Sunshine and showers

Sue here today so Penny got a lay in this morning. Sue has been very busy this morning doing all those little jobs I want done and dwell on because I can't do them. Like wiping the skirting board of cat hair. I can see it from my bed in the dining room and for some reason it becomes the most important thing in the world until it is done. Having said that it's the small things in life that are the best, like the first cup of tea in the morning. Drinks go straight down the PEG and into my tummy. I am sure I can taste it. I had thought not being able to drink a cup of tea would be too much to bear but I was also very concerned about how I would cope if I ever lost my voice. However, with technology and my gadgets we have all adapted very well.

My dad went to the ENT consultant yesterday. He had a stroke 16 months ago and has made such a good recovery. He has residue issues but been very lucky in getting back on his feet.

Josie came this morning, she is now fully trained in hot water bottles and drink giving. She makes me laugh with family antics and stories of their not so bright cat, Button.

Ali reminded me of the Shrewsbury flower show last year. It rained so heavy we took shelter in the portacabin disabled toilet. Enjoying Chelsea Flower show on the telly instead this year.

My garden looks very beautiful, so colourful.

Ah as no surprise, we had a door knocker back but fortunately Sue was still here to see him off.

And my portable oxygen arrived, very excited as I can go shopping without concern of being in Bob on bouncy roads. So for me today more sunshine than showers.
