And I'm back again,life's got really busy lately but hopefully things will calm down a bit now
I've been helping my daughter with the DGC so that's kept me busy,then there's work and meeting my mum etc etc
The newly cleared patio has been used for our first barbecue, it was really nice to be able to sit outside and eat
The weather has been scorching hot so I have spent lots of time lolling about reading because I've been too hot to do anything else
It was DGS1s second birthday on Saturday so went there for a party,it was lots of fun and he seemed to enjoy himself,his little cousin was there and they are so sweet together,there is only three weeks between them so they are close and my new DGS was born on the cousins birthday,she also has a new baby brother who is about 3 months old,I can see they will all be good friends as they grow up because they are all quite close in age
I bought DGS a wooden train track for his birthday and he loves it,my son in law sent me a video of him playing with it yesterday and he looked so cute
Yesterday I was working all day,it was a really nice shift actually which made a pleasant change,it's been really busy and challenging over the last few weeks with lots of 1-1 care being needed with some patients ,they have all gone onto various places now so it's calmed down ready for the next lot
I'm off today and tomorrow and today had been spent doing house stuff,so I've done all my washing and got it dried and back indoors before the forecast rain arrived,the kitchen and bathroom are sparkling clean and I have hoovered and polished the rest of the house,I can now chill out for a bit
The only fly in the ointment at the moment is that my poor little dog has hurt her back again,I had to take her back to the vets today,so she now has more meds and is on restricted exercise for 6 weeks, I think we went back to normal exercise too quickly and that has caused this setback,the good news is the vet doesn't think it's going to be a serious ongoing problem that will need continuous treatment, but that she will always have a problem that will flare up from time to time,we now have emergency treatment to give her when it happens then it's just rest and pain killers
The sad thing about this is my pet insurance won't cover this because she had her first episode in the first two weeks of the policy,so I'm using up my lovely flooring fund to pay for the treatment so far,she is more important than new flooring though so what will be will be
Tomorrow DD1 is coming over with the DGC for the day,we are supposed to going into town but the weather forecast is for thunder storms and rain so I'm not sure we will make it, I'm hoping it won't come in until the evening because I really need to shoppingOriginal Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,080.1 Owed = £11,549.91
