I didnt think I had time to do a post today but a bit of a blonde moment has changed all that.
I thought the steak pie was in the oven cooking and had the root mash all ready and broccoli ready to go on and LSH says to me why is the pie sitting on TOP of the oven, dear? ah says I, I thought it was IN the oven - I didn't see it there.......oops.
well, its been a long physical day - is my excuse
I got up at 6am as usual, had a shower, made brekkie and walked with LSH to slateford road - he got bus to work from there and I continued walking to town - I had a meeting at 9am but thought I would go early and write up notes. We had left the house at 645am and I got to Centotre at 8am so that was pretty good going considering the state of the pavements (and no I am not blaming anyone for the state of the pavements, just stating the facts - I have no issues with the powers that be about the roads/pavements/snow/ice/grit whatever. its nature and we can't be expected to cover all eventualities. Plus whatever happened to us taking a bit of responsibility ourselves ?)
anyway had the first meeting and very nice it was too - two cappuccinos and good chat. walked up to the meadows after that to the Sick Kids for second meeting, also good then walked to tollcross for a bus home.
I am WELL CHUFFED with myself getting so much exercise in - goodness I feel it now though. my legs are aching.
I even cooked pancakes for Dawn and Elsie coming - and only ate one. was mighty good though.
Elsie is a wee treasure - she was a preemie and three months early and is doing so well. when she warmed up to me she was a right wee chatterbox.
lt will be nice to be back working with Dawn again properly. There is a lot our two charities can do to help local young people fighting cancer.
well, i had better go see how the pie is doing! a wonderful well hung and tender steak pie. honestly whoever came up with the name for that butcher is a genius. so she is!
