Hello all
Mr SA has been ok today apart from he had a panic attack when he woke up after a nap and didn't know where he was. He sent the carer home after an hour today as he wanted to doze.
Got up for work this morning and the cat and dog had got a mouse in the bathroom. I'm sure the cat catches them for the dog's entertainment. The dog did her Jack Russell duty, shook it and killed it. Then I went downstairs and the old cat had pooped on the dining room floor. Welcome to my world!I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0 -

Forgot to add yesterday that the shower broke too
Luckily less than a year old and Mira have been out to fix it today.
Was fast asleep last night when Mr SA woke me up to tell me he'd had an accident in the bathroom. He didn't make it to the toilet on time and had got in a mess and I quote "what was I going to do about his pyjamas". So got him to take his pyjamas downstairs himself and put them in the washing machine himself. Sorry Mr SA not my job!
Apart from that episode he seems a lot brighter today. We had a letter today saying his next care assessment is 6 November. He is adamant he doesn't need a carer any more.
The wills we had done arrived today - sent a shiver down my spine!I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0 -

Mr SA's scan appointment came through today, it's on Tuesday. He gave the carer the day off today and has done a bit of painting, not much but at least he's made an effort.
Really pleased as have got a rug, 8 cushions and 2 throws for the living room from BHS, all half price plus another 20% off, free delivery plus 5.5% Topcashback
Pizza Hut deal tonight £20 for 2 large pizzas, garlic bread and wedges with £10 off with "sorry we got it wrong" voucher (they didn't). Plenty left to freeze. Well worth £10.
Mr SA a bit odd tonight, he's started counting things like flowers on the wallpaper and dots on the digital clock!!! Plus I can't tell a word he's saying tonight.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0 -
I don't know if you are used to Mr SA being like that or not, but it always scares me silly when Mr Lucky goes 'odd' like that.
