Have been out most of today at a Carers' event (good fun, good food, saw several people I knew, and was the MSE favourite - all FREE!)
Being quite new here, I don't know everyone yet, but being nosey (well, always interested in people - same difference I guess!) I'm getting there, so will send congrats to lav - rest when you can, and don't forget to eat all your iron-rich foods!
Hugs to all who need them.
My good news is that when I got back this afternoon I picked up a message from SW - DH is moving in to the nursing home on Thursday afternoon. I had been told nothing would happen until after a visit here re finances, but they've gone ahead anyway. Probably based it on the previous one, done when assessing us for home help type things.
I know it's a bit late, but am just going to embark on a HHC based in the kitchen. DD4 was visiting her dad when I got in, and she found out the news and came round to see if I knew. She stayed for a meal, as her DH and kids have gone off to his sister's for a few days, and by the time I'd knocked up a curry (yum!) the kitchen was a mess.
Too lazy to touch it till now, so here goes! (Don't expect anyone will join me at this time of night!)

I have almost cleared the bathroom floor of all the washing that emerged from kids pits, 4 loads today. another 2 tomorrow and it will be done. Then I will be having to find drawer space for it all.
Hall, stairs and landing have been decluttered and swept. and the HHC earlier with froddington and carolinejane. Pizzas made for tea, lawn mower operated by ds2, front porch (dumping ground) sorted by ds1.
Time to take off SW outfit and put on pjs. I'm pooped.
No intention of seeing the sunrise so for those early birds, have a lovely day

HHC all done and dusted - managed to knock the kick board off one of the kitchen units with my energetic mopping of the floor, but think I've got it back OK.
