A cup of tea can taste like nectar after a long night and a longer day and another night without anything - that is, being in hospital and in waiting for an ultrasound, one has a little sign above one's head saying 'Nil Orally'. Hmmph. This happened to me last week and after the first night complete with attached IV, not only was I constantly aware of it standing sentinel over my bed, but that I had not had anything pass my lips. Crushed ice is pretty good. Eventually. A cuppa is better. So is icecream.
Yesterday was February 29. Nothing out of the ordinary happened. Some special people had birthdays. Tomorrow will be exciting. Our lovely green Stressless reclining chairs should be arriving. Hooray!
Now all we have to do when we get to sit in them is imagine our sandy worn carpet is the flora Glencoe Wood under our feet. Yes, they're green. Chairs, that is.
