Plooky

It's finally stopped raining.

Let the gardening begin~ 🥰

Bit late now. 😅

(Was walking through Hyde Park in London and found this in a tree. Had to scramble up a few branches to get it.).

"Oh rad! A cute little treat to lead up to Easter! 🥰"

"Oh..."

*Cursed forever*

Think my sense of smell may have finally returned after surgery!

Took myself into London and it feels like I've got a new nose or something. Gonna run around some bakeries and frantically snuffle all the products.

RIP. :(

(Might be nonsense but a hot decaffe tea/drink might help breaking down the fats?)

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

*path, not bath xD

I'm trying to formulate a plan but it's tricky at this point. The garden has so many overgrown secrets that I need to prune back (including a hidden stone bath and area at the back of the garden) but I can then start deciding when to put new stuff. 🥰

Omg, have a wonderful time! How exciting! 😁

I am beyond grateful to the couple who had this bungalow before us.

Everything is coming to life this week and it's giving me life in return. 💕

Big relate. Gotta have a couple of cry breaks each day to push on through. Hope you feel better soon~ 💕

Keep yo-yo'ing from wanting to manically dance about to songs like "I'm Still Standing", to crying pathetically.

Brain chemicals, amirite? :V

Additionally - the nurses have been amazing.

I've always had the up-most respect for how insanely hard they work, but having then constantly attend to me while dealing with the much more severe people on my ward really puts things in a new perspective. ♥️

Been here since Wednesday but got confirmation from the doctor I'll be able to go home today.

Just the idea of having a full, interrupted nights sleep is filling me with happy feels. 🥰

A fine idea. 🥰

Been told I don't get out till Monday. Already pretty bored and very hard to sleep in these wards. 😵‍💫

Also apparently ten weeks after of no heavy lifting or bending forward somehow. So much for looking forward to some Spring gardening at the new house... 😭

I was cheated. :(

Feeling drowsy and sore but am already back in the land of the living.

Didn't lose the gland, my eyesight or die, so let's call this a win. 😉

Thanks all. 💕

Admitted to hospital for my long awaited surgery.

Tomorrow morning they'll put me under to remove a tumour on my pituitary gland, near my brain.

Sitting in this ward, waiting for tomorrow is bad enough, but really not looking forward to 3-4 days laying here recovering.

Liking the new post-Chrismas living room layout. Still feels very cosy. 😙

ITS THAT TIME AGAIN

The new garden was looking rather gorgeous this morning. 🥰

After non-stop weeks of unpacking, tidying, and painting, it should hopefully be a pretty cosy first Christmas in the bungalow~ 💕

Happy birthday, beautiful. 🥰

(yes, the stubborn bits still need to be destroyed)

Turns out cleaning an oven is far more satisfying when you own the bloody thing. 😅
