The new coaching skills are not kicking in very well, I can't help teaching in the usual way :( ...Josh has some friends that I can ask if they will be my guinea pigs...they will benefit from free lessons as I will become the student....it really looks like an awesome way for Learners to learn how to drive...watch this space.
I had some cancellations, so fairly quiet day. Baby girl came round this afternoon as I got back, shrieking "nanny, nanny" ....from the car as she spotted me jumping out of mine on the drive.
I hadn't realised so I came in carrying my bags and put the kettle on. Francesca was carried in by her mum, crying...apparently she broke her heart that I came inside rather than going to get her from the car. I felt so bad, and so loved. I calmed her down, cuddling her. I love her so much...she has a kind, joyful heart...and is so affectionate.
I discovered Pete had put 'wheels on the bus" on very loud ...music blaring from one of his computers in the office...both trying to entice her away from her nanny...and to try and take my place as current number 1 on the grandparent list. Of course this is not an official list...just one I concoct in my mind. But I still love that I am firmly in place at number 1! Voted in by...me.
The diet has been consistent....now on day 6...not one carbohydrate of any significance has passed my lips...my stomach is still resembling a full time pregnancy, I am constantly tired, and already have gone off food, as the constant meet/cheese diet is just not appetising.
I do hope I can keep it up and actually start losing weight. My brother sent me a photo of his newly fitted 'feed tube' protruding from his stomach. Bless him...knowing he won't be able to taste food or swallow it very soon , once treatment begins..keeps me grounded...if I fancy anything yummy I will
remember David can't swallow and will be in agony.
Surely I can stick to this diet, to help me kickstart a fitter body....might have to exercise to...maybe next week...
I'm not worried about my appearance but know I'm doing mysel no favours being overweight and unfit. I know God made me this way...but I've stretched it a bit too much....
I wished I lived closer to my brother. I'm grateful for prayer...that I can still do something for him at this distance.
Lord please keep him in your care, in your loving arms and Bless him as he stays a night in the
hospital, please grant him the Peace that passes all understanding, and please heal him of this scary disease Lord, Amen x
