Thank you for the kind wishes. I feel a bit of a fraud as I know lots of people have it worse than me. I am reserving the right to grumble a little bit as I am still on antibiotics - about three weeks so far - and father being desperate to come home so he can have alcohol is making me crave a strong drink myself!
Bear is also grumbly, tired, prone to feeling sorry for himself and under the weather. I'm doing a lot of humouring, negotiating and just putting my foot down. He seems to flag at this time of year, so I will be keeping a little eye on him.
Poor DH is really poorly! He has a foul cough and coughs turn bad for him. I have been fussing over him and keeping him warm, cuddled and dosed up with cough medicine (whisky). He is the one who really needs fuss at the moment.
I think we should sit and count our blessings, to be honest. We have a roof over our heads, we have food in the cupboards and home is a safe place. My father is safe, my uncle is actually quite safe and Christmas will be here soon.
Anyway, the next on the list is the garden. For father's sake I am going to get it tidied up and put in some winter pansies and bulbs. I'm looking forward to that, it will be fun.
