Good morning everyone,well here i am now starting solid food(well if you can call pureed food solid) Yesterday i had mashed up salmon,pureed potato,carrots and runner beans and i have to say it was very nice. Not sure what i am having today as it is the start of rememberence weekend and we are out this morning to a parade and tonight hubby and daughter are at the last night of the proms. Sadly i am not going this time as i couldn't sit that long as my insides are still healing. Tomorrow it is Nuneaton for the parade and then Wednesday it is 11/11/11 and i can't miss this one as my Grace is carrying the union and is leading the parade and is the first woman to do in its history,so i am very proud of her. There are other parades they are on,but i am giving them a miss as i couldn't manage them all,i still have to remember that i am still chronically ill and i am getting the niggles that the diseases are rearing their ugly heads. Pain in joints mainly. I hope with the weight i am losing will help the pain in the long run. Hugs to all.xxxx

Your meal sounds like a banquet - I love mashed potato with salmon though. You are doing so well, like you say you are actually chronically ill but from what you write I'd say your temperament is so positive you're not going to let a 'little thing' like that stop you
I always prefer to go to our local war memorial at 11/11/11. It is a much quieter ceremony and for me more meaningful.
I bought a little bracelet the other day, a poppy on one side and on the other side it says 'Shoulder to shoulder with all who serve us' . Nice sentiment.
Good luck to your Grace for her big moment, I'll think of her when I see our union flag coming in.
(((Hugs)))) to you too
Thank you darling,i attitude is positive enough,but i wonder if i am expecting too much. I know i have said i want to be more mobile and hopefully be able to do more around the house,but it is not happening yet,so i am trying to run before i can crawl,always have.
I am hoping for a lot out of this op,but i think i am expecting too much,i hope not but i am going to keep pushing on. One thing i won't be doing is jumping on the scales too much.
Hugs.xxxxx
I think you know where you want to be - just keep your eye on that point in the distance, pace yourself and head for it, it will be easier some days than others but you know where you want to go and you've got a great attitude. Don't know you in real life but I can just see you spreading cheer wherever you go ☀️
I try darling i really do. Just got back from a parade and it is wet and wild out there.xxxxx
Tell me, then you wrap up and get hot and sweaty. x
Sylv, love your battling spirit. Your family must be so proud of you. Keep enjoying the food and rest.
Hope you all have wonderful Remembrance parades. Get Grace, what a star. How did she get to carry the flag?
Babs x
