feeling blah!
i am all blah.. I am a bit tired and achey.. my belly gets sore all the time.. especially when I eat too much.. last night I ate too much lasagne at knitting and then i couldn't laugh because it was so painful.. i guess when you have loads of extra stuff hanging about inside somethign needs to stretch and make room.
also phil and I visited my Dad at lunch time and he seemed a bit sad.. when we were leaving he kept saying its good to see familiar faces.. It makes me sad.. I think the man next to him must have passed away over night.. there is a new person in his spot and his flowers are now out in the entry foyer.. poor old george.. most of the people that come in are italian or greek.. there is always mutterings of conversations that just pass over your head.. some of the nurses can speak whatever language it is.. i guess they like to keep the blokes and ladies seperate also.. never really thought about it before.. but all the people dad shares with are blokes..
he mentioned getting up and about and doing stuff today.. the nurse said that they would get the physio to check him out and see what he is capable and what things he can do.. he will still need helpers as his legs are pretty weak.. i guess not doing much exercise for 6 months will do that to you.. hopefully we can take him on an outing.. the only trouble is that the weather is so cold.. he wouldn't go outside for fearing of getting more sick..
