            Morning
 Forecast seems to have changed now it will be light breezes instead of the storm predicted. Will be a relief for all the poor people who lost so much with the last storm
 Can you imagine how difficult it is stripping a double bed while you sit on it? Well I can assure you its not easy as I discovered this morning. I had a little maudlin moment thinking how easy it was when I could walk normally. Its all to help the cleaner who's in today would have taken her seconds so a bit daft really. Anyway its in the wash now so she can put some clean ones on.
 Thought I might have a go at my signature liver bacon and onions tonight but as I forgot to get it out of the freezer then it will have to be tomorrow Probably just have a pick and mix tea instead.
 Hope everyone has a good day10

 Oh no, so sorry xxHard_Up_Hester said:Coxy, no this was for someone with family problems after a bereavement. 
 Well you really couldn't make it up. Dad was prepped for surgery and intubated and then an emergency case came in so he's in ICU for another 24 hours, asleep. Op will now be at 1pm tomorrow. I foresee another sleepless night coming

            Had a busy day yesterday - visit to see my Dr and then visited the new Al.. store - couldn't find stuff so lots of moans from me. Looks like they have completely changed the store layout to how it was in the old store which had been there for 20 years so we could grab what we wanted quickly. Finished the day by having dinner at the SA and week 9 of a 12 week course.
 The harbour where I live is decorated again this year.
