Evening out!

 Thanks to our District Nurse we got to have an evening out...she reserved tickets for us at the Mauchline Young Farmers Annual concert....she is also a farmer and one of her sons was one of the cast.

It was a cracking good evening..two halves, an hour each, with an interval ..when we had ice cream tubs of ice cream made in Mauchline!

A cast of  fifteen "boys" and twenty four "girls"...plus the musicians and backstage staff..from mid teens to late thirties on stage,  singing, dancing, acting.....a really professional standard production, with Troon town hall booked out for all three performances .

It was a lighter evening in the past few days...Pirate isn't a happy bunny and a bunny on pain, which makes him a very grumpy bunny.

Still, we have good news, CT scan and MRI booked, so we will know facts, good or bad...no more guessing...what we have been pressing for since last July....

I have been doing housework all day today...a bit of catch-up... decluttering was supposed to have been on the menu but didn't really happen.

Genealogy was supposed to be done as well.....but by 5.30 I had had enough!!

The other good news is that after a bad late start after bad dreams in the early hours Pirate went to collect his scrip by midday and walked the roundabout route including up Ladies Walks a steep path without stopping...and managed to raise a sweat..a very good sign.

Sounds like a wonderful evening out!
Your District Nurse is a gem.
Hope the remainder of the weekend is a good one!

Oh, poor bunny —pain isn’t conducive to a sweet mood, is it?
So, how excellent to have a fun evening out!

I feel for Pirate, I do hope he has some effective painkillers.

Amy yes..slow release morphine plus paracetamol..and liquid morphine to enable sleep at night if a top-up is needed, our district nurse is keeping a close eye on him and the levels needed.

it sounds like you have a good district nurse. ‘How lovely to have an evening out and something fun. Hope you dont have to wait too long for the tests. Our healthcare system is pretty grim. Jean in Winnipeg.

The night out sounded badly needed, and I'm glad that you had it. The unknown is always more terrifying than pulling the monster out of the dark closet and taking a good look at it. Keeping my fingers crossed for good news on that front. You both are doing so well at keeping level headed and 'pressing on'.
