A bit of a change

 in the weather, still quite warm, but not the sun we had yesterday.

It was a new carer this morning, had not seen her before, as usual very good, both ready for breakfast by 8.45.

Not such a good night last night, late putting the light out, but still over 7 hours, so not too bad. I was awake with my right knee doing the fandango, took it a while to settle. I must remember to put the medication on my knees at lunch time, it does help.

Well today I have prepped and cooked chicken with red pepper. It will do two meals at least. We are having fish and chips tonight so I guess it will be chicken and rice tomorrow. DB has taken to having a dessert, so will do oranges in jelly, there is some ice crem in the freezer he can have it with the jelly.

We should have been up in Sheffield at the retreat........I will not be booking for any more, DB is just not fit to go, so its stay at home from now on. He is talking about going away for a few days, he cannot understand why I am reluctant to book anywhere. I got caught once before and ended up having to pay for the accomodation regardless......once bitten twice shy.

  1. It is interesting that some topical meds do help more if applied hours before bedtime.
    So sorry you had to miss the class in Sheffield and I hope you got a full refund when you had to cancel.
    Is there anywhere worth going that is only an hour or so away? It would be a change of scenery (if not climate) and perhaps DB could tolerate that? At his age, he might just have to get used to staying home and helping in the garden.
    DH is still coughing a lot but had no fever yesterday so maybe this flu is on its way out. Hope so. I seem okay ... so far!

    Hugs!
