Funny old day.
20/08/2013 14:03
We finally got to the shops last night to get the photos for Biggey and Middley's bus passes and we had a lovely girly run in the car, with a poke of chips for them on the way home - still no cooker lol. They came home, got their bags ready with their new pens and pencils and Middley got her purse...

Supposed to be cleaning the cupboard out :o/
19/08/2013 14:08
With my head in the cupboard that needs clearing for the gas man I started to think (dangerous I know)...
I've come to the conclusion that my flump of a mood is directed at Dementia, and just how isolating and lonely it can be as a Carer. Dementia just doesn't rob the person suffering from it (and...

Some bright spark...
19/08/2013 12:27
Well the cooker from Gumtree is still sat in the kitchen not connected to anything because it turns out that some bright spark thought it would be easier to disconnect the pipe from the gas when they changed the heating system a few months ago. What the reason for this is I do not know, but the...

It doesn't happen often - thank God.

Hubby doesn't drink. If he does it's only a can of lager every now and again, but yesterday he went out with his old workmates. Five hours later I'm waiting outside the pub because I've never ever gone into a pub or rang him to chivvy him up, and I'm not starting now.
So 45 mins after the time he...

It's taken me a while to write this one.
16/08/2013 12:13
A little while ago, whilst on Twitter, I saw a post by the wonderful Lee. It had an article from the BBC News (read me) and it really, really set me thinking. I don't go looking for things about Dementia online. I tend to keep my head buried in the sand, sometimes because things don't really...

I can't decide.
15/08/2013 13:55
I follow the lovely Dementia Journeys on Twitter, and read an article by Beth Britton, another lovely lady that I follow this morning (read me). This article set me thinking (you can mock lol).
It's about sex and Dementia. The cogs started turning once I'd read it. Now I know that...

Well the Lemon worked...
14/08/2013 20:36
Yay - peace throughout the house because the scent of Lemon's meant that I had been busy and tidied and not sat on my a@@e all day. Happy me. Happy me until Biggey turned around on the sofa and knocked over the candle (Lemon of course) and sent wax down the wallpaper (the wallpaper that took three...

He's slightly unsettled.
14/08/2013 12:04
I always know when hubby is a little unsettled or worried. It's comes through in his behaviour (rather than forgetting more), and we've gone back over a little bit in the "you're not doing enough around the house" remarks. They are constant at the moment. He's back to worrying about money again...

Feeling verified.
13/08/2013 09:44
Morning. Yesterday I had my whinge about the falling out with my brother. Today I'm feeling verified for being upset by him because hubby has not given me wrong for it. I was expecting all hell to break loose and was waiting for the fall out when we got home, but it hasn't happened. All he has said...

Feeling flat.
12/08/2013 15:15
I'm in a tizz with myself to be honest. It's funny how something someone else says can have a knock on effect with your mood. For the first time in a very long time it wasn't hubby that has caused this feeling in me.
I went to my mum's house on Friday night for a weekend down there with hubby, the...
