Progress not Perfection

I thought it might be jasmine when I looked at the picture but I'm not an expert.

I was thinking about you to when I saw the news. Just dreadful and it seems to be happening so often now in so many countries.

It may be a Mock Orange, proper name is Philadelphis. Spelling could well be wrong!!

Sorry, I cross-posted with you earlier. The news is awful.

Could the bush be a philadelphus ('mock orange')?

So glad I wasn't in Nottingham this morning, @Sun_Addict. I do need to go in for an appointment & a bit of shopping. Awful seeing city centre streets I've passed, crossed over & walked along so many times & thinking such a horrible series of attacks unfolded there.
Will be lighting a candle for those people tonight.

Thank you all I can vaguely remember planting a mock orange years ago but don’t remember it ever flowering so profusely before. I should really make a note of what I plant and where. 

It’s just terrible what happened this morning. Two of the dead are 19 yo students just coming back from a night out and in the wrong place at the wrong time 😢 Will be interesting to see if it’s the same man I saw last week walking through the city centre shouting and waving his arms about at 7am.

Awful news. I had forgotten about that but we have the comments of attracting people.

I sympathise with the cleaning up. Last week I’d changed my sons bed including washing the quilt and he had a leak sat on bed all through everything so I’m now spending a fortune trying different pull ups and pads 😱

awful what happened today, we not far away but don’t go into Nottingham 

hope you can look into some help. I fought for some but after I got funding I can’t find anywhere to spend it that’s suitable for him and doesn’t end up causing us more stress 🤷‍♀️

That plant is a philadelphus SA.  I have one but mine is not as big but it has flowered profusely in this weather.  My heart goes out to those who live in the Notts area and so tragic for those affected.  Good that Mr SA agreed to using incontinence products and hope that makes your life easier. Shame you cannot get him booked in anywhere to give you some respite.

That's Wednesday done. Have been in the office today, it was very quiet for a Wednesday.

Walked to/from work so that just over 17,000 steps done. Will clock up a few more as I'm going to the local action group committee meeting at a local pub. I don't really feel like going and it means I'll miss my Zumba class but a few things need sorting out and I need to make sure I don't get volunteered for anything in my absence. It should only be a short meeting, less than an hour, so not too bad I suppose.

I was debating with myself whether to buy a coffee from the work cafe. Felt a bit guilty buying one when I have coffee bags in my locker. Eventually cracked and went to fetch one only to find they were only taking cash as the card machine was broken. I only had a card on me so that was that. At least I saved £2.75 😆

Took Mr SA's too small canvas shoes back to L*dl so a £9.99 refund there. Had a voucher for the free loaf of bread so that was redeemed while I was there.

Received a statement from Oct0pus and the credit amount is going up nicely. 

11 weeks today we'll be in Zante 😎

There is a drug called desmopressin that's supposed to control urination. Might be worth asking the docs about it.
