Fri

Big sis phoned this morning to say she'd phoned to see how mum was and got told she was fine...She also wants more nighties taken in to her...Where the ones she has asked for big sis doesn't know so i will ask tomorrow when i take the set i washed tonight back up...Wasn't going to visit tomorrow but will nip up there with the pyjamas and dressing gown i took home today...She'll need the dressing gown as she only had one in with her...She was looking a bit better today and they have put drains back in...I don't want to go into exactly what and why is happening though...When we got there today i had to blink to find her in the ward...The room she is in has 6 beds in it and she was in the far left bed...It was empty!!!! took me a few seconds to realise she had been moved to the middle left bed DOH!!...She was pleased to see us though :o) ...No word about my uncle as i haven't seen anyone but i guess no news means he's either the same or at least hasn't got worse...Apparently my brother and his wife were going to visit her tonight...Guess what!!!! They haven't bothered to deign any of us with a phonecall to say how she is...I am NOT phoning him again, i don't care if am asked to phone him am not...If he moans tough...It is easier for me to just ignore and not bother with him as i live 70 miles from mum, sisters and him...Tried to phone little sis but her mobile was off...Shocked mum by wearing a skirt <gggg> Don't think she has seen me in a skirt for years n years LOL...Daughter told her that her next youth parliament meeting is being held in the wee village where i grew up and mum and big sis still live...Goodness knows why as there is nothing to do in the evenings unless you play golf or play bowls...It does have a nice beach and the BEST ice cream in the world though...Daughter is sorted for somewhere to live for it though...We left visiting mum early as she had 2 visitors from back home...Nice people just youngest couldn't cope with 2 strangers and said it was too crowded now...The man lovely lovely bloke who would do anything for anyone but he is one of these really earnest people who is a bit too in your face for my youngest to handle or cope with...They understood though as they know about the boys...Thank you everyone again for the kind comments left :o)

Rest of today lets see i went to the gym LOL...Did my weights workout today...Managed to do the leg extension one at the weight i have been supposed to be using for the last 6 weeks for first time ROFL...Got told on wed 10 lengths of the pool is enough of a cool down after all the weights so don't feel quite so knackered today...Also went to matalan to buy youngest those mid length trousers as he accidently ripped the ones i got him last week <sigh>...Washed the car tonight as when i got up this morning i think every single bird who lives around me decided to use my car as a loo...I swear there was more white on my car than the red it is LOL...After i came out of the gym it was even more white and after we got out of the hospital even more bird poo on it <sigh>...Acted like the mad woman and shouted up at the sky when i finished washing it 'Any of you birds **** on my car tonight and you are so dead' LOL...Maxwell got booted WAHAY!!!!! So didn't like him at all...The looks on Craig and Anthony faces was priceless ROFL...Daughter was watching UKTVStyle extreme makeover home edition...It was one i had seen before and i am not ashamed to say i cried again when watching it...They did up a house for a family where both the parents were deaf and the youngest son was blind and autistic...Most of the editions are moving but this one is especially moving...It's nice to see good in the world when so much horror is again in the headlines...I have changed my buddy icon from the autism ribbon to a black one for yesterday...Toodle Pip take care all xx

I am sure the birds wait deliberately till you have washed your car before they poop on it. They must go round looking for shiny, clean cars and only use dirty cars if they are desperate..............Jules xxxxx

Glad your Mum is doing well :o)
I've seen that one too, extreme makeover home edition.
I cry at all of them, but that one was particularly moving wasn't it.
It makes my heart feel happy to see such a family have wonderful things happen to them.  I did jumping up and down, and lots of woo hoo stuff last night when Maxwell's name was announced!!  I so didn't like him.  What a plonker!
