I Think I Lost Wednesday Somewhere?

I am sure I am missing days somewhere! No I am not drinking and I certainly don’t have blackouts but I cannot believe that it is Thursday again! Wednesday flew by and I really think I stood still and like a train going through a station and not stopping, that was my Wednesday, I blinked and missed it!

My whole week this week has been thrown into chaos as I went to Eldest’s work on Tuesday because yesterday they were coming to fit a new gas meter to our home. Apparently the new meters have a battery in them which then sends the data to its hub for them to produce our bills. Sounds simple enough but when the batteries run out they cannot just replace the battery the whole thing has to be replaced. Now who came up with that idea? Normally I would be at Eldest’s on a Wednesday so that completely threw me. It does not take a lot these days for me to be completely confused! It is like when we have a long weekend, the next week just does not feel right.

So if Tuesday was Wednesday and Wednesday should have been Thursday then today should be Friday or should it be Monday again? Who knows.

Madam has decided that as it is dark most mornings we are getting up now, staying in bed is definitely the best idea! She is not happy when I move her to make it.

Everyone at the moment seems to have this bad cold/flu thing going around including Fiancé who I have not seen because, like Jayne, she is being extremely kind to me and not wanting to give it to me before I go in on Tuesday for my Op and I am very grateful to them. I have told DH that he is not to catch it either otherwise he and Coco will be sleeping outside if they do. I don’t mind afterwards if I catch it just not before.

Today is home jobs day. I have managed to get our work and Eldest’s work up to date. I also have some washing and a basket of ironing to do and then I am all set. This weekend DH is at the swimming event both days, so I am going to spend some time in my sewing room quilting and also reading. I won’t be able to show you what I am working on as they are for presents but will keep them in my file for when they have been given out. I am also going to pack my bag for Tuesday. I already have a few things sorted and I have chosen my books which I am taking in with me which I will show you tomorrow.

As it is #TBT (I think?) I thought I would show you these. Always on Birthdays the Boys used to come in our room to open their presents from us first thing inthe morning. So the first picture is from 2022 when they were both living at home again. Eldest is 27 and Youngest is 23 and it is DH’s Birthday. I am still in bed but DH and the Boys are up and dressed and ready to go to work, but they still came in to our room for DH to open his presents!

So the two pictures below, they are both Boys 10th Birthdays, the first one is Eldest and Youngest is six and in the second one Eldest is 14.

I love seeing pictures from the past. DH’s Birthday is coming up at the end of October and then we are busy with events too. There are the Carnival fireworks to conclude the 100 years of Carnival in the village, DH also has the usual Halloween Swimming Event and also the men are coming to trim the trees in our back garden as well, so it is going to be a very busy few weeks as always.
