Up way to early 8.30, feels like the middle of the night. I have to make a trip to the supermarket for a few things before leaving to see my daughter. The weather is bad, typical Bank Holiday for us here, wet and miserable. I'm not looking forward to the drive with it raining. I still have to wrap my daughters birthday presents up..
Shopping done presents wrapped now time to leave. I was hoping to leave before 11am, it was 20 past when we did eventually leave. Thankfully the roads look quiet. I have been up for 3 hours, shattered and in pain already, Its going to be a good day.
Photos of our journey
Arrived at my daughters for 1 pm, she had booked a table at her favourite restaurant Biancos Italian restaurant, she knows the owners really well, she told us don't tell them itss her birthday or they will sing at her. First thing I did was tell them, Her boyfriend told me its all ready done but she doesn't know. When we were asking for the bill one of the waiters brought out an ice cream sundae with candles, they got the whole restaurant singing Happy Birthday, That was the first time I have seen her blush.
We had a walk around the market but had to stop as was in so much pain. We were back in the car for 3.30pm heading home. The rain wasn't as bad going home.
Coming home didn't take as long as going there, there was no roadworks, lights or any hold ups. Back at home in so much pain but glad to be home. Hubby had made a Vegetarian Sausage Casserole in the slow cooker, it was lovely.
I wish my daughter would move closer to us, she is there amongst his family, she needs her family support. Travelling to hers is to much for me, I am in more pain than usual. Ive never not seen my daughter on her birthday and I'm not going to let it stop me now, I will find away to see her. I may have to ask her to come to me for her next birthday. I may have to give up traveling that far and have my family come to me.
My youngest daughter and her boyfriend stayed to look after my pups as my youngest pup has seperation anxiety. Once we got home they both left for a night out, she will be coming home tomorrow morning to help us with some housework. She is my carer but wish I didn't need her as she needs money as wants her own place, she gets carers allowance for looking after me, its not very much. I've told her I'll manage as I don't want to hold her back.
That's me done for today, getting up early has just about killed me, thankfully I don't need to be up early tomorrow I can have a lie in.
Thank you for visiting 💟 💟
