It’s hard accepting that help is needed. Hugs 😻virtual and feline ones are the order of the day. I hope you felt better after the tears….my mum always said better out than in. I’m hoping you won’t be charged for the authorised hours you’ll get….but nothing would surprise me. Hope the new adaptions make a difference for you.
You definitely need a dog like seasides - complete with barrel of raspberry brandy…..can you train cats to bring barrels of brandy😻😂🤷🏻♀️January spends - £587.585 -

Another fall yesterday. Just lost my balance. As you do. A sore one as it was on the tiles in the conservatory. Feeling sorry for myself. My Incontinence is also dreadful at the moment.Sorry, I am struggling to be positive at the moment. The carpet cleaner is coming on Wednesday. Any form of money saving is out of the window.
