Forecast was for 20 - 30 cms of rain, it is hissing down. Yesterday was sunny but very cold and windy, I was going to take DB out but having been out myself I decided aginst it, good job, it threw it down for about an hour, water everywhere, thankfully not in the apartment.
DB seems to have recovered from his 'attack' on Wednesday night, he has been ok since. Managed to get him to walk to the fench foors and back each time he used the commode, so not bad.
I am very tired, 4 hours last night, hope for better tonight. Carer rang to say she was going to be late, she got lost looking for a new patient. Had already given DB his breakfast apart from his coffee.
Washing machine loaded to do a wash tonight, will dry it on the airer. Have had to put our DD up for the electric now we are using the heaters as and when required. The living room one I have set at 20c so if the temperature drops it kicks in. So far it has not been too bad. I am looking at buying a couple of hot water bottles, I had to throw the old ones away, they perish after so long.
Supper tonight chicken and bacon pie with some extra chicken. I have a gammon joint out defrosting, will cook it later for tomorrow and wrap up the rest for the freezer. I am planning on buting a pork joint from Aldi this week, will cook and slice it for sandwiches and main meals over the next few weeks.
Waiting to hear from the tax people about DB's tax, I will have to fill the forms in he cannot do it himself, I will also have to sign them.
Need to sort out the rest of the christmas cards, will have to post the ones to DD1 etc, unless they are going to come over, which I doubt, they are busy clearing out stuff the will not need when they get into their new bungalow.
Am glad to hear that DB is improving and able to walk a bit more. Hope that continues. You were wise not to take him out and get both of you wet!
ReplyDeleteAlso hope you get lots more restful sleep, whether a nap, overnight, or both.
Isn't it amazing to outlive your hot water bottles?!
When will DD1 and family move into their new home? I wish them well!
As always, your meals sound delicious. Lucky DB!
Yesterday our high was 6.0*C but the wind was so cold it must have been from the arctic. The low last night was -6.5*C. Today will be about the same but without that wind, thank goodness.
We're off to the library later and am always glad to be back home.
No, the doll quilts and baby quilt aren't finished. Doll quilts need the hand stitched binding completed and the quilt isn't machine quilted yet. Lupus fatigue is to blame and suppose I'm still in the annoying flare. Bother!
Hugs!
