Home Alone

Well it's been a busy weekend in the Pegram House. Joss went off to Cardiff for a friends stag weekend. I have to say I was quite anxious about him going away, Joss over the last 3 years has become my security blanket, and I have to admit I felt quite vulnerable on Friday after he left and I was home alone with the cat.

That was until my lovely family turned up, Natalie came round for Pizza, and Mum & John turned up for a cup of tea. The cat decided she was going to spend the evening plonked on Aunty Natalies lap.

Saturday morning was my 4 weekly visit to Hammersmith hospital in London for the clinical trial drug i'm taking (i'm going to do a seperate blog about my thoughts on clinical trials). Mum came with me, it's usually Joss who comes with me but as he was in Cardiff Mum came. Rather suprisingly we had a lovely day, we did lots of chatting, and Mum got to ask the lovely Dr Skinny Jeans loads of questions that me and Joss never seem to think about asking (she described Dr Skinny jeans as easy on the eye!).

We then decided that we'd stop off at John Lewis on the way home. I didn't buy much but my main weakness is nail varnishes. I bought 2 new sets of Andrea Fulerton colour layering systems one blue & one purple, I could have bought loads as they had some really nice colours. The christmas decs in John Lewis weren't that good this year so didn't buy any.

Spent some time over the weekend on my other weakness...... watching films. Watched The Young Victoria on Friday, I love that film not least as a lot of it was filmed at Blenheim palace which is just down the road and to which I usually have an annual pass to. Friday evening I watched Made of Honour which was a typical easy watching RomCom (Natalie said I couldn't watch Stardust.... I had only watched it a week ago).

Saturday nights film was The Adjustment Bureau, which I thought was really good, and made me think..... what if our lives are planned out and we don't have a choice what happens..... well I for one would say with all the rubbishness in my life with my health, whoever is making the choices isn't doing such a bad job. You may be suprised by this but I'd rather have this disease, my family and my husband, rather than have perfect health and nothing else.

Best sign off now it's time for Stictly results :-)

  1. Love your comments about family and husband. If more people thought that way, the world would be a better place! I'm working with Natalie tonight and am going to ask her about Dr Skinny Jeans!
