Far and Away

A jigsaw sounds like a good way to relax @Faith-and-Hope

I’ve been for a run with friends then out to breakfast and fruit / veg shopping at the markets.

Currently sitting in a/c before tackling the housework.

Hope you can relax this weekend @Zoe7 and don’t do too much.

💜💚💜

That is my plan for tomorrow @Eve7 I want to get as many of the little things done today that don't take too much time each but are annoying me not being done. I have the bracket up for my bike but had to refill one hole that wouldn't hold properly so will now need to leave that for a couple of days before I put my bike up. Have some gardening to do and some random pots, containers and wood to either store or throw out then the whole back wall of my house will be clear of everything but pot plants. It will make it easier to walk around as well so that will be an added bonus.

I have come to see S2 cos I picked up him mail for him and there was a parcel in it ..... he had forgotten he had asked to go out with me today ...... which happens sometimes too ..... 😔. All part of the recovery mix. He feels awful, so there is no point saying much. It just becomes a worse set-back. Waiting again. He's not ready to go, and it might change again.

Baby steps ......

@Zoe7 @Eve7 @Snowie @Shaz51 @Anastasia

Well done @Zoe7

Your garden will be looking great especially around the back wall.

I am about to finish clearing out my bedroom so I can downsize.

It does happen @Faith-and-Hope especially when we are not doing so well so I can understand S2 forgetting. It really is baby steps but he is taking them so every one is a step in the right direction even though it doesn't always seem so. He is so very lucky to have you Hon - you are so patient and caring

@Eve7 How long before you downsize to the smaller place?

All pots, containers and wood sorted, pot plants moved against the wall and the empty ones moved to shelves. Have a couple of plants to plant in the garden and a few more things to throw out then that will pretty much be it for today ...getting tired so the rest of the gardening can wait.

I can go when I’m ready @Zoe7 . I own the property I’m moving to (well it has a mortgage) and I’ve had it rented out while I was off work.

S2 is moving into big house with his family and S1 has bought his own place.

You can take your time then @Eve7 so there is no pressure on you to do more than you can, when you can. I am still cleaning out stuff I moved when I bought this house. I came from a one bedroom flat but had a shed outside and a balcony that was pretty full. I also had things stored near the back fence (was there 16 years). I had to move pretty quickly as my lease was up before I got the keys to the house ...but they gave me 2 extra weeks to move but I didn't have a lot of time to pack and move with work also. As a result I didn't throw anything out - just packed the lot and moved it all. I am slowly getting through it all and have made at least 4 trips to the tip sorting it all out.

Have planted my plants now and swept the back so it is now all clear of rubbish, pots and plants other than those in the pots. Going to finish sorting things I have in the wheelbarrow, mow the backyard before the rain comes, then water the pots and newly planted plants, have a well earned shower and settle in for the day with getting school work started. I am nearly done @Faith-and-Hope @Snowie @Eve7 👍😁

@Snowie I know you do not want any replies but wanted to say to you Hon you are not too far gone - not in the slightest - just feels that way sometimes. We all love and care for you very much and am here with you

We went ..... ✔️ Mission accomplished for today. He came out and we ate out 🎉

@Zoe7 @Eve7 @Snowie @Shaz51 @Anastasia

Agreed @Snowie ^^^^ 💞💞💞 love you !!

That is great news @Faith-and-Hope I am so glad S2 decided to go out with you and even better he ate something - that is progress and also some quality time for you both 😁💕

Have finished sorting out the wheelbarrow and mowed the backyard (the front doesn't need it just yet), just have to water my plants I just planted and then I can have a shower before I feed the fur babies and settle inside for the evening. I think I will sleep early tonight as I am really tired now. Will take my meds early too as I need to have a couple of early nights to prepare to get up early again for work.
