Yikes @Shaz51, that's a lot of hassle and expense for one day! Can you get your hearing aid sorted without too much difficulty?

I need the flowers today Shaz51 ... 😓
We had three days of simmering moodiness, punctuated by some spectacular blow-ups, last weekend. That was followed by a week of relative peace as a misunderstanding had my husband pacified, without our awareness that that was carrying us forward.
Well, that misunderstanding surfaced this morning / afternoon with some more spectacular results and I am waiting for the dust to settle while he is out on his evening run, and our "errant" daughter has taken off somewhere else to recover, hopefully.
All a bit vague, I know, but I suspect something is going to fall apart before too much longer, and it's a process we have to go through, unfortunately, as the true nature of this illness comes to the surface.
I have made another appointment to see the psychologist to bring him up to speed.
Hubby goes away for three weeks in a couple of days, so there is our next spot of respite.
Paddling on.
My favourite colour is "Cerese". Gonna find some roses that colour for my vase on the kitchen bench. Maybe paint my nails that colour too.
