Afternoon, been out all morning visiting my dad so not got much done yet other than a load of washing. He's doing ok, still in a lot of pain from the surgery and getting a bit frustrated i think because he is usually such an active guy. Bought him his favourite sweets and a couple of books to keep him occupied.

I've spent the whole morning putting photos in the album - very time consuming and only half done. I'm finding it a very good healing process in the main.
A bit stiff now so I'm going to:
do the watering
have lunch
do the hoovering
dust the living room
It will probably be time for me to go then but I'll see how I get on.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
