Time for Changes

Well last time I wrote I was ill so I ended up at the Dr who prescribed steroids and antibiotics. In all fairness they did improve the cough but I am still ill and it is nearly a month now!! Unbelievable but true! I do still have the cough and slight cold but for the last week I have felt dizzy when I walk around or bend down and my ear is popping so it is a blocked ear causing it. I don't feel too bad as I got chatting to a shop assistant who has had this virus for 3 1/2 weeks herself so it is long lasting and not just me in poor health. Hoping I will be well soon and it all clears up. It was my first time on steroids but I was fine with them despite reading all about the side effects lol. The only difference I noticed was when eating a meal normally I never finish it as I find the portions too big, but with the steroids I found that I could eat much more and not feel full. Perhaps this is why some people put on weight when taking them idk.

We made our last trip to North Devon a couple of weeks ago staying the weekend. We have brought the caravan home with us for the winter - it just about fitted on our driveway with the hook thing at the front pushed into the garage. OH has boarded around it so nobody can get in the garage and there it stays until we are off to sunny South Devon next year. I am slowly clearing it out and bringing all the clothes and cleaning stuff etc into the house - just doing a bit every day as my balance is not too good atm.

Yesterday we had a Halloween party for the children in the family which went very well. I was serving hot dogs and burgers, daughter went out with all the kids and their parents and then organised games back here. We started at 5 and were finished by 8.30 which was nice and early. Daughter sorted out Apple Bobbing, Pass the Parcel, Wrap your Daddy and turn him into a Mummy, Hit the Pinata and the Grand sweet sharing - see the pics below!!





My middle son stayed the night and is moving to his own place tomorrow.He has moved into a 1 bedroom flat about 15 minutes drive from his workplace. He had to move as he wanted his own place and he was taking up son and DIL's front room so they were a bit cramped in the back room with the 2 grandchildren. I think my DIL will miss him as he was always ready with the G & T when she came home from work and is a very good cook lol. OH helped him move with his cousin helping too. Can't wait to visit as it looks very nice in the pic he sent. 

Well that's all for now as I haven't been out and about or done anything interesting really due to being so ill. Bye for now All the best x
