Uncertain times

I am feeling slightly apprehensive at the moment as yesterday we went to see the consultant who do Steve's hip resurfacing operation last year. Steve had made a good recovery and had been pain free until about a month ago when he started to get pain in his hip. Following a visit to the GP a appointment followed very quickly. Although the x,rays look as if everything is Ok there is alot of clunking, clicking going on in the hip. so further investigations are needed. All this comes just as Steve has given up his fulltime job to go back to being self employed. Landscape gardening is not know as light work so I am not sure what is going to happen. We are very busy with the llama walks and bookings for our cottages are coming in well but at the end of the day we still have a big mortgage, I am sure we will survive with some adjustments and we will have more time to work on the Alpaca business. We will just have to wait and see!

On a lighter note we are watching Phoebe closely as she is now 333 days in her pregnancy sitting down alot and looking very large, she usually just gets on with it when we are not looking and I have only seen her give birth once in the last 4 years.

On an even lighter note have a look at this sent to me by Steve and his colleague Lucy who are supposed to be working. Alpacas surfing
