On Friday afternoon I saw my GP and we discussed the best way forward for my A. Fib in the light of my ECG results. He prescribed Dapaglifozin - a Diabetes treatment - as it was known to improve the blood flow in A. Fib patients. The side effects . . . sugar in urine can cause UTI's and it also causes you to wee more. Just what I needed to hear with a window seat on the outward flight . . . I will definitely have to ask for a change of seat if poss . . .
This rainbow was SO intense that I stopped in a layby to take photos. Ah well, you will just have to imagine the depth of colour, especially the pink.
The autumn colours were beautiful as I set off through the mountains to Tam's. Lots of Silver Birch trees which had turned a lemon yellow and when these were set against the tawny bracken, they really stood out in the landscape.
This is Gilfach Nature Reserve. Tam and I have done some lovely walks here. There's one the other side of the road that I noticed yesterday and would like to do before I'm too decrepit.
I had a lovely day at Tam's. They needed me to keep an eye on Rosie so they could get all the furniture and "stuff" away from a back wall so they could put up shelving. The mission was a success.
Rosie is so funny - if anyone sneezes, she says "Bless you". She had my phone at one point and I asked for it back: "No. MINE!" She has some more new expressions - Yep, Nope and Yepsie!! Isn't she funny?
Well, when she had her nap I set to and did five water-changes of washing up for Tam. Although they have a dishwasher, it is only small and the big bowls, pans and things won't fit in, so those had been lingering for a while . . . My halo nearly choked me after that!
I had the other half of a chicken fajita mix I'd made for a quick tea last night, and then sat down to watch the Horse of the Year Show coverage. Whilst it was nice to see, there was too much back-stage chatting and I think anyone watching was disappointed to see just the last couple of competitors in the jumping classes, and some very glossed over showing classes too.
