He was self employed and working on a building alone. He’d just come down from the roof because he felt a bit funny, could’ve been so much worse. I begged him not to go to work that morning, he kept falling asleep at the table having his breakfast. Of course he ignored me 🙄I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)7

This from me too xxmilann said:It must have been so scary for you when he came home after having the seizure. I can’t believe he drove himself afterwards 😲 You have been through a lot in those 8 years - I take my hat off to you and think you deserve every holiday, nice bedroom....and more. 👏I am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.

Mr SA has got the football on tonight. He’s been sitting expectantly in his England shirt since 5pm so I gave in. The dog has finally gone to sleep after 3 trips to the park and running about in the garden all day. DD is having her first Covid vaccine tomorrow morning, her friend is taking her and they’re going for a coffee afterwards. I thought I might have to take her as she has agoraphobia and anxiety and won’t go anywhere on her own. DS and the GKs are meeting us in a local park on Saturday so will need to pick up some Easter eggs for the kids, will be brilliant to see them again, seems like ages.
