August Bank Holiday Weekend on the Isle of Wight means a huge motor scooter rally. Every road seems to have these noisy machines in large numbers. In the early evening we managed to dodge them and went to the seafront to watch Queen Mary 2 sail by at the start of her voyage to New York. Two years ago Ev and I were on board for an experience of a lifetime.
That was then, this is now. I had a much better night's sleep through not lying on my left hand side. Consequently Ev had some much needed rest. This morning she went to church choir practice. It was the first time since I cam back home that she had gone out without me. As part of the process of recovery we both felt it was time that I started sorting out at least some of my meals myself. Thus I made myself a mid morning snack. All went well. I also walked further than before without any ill effects. On the weighing machine I have lost a further 4 pounds since Wednesday.
On the plus side I do feel a bit better today and Ev tells me I look a bit more healthy. I still need to know when to stop eating before the food starts cloying. This is not a very pleasant experience but is okay provided I don't have a fit of coughing at that time because I am then sick.
Tomorrow is of course the next challenge and I shall be reporting on how it went.
