DAY 413

Can it be that many days i have been blogging? It seems as if i have only blinked since then.

Today the weather has changed so dramatically its been so windy and cold. Cant believe a few days ago we were basking in an Indian summer!! The weather is as fickle as men!!

I spent last night with my leg elevated in bed. All this time and i forgot Mikey's bed elevated electronically at the foot end! i don't think that part of the bed was ever used. The pillow end most certainly. So i was quite surprised that the ankle wasn't as painful this morning. I have been able to walk more comfortably anyway.

Work, nothing new very much the same as the past few days.

This evening went for my run, except i didn't!!! i cycled the route with Sue. Sure enough she wouldn't have gone if i hadn't, she did really well! Tim was pleased that i didn't run and said it made sense that i started to look after it instead of just putting up with the pain and risking a much longer time out. Anyway back to the Dr's tomorrow morning!!!

Tom seemed a bit brighter in himself and that made me feel a bit better. Still he does have so much to sort out what with his property in Doncaster etc. No doubt he will get around to making a decision about it.

Just been checking train times for Monday and it appears we have to catch a train just after 6am!!! will discuss that with Bev in the morning.

So i am sitting here now with the wind howling and the rain lashing against the windows. Let Duke out and the car port is full of leaves. Autumn is here with a vengeance.

How strange that misery appears to have gone on to other prey, i don't suppose i satisfy her appetite at the moment. Christmas is coming though and i do hope that this year we can remember how Mikey enjoyed the season. I know that by now he has usually begun his Christmas shopping, well he would probably be almost finished it. Mikey was always prepared and organised. Tom no doubt will be looking for things as the shops are closing on Xmas eve, and not bother with the wrapping!! Its bizarre that the tread of speech changes from past to present when we talk about him, forgetting he is no longer with us and yet in the next breath remembering he isn't.

Thinking about Mikey i cant accept that he isn't here. I talk about him and know that he isn't but the reality is that my heart wont accept and my mind does. I don't know its a really odd thing. I am sure that i will die still not having come to term with it. Still who's to say what the future holds. I wonder sometimes if I'm going slightly mad, in the words of one of Queens songs 'im only knitting on one needle' What a state of affairs, should i be lose in the world.

Well i better get the bed ready!!! and the ice pack and prepare to heal!!!  in the meantime i will try to post some more photos




Just thought i would add some pics of one of our running routes. Lucky to have such lovely scenery. The winter routes are not as scenic though!!

Well to bed and remembering that tomorrow is another day.........................
