Evening
I was so tired last night, I was on the go for a while. I managed to do 25mins of JustDance, weeded the garden a bit and got rid of the dead flowers from plants and really watered the garden. Finally at 8pm I had a shower! Much needed shower...I managed a bit of drawing but not much then I was playing Pokemon til 10pm. I fell asleep and didnt notice Jack come to bed at 11pm
I woke up at 4am and felt like I had a sore throat coming, my thought was "great caught mum's germs" but this morning I didnt feel that bad, I was a lil snotty but on the whole not that bad. I put the thoughts from my mind as I do not want to be poorly! I will be just fine~
we woke up at 8:15am I cuddled Jack saying "Happy Birthday" this woke him up XD
We had breakfast with Oz, and then Jack opened his presents and cards with Oz there to help and supervise of course. Then we made our lunch then we went out.
I drove us to Newstead Abbey, I havent been for YEARS.
We got there and I sod the map and just started walking round. Its basically like this huge old lord house that sits on the grounds of a few lovely gardens. You have to pay separately to go round the lord house but screw that I wasnt there for the house! I was there for walking and exploring~
There was a road down to the carpark with very small road humps in the road, I slowed cus thats what you do, i went over the first one and heard something bang and then heard metal clinking to the floor. I pulled over (luckily no one around) and Jack retrieved part of the suspension....the first time we use the car and the suspension snaps...yup
I rang mum once we had been for a wee and had a stretch and told her, she laughed, the car is so old rusted and and crappy. But I was just ringing to see if we were safe to drive home. We had taken a photograph of the spring and not much had snapped off in comparison to the whole spring. Mum sent it to dad (no way was I gonna ring and talk to him) and she got back to us that yes we would be ok to drive home just take it easy over any bumps.
so we were off~~
I somehow managed to hone in on the Japanese Garden first XD Everywhere was so pretty, we didnt bump into that many people or screaming kids, I really did think it was gonna be busier than what was. I was beginning to tire but didnt want to admit it, Jack kept making sit on a bench and catch my breath a minute sometimes needing the inhaler. We eventually said we would stop for lunch, I was hoping id be rearing to go after lunch so I could walk round the lake
lunch was good and we had our picnic blanket and cushions in the shade but I was getting a bit cold. I admitted that my legs were hurting and whilst I probably could have walked round the lake, I probably SHOULDNT walk round the lake. I would be pushing myself. Jack was happy to come back another time, for me not to push myself and he had enjoyed his outing
we got home ok, I drove us back as Jack didnt feel that confident driving a broken car and that was totally acceptable as a new driver.
I got home and had a cup of tea with Oz, a lay on my bed, then a hot bath as I was aching like mad!! Jack went to have some game time.
I made from scratch Katsu curry for dinner. So I coated the chicken with panko and I made the sauce from scratch. Not made with coconut milk so its better for you and it turned out alright actually. We watched the final episode of So Im a spider So what, in our pyjamas with Oz. Yup a lot nicer than going out for food and cheaper too! XD
Think I will just do some art this evening ether digital or painting I shall see
I havent got any plans tomorrow, think mummy would like to see me but she says see how I feel. We might be tackling the garage cupboard too.
I have made ice cream for tonight ^^ yay I am looking forward to that treat!
I think on the whole my Jack has enjoyed his birthday and I am glad as I tried my best for him. We were gonna have a movie night tonight but we both cant be bothered XD it was nice actually going out somewhere together tho as we havent actually been out together for ages
last year of his 20's XD
