Sunny again

15c is predicted for today, falling to 2c overnight. I have put the geraniums out in a sheltered spot, all the pots need watering which I will do later when the sun has gone down a bit.

SIL has finished the decorating for now, they are waiting for a plumber to fit a power shower before the bathroom gets the treatment. We are going over Sunday morning for a short visit. I have ordered a border collection of plants for them to be delivered direct.

DB is very tired again, he has spent most of the afternoon asleep.

I had a slightly better night's sleep last night.

Jumper for Sora is coming along, I have finished the sleeves and back, at the neck division on the front. I will sew it up when it's finished, then on to a bigger size for Emilio.

Fish and chips for supper, chocolate mousse for dessert.

My goodness

Its very warm, not much breeze, so very pleasant outside.

Coffee morning here yesterday, the afternoon was my 2 hours off, went to B & Qfor compost, they did not have what I wanted. Quick call at Lidl and then QD. I bought some more double knitting wool for a blanket I am planning. The bright turquoise spoke to me, I have knitted the back and part of a sleeve for a Jumper for Sora, I went back today to get 2 more balls for a jumper for Emillio.

DB is having a dizzy problem just now, it keeps ramping up, hey ho.

A bad night last night maybe tonight will be better.

The gates to the complex are stuck open, so no waiting for them to open. Hopefully will be repaired on Tuesday.

Supper tonight pork casserole with mash and veggies, chocolate mousse for dessert.

? Spring

Another lovely day, sunshine out 13c and the wind is getting up. Washing on the airer I front of the open window in the second bedroom

DB had problems swallowing at the weekend but Sunday and yesterday's supper went down OK. Egg and chips tonight, so will see how it goes. 

Friend came to sit with DB whilst I took the car to the garage, chap tested it, something to do with air intake, he reset it and switched on the engine no problem. Will book it in for MOT and service in June when it's due.

Not much going on in the complex, it seems quiet, will get the gossip when we go down to the coffee morning tomorrow.

Sunny, warm morning

Bad night for me was awake at 4am.......DB as usual never stirred.

Carer came very early this morning, as they did last night, we were still eating supper, so she had to wait whilst DB finished. He insisted he wanted fish and chips, but then had a problem swallowing them. I am going to ring the surgery on Monday and see if they can expedite the appointment for someone to come and see him. We cannot go on like this.

Cleaner came and is powering through the cleaning, we moved DB'S relaxer chair to clean underneath it. I nipped out to change the quilt cover I bought last week, no problem, I had the receipt, all done quickly.

Its quite warm in the sun, supposed to get up to 15c today.

DB will be going to scrabble this afternoon, I will try and get a nana nap in if I can. 

Supper tonight is shepherds pie, we will see how that goes down.

Windy

Wind is blowing our way, so have had to put the draft excluder against the front door, we get complaints otherwise.

DB is very subdued this morning, think I have got through him. I have told him that from now on he is only getting mashed down food, or stuff that's easy to swallow. Will see how long it is before he starts complaining again, he says he will manage chips tonight.......we will see!!

I nipped to Lidl for orange juice, I must be loosing it, I did not put any on the order yesterday. Picked up almost ripe pears and some plums. I need to remember not to go on a Friday again, it was rammed!! People everywhere, the lady in front of me had the belt full to overflowing.......huge bill at the end.

No plans for today, I managed a fair sleep last night.......according to my watch I was awake for an hour or so in the night, do not remember that. I get very little deep sleep, it's mostly light sleep.

So we have asked for cream cheese on a soft wholemeal roll for lunch. He wanted seeded ryvita, no way.........his usual yogurt and milk.....

Where has the week gone?

 Its Thursday, where the rest of the week went I do not know.

Lady came from the surgery to do an updated respect form for us both........ I spoke about DB's cough.......I am feeling very angry DB's behaviour is beginning to really affect me.

Sunny

 It has turned out to be a nice sunny day, till you go outside, the wind is vicious.

Lots of coming and going, at one point we had 3 post office vans on the car park.......

I am on the last lap of the jumpers for GGS 1 & 2, just doing the last front, then I have the neck to do and sew them both up, they can then go to the boys.

The smoke alarm went off yesterday, great fun, almost had the fire engines here, managed to stop them.........I managed to burn a pan, which is now in the bin. Cooked supper in the new ninja, well the roast spuds anyway, turned out nice and soft inside but crispy skin. Tonight is mince and mash with carrots and sweet corn. Chocolate mousse for dessert. I have mince for shepherds pie and alsi spag bol, in the freezer.

Library lady came with new library books for us. Elizabeth the hairdresser is coming tomorrow. DB looks like he is auditioing for Santa Clause, will not be sad to see his beard disappering.

No plans as yet to go out this week.
