My goal today

leeCal

Today I must nurse my leg . I’ve woken up today with what feels like a tight band around my calf muscle and I’m finding walking a bit painful and difficult. I’ve had a swollen calf for thirty years but usually it doesn’t hurt.

@66Mustang @Cress I have poor sight being blind in the right eye from birth.  I listen to the radio a lot and enjoy the serialised stories and books often broadcast on BBC Radio 4.  One od side effect of this is that you form a mental picture of the people and places.  When Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy was broadcast I had mental pictures of the characters.  Then they decided to make a TV version.  It was nothing like I had imagined..  For me it was a disappointment because nothing looked right.  Audio books are great too.

Watched a couple of Eckhart Tolle videos today, excellent and very helpful.

@leeCal Have you listened to any podcasts of his?  I've listened to ones where he speaks to Oprah Winfrey and Russell Brand.  That man has so much wisdom! Make sure to rest your leg today and I hope it's better soon.

leeCal

Hi @Cher_Scope no I haven’t watched those yet, I noticed one on YouTube where he speaks to Oprah and I’ll watch it soon, thanks.

yes I’m resting my leg, I have it raised and it’s easing off now thank you.

janer1967

My goal is to find a good cheesecake recipe and then go shopping for the ingredients

leeCal

Good luck with the poem @Globster ?

i really like cheesecake @janer1967 I hope you find a good recipe today!

leeCal

My goal today is to win the lottery.
if I succeed I’ll let you know ?

janer1967

@leeCal If you win you will be too busy planning what to do with all the money and forget about us

Cheesecake made and it looks delicious, also barbecue chicken with dirty fries and onion rings.

All a bit of a waste though as my boyfriend now has hurt his back so not coming for the weekend, we also had tickets for the F1 Silverstone experience tomorrow so they will also be going to waste

Looks like a weekend of catching up on tv for me now !!!

leeCal

@janer1967 shame about your boyfriends back, I hope it isn’t serious, good luck with that.

leeCal

Yay, yippee, yahooooooo! ??????

i won! I got two numbers and now I get a free go! Yessssss! 

Well, better than nothing anyway.
