    Human Alarm clock at 5.40
    Not a big improvement.
    Sent DS up to sleep in my room as he didn't get back from work until about 3.30 this morning.
    I'm having a cuppa and using TV to occupy my little monsters and then we will build the train track.

    My wedding fitting has postponed today, so no major to dos by any set time.

    Starting to feel stronger at last. The combination of the virus and the problems of life really had knocked me for six.
    Here is hoping that this next week will be the last of the inquisition and intrusive work and that once they have filed their reports we can get on and have a few weeks of peace for the rest of the year.
    Dgds foot seems to be finally sorted and only muscle strengthening exercises to do. So when they go back to school this week she will finally get to her classes again and not be stuck in inclusion. (Learning Support).
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    Ss, the suggestion that your Dr give you an internal is utterly outrageous! Of course, they want to be as sure as anyone can be that you will be around for the boys for a long time (although no-one ever has that guarantee) but I can think of no good reason to include a pelvic exam in that :mad:

    I'm sorry that you still have more of these interrogations to come, I naively thought that was the end of it :(

    I'm glad you all enjoyed Malificent. OH and I saw the first one, on a cruise, a few years ago and are looking forward to seeing the new one. I can't sit comfortably for long, so I prefer to wait and see these things at home.

    Why on earth would they expect your Dr to do an internal.
    That is really just beyond belief.
    Glad that you are going to speak to your solicitor.

    As long as you are looking past it and not directly at it. ! Don't want to damage your eyes.
    I missed my session this morning as I had to let DS use my room to sleep and my lamp is beside my bed.
    I have been to Coventry this afternoon and bought myself a new to me car.
    I have to be able to fit the children in the car and be able to go out and about with the family. Alas I will have to sell my little sports car.
    But life moves on.

    Next chapter

    Probably be another 15 years!
    I have the old car parked on my Mums drive. I shall clear it out, clean it up, probably put a car cover on it and see what happens over the winter and with our situation and decide if I will sell it or run it in the summer.

    DS had the children this morning while I went to check on Mum, do her shopping, washing etc. My weekly shop etc and back then to take over the family again.
    It's nice to see the sun is out.
    Although I had thought about what I shall do this afternoon, I actually feel like having a read, doing my hair dye, and planning for next week. I know that is quite risky. But I need to plan.
    But first that needs a cup of tea while the children go visit their other granny.

    Never did get my hair done.
    I watched Christmas movies on the tv instead.

    I am going to bed soon to meditate etc. Before the start of next week.

    Slow start as disruptive night with the wee ones.
    Then I was going to go out to the workshop when Mum got her stairlift stuck halfway up the stairs.
    So I have been over to hers, sorted out the lift, changed her bed and put the washing on. I will go back tomorrow and empty it.
    So I have just got home and will make lunch now before I get out to the workshop.
    How did I ever have time to run a busy shop before?
