The week gradually nosedived ðĪŠ. I had to drive Pip to see a specialist physio as she is experiencing additional complications with her connective tissue disease, this necessitated a two hour round trip interspersed with a 90 minute appointment. The drive back (motorway) was horrendous and I could barely formulate a sentence once home.
Friday saw a planned visit from Dave’s friend and even though I made the soup and scones sitting down, my heart rate still shot up to 120bpm. However the evening time was worse with a resting heart rate of 110 lying down climbing to 132 moving around. Hmm I think my body was trying to tell me something - overdid it perchance?!!
Saturday morning I was greeted with this information:
So I did just that and spent most of the day on the sofa looking like this:
This evening we have declared it a TV dinner evening and Dave and I are settling down to watch ‘Foyle’s War’ on YouTube which I can highly recommend:
I have a catch up with my GP tomorrow afternoon and hopefully a prayer catch up with a friend in the morning, health permitting. Hope your weekend has been a good one x

Praying, San! For improved health, deep rest, fewer physical challenges all 'round!ðð―ðð― And for peace and strength in the meantime!
Thanks Penelope it’s always God’s grace that gets us through ð. Like you I’ve been round the block more than a few times with this chronic health malarkey and it’s one step forward two steps back ð. We get there in the end though, I hope you are doing ok ❤️
Oh, were the roads bad or was there too much traffic? I also get very exhausted from driving, especially in heavy traffic. I am so sorry about your ongoing heart problems. Have you ever tried Hawthorn? I don't know if that would be helpful for your case, but you could ask your doctor. Did Dave enjoy his friend's visit? What is "Foyle's War" about? I hope that tomorrow will be successful!
I'm just getting a chance to catch up with some of your posts.
I'm sorry you've been so sick. I've been getting lots of headaches/migraines with our hot summer weather. Sounds like we can both do with some rest time.
Oh yes...Foyles' War! A good choice!
Hope you are feeling better soon. xx
I'm glad you rested with Poppy and I hope you're feeling a little better. I also wonder what Foyle's War is . . and is it streaming, or a TV station?
Hello again, you and Poppy look so cozy . . and the food looks delicious. I hope Pip is doing alright too. xoxoxo (And I meant to write . . is Foyle's War on a TV station?)
I'm glad Poppy was able to keep you company in your rest- your dinner looks really tasty!x
