My niece and I went to see the Star Wars film tonight,The last Jedi,very enjoyable,we had a steak meal at the pub after and drinks and cakes at the cafe after that.My niece was in good spirits,she is getting excited cos after christmas in the New Year,4 January 2018,she is going to Los Angeles to study for six months.She is excited but nervous too.I am going to miss her but will see her lots before she goes over christmas.Tomorrow I have her company we are meeting up town to go shopping for her xmas presents she wants shoes and a bag.We will probably eat at Nandos.....Happy days,happy memories!

My niece and I have been shopping for her xmas presents,she chose a bag and shoes.I paid for them.She got Dr Martens shoes,they are nice,wine coloured,typical Dr Martens style.They were expensive...my niece was jumping for joy when i said she could have them.Well she is going away and I wanted to make her happy!It was exhausting going round the shops cos my back hurts and my mobility isn't good,I had to keep stopping to rest,we walked from one side of town to the other and I couldn't walk anymore we had to get a cab back.
After the present shop we ate a curry at the pub and after that we had a hot drink at the cafe.This was on Wednesday this week.i won't see my niece again until the 27th it is my turn for her to spend the day with me,we are doing it like it's Christmas day.On actual Christmas day she is spending with her mum and dad at my mum's place and Boxing Day she is going to see her aunt in London with her dad,her dad's sister.

Happy Christmas everyone!

Today I went and drew money out and went to the supermarket to do a Christmas food shop.It took two hours to get around the store cos it was packed with people and there were long queues at the checkouts.But I got all the necessaries.Traffic was congested it took the cab driver 25 minutes from when I booked to pick me and my shopping up, and the another 20 mins to take me home.

When I got home I was exhausted.I slept for over an hour.I unpacked the shopping then and sorted the bin sack and put it out and also sorted the compost caddy.My neck and back and shoulders really hurt still the muscles ache and it is 6pm now I got home at 12.30pm.My whole body is full of tension,I feel so very tired,overtired,restless but exhausted.I just had a moussaka meal,it was a ready meal that I bought during the food shop,I only had to heat it up.I've had my medication and I am trying to rest and relax but my whole body hurts and I feel wound up.

I wasn't going to do my food shopping today but I decided to cos it's friday and some people are still at work,tomorrow will be saturday more people will be around and the supermarket will be even more crowded and difficult to get round.I thought do it today and then I can do my chores and rest tomorrow!

I am in pain,but at least it is done and now I can just enjoy the new few days.
