Good afternoon, not long before it would become official to
say good evening in the UK. Gosh, what a busy day. I have decided to move the
furniture in our conservatory. Am I ready for my Darling Husbands criticism?
Yep, ready with my telling off and ready with my I don’t care attitude. He
hates me changing furniture. I know why too, as a blind person it’s rather disorienting
to come home and find everything moved, but I wouldn’t be so cruel. I have just
moved the dining table and the massage chair. And turned the heated trolley
around. Well, means everything gets cleaned properly, right? It’s took me all afternoon. Dusting and so
on. I’m exhausted, but I have a lovely teatime to look forward to, as the boys
are not in until eight, so Fifi time.
My Wagga has had all of her toys out this morning and early
afternoon, we went to the post box and chemist. It was awful, blind person’s
fog. The wind was dreadful. But Wagga did well. I must say, when I went out,
half way along our avenue of all sorts, I did want to turn back. My hair was a
foot in front of me and pulled me along, haha haha. It’s wild. Rained all
morning and you should hear my wind chimes? Hub hates them, but I bought them
when we first moved here so that we knew where our house was. Our dogs are
great but whilst they are learning a new area, like getting home, I would
rather know it myself. And at that time I had my little old Black beauty. Bless
her. She wasn’t quite connected when it came to coming home even our old house
that she lived in for some years, coming home for BB wasn’t always an option,
she would rather go on a long goose chase. Mind you, we never found any geese.
Just long country lanes, avenues of sensory sensations and
the odd river to tempt her luck. Whatever she felt like, yep, a free spirit was
my BB. As for me? I wasn’t really a good driver back then.
I’m still not wonderful, a bit of a learner.
Hub is away today working, so a very late return again. I
think it’s a three hour journey and two trains. That’s each way. Most of his colleagues
drive there, but he has a slight disadvantage…. Let’s just say, I wouldn’t want
to be on the roads if my Hub is behind a wheel. It benefits his organisation him
travelling by track as he works there and back. So a long day in the office.
He made me laugh yesterday when he was saying he was trying
to get his colleague to eat his healthy berries. It’s lovely to see how much he
gets on with them all. It’s not oftern that a team comes together in the way
they do. I believe that they will be a super team and one to look out for. With
their dedication and Hubs Loyalty and trust, let’s hope so anyway.
Teen? Got up from his pit at one. Ate brunch, showered and
went to work. He has had a busy day
yesterday. Went out with friends to the beach, came home, played football with
them then went to the gym and then tennis with friends.
I still have a really sore leg. Bumped it the other day. It’s
truly uncomfortable. Burning like mad. Just one of the daily experiences we
have to encounter.
Right, now then, yesterday, guess who came? Our gardener. At
last as the day went on it was getting darker by the minute. How do I know? I
can feel it. I thought, if they wait
much longer they won’t come again as it will rain. But thankfully, they came
and went. One and a half hours they were here. So £65. There were two of them.
Well, Hub opened the back patio door to go into the garden
with LC when he came from work. He almost went flying; the gardener left the
hose real, on the step just outside the door. So thankfully he was OK, today? I almost went
flying. Yep, a couple of birds we are. Why did I go flying? Well, as I went to
our bin, that had been moved and not put back, so I had to leave the bag of
rubbish outside, not in the bin. On my way back from the other side of the
house, I crashed into a garden chair. Then, as I stood that up, I found our
glass table. Right at the other side of the garden. As I went to the run with
the beautiful Waggatail, again, slam. Into the lounger this time. It had blown
over and again it was right near the run, and pre gardeners? About eight foot
away from there, so now I’m in the house and rather reluctant to go out until I
know all is safe. I will have to go out later when I am feeling more adventures. Now the worst thing is my glorious elephant
has been moved. About two foot from the conservatory. Thank God, I found that
and was able to put it back. I would have been very upset if that had broken.
They were nice though, it’s not their fault I can’t see.
They are coming back in two weeks to get rid of the weeds.
So what did they do yesterday? I’m not really sure. They said they sprayed the
weeds, but will take two weeks to let them die off and they said they cut a
couple of conifers out for me, but left the roots in the soil. Oh and they
trimmed a shrub. I know they will be fine, and I joked with them as they
learned I wanted an apple tree, he asked if I wanted him to get it? I told him
no, as I wouldn’t get it until Christmas. Hah. He didn’t’ laugh. Well, I have
been waiting six weeks for my garden to be done. They are a proper company so I
guess have a good reputation, so I’m sure I’m not being done this time. Also my friend recommended them to me.
My poor neighbour is still having a nightmare with her
builders. Well, they just haven’t turned up for over ten days. Now saying they
can’t do what she wants what she wanted from the start. They are proper cowboys.
And it’s not like she hasn’t paid much, I think for what they are doing, they are
expensive. It’s such a shame when this happens to people.
OK, must dash now, but stay safe wherever you are. Xx
