    Fell at the last post, as I succumbed to the red wine tonight after a stressful day which included taking mum to a dressing clinic (good news, she doesn't have to go again) then GP (blood and urine tests required, but too late to do those today), then bought a fold-up wheelchair on eBay for £25 (bargain) but it doubled our journey-time and I was starving by the time we got home. Why should that mean I reached for the red wine, though??? But I did.


    Mum has been informed (by me) that she's going with us to the kitchen showroom tomorrow *in wheelchair* I do hope it allows us to get out and about, as I'm feeling hemmed in at the moment.
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?
