Busy week!!!

Well for the first time in 5 months I have been able to enjoy a lot of quality time with the family, as my "good" week coincided with a school holiday for once. I think I felt even better this week as I know I do not have to go back in on Monday for more treatment. We have been out every day since Friday in some shape or fashion. This includes meeting friends for lunch at theirs, going to mum's for Easter Sunday lunch, meeting friends for lunch out, meeting friends at the beach, and boy was it windy and cold, going to Borough Market in London with my mum, and enjoying the food. Do you sense a recurring theme here? Yep, friends and food, two of life's great pleasures.

Today I am off to Fins Motorcycles in Redhill for the grand opening of their new store. Fin is sponsoring my charity ride, www.wrongwayround.org.uk - and he has Charley Boorman from the series Long Way Round coming down to open the store. Nice tie in there, you would think I worked in marketing and planned it, but I am afraid it's all a coincidence as I planned my name last year. If you are free 12 til 2 pop on down.

Yesterday I heard from the hospital that I can start reducing my tablets by a measured amount so that in 3 weeks I will be tablet free and not on any medication. This again is a good sign, I hope! All in preparation for my next, and hopefully last for some time, set of scans, which is on Thursday, so I have that to look forward to.

Lastly, Sarah goes back to work on Monday, and the kids go back to school, so I will be on my own for the first time. I have a lot planned, so don't expect to be lonely, and Sarah has a lot of jobs planned for me to do around the house, so I won't be bored either. Freja only has a couple of weeks left at school, then she will be on study leave ready for her GCSE's, so my "isolation" won't last long!
