Hi all
Iona he is touring the country and I would highly recommend it.
Love to everyone, I am a bit brain dead, worked 10.5 hours yesterday and 8 today and there is a Teams call to do tonight. I have so much work to do. I have read your news just not absorbed much.
DH is keeping on top of the Flying. I have started a new exercise plan and that's going well. I am doing a big cycle ride at the end of June and need to push myself to get a bit fitter which won't do me any harm.
Right best get this Teams call out of the way then I can put my Pj's on.7 -

A few years ago it had got up to 4-6 years for assessment so they pulled in a bunch of private companies to catch up.. we went private for Dot ADHD assessment because that was 6 years and we needed it so we could get the EHCP in place before she started year 6.

I am now going to declutter a creme egg and do some knitting.Haven't been on for a few days as the days seem to go by in a whirl.I haven't been able to read all the posts properly but hugs to all who need them.I can't remember what I've done before today but this morning I went out and took some rubbish down and got the paper. I came back up and started to clean the kitchen. Whilst I was doing that the plumber arrived to try and sort out an issue we're having with the immersion heater. When he'd gone I finished cleaning the kitchen, cleaned the bathroom floor and vacc'd the sitting room and hall. Made lunch, washed up, took everything off the dining table and put the table cloth into the washing machine with various other things. A put on a clean cloth and we put everything back on the table. Changed the water in some flowersA pair of gloves I'd ordered arrived but they look to have a fault so I took photos and emailed them to the company I'd bought them from. Part-dried the table cloth and one of A's shirts before putting them on a drying rack. TD'd everything else. Made tea, washed up. Did some internet research before replying to an email sent by the clerk of the parish council that has responsibility for the cemetery where I want to bury my friend's ashes. Made supper (which included a Christmas pudding we didn't get round to eating over Christmas). Ate some Cadbury's giant buttonsPut another load of washing on and now about to wash up. Despite being really busy all day I've actually managed to do five lots of eye drops for A. Only the pre-bed routine now. A's shoulder is now hurting so he's wondering if the arthritis has gone there now. Maybe though it's just one of those pains that comes and then disappears - let's hope so.

Washed up the supper pots, did more TDing, set up A's breakfast things and put out his glasses, morning medication, radio and iPad so he's all set to go once he's up (which is way before me). Did A's final eye meds and helped him get into his night clothes and into bed. One final lot of TD'ing to put on and then I can go to bed too. Zzzz

Morning xx
Woken by my alarm again. I'm up, made my bed, packed my lunch, eaten breakfast, supped a brew, completed Wordle in 3, completed Connections (woot woot) ( we'll ignore the fact that the last connection was 'you're the only 4 left' 🤣)
I'll feed the birds and put out the recycling before I go to the paid stuff. Didn't do my stops on my way home last night as it was tipping with rain. I'll probably drop off DB's wedding invitations as I pass this morning- not going in as he's still recovering from whatever he had.
Have a good day
