Take A Seat..........

On my Pretty Pink & White altered chair!!
Sorry that i wasn't around for the last couple of days but the painkillers are making me very sleepy through the day and i can't sleep at night! I went to see the Physiotherapist yesterday and he wants to see me again on the 22nd and if there is no improvement he will refer me back to the hospital as there may be something wrong with my cartlidge.
Well all of that didn't stop me enjoying some sunshine and altering an old dining chair which hubby was going to chop up, the shame! lol! I never throw anything away!
So here is what the result looks like.
