Jaffa has you wrapped round his paw, HVDY, but it’s a mutually rewarding relationship, clearly. Today sounded a super day for all, nice one…all the family, aw, lovely.
I’m really glad you ventured to ask DH something, Ellie Anne, something quite reasonable, and so hope he responds. But I hope the green yuk disappears as soon as possible - those ant b’s clearly needed, do get more if it does not clear up.
So glad it was sorted, Scardeycat. What I feel about help like that is that I’m good with it as long as I’ve broadly understood what was done, the process, as its not “out of your hands” but more a “leg up”. Its my sister the visit this Thursday to Devon, but this morning I’m the meeting felt determined I really want to see DS et all more often and must prioritise it as soon as confident at making arrangements in the future. Sis wouldnt mind me cancelling, but the DGC would.

I’d be interested in how well the coverless one washes, Sweetpeasue good idea there. yes 7 tog will get in, as long as all the polywhatsit stays in place. I hope Aunt takes to the carers, my ex MiL resisted at first then became quite attached to a couple of them and anyway it was that or a home.
Phew….. Good for back thumping DH on the case.
I sense that Son and DiL are appreciating your and DH’s love and concern. You cant do much, but you can and do care and enquire and comfort.
No, there isn’t anything like it to join, HVDY there is of course the Central Meeting with Quakers if as time goes on its a good idea, but not really until it all moves on and I know what is happening to and about MrA. There is no comparable faith group, with no creed or organised services.
(BTW Doodle of course historically and still for most Quakers its basically based in the Christian tradition as in the New Testament and its messages of compassionate love, but one can interpret the bible in many ways, and draw on other sources, or just our very own spirits within us.)
By chance it was a very small meeting today with “Difficult D” not there and a very good one.
Because at the end I was talking to one women and it rapidly got onto MH and before I knew it all 5 of us were talking openly about self or N and D and Mental Health just as in accepting it as normal, and not just depression, but bi polar too.
I also really tackled my boundaries after that, parked at the gym on the edge of town, and actually walked into and through part of town for a City wide Quaker and friends Womens Peace meeting and havent done that alone for as many years as I can recall.
No counting chickens, could be a one off or a deliberate self wrecking by over doing it (I was pretty vocal at the meeting, it was heading for a cosy chat about the old days, not how can we work for peace now.)
We’ll see what tomorrow brings, probably not a lot after today, except, Scaredycat the item on the list that says, “sort Sky out” …but it's financial not techie.
