I was very proud of Grandma today; she was determined to try to do her own shopping in Morrisons so I took her there in the morning. I parked very near the front door and brought her a trolley, and she proceeded to walk all around the supermarket leaning on the trolley and choosing her groceries. Being independent is very important for her and this was great progress. We had a celebratory cup of coffee in the café there before heading home.
This evening we went over to Heather and Ewan's for dinner. Ewan had made his famous Tuscan stew and it was absolutely delicious. I couldn't resist a second helping. Then Heather's rhubarb crumble cake was so tasty that I could not prevent myself from eating a generous helping of that too. As a result I have definitely overeaten but I cannot regret it!
We had a fun evening of chatting about everything under the sun and listening to music; at one point I was laughing so much at something Ewan said (let's just say that it involved leg transplants and Ernie Wise!) that my face muscles were actually hurting! It's so nice to be in company where I can really relax and be myself.
