Many thanks for all your comments about my UTI, its becoming a real problem in my life. Our Surgery is having problems, so you can't get through to see a Dr and recently one has left, so they are even more pressed to see anyone from our 16,500 people who populate our town. There is just the one surgery. I have written twice to the Practice Manager and spoken to him face to face, but unfortunately the dire situation persists. So many people complain on the town FB page; I always comment and suggest they write their comments to the Practice Manager, if enough people did, there might be changes.
The 17 steps are from my bed to the toilet, not a stairway! I leave the door open, so its easy and I don't flush every time to save water.
Anyway in spite of being up drinking tea at 5:00, Dh had joined me, I didn't feel too bad yesterday. I went back to bed and he stayed up because its our Tesco delivery in the morning.
When the rain stopped in the afternoon, we ventured into the garden to plant the foxgloves and aquilegia seedlings I had sown ready to plant out now.. We still have weeding and tidying to do ready for winter, but we'll do 20 minute sessions to get it all done over the next few weeks when it's dry.
Being outside made me feel loads better, and it didn't feel cold.

Wonderful that you still have flowers that will cheer you up every time you see it.
Foxgloves are beautiful. xx
I'm glad your garden and the fresh air helped for a while. It has been unseasonably warm hasn't it, it reached 19 degrees when we were in Manchester the other day.
Time in nature is helpful on so many levels! Feel better soon!
Sounds like you need to have a go at the local Primary Care Commissioners - they need to be made aware of your problems with GP access. However, given the current trend in the NHS to more and more part time women GPs I don't hold out much hope for you.
So glad you are feeling a bit better. I like the sound of 20 minute slots for gardening. Being outside just for a short time always makes me feel better.
Time spent in the garden or outside can be so helpful to our wellbeing.
All the best Jan
I love the way you continue to find joy despite your very concerning condition. I had no idea that these plants were to be put out in fall. I wonder if that holds true for my area.
