Easter
Can't believe it's Easter and I have been home nearly 2 weeks how the time has flown only a week left. Up early on Good Friday got up just before 7 and actually slept well only woke up once in the night which is a novelty. We picked Nanna up at 8.30 then go straight to Ripon as having my hair colour done today since couldn't have it done last time. I fancied a change aswell either red or purple but ended up going a plum colour as Jo my hairdresser thought red may be no good. Unfortunately whilst having my hair dried my earring fell out and we found the back but not the front but their will continue looking. It was then to find Mum and Nanna luckily didn't take long and found them in Sainsburys as looking for creme egg Easter egg for Sharon. But luckily Nanna got mine a green and black's Easter egg tasting collection so since never found we went to Morrisons afterwards, but no success. Got home 11.30 and when shaking my clothes I found the front of my earring in my bra how funny... It was then to go to Sharon's got there after 12 and was very fortunate was just making sausage sandwich so I got one aswell. Then go to Clare's got their 1.30 look round her house first as haven't seen it since she has done all the work. The place was done out very nicely, very neutral colours and still some work to do but mainly downstairs. We then all went to Kidzplay centre an indoor soft play area in Harrogate with Clare, Becky, Henry, Rubi and Matilda. It was the first time Becky and Sharon had seen how Ellie and Henry play together and their played so well. But think there were abit confused a first as expecting their Nanna's/ Grandma's to be there as that's who they are usually with when their meet. Whilst the children all happily played together it gave us chance to catch up and have a hot drink. Also was nice how Ellie had some food and she shared it well with Henry without even been asked. All kids the kids cried once from tripping or been hit by ball and didn't end up leaving til after 5. We then had to stop at M&S food on way back for something for Ellie's dinner but think she only wanted as Henry going. Got home 6ish have cuppa then go for fish n chips at Harper's in Ripon with Mum and Dad as have to have fish on a Good Friday. Harper's fish n chips is a new restaurant from when I was last in the UK and served great quality fish and chips. The food was delightful, the batter on the fish was just right, chips were lovely and the staff were happy, nice to have proper British fish n chips. I had a full fish and chips which was far too much couldn't eat it all whilst Mum and Dad had the senior citizenship one. The Harper's senior citizens special came with dessert which we got and tried both but didn't manage it all. At night watch TV found film Shawshank Redemption an excellent film and bed 1ish after falling asleep on sofa. Did not sleep the best woke up 7, 7.30, 8 and eventually got up 8.30ish. Had breakfast then decided I would go for a run as seem like all I have done since been back is eat and done no exercise. Also Mum and Dad had gone out to sort out changing banks, spoke to Joan first as first time seen her since been back. Ended up going for a run just 11am ran round Dunsforth only had to walk once was a lot better than expected. Actually managed to run 3.10kms in less than 20 minutes which I thought want too bad since not been outside for ages. Only thing is once I got home my ears and hands felt very cold so next time will definitely have to wear my headband and gloves Once home sorted through a few more off my things and actually put some on eBay, Mum and Dad home after 1. Have some lunch then go to Monks Cross with Mum before 2, first stop was John Lewis where get blue star blanket for Monica and Mauro new baby. Saw Family relation Rozita and Abigail mother and daughter who both work at John Lewis make up counters. It was then to do the supermarket shop at Asda and I didn't ended up buying much, very disappointing home after 6. For dinner me and Mum having the Ostrich steak which we got on Thursday tasted good and very low in fat. I then stayed in with Mum and Dad to watch the TV final of voice and Stevie won who we expected to win, bed midnight. On Easter woke up 6ish and few more times then eventually got up just after 8am. Have breakfast a fruit smoothie and then supposed to be speaking to Tiago on Skype but he was at gym so have to wait til 9.30. Ended up speaking on Skype at 9.45 and had a good chat didn't feel like that long but spoke for just under 2 hours. Mum and Dad went out when I just going on Skype to look at cars and by time there were back was still talking to Tiago. Once Mum and Dad back Mum made bacon sandwiches nice to have proper British bacon and then went to Skip bridge car boot sale. I didn't end up getting dressed til 1.30 and did some more recycling of clothes before going for a run at 3ish. Was very proud managed to run all the way round Dunsforth today which was 2 miles and was more sunny but still wore my headband and gloves to keep warm. Have a shower then Auntie Christine arrive just before 4ish and bought us a box of Easter treats, whilst Dad went to pick up Nanna. As Auntie Christine had sent me message on Facebook saying would be nice to meet whilst I was home so Mum offered to do a roast dinner. Whilst waiting for dinner to be ready we had cups of tea as that all Auntie Christine drink, think Nanna disappointed no alcohol. Had dinner 5.30ish roast chicken dinner with all the trimmings and then raspberry mousse was all very nice. Was very nice to see Auntie Christine again and she looked so well and can't believe how long we spoke as she didn't leave til 9ish. After everyone left watch with a gin and tonic then finish watching Skyfall and bed midnight.
