What a few days.

As you may know, Gary Mum has been having sine health issues, falls at night, trips to A&E, hospital appointments for various problems. To date they have found little. We have had numerous calls from her saying she cant cope, saying she wants to die. In the end the doctir has decided a short spell in respite care might help. She was happy as she thought it woyld be the end of her problems, now we are getting the guilt trip about putting her in there etc, poor Gary is at the end of his tether. She is forgetting things she has said or done, then shouting at us, saying its our fault. We try and understand as she is 80, but its a very stressful time for us all.

So please bear with me if i dont post that often.

Long time no see again !

Morning Bloggers

So much for my weekly roundups, life just gets in the way sometimes.

My life has been hectic, homelife, worklife and the Mother In Law, who has had several falls, numerous visits by her doctor, paramedics, visits to hospital both emergency and appointments. She is getting very forgetful, all part of growing old I suppose. I cant see it getting better in the future either, so deep breath !

I have lots of jobs I want to do at home, but not enough hours. I also want to get back to crafting be it card making, acrapbooking or sewing. Decluttering is also n my list of jobs to do, as it has been for months.

So I think I need to stop procrastinating, stop trying to organise and just get on with it.

Christmas is getting ever closer, which Im starting to think about, whether I should reduce who gets presents, the amounts spent, because to be honest, I know we dont give to receive, but some people hardly bother with sending us a card. I used to love going and buying that special gift, and I still do for the 'special people'.

We have just had a long weekend away in Bude, Cornwall. It was lovely, very relaxing. Just what we needed after the stress of previous months. Hartland Quay in N Devon is well worth a visit if you are ever in the area.

Thats all for today

Live, Love and Laugh
