A happy "Normal" day... Only one medical visit!!
Today was th3e day I was to bake a cake as Rebecca , Tom and Iris were coming for tea and cake to celebrate, belatedly, Rebeccas birthday.
All went well but at the very end of the mix, my trusty Kenwood died!!!
I had bought her second hand in 1978, from a friend , Vanessa, who had multiples of eveything and simply didn't want it. If I remember rightly I also bought a denim shirt dress and all for £10! probably a lot of money then
Anyway I mark the occasion with this pic...
The cake was lovely..
And here it is.....
And this was the company!! a crocodile and a daddy!!
So as you can see I'm feeling brighter... Monday was a very very difficult day, I was very emotional.. This happens some times and I guess you can see that it is then reflected in my Blog... sorry if I was too maudlin!!!
As well as a normal day in the kitchen I kept the house tidy... even made my bed as I got out of it... well you have toi when your house is ion the market!
HUG ME, I'VE GOT MND
I guess this is a diary of my thoughts, findings and feelings since being dianosed with MND in December 2011.

BAKING!
Today has been slow for me... Didn't sleep at all well last night. BUT I had to bake today, Freeze cakes ready to ice next Sat... for MND Fundraiser on Sun.
My legs are sooo weak today. I tried being in wheel chair... too low. I tried using perching chair, inflexible and too high, I tried resting against the Zimmer.... and found...... the most efficient, yet tiring was leaning and lurching against work surfaces!
So 5 sponge cakes made. 4 for Sun. The fifth is in the bin. I baked it and it really looked weird... it was then that I found the other two eggs that should have been used !!! OK 80% I can live with.... but it does grieve me that I have had to chuck out good ingredients...
So a song to end... the link being "So High I can't Get Over It" ie the work surface from a wheelchair!! Never mind Just Rock My Soul !
