Good afternoon
Phew what a scorcher!! I am just loving this weather - makes everything so much better. I am still on a happy high from last weekends trip away. Yes there have been a few tricky bits this week but they are being far outnumbered by good things and happy times - long may this sunshine continue.
Here's my weekend in recycled Instagram pictures - just seems so easy to take them that way!!
The weekend started with tea and biscuits in the garden with a good friend - I decided that mugs just weren't right so I hunted down a pair of gorgeous vintage cups and saucers instead;
Friday evening saw the end of a busy week for the boys and I thought we deserved a treat - the shopping got delivered with a little extra in there for us all;
Saturday morning was spent on domestic stuff - little son got the hoovering to do and big son the grass cutting - both things that I find hurt my ribs and scars at the moment. I got the tasks to tidying up - oh job - perhaps when we've a smaller house we will be tidier????
We decided a bbq tea was in order - luckily the Doctor had agreed on Friday that light cycling was ok for me to do so once jobs were done I popped into town for supplies. As an extra treat I bought marshmallows for toasting over the coals once the other cooking was done;
Honestly they were happy - the photo doesn't suggest this though does it!!
This morning I went to the boot sale with a sister - a punnet of strawberries, a bunch of sweet williams and 2 vintage Enid Blyton books were my haul - just £4 spent.
This afternoon this has been my view;
Just following medical advice and taking it easy!!!
Lounging around with a book and my ipad - what a tough afternoon!!
Oh and I couldn't resist a selfie!!
Back indoors now as there are jobs to do - need to everything sorted so I can enjoy the White Queen later - am really loving this series.
Hope you've all had a good weekend and have had a chance to get outside in the sunshine. Really hoping this good weather continues as I'm off somewhere exciting next Sunday with Dawn - we've booked day tickets for Latitude Festival and I think Friday night we were both more excited than a class of 5 year olds on Christmas Eve!! Goodness what we will be like by next weekend!!!
On the health side, I am doing really well. Allowed to cycle and dance but only gently. I have lots of hospital appointments over the summer to check that there are no lasting problems - the general opinion is there aren't but they are being very thorough.
See you soon

I expect we were home again before you arrived at Friday St. We got an early start as we were woken by a magpie family fighting at the bird feeder - must remember to get them in at night. I hope you walked around gently and take care at Latitude too.
Hi Vicki
You sound much better, glad your boys are looking after you. Hope you enjoy Latitude with Dawn, no crowd surfing or jumping in the mosh-pit though!!
Hello, gorgeous! This weather's suiting you, bet the sunshine's doing you the power of good.
Hooray! So pleased to hear you're doing Latitude - plenty of photos, please! xxxx
Looks like a lovely afternoon!
Looks like your packing all the fun in there....keep it going! :) x
Oh I am so glad to hear you are on the up medically. Keep taking it steady and have fun at latitude.
You look fantastic Vicki and glad you've had time to enjoy that sunshine.

You sound like your on the mend now. Looks like you have nice warm weather a the moment.
You look so happy and well in your selfie. The sun really does have healing properties I think.
Sounds like you have had a great weekend with another great one lined up! Here's to happy summer days.

So good to hear you're doing well, what a fab weekend, I have spent much of it lay on my back in the sunshine too.. would be rude not to ~ Sarah x
Very glad to hear they are keeping such a good eye on you and that you are well on the way to recovery.
Have a good week.

Mmmmm Pimms!!! x
Looks like a pretty great weekend from where I am sitting
Glad to see you are on the mend - Enjoy Latitude, it is fab and on our doorstep! I camped last year and had a wonderful time (despite the rain and mud!)No worries of that this year :-)
We decided not to go this year as we are off to Radio 2 in Hyde Park and Last Night of the Proms in Hyde Park, both one weekend in September. Hopefully we'll return to Latitude next year.
Enjoy 3D Kraftwerk!
