C-o-G, I am delighted to say that I have joined the list of 'lovely' NHS patients, according to the copy I received of the letter sent to my GP after my last horse piddle appointment

As if anyone would doubt it!

I made tea and washed up, gave A his eye meds, made supper and washed up now it's time to re-start the night time eye routine, put out A's breakfast things, clean my teeth and that's it. Night all.

Morning all.

@Narc0lepsy I did see the link - thank you. I haven't had an opportunity to look at it properly yet but I shall do. I did notice that it is not far from Welwyn, where one of A's cousins lives. I wonder if she knows it - I will ask her.

I'm only about 15miles from Welwyn but nobody's ever heard of our village - even a few miles away!

- Gym swim this morning.
- Renewed library books.
- Did some gardening.
- Spent ages chatting to NDN after fence man came and said they don't do the posts we need any more. Big debate as to what we will have instead; not impressed.   It is meant to be done tomorrow, 3rd time lucky.
- Turned Sunday's roast chicken carcase into soup, I'd put it in the slow cooker yesterday and let it cool overnight so it was easy to pick out the bones, blend it and tip it in a bag for the freezer.
- put together paperwork for tomorrow's assessment.
- progressing well with final report (until tomorrow's one!).

so DD found an injured pigeon, which we have taken to a rescue.  It might not make but at least it will have a peaceful end and i scored some more mum points…for caring.  

Ironed all dried laundry.  today was dry all day, which wasn’t forecast.  And i have eaten salad and not been ‘unwell’.

CoG thank you, scarf appreciated! You can be my Jiminy Cricket for the night xx

Jazee sorry, that’s me getting muddled, I still won’t be able to make it which I am so gutted about. Be good all of you xx

Paid stuff today but i hope to WUALTD first.  And decide what tea will be.

Well my house is FUUUULLLL to bursting.. I have a sofa.. in my hallfway!!!! .. with a Dot slobbed on it.
I have 2 very stressed and frightened cats.. we are keeping them in the room with DD1 and GF so they are with someone 24/7.. I am surprised Jackson survived the night tbh. They look like they have been starved.. one 'only drinks milk' ... oh dear he has a runny bum... I wonder why!!  Anyway.. he has had his last milk.. he has drank loads of water and is now merrily scarfing cat food and The other I put his mothers blanket out for him to sleep on so he is calmer but looks to be in heart failure. but he 'just licks jelly off the food' ... he has had some of our cat food and a lot of water. The food they had out looked like dog food, big rubbery chunks of meat.. which is not what MIL fed them.. Mine only eat Felix so I will grab some senior stuff and some yumove and see what we can do.. trying to get them in  vet. Mine are delighted to have new friends!

DW on

OH fed.. and he took the van back.

We have a CS run to do.. some miirrors to hang up, including one from step-FIL's parents house via his sister.. some boxes to empty.. I grabbed all the unwanted towels.. so I can bin my holey ones! This brings me joy! I need to sort bedding too.

I was TOLD I couldn't take MIL's wool stash.. so I took it anyway.. SIL can't use it and OH said I can have it.. so I did.. I left some I was unlikely to use but honestly I won't be told what I can and cannot do. I also took hundreds of photos of OH when he was small out of the recycle bin and all MIL's diaries.. apparently her sister had told SIL to bin them.. so she put them in the recycling.. but OH wanted them.. so I dug them out.. he had as much right to them as her. I had asked for a dozen or so items to make memory bears for the children and SIL had 'sorted out' some ratty old knitted cardigans.. utterly useless for cutting up obviously.. I was NOT impressed.. we we went through what was there and took half a dozen bits and I asked her to send me a dozen more things through the post.. jersey/polycottons so I can make 6 bears.. I am not happy.. I wanted to do her one as well so it isn't as though I want to keep it all myself. They are disgusting just want it to sell yet it is not theirs to sell it is part of the estate and OH is entitled to half.. honestly, had they not had eyeballs on me I would have picked up a whole back and taken it.. or maybe 2 because I can!

Anyway.. we need cat litter/food/vet, CS and to dig out my house for the secnd time in a week lol.

Hello all.  

Back to work today.  In the house I've done all level ones and twos so far, now on level threes.

Goodness, what a lot of drama piggers. Hope it all sorts itself out.

Where's @roundtuit ?

This morning I drove to a friend's place to collect an Easter gift and on the way home I went to church and then bought the paper and collected a prescription for A. Once home I made lunch, decluttered some Easter chocolate and WUPA everything. I'm not sure where the afternoon has gone as I don't seem to have done anything much but it's gone 5 o'clock already.

Hi all

Yes, where is Round?   Let us know that you are OK love.

Funny day at the paid stuff, just couldn't settle to anything and felt very unmotivated. 

Have done some laundry, dusted a little and changed our bed.

Oh and I called at the doctors because I have a carrier bag of medication that DS doesn't need but they won't take controlled medication so I have to go back tomorrow and find out what to do with it.  I am determined to get DSs room sorted.
