The long dark tea-time of the soul

Friday.
 Finally a day in. And even then we had to pick up a few bits from Heron for the weekend. I did walk to the end of the jitty but I started to hurt so, in the chair I went. 
My morning routine now takes an hour, I do 10 minutes on the bike, 10 minutes on the bed yoga, 10 minutes of knee pain exercise and 10 minutes calf and ankle stretches, add dressing etc it's around an hour. I then repeat the knee and calf exercises and the biking at lunch and bedtime. Hopefully this will build up strength and balance so I can walk further. 
The rest of the day was fairly quiet. Ian bought the heavy shopping round for us early on, so we have plenty of water etc to get us through the impending heatwave. We aren't being snobbish, but the tap water here is disgusting, we wouldn't even give it to the cat even she has bottled water in her fountain. Most of the time it's cloudy and even when it runs clear it tastes very metallic yuk...
On that note the two chillers are doing their job and the bungalow is much cooler and we are sleeping better. 
Kev made me a couple more Memorydex boxes and we have a file on the Scan and Cut for making the cards now... Plus a friend has found me one of the spinners in America at their equivalent of a car boot, which she is shipping to me... Win win...
