Happy Mothering Sunday everyone, from a wet ( again) Glasgow.
Yesterday I had a surprise visit from Dollie, DD1 and DIL with flowers and chocolates. She was in top form, full of mischief and nonsense. However, as three local schools have new Coronovirus cases in the infant classes and a now child in Dollie's class, a fourth school, has a sibling who has tasted positive, my son kept her at the bottom of the drive. It's very worrying, when we were hoping for an easing of restrictions.
Last night I received the most beautiful, pink themed bouquet from DD and SIL, despite them having already given me other gifts earlier in the day.
I'm hoping to hear from DS2 later. He was born on Mothering Sunday, but often forgets Mothering Sunday. He has a special place in my heart, having twice suffered anaphylaxis and we never expected him to grow up to be a six foot, red bearded, strapping Highlander!
Not not prone to displays of emotion, I do know he loves his old mum. I think he had planned to visit me, (fiancée's influence) not realising that he still can't, because it means crossing county lines. ?
Ashcombe, to put such effort into making the blanket, shows how loved you are by your son's partner.
The fairy doors are finished, so hopefully DH can put them up for me. Because they are for Dollie's enjoyment, I can be assured, he will not procrastinate! ?
Another day of pottering, reading the Sunday papers and chilling. I wasn't too well yesterday, so hopefully some rest today is the answer, as tomorrow is the BIG one and a half hour dental appointment. I can't postpone it at this late date, even if I do feel unwell.
Tonight, we are having takeaway, I am refusing to cook! DH says I can choose, (very benevolent of him), so it will be Chinese.
Mick, as someone with a serious heart condition, I'm curious to know what an ESG machine is. I thought I had had a shot of all the machines. Have you thought of getting a smart watch? I am able to track my steps and heart rate and it encourages me to rest when I'm over exerting myself.
It will be worth all the discomfort of wearing a monitor to get a better picture of what is happening with your heart, especially as actually getting hospital appointments is still problematic for many of us.
Thinking of all who who have sorrows today, especially mums who are estranged, today must be a very sad one for you?.
I'm awaiting breakfast in bed, complete with the Sunday papers, brought by DH. Changed days for someone who used to have all the housework done by 9am! ?
Wishing everyone a pleasant Sunday. I'm off to read everyone's posts.
