Busy doing nothing much

The Christmas decorations are down and the tree is packed away in its box ready to be hauled up into the attic. This is a two person job and as Mike wasn't feeling too well today that's a job for tomorrow as it's Saturday. I have finally finished cleaning my mother's rooms and only have the sitting room cutains to iron and hang tomorrow. When I saw her today she was feeling fed up and bored, the food was no longer 'good' and I was greeted with 'did you bring me a piece of Christmas cake' (would I forget). She was concerned that when I was cleaning I had thrown things away which she needed. I was very very tempted but I knew better than to risk it so I was very careful to put everything in piles or bags to be sorted when she comes home. I thought the 18 tins of salmon I found a bit excessive but she insists she needs to buy them when the opportunity arises. She was full of praise for the mobile hairdresser who washed and set her hair yesterday, I think this gave her a big boost. She has some more tests due on Monday and hopes to be home by the end of next week but I don't know if that's wishful thinking as none of the nurses could give me any definate information.

Sally (Sally-writes) if you read this I did catch some of your radio programme today. I set the timer for 11:45 so that I would be tuned in in time then found none of the radios in the house could pick up radio Forest of Dean. So I tuned in via the computer and listen while I had lunch and then kept popping back to listen to little snippets (interesting topics covered today).

Today is my son-in-law Joules birthday. He doesn't read blogs but just in case Happy Birthday Joules hope you had a good one.
