Arggghh

after yesterday fiasco I asked if we could get an early call to get DB up. A carer  came last night and shouted at me for 10 minutes about why we cannot pick and choose when the carers come........it was a request.....I did not ask to be shouted at for 10 minutes!! I have put in a request to speak to the person in charge.........rang at 9am, still waiting its now 10.30pm.

Carer came this morning just after 9am, helped DB to wash and dress, do not think she stopped talking from the minute she came in...... she actually told me what to do to report last nights debackle.

I have to go down to the council offices today and put in the paperwork they want for our claim. To be honest I am expecting it to be turned down. I know we are entitled to some relief, but knowing the council, they will try to find a way to deny it.

DD2 will be here tonight with our fish and chip supper........she was ill last week so I had to sort out some frozen fish and do a home made effort.

We are having heavy rain storms, rains heavily and then the sun comes out. We do need the rain for the garden.

  1. How outrageous and for shame that last night's "carer" shouted at you. He./she needs to be fired. There is no excuse for that. Good for this morning's carer to share the way to report that horrid behavior.
    Wishing you well in your dealings with the council and hope they grant your claim for more funds.
    Fish and chips - YUM!
    With our chilly mornings (well, chilly for me) and hot afternoons, I'm changing clothes and shoes twice a day at least. Some days when I'm cold in the evenings, I'm back in the morning's warmer clothes again. I've always been cold natured.

    Hugs!

  2. Oh gosh. That was despicable behaviour from a carer. So glad that the other carer was helpful. I've been a carer for 15 years. I would fire myself if I treated anyone like that. Please if you don't hear from their office manager. Go above them, and speak to the Head Office

Cooler

although the sun is shining, its forecast to be hotter this afternoon. A quieter day if DB stops asking me questions he has asked before.......
