Took physio’s advice and had insoles fitted to my running shoes today. Had a very short jog to try them out, they feel Ok I’ll see what the longer distances do in due course. Nothing to do with sport but I bought a dome thingy to stop squirrels climbing up the pole to get bird […]
The Govt are now planning much tighter restrictions in parts of England from next Monday following Scotland’s decision to enforce a two week lockdown. However, plans at present are to localise restrictions where the cases are increasing the most. This at present is the North East and North West and some areas of the Midlands. […]
I visited Mum yesterday and once we had the hearing aid sorted again I had a lovely hour with her. I showed her videos of Mike’s boys playing their instruments and she was really happy and enjoyed it all. I will be writing a guidance note for staff to help them deal with the hearing […]
Our second chance to visit Mike and family after last week’s problems with Sue. Another wet and windy day today so we just went for the afternoon for tea and cakes. Sue and Philippa each made a cake so that was Ok. Not much left after the boys demolished them! It was great to see […]
Weather overcast but storm seems to have passed us by. Sue doing OK once again no dizziness, hope it stays that way. I sorted out some more of Mum’s clothes to take in on Monday. Whilst in the loft, looking around I decided that it needs a big tidy up. However, a little at a […]
Storm Alex brought loads of rain today so Sue and I had quiet day at home. Sue has had no more dizzy spells, so again fingers crossed. She did some cooking, I caught up a bit on a few online jobs. I managed to get our two day hotel break sorted so we are booked […]
A hectic couple of days. On Sunday morning before we were due to visit Mike and family. Sue went to bathroom, fainted and banged her head. She came round within a minute but was sick. Back to bed but she was not well at all. Cancelled the trip and I monitored her during the day. […]
Good visit to Mum today. Usual start – dizziness etc but she couldn’t hear me at all. I was told to move further away from her by the staff due to the Covid rules. 2m is a long distance from someone who can’t hear. I checked her hearing aid and the battery was dead. Staff […]
The good news is that her car passed the MOT today. So it should after only 17, 000 miles on the clock since new. The not so good news is that it needs a new air con condenser – over £1900, New Cam Belt – £549, Break fluid change £69. I decided to pay for […]
We were due to visit Mike and family today but sadly, Sue was not well. She had an uncomfortable tummy night, then this morning had some sickness. She has spent the day in bed and I have had a lazy day keeping an eye on her. As I write this at 7.30 pm she is […]
