FLOWERS

Had another relaxing day.  Did a load of washing and made a couple of phone calls.

One call was to my mobile provider.  Not easy to get through to them as I kept getting cut off.  Finally spoke to someone.  I was calling to try and get a refund of the money I paid to have data roaming on my phone while I was in America.  I paid the required fee and set up the roaming .... but it never worked.  However I wasn't able to get a refund as " they don't do refunds ". I was offered more data on my Pay As You Go package for this month but that would be useless as I hardly use any of my data allowance anyway. So I wasted my money - and it was inconvenient not being able to get in touch with Becky or Mike when we were out and about.  Good job we mostly stuck together.

The other call was to the health centre. Ive got another leg ulcer.  Had one years ago which took ages to clear up so I'm expecting the same again.  My leg is very painful at the moment - as it was while I was away  - so it needs sorting. Got an appointment for tomorrow.

Had to apply online for a new bus pass today  as I can't find the one I had.  Can't remember where I put it before I went away.  It usually costs £5 for a replacement pass but at the moment its free.  Supposed to take up to 28 days for new one to arrive.  Fingers crossed it comes sooner rather than later.

This afternoon more scaffolding was put up outside my house.  There was some at the front when I got back from my trip and today the roofers returned to put some at the back ready for next Tuesday when they will start the job of replacing my gutters. 

Went to Slimming Group this evening.  Got a lift there and back.  Not many stayed after getting weighed.  Think the lovely weather may have been a factor.  I lost 1½ pounds which was a bit of a surprise considering all the " junk food " I ate while I was away.  I did do a lot of walking though which must have helped. 

There is no theme for Abstract Thursday so I did some processing on a few flower photos I took today.  Couldn't decide which to blip so Ive made a collage of two.... a dandelion and forget - me - nots. Thanks to Ingeborg for hosting.
