x

  • I seem to talking more and more about food --is that becaise Im lucky to have an appetite or is it trying to get rid of the bad taste of the chemo.

    I have bought a lovely coat from M&S to wrap up against the cold weather as I have some Rallying to do in the M/Home in the next few weeks starting this firday.

    Its great to be able to park up and meet friends though.

    Im going to buy loads of Rose plants today to give everyone of my friends a plant to put in their garden I think thats better than any pressie I can think off for Xmas.

    I will write about it in my blog tonight.

    Love Mavis
