Rushes.

 

Gotta do just that. Bye for now.

I should be cooking. I'll got for 'Mockingbird'

Save Me

 

Got to give myself a good shaking.

Back to the demos. 'No More' for the next minute.

Rushes....must get moving

'Big Feather Bed' my temperature is still up and I'd just like to go in there. There may still be problems when I surfaced but, they'd have moved on a bit.

If you took to your bed, you'd still worry about them.

I'd probably have to get up to deal with them.. It's the idea of hibernating which is really appealing.

Is your mum still with you? Is she making any better progress?

She's fine. She's lost a few pounds which already makes the walking better. She's also been out for an hour with me every day while Dave has watched his dad. 20 mins walk each way and sit for a drink for 20 mins. She is getting stronger every day.

 

I'm trying to get Dave's Dad to cover himself up a bit before his meals. He want to feed himself but, half of it ends up down him and not in him. I'm still making him get up and dressed each day, so his clothes look really bad by the end of the day. He says it's making him like a child covering his clothes but, adults wear napkings and serviettes when they eat.

 

In a few weeks time, I'm going to be unable to catch my Mum

Could your Mum eventually help with Dad or don't they get on?

Mum is ne4ver going to get well enough to help with Dad. She makes him a cup ot tea at times but, I'm not having her running around after him. He's a different generation and sees her as a young woman. Her stroke has meant that she can do a lot less than she should be able to at her age. I've just had a bath, after 5 mins, he fell, she tried to lift him and now both are sitting exhausted and shaken. I ended up having to get Dave to help to get them both sitting down and checked. She should know better, he should not try and show off and he knows he shouldn't ask her to try and lift him, she has no strength in her left side but her mind still thinks she's capapble of anything. Well, tha's one thing they have in common. Believe me, kids are easier, normally.

 

At the same time I had a call from my daughter because things were getting really awkward and we've had to try and sort that out too. I'm now sitting typing, dripping wet and waiting for the next phone call. I just knew it was going to be one of those days.

You did know and you'd worked out the optimum solution - hibernation.

Big Feather bed for Meg and all the family....keep them out of mischief

I bet it wouldn't.

I'm on automatic. I think I might just Freefall into bed tonight

'Freefall' is breaking free and changing direction. nice dream. I think I'll go for 'Mercury Rising' at the moment.

Family - can't live with them, can't live without them. If I did a Freefall and broke free tomorrow, I'd feel so guilty, I'd just land myself back with the same responsibilities.

still laughing in the rain

I can't have that. For the 4th day, we've no rain to laugh in.
