Having a big bonfire tomorrow night.
Being able to afford not having to visit the food bank as often as I have been.
Seeing my hip surgeon next week..how old are you if I may be so bold!
I'm 52. It's the result of a cam acetabular impingement. I'd have had it done last year, but a fall from a bike set up a soft tissue injury (a morel lavalee lesion....) that has refused to heal, so they need to involve a plastic surgeon to manage the wound.
I had my snack, it was tasty.
Now I have nothing to look forward to any more.
*sadface*
Going to Scarborough tomorrow! I love the coast when it's cold.
Something truely historic before the end of March 🙂 (sorry couldn't help myself)
2017 will see some major changes personally and really looking forward to them
Knee surgery and rehab will hopefully go smoothly

Annual works xmas MTB ride tomorrow. Everyone brings leftover cake and we ride in big circles, returning to the cars to eat cake every lap, until we're knackered and bloated.
I'm looking forward to going on some decent length walks with my dog when she is fully grown (currently 6 months old).
