31st Jan – things sorted out, a silver lining for my friend.

Evening.

Today has been a good day. I had initially booked today of work to do a good top to bottom house clean. Very much needed given the lack of time I’ve had since… well before Christmas!

Time is something I really miss and need right now. As you know we’ve had stuff on every weekend since before Christmas. Last night we were asked to have kids, so this weekend my sister’s kids, next weekend, Paul’s sister’s young girls, weekend after, Paul’s sister’s lad.

I’m praying for a lock in the following week, no kids, no family, no friends. Nothing!

The result of my day off has not provided me with a beautifully clean home!

Instead, I finally got some financial stuff tidied up and organised, a very much surface clean only has almost been completed, nice lunch was had with mum and sis, visit to my friend was had, a burn to my finger tips, and we are just back in from taking my friend out of town to pick up two kitties.

About my friend and the kitties, for as long as I’ve known Angela she had always had cats, the last one died sometime ago. I think it was a good idea for her to get more now, given the loss of her husband. I think it’s true that some people take great comfort in their furry family members.

Paul is such a sweetheart, he was more than happy to help my friend out. As if I needed a reason to remember he is a wonderful and kind man.

As for my gums… not too bad today, I took some tablets at lunchtime, and then some after dinner tonight, but that’s been it. I think the corsodyl gel is helping!

I suspect a few of her videos may make it on to this blog 🤣

Anyway, on to my daily update!

Sleep – I had quite a few loo stops last night

Food – ok, I’ve slipped a bit today. Not with bad food, but with lack of good food!

I didn’t eat until lunch time, and being Friday it was lunch with mum. We didn’t go to our usual place, so I had to think about what to have.

I opted for lasagna and salad. Oh… and one of mums chips!

And then for dinner we had lightly dusted fish with oven cooked chips, beans and tender stem broccoli.

For some reason the fish stuck to the tray, so this is not the prettiest of photos, but tasty nonetheless.

And it was while cooking dinner that I was stupid enough to pick up a tray without a tea towel!

Had to cut up my dinner like a toddler so I can eat one handed 🤣

We took the hour drive to cats after dinner, so I put together a jar of cold water with a lot of ice so I could keep my finger submerged. I needed more cold water on the return home!

No exercise. There was going to be a walk tonight until my friend asked for help getting kitties.

Anyway, that’s my update for today.

G’night
