LOVELY LANZAROTE followed by MRI Scan. . .

 View from my balcony on first morning
Looking down from my balcony
 Blue blue blue
 One of hotel pools
Looking toward Fuerteventura . . .

Spent 2 glorious sunny weeks in Lanzarote on my own - returned a couple of days ago. Not a drop of rain.

Initial idea was to build up Vitamin D and immune system before spine operation scheduled for mid January. Problem caused by lifting Stephen during the latter part of his illness when he was hugely swollen and heavy - falling. Following his death, I stupidly moved (shoved) an empty skip which was blocking the drive and then dragged a total of 40 bags of compost to back garden.

Had MRI scan yesterday.  Not a fun experience but not as terrible as some folks think. Shut my eyes before I was shunted in the machine and hummed the Hallelujah Chorus (well, it IS Christmas) to drown out the bangs. All over in 30 minutes.
