  • Captain Awkward is good. Made me sad. It is easy to forget what good friends we were. I knew taking on the rabbits would make it difficult. I believed her when she said she was skint. I knew she was having a hard time post break up but I was having a hard time with Mum. Taking the rabbits was the thing I did to help. I couldn't go out at the drop of a hat or get drunk mid week (never could do that to be fair!) She has other friends! There was covid for God's sake. Friendships come to an end I guess. 

    Oh why is everything so hard and uncomfortable *blows massive raspberry*

    Today was a decent day. I have moved the living room round. Almost got to the point of having a useable table. Poor Mum. She is frail and tired and confused. I feel like I have left sorting this house too late for her. She just doesn't care or know, being in that much pain can't be right. I am going to have to get up early tomorrow to finish off the room and hoover. and do more washing. 

    I think I am ok, just tired and bit disappointed. 

    Can I just say I am watching Jack Reacher - the TV series and the bloke playing Reacher is just ridiculously sexy. Like off the chart sexy. Unfreaking believable. 


    Tom Cruise?
    No, although I do like him in the films, this is a TV show on...... Prime I think. And he is HOT. 
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    Massive improvement on Tom Cruise!


  • Tomorrow is food delivery, living room, some shed time, maybe tip... (oh the excitement!) 
    Tuesday is Tip, conservatory 
    Wednesday my room and dentist for mum
    Thursday more upstairs generally and the shed since currently it isn't raining then. 
    Friday - Tip
    Today was a mixed success. I didn't go to the tip, it was raining so much and am loathe to drive in the rain unless it is an emergency. 

    Tonight I have cleaned the kitchen and done my washing. I do like the living room and the hall. And the fact that the measuring guy liked my fish tank. 
    Nevertheless she persisted.
