Hello, everyone!

Helian, could you research taxi firms or even your local hospital, to see if they can recommend an organisation who provides transport for wheelchair users? We have one, called Freedom Wheels, who provides a "taxi" service in specially modified vehicles for wheelchair users and also for people with disabilities. Maybe there's something like that near you?

Trissie, predictive text is a pain! :lol: Sorry about the work emergency.

Laura, getting days mixed up can be quite discombobulating. Hoping you feel more peaceful soon!

L.Ann, will having Little Bit home all the time make it easier or more difficult for you? Either way, I'm sure you'll have some fun times together this summer.

Waving to Bama and Peaches!

It's been another good day. I spent the morning in the garden, and the temperature was just perfect. DH made cheese and tomato on toast for lunch. ๐Ÿ˜‹This afternoon I found somewhere free to park, and had time to drop off my donations at the library's beauty bank.

Now I'm home, and I'm sitting in my garden while I type DF E's article for the parish magazine. Next on the list will be to fold laundry and then feed everyone.

Does the nursing home provide transportation, helian? The one my DM is at will provide it for a cost although they prefer to set up the appointments themself so they are sure they have a wheelchair vehicle available. They will also send a staff member with the patient if that is needed. Our local buses also do specific doctor runs but that has to be set up in advance and availability can be tricky.

Either way works with Little Bit, kittykatt. I prefer notice so that I am sure we have fun things to do. Little Bit says Grandma and I go places. We donโ€™t just stay home. :lol: We are busy this summerโ€ฆ. She has 3 weeks of camp, 2 weeks of swim lessons and we are going to visit DD40 and her crowd for a week. June and July are pretty full. That just leaves August when we may get tired of each other! :lol:

Only 2 more cabinets to goโ€ฆ. One will be a quick one and the other one is the cabinet under the sink with all the cleaning supplies so that will take a bit longer and needs to be inventoried.

Ugh. It's been one thing after another all day long. I did have 1 student sign up to take the exit test; there was a lot of messaging back and forth early this afternoon about it. And after class, LH (another teacher and a friend) was having a mini break down, so I stayed late to chat and give her a hug. Then, I was a little late to the exit test. I'm done now - finished at 5 pm. I had a snack bc I didn't even have time to eat a proper lunch earlier. Other things that have landed on my plate today: a document from the NH to sign that has small errors in it - I want to clarify with them first; an email from elder cousin J who tends to over-function - this is regarding an issue with farmland (broken irrigation well pump, I think) my mom and his late father, my uncle, share -- I didn't have time to be dragged into drama. Fortunately, he included the trustee in the email chain who responded very level-headedly for our party. The AIR test draft has been returned with a request for a specific sort of Q; I need to go craft a few of those Qs and then take out some other Qs before I can finalize the test. Lastly, I think I left my sweater at the coffee shop this morning; they don't have a phone listed on their website, so I'm going to have to go back there and see if it's still there. I'm doing that now. :roll:

Helian that sounds like a complicated day. I hope you find your sweater.

Lann that is amazing you go places to keep little bit active. I don't know if I could keep that pace with lil j. He's not big enough yet and I am not retired so there is that.

Well I'm home. Oh boy I wish I knew what to do. I don't think I have to do anything. But there's too much drama going on at work. Kid workers needing motivation but my new older guy is needing an attitude adjustment. Yikes. I am going to have to talk to management again that is not acceptable. I can stay out of it cause I am completely on my own job description but goodness...

On to better things. We are all off now for long weekend. I don't know what we're going to get done. It's not going to be super nice out. We'll see maybe it's going to be scheming and planning and inside work.

I am having coffee and then dog walk and figure out supper. I need to do a better job of the kitchen and such but i did floors and moved the plants this morning. So maybe tomorrow I can clean the living room rug and put some shelves up etc.

Take meat out for supper and Defrost
Finish coffee and Casper walk.
Empty and reload dw
Finish tidying kitchen all the way
Help ds with supper
Fold laundry reboot
