Cazmanian is junior dog young enough that he might get used to the hoover? if you keep going with all your cleaning he might not like it but come to accept it?
LW what about the disposable bed pads then you wouldnt need to be cleaning the floor each morning? Nice to see you have another visitor.
LoisLane welcome to the thread - be sure to read post 1 & 2 for all the info to help you. Anything else then just ask.

Piggers dont knock it - she may be turning over a new leaf and realising she doesnt need all her stuff
had a busy day and prob done tooooooooooo much but need ed to catch up a bit.
had a very nice man from the OT dept and he is recommending a very fancy remote conttrolled seat thing for getting in and out of the bath - much more than I was expecting and he wants to try and get it here by friday - well chuffed. I havent had a bath in over 10 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:rotfl:
Had a different carer than was expecting at tea time - ended up trying to cheer her up because her DH has been made redundant at 57 and cant find a job - she left with 6 different suggestions of where to try for work for him - why do I get all their problems:(
it is still windy but much brighter and not as bad as yesterdayPeace will be mine

Dinner done for the kids, Kitchen S&S'd and Egon walked and fed. Time to sit down and have a cup of coffee."Let your boat of life be light, pack only what you need- A homely home and simple pleasures,one or two friends worth the name, someone to love and someone who loves you, a cat, a dog, a pipe or two enough to eat, enough to wear and a little more than enough to drink, as thirst is a dangerous thing" Jerome k.
