Morning All
Hugs to all who want /need them
Thinking of Nels and hoping she is improving
Been a very difficult few weeks with Ddad
As you know he broke his hip 6 weeks ago he was moved to rehab last week and in Friday rushed to yet another hospital with another problem
Said hospital has zero visitor policy due to covid and yesterday I had a call as they said he wouldn't take medication
He needed a procedure yesterday which they didn't do in the end as he was so distressed
It took me 3 hours to get through yesterday to then be told he has been moved to a different ward😡
I know how busy they are but we are a long distance away and I had to be quite forceful in getting across that if he deteriorates I need to know sooner rather than later
Poor DH left him for a lie in today as he had me to deal with yesterday
Need to get the washing up to date today off tomorrow as was due to visit dad in rehab but not now happening but have loads to do around the house
Have has some sun this morning that has helped improve my mood
Have a good day all

Good morning all,
Very wet here today, had hoped to get out into the garden, my sister has given me some bluebell bulbs and 2 red gooseberry plants so need to put them in. Hopefully the rain will stop for a little while.
Other than that may just do a bit of cleaning and tidying.
Have a good day x8 -
Bright day - have just turned on the heating. Been to Church - about anti slavery this week.
I am making gnomes at the moment - cutting up a detachable fur collar to make beards. Mr F found a coat - on a street - I put it on our local lost and found but no response. I think it was dumped as the coat wasn't in good condition.Decluttering Achieved - 2023 - 10,364 Decluttering - 2024 - 8,365 August - 0/45

Hi everyone - just been having a catch up.
Little one stayed last night - it wasn't the best of nights - she was up and down like a yoyo! Crying because there was a pink balloon chasing her!, then crying as she'd had a poo in her nappy, then shouting was it morning and why was it dark - at 5am! I've felt shattered all day - she, on the other hand, has been full of life! Till she went for a nap about 3pm and was asleep within seconds.
We went down to mam and dads for lunch today as my brother from Newcastle was there - later she went home with DD and I've had a quiet couple of hours with my Sunday Times.
It'll be an early night I think. Off work for half term so I don't need to get up so early
