Morning Elasti and those to come
Today is a mostly at home day, I have to go to the post office & chemist, but that wont take long. After a crazy-busy weekend, a quiet day is exactly what is needed.
Hope everyone has a great day

A positive pic for a Monday because i have the day off-YAY
Hi Everyone Medusa- I also had a crazy weekend and am so glad my DColleague wanted to swap my Wednesday this week. How exciting having DDs drawing on T.V, She is just gorgeous! Elasti- dont those weeds just go nuts this time of year. Are your DC still on hols?maybe DD could help? Yesterday we helped DD25 move into a new apartment and then we took them to LaPorchettas for dinner. DS20 and DD29 and her DH helped too DGD was just a delightful distraction haha. I was so exhausted I went to bed at 9.15pm and slept solid to 8am! The walls and kitchen cupboards in the apartment were filthy but we had no option but to move the girls in as they hadn’t renewed the lease on the old place and this morning after they’d rung the lying property estate agent who said he himself sent cleaners in and inspected it I rang the real estate agents myself. Lets just say i can be quite firm and authoritative if I need to (probably translates to being a b#$%h ) and spoke to the leading Property Manager. I know Sys had to do a lot of cleaning before inspections and moving out and DD25 had spent days cleaning her old place Usually on a Wednesday I have DGD all day so i should be able to get more done today! I want to do something in the ZONE as next weekend we have DFs from the city staying the night after we take then on a wine tour of the Yarra valley. I won’t be able to do Zone on Sat and Fri I will do an extra special WHB. I might change their sheets Thurs after work. Gee and Shellie says she has a long post So today..

Good Morning Ladies
Had a pretty relaxed day yesterday (well FLYingwise), only did the basics. It was really warm here, so I decided it was time to try on the 3/4 summer jeans. NOTHING FIT. So now I have a pile of pants to take in, a pile of pants to donate, and a pile of tops to donate. I ended up going to KMart and got 2 new pairs of Capri pants THAT FIT (no need for adjustments anywhere) and they are lovely and cool, which is good as we are having another hot day today, westerly winds and all.
DMum got taken to hospital again yesterday by Ambulance. She had called in the morning saying she had a headache so was just going to rest for the day. Then at about 2pm she called again but was really confused. Couldn't string a sentence real well, couldn't remember Medication names or specifics about lunch. So I called the Ambulance. She is admitted now and they suspect a Bladder infection. The confusion is often seen with this. She is more 'herself' this morning and has only a sketchy memory of yesterday. The Ambulance guy was awesome. He rang me to get particulars (my number is keyed into Mums phone, just 1 button with my name on it). And then the Dr in the ER was also so lovely when he called. Hopefully it will only be a short stay as germy hospitals are not really somewhere we want her to be.
Today I have an appointment at DMum's with the ACAT (in home care) providers. They need to access her home for their OH&S requirements. They will provide cleaning, personal care and some food prep and washing for up to 5hrs per week. It will be good to know someone else is regularly seeing her and checking on her. And it will free up our time together to just 'visit' or to do shopping/Dr visits/errands, etc. My morning was just a bunch of phone calls contacting all the services she currently gets (meals of wheels/personal care). It will be nice to have it mostly coming from the one agency.
Ok, long post, sorry. Time to hang load 2 and get ready to head over to DMum's. Wishing you all a Marvelous Monday.

Good morning Shellie How exciting to noticeably lose so much weight- you go girl!! Sorry to hear that DM is again in hospital- she is so fortunate to have you around to help out so much! Thats great that she can have so much care and you dont have to do it all. You are her DD not her DNurse and it is important for you to just sit and visit with her! Have a Great day! x

So as its my Wednesday today i thought I should do my ANTI-PROCRASTINATION task and decided to go to opp shop and to a place that alters clothes- no I dont have Shellie’s excuse of losing weight- I bought my travel pants on-line and our sizes are different than other countries’ but i love them as they are anti-stain, quick drying and zip off into shorts. They just fall off me especially when I have my phone in my pocket haha. The shop has moved and I dont know where to so I went to a plant nursery instead Now I have 3 more to plant and I will have to go to the bigger, further away shopping centre instead to get my pants altered. But not today as I was a little underdressed- trakky daks and thongs but i did get rid of a big bag of stuff to the opp shop Its a lovely, sunny day here- hope you’ve got a good one too!! x
