Well it is now Thursday
and I didn't do a post yesterday because I forgot, I did, however, go
to the nursing home and see my nan and we took with us two little
five year olds, Liarna and Temika and they had a ball running amuck
up and down the hallways and in and out of nan's room but unlike some
people neither mum or myself resorted to screaming at them, we just
took hold of them and told them to stop in a very firm voice. Did it
work kind-of they settled down a bit.
While we were there mum
and I went through nan's clothes she has a lot of clothes and she
doesn't wear any of them much now days as she is now bedridden and it
is only on some days that the staff get her out of bed, so mostly she
is in her nightgown, of which she has a bloody lot.
Mum and I decided to
take a few items of clothing that she had that looked near new and
not something she would wear even when they get her dressed as it is
near impossible for nan to have tops that go over her head, when they
put a top on her the staff prefer ones that button up as they are
easier to get on. I found a couple of tops that looked new that
would fit my daughter Kathy-Lee as they were a size 8 and I can tell
you nan is not a size 8 she has never been a size 8 the smallest she
has been is a size 10-12 so what was with the size 8 tops I don't
know.
This morning while on
my walk and it was a later walk then normal I didn't leave here till
around 8.30am because when the alarm went off at 6.30am I could hear
rain so I just rolled over and went back to sleep. What is with us
rolling over to go back to sleep why do we not just turn the alarm of
and go back to sleep without rolling over and changing our position
in bed, I know that I always roll over before going back to sleep,
what about others if you turn of your alarm and decide to stay in bed
do you have to change positions before you can go back to sleep.
Anyway I was talking
about my walk and not about going back to sleep, while I was walking
I noticed a number of sparrows diving at people like you see magpies
do but these were little sparrows, never seen the do that before, one
of my girls noticed them doing it yesterday not sure which daughter
it was but I do remember one of them mentioning it.
I cut my walk short
this morning as it started to rain again while I was out and I didn't
want to get wet I have been as you know not feeling the best and I
really didn't want to get wet and have to walk in wet clothes and end
up well and truly sick so I cut the walk short and came home.
Oh yeah yesterday
afternoon Blain was here for about an hour when he asked if he could
ring his Aunty Jessica and see if it would be ok for him to go over
to her place for the night, this was a surprise. She of course said
he could and she was here within 10 minutes to get him, she did,
however, say she didn't have much in the way of food and needed to go
to the shops and asked me if I would go down with her and run in so
she didn't have to get the boys out of the car and of course I said I
would. All she wanted was ham, bacon, cocktail frankfuts and eggs and
she forgot to mention the eggs and I didn't have my phone with me so
she couldn't ring and tell me and then they didn't have cheap
shortcut bacon so I ended up giving her my bacon an unopened 1kg
packet and the rest of my eggs.
Blain should be back
tonight though, which as you all know is fine with me we are used to
having him here now.
I do roll over, a lot. But Scrappy will wake up at 2-3 AM and ask to go under the covers so it evens out because I usually toot on him. But after the alarm? There's no coming back from that one...
ReplyDeleteYou toot on Scrappy you are luck he doesn't nip your bum
DeleteSometimes days go by like that--gone before you know it. I think those rainy days go by faster, too. ;)
ReplyDeleteYes a wet day either drags on or goes in a flash
DeleteInteresting you saw sparrows, they have been in short supply these later years.
ReplyDeleteBeen a lot of them are around at the moment
DeleteI'm glad you can fit a walk into your busy days.
ReplyDeleteSo am I but this morning it was another day that I found it raining when I got up so no walk at the moment
DeleteDearest Jo-Anne,
ReplyDeleteWishing you a lovely weekend!
Hugs,
Mariette
Thank you it has started of as a wet weekend but we will see how it pans out
DeleteFunny about the size 8 clothing! I wonder if the sparrows were agitated---must have been a nest nearby and they wanted people to stay away. Or perhaps a cat was nearby.
ReplyDeleteI never get to roll over. Someone is very insistent n my rising and feeding them.
