A Collection of Thoughts

Making Dinner

Tonight I made dinner - YAY says Richard who has been slogging it out for the last two weeks - I have contributed  with things like hmm sausages that will be fine or how about a toasted sandwich  LOL

but after a week of  hospital food ( grateful not to cook it and well balanced mind you - I was a bit over the steam fish ...)

I'm still not firing but I wanted something tasty and fast so ehen I went to pick the girls up this afternoon from their pay date we called into coles and grabbed some instant stuff

Pataks - Butter Chicken and Mc Cormack Risotto

 It was really good! I highly recommend it - well maybe not Thai and Indian together I'm sure there is some rule around that but really it was fast to make and tasty- w eliked it though :-)

So fast I even made some lemonade scones to have as strawberry shortcakes for zert . The girls were beside themselves and knew for sure Mummy was home - the neighbours were happy too as I had run out of SR flour and had to go borrow - they happily lent for a plate of hot strawberry shortcakes.

It was perfect timing as we were watching masterchef eating our scones watching the red and blue team not make them very welll!  Ours were yummy and umm failproof -  1 cup lemonade 1 cup  cream 3 cups flour mix together  cut with a glass bake for 15 minutes  serve warm with  nutella  cream strawberries and a dusting of icing sugar

Loving my hisptamtic app on my phone-  so simple to grab quick pictures and have it documented. That's half the fun.

Keeping quiet and sleeping mostly.

Today was difficult.

Hoping for a better day tomorrow.

The girls are heading to a friends for the day so that will be nice for them.

I plan to keep drinking tea watching dvds and napping.

Lots of tari stuff to catch up on. Thank you for all the lovely well wishes.

Taking Time

 via heartit.com

Hmm well this has been an interesting week- :(

Ive been on and off with asthma and a chest infection for nearly  a month had antibiotics and a day off here and there and just haven't been able to shake it  -in hindsight I just never took the time I needed - we don't though do we?

Last weekend was a shocker and so I finally went back to the Drs on Saturday who dosed me up with some steroids and sent me on my way - Monday I couldn't get myself to work so dragged back to the Drs who rushed me to hospital and I've been here ever since. 

Day 5 and a myriad of drugs and I'm still in but Richard has finally conceded and allowed me a laptop and an internet stick- mind you I dont have any of my files or access to emails only just intrenet connection. So I am still out of sorts. I have had my phone and Mel and Jilly have kept me sane with their texts :)

I can't say I have enjoyed the enforced rested be happier if we had managed to actually solved the problem but no luck so far I'm just as ill as I was when I came in. My Dr is on holidays now for two weeks so hes handing me to a new one who happens to be a  retired lung specialist so maybe he might have a new idea :)

I've been playing with my hipstamatic app on my phone so have some photos of my little stay on my flickr account :) You can see it here

Happy Holidays for those of you with school children:) My two will no doubt have a list of holiday things they want to do :)

I'm really hoping to be home tomorrow so please cross your fingers for me!!!
