For all your supportive comments.
Allegra, I hope things improve for you soon
There is something else rumbling along underneath that I cannot write about because there are legal issues involved.
Moving day tomorrow, weather permitting, we can move in the cold and rain though it isn't pleasant but if the wind is blowing it makes moving very challenging.
Scrimping and saving, ranting and raving. Past retirement age.

Heaven forbid
That I should find something amusing.
Let's face it my life is so easy and enjoyable.
This week a relative has received a cancer diagnosis.
An old friend has been involved in a bad crash and is still in hospital.
Another friend has been medically retired as his ankles have crumbled.
My ex tenant is still not happy with her new landlord.
I'm trying to support a neighbour who may become homeless soon through no fault of her own.
I'm short on sleep and still dealing with the ongoing health problems CHS is dealing with, he is still waiting for an appointment that was promised five months ago.

More training needed
My grandson is 15, he had a supply teacher in class today, while she handed out pens, he kindly wrote on the whiteboard how many pens she'd giving out, 15... he wrote pen15 (penis) on the board and she thanked him!
He then realised that on the back of the worksheet, there was a QR code, which took him to a PDF with the answers on... Seriously, had she not taught teenagers before

We have power
The solar panels are on and working.
It's taken almost 2 days but they are worth it, I can run my washing machine when we are on the cut.

Solar panels
The solar panels arrived at 9pm and CHS thinks they are too big. Anyone got a wall I can bang my head against?
We paid £84 for delivery to get them in time for the engineer to fit them!

What Three Words
Last night just before 11 o'clock my phone rang. Dd2 was at her sister's when she realised she didn't have her door key.
I have a spare so could she come and collect it. Of course I said yes, but finding the boat can be difficult especially when it's dark and wet.
Fortunately I recently downloaded an app to my phone called What Three Words.
I found us on their map, worked out the nearest place she and her sister could park safely and text her the three words.
I then got dressed and waited for her to phone and say she was on her way. I then galloped along the towpath to the meeting point.
Once she arrived I gave her my car key a torch and her spare key so she could drive herself home and her sister could also go straight home

Not feeling well
I'm not feeling well this evening, nothing specific, just a bit queasy and shaky. I will try for a quiet day tomorrow.
Yesterday I helped at stroke club, quiche, salad and chips for 22 people. I did the teas and coffees too, one for everyone when they arrive and another one after lunch.
We visited a local dog rescue place today, they were very nice, helpful but didn't have anything suitable for us at the moment.
CHS received a phone call from work this morning, HR they want him to go in for an interview about possibly returning to work, they also want to arrange an occupational health visit for him.
This caused him a huge amount of stress and it has made the day very difficult, he has been argumentative and stroppy ever since, and guess who gets the backlash, yep, me.
