I went out for my medical. Actually the doctor that did it was really nice – a single handed GP, at some pains to chat and make me feel comfortable. So although it is inevitable my fatness will bump the premium, he was happy to say I seemed fit and healthy, and he couldn’t see any other risks.
Got home to find the life insurer had sent me a letter as I hadn’t full disclosed my health, could I tell them more about pv bleeding and my IUD!! well, these days they should be called an IUCD or in my case Mirena. I have written back stroppy letter that it was for contraception, no pv bleeding [no menstruation with breastfeeding] and therefore no problem to disclose.
While I was out, our vendors rang to complain bitterly about move date, as we had led them to believe we would want to move in early April. WE DO!!!! chris rang solicitor, as I am prob feeling a bit too incendiary to be allowed! Hopefully exchange will take place, cos we have agreed to date – as if there were any choice! it may add 250 to removal costs – damn and blast.
Did some general book reading [literacy] and playing with SB, also tried out the easier bits of maths on Joe the Dragon [as most above where she is] [maths]. We then planted up our sprouted capsicums, and sowed the tomatoes [natural science]. The weather was being v variable, so we had discussions on storms, clouds, rainbows etc whilst doing this. [as we had all of above]
We found some of the older veg boxes in garage, so SB rooted around for ingredients [she can recognise veg!!] and found onions, potatoes, carrots and cauliflower. We pulled some of the garlic from the garden [it is last years bulbs left in too long, and going for it again, so at the moment kind of garlic leeks!] and made a nice veg curry. SB liked using the pestle and mortar for the spices]. Cooked it in the one pot with the rice so a biryani, as saves on washing up! [domestic science]
We also made some of mums card – it is on cold card and a beach scene using tissue paper, so far so good! Was supposed to have been finished after tea, but evenets overtook us. [art]
Unfortunately, while I was feeding BB she was riding bike on drive [PE], and went head first down approx 1 foot drop onto next doors drive, so sports a number of egg shaped bruises on forehead, eyebrow, and v sore nose. Sorry for self and in pain, but not obviously concussed. We retired to cbeebies on the tv, ate our curry, had a nice bath and to bed [chris doing that at the mo].
I’m watching the what the ancients did for us out of the corner of my eye, and enjoying it. I think I need more wine and chocolate this eve, but my blood pressure remarkably low [100/70] considering the steam that keeps coming out of ears!
thought of the day: happy birthday MUM!! and baby William – see post below
The Spin OK, yes, it is a total annoying PITA what’s been happening on the house move front, but on the brightside we sold our house quickly for the asking price, we’ve bought a lovely house, one of main contenders, for good price (relativley), we will ahve got it all done and dusted before May, TBH, when the house went on the market, I really doubted that would be so. we are just about to exchange contracts (assuming it didn’t happen this afternoon and they haven’t told us) – somethign we’ve been waiting for for few weeks now. and in 3 weeks time they will becoming tomorrow to start packing and loading the van…….
its annoying it doesn’t have the F on it! [the chris that is]
yeah, I am calming down, but it is me that has to go to work 4 days after move, and on call 1st weekend, so feel i don’t have chance to enjoy being there before full grind of fulltime work – which i am less than enthusiastic about!
