PHASE II AS GOOD AS IT GETS DAY 106

PHAASE II A.G.A.I.G DAY 106

Tuesday, a work meeting day. The usual breakfast and drugs with the addition of post jab paracetamol and a call from a friend to start the day, a day that appears not to be raining. I attend to some work admin and review where I am with it. Another friend calls and we compare notes on gardens, allotments and recent family events. I get myself in front of the laptop for my one to one with the programme manager. It is a useful catch up and it is helpful to go over the review of my work. After the meeting I do some related admin and then have lunch. I am about to change into my training gear when I realise that GB are playing Denmark in the world ice hockey championship. I watch as GB get a point by drawing at full time but unfortunately in over time they loose another goal just 25 seconds to go to the end of time. Now I go and train in the garage with a 30 minute row, which starts slowly and builds to a decent session.

I shower post training and attend to my surgery wound. The putting on the antibiotic cream is simple however spaying the liquid plaster on it is more tricky when looking at the phone in selfie mode. The fist time I tried I nearly sprayed my eye and as a consequents glued my eye closed, almost. Today forearmed with this knowledge the process went much more smoothly. The family eat tea and I settle down to watch Sweden play Switzerland whilst waiting for the professional bake off to come on. Watching professional chefs create elaborate pastries and sweets is fascinating and the range of cock ups is also an entertainment. The fun over I start to write the blog. Tonight I need an early night, my jab site is sore and I want to try to get out of the house into the garden and get to grips with my garden.

Today there was sunshine
