Good afternoon/morning all.
Good news - I have a boot!!:)
I can start to weight bear but still have to use crutches for now.
It's quite painful at the moment but there will be some physio sessions to attend so it should get easier.
The doc doesn't want to see me for about 6 - 8 weeks unless there's any problems.
My foot still looks a bit of a mess and I am surprised at how bruised it is, but I can wet and wash it now which I'm really looking forward to.
A foot that's been unwashed for 6 weeks is not a pleasant thing! :confused:
Hope you are all having a good day and warming up for the weekend.
Congratulations! I know that feels better.

Another sunny day here. But our March usually holds true to form and comes in like a lion. . . so it's probably windy, and I hate the wind!

Glad to hear all the health good news - clean foot, less double vision, a mere cold. Keep up the good work!!

That is awesome news Lyn. I am really happy for you. Just remember no foot loose moves for a while still.

We got our house listed and did our first showing today. Thank y’all for all the great tips. It was very positive feedback so hopefully we’ll get an offer. It’s going to be difficult to move our tortoises though. They will have lots more room if we are able to get the house we want.

We have recycling bins into which we can put papers, card, plastic and cans, clean foil etc, and the council actually check our bins to make sure we are recycling the right stuff. Sadly there's always an anti social/environment element of society who just can't be bothered and put it all in the landfill bin and I get really mad at people who just drop their litter out of their cars. I have joined a group which does voluntary litter picking around the area but obviously I've been not been too active lately.
Hoping your appointment went well and you're a little more free. Our city keeps trying to organize and recycle but it's up to the public to cooperate. The city is doing something right though. I've seen a lot of wildlife in broad daylight going about their business. One day, I got to see a herd of deer munching in a grassy back yard on the corner of Fair and High. The traffic was really busy and no parking in that area so I couldn't stop and take a picture. Everyone was just driving by like it's an everyday occurrence. It might be. It was nice.

We want pics of your bunny please.
Ok. And I have to send some pictures of my little guy too. It's a bit complicated on my phone but that's ok. First I have to email myself. Then I have to download the picture. Then my phone will upload it to TFO. I can't believe I even figured out how to do it.
