spent the day in bed today
frustratingly, i took one tablet and dropped another (condensation on the glass, and SUPER slippy tablet)
the one i thought i dropped was not the one we found (Jo went straight into police mode and "conducted a thorough search of the area" - which helped relax me a bit)
so, a quick call to the ward to check what i'm supposed to do.......it seems i probably dropped my blood thinner tablet, but since a double dose would put me at severe risk, and taking a double beta blocker would put me at slightly less risk, the cardiology ward pharmacist (super nice woman) told me to do nothing, but rest all day and carry on this evening with my meds as normal
hence, i'm back in bed for a day of rest - with such a lovely day I had planned for a lovely brisk 30 minute walk...........
........there's always tomorrow
and what have i learned? drink from something with a handle, and make sure i wake up properly prior to taking the tablets, even if Jo is watching me

@MaryMamuzich so do we ๐
In 40 days we're moving home.
An expected move (our house is a max.12 month let) But God dovetailed that move with Jo being headhunted for a job (5 1/2 hrs drive north) and the timing is nothing short of God inspired. Even her security vetting came through at the perfect moment
We had the new home confirmed last Friday. We move 21st January. Jo starts her new position 31st January.
The goodness and favour of God upon this litttle family is mind blowing and overwhelming!
The miracles we've already seen are more than I squeeze into 1,000 characters (first attempt was nearly 4,000 characters long)
But, a big money issue was solved before we needed to ask a question. We only had one house we could view, and beat all other applicants to apply. Our previous landlord had to be asked for a reference - new agent described it as evil and disgusting. But God had already put things in motion to thwart that attempt close a door God had already opened.
And the BerryBunch studio V3.0 is real!!!
Some more scriptural encouragement for you on a Monday morning
We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed. We are perplexed, but not driven to despair. We are hunted down, but never abandoned by God. We get knocked down, but we are not destroyed. Through suffering, our bodies continue to share in the death of Jesus so that the life of Jesus may also be seen in our bodies.
2 Corinthians 4:8โญ-โฌ10 NLT

Some comfort for you on a Monday morning!
Andy B
All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us. For the more we suffer for Christ, the more God will shower us with his comfort through Christ. Even when we are weighed down with troubles, it is for your comfort and salvation! For when we ourselves are comforted, we will certainly comfort you. Then you can patiently endure the same things we suffer. We are confident that as you share in our sufferings, you will also share in the comfort God gives us.

@tanjaostman @bethany @Olamide
Do you mean because we do things correctly over here? ๐ ๐คฃ
@tanjaostman @bethany @Olamide I'm with Bethany!!!!!!! ๐
I drove for a week or so in Spain once - such a strange thing to be on the wrong side of the road
Left is correct = right
Right = wrong
Wait, I'm confused...what were we talking about again
Andy B
@tanjaostman @Olamide well see now "wrong" is very subjective .. my question is why is everyone else driving on the wrong side of the road when we're over here driving on the correct side of the road? ๐ค

@Olamide love it

First meal I've cooked for family since October
Chicken pasta, with a tomato sauce (reduced by me ! ) And strong cheddar grated over the top, allowed to melt in the heat with the lid on
Pretty chuffed
Cos I didn't feel strong enough to stand for long enough yesterday to do that.
But I started by making Jo poached egg on toast for a well earned breakfast in bed
Feeling it right now! But I've got a nice dinner to enjoy.
Jo did the chopping (obviously) and strained the pasta (safest option)
Feeling good to have done this after so long not doing it, after SO many years of always doing it
