It is 16C or 60F at 6.30am and we are in for another hot day but right now it is lovely with the front and back sliding doors open.

I went with Tim to Kmart he wants a pedestal fan; however, they didn't have any, so we went to the Reject shop, but they also didn't have any. 

By midday the temperature was 29C or 84F, Tim made me a chicken schnitzel bread roll for my lunch.

By 2pm it was 32C or 89F and my lower back/hip area is very painful with back spasms.

At around 4pm Tasha came down looking for food, Tim brought up how she is getting the careers allowance for me but is doing bugga all. Voices got raised and I felt stuck in the middle. Tasha pointed out that at this time I prefer having Sue's company.

By 6pm the temperature had dropped to 24C or 75F and by bedtime it was a nice 21C

SANDRA'S BIRTHDAY SHE IS 48 TODAY

I had a shocking night between the dyskinesia and the spasms in my right hip I didn't get much sleep, only had 5hrs& 35 mins. I woke at 4.50 and got up to pee, I took my meds and decided to go back to bed till Tim left, I then got up and had a shower.

I have decided to use the walker instead of the cane to see if that helps with the hip pain.

I managed to do a load of washing and hang it out to dry.

I went to lunch with my sisters at Warners at the Bay, it was great we laughed a lot, and Sandy liked her birthday present from me.

Then I had my physio appointment, and the therapist was pleased with my progress. My next appointment is on the 11 November at 13.30. I took the walker when I went out.

My hip started to give me a lot of pain around 5pm.

I had a good night’s sleep, woke only when the alarm went off this morning so got around 9hrs & 31 mins of sleep.

Just after I got out of bed my phone started ringing, it was Jess she was at the front door and couldn't get it as she couldn't find her key and needed her work shirt.

It is a cool 14C at 6am and it's not suppose to be as hot today, we will see.

Tasha rang Officeworks about my new laptop it should be in by 5pm.

I received a text letting me know my laptop is in this was at 2pm, Tasha said she will get it in the morning.

DAD'S BIRTHDAY & MY NIECE ISSY'S AS WELL SHE IS TURNING 21

What a horrible night I had an interrupted night waking 3 times to pee. I went to bed at 8pm but at 10pm while trying to roll onto my left side I had a great deal of pain and was in distress, Tim came in and helped me get up and he rubbed deep heat into my hip and told me three times I need to see a doctor but I feel what's the point it isn't like anything can be done for the hip other then what I am already doing.

My watch says I had 5hrs & 31 mins of sleep which sounds about right to me. I felt part of the problem last night was that I was stiff, this morning the pain is still there but I am moving about and it’s not so bad.

It is 16C at 6am we are in for a hot day with the top being 31C, for all those not in my part of the world I will remind you we are still in spring.

We went shopping with Sue, then we went to the cemetery and left a birthday card for dad. When I got home, I was that exhausted that Tasha and Sue made me have a nap, after which I felt much better.

I have set the new laptop up and all is good.

The temperature at bedtime is 22C or 71F

Steps:10,812 = 5.5klm’s or 3.3 miles

I slept well got 8hrs and 38 mins sleep woke only once to pee, still have pain in my hip but applied Deep Heat and it’s not too bad.

I had no problem connecting the printer.

At 5.30an it was 23C or 73F, going to be another hot day.

By midday it was 28C or 82F but increased to 31C or 87F.

Around 7pm we had a small storm with strong winds, but it didn’t last long.

I went to bed at 7.30pm but found I had restless body and after an hour tossing and turning I got up and used the powerfit before going back to bed.

The temperature dropped to around 23C thankfully.

Steps: 11,526 = 5.9klm’s or 3.7 miles

After using the powerfit last night I settled down ok and had a good night’s sleep getting 7hrs and 39mins of sleep. 

When the alarm went off, I wasn’t sure I wanted to get up but had to pee, so I did and decided to have a shower and shave my legs.

It is a pleasant 18C as I write this at 6.30am.

Tim and I went down to the shops but since we went early some of stuff, I wanted from the bakery wasn’t available.

Spoke to Kathy each Saturday when we talk she has such interesting stuff about our family ancestors to tell me I am loving it.

I had a nap at midday; it has been a nice day warm but not hot.
