Birthday

60 years ago today my eldest daughter came into the world, a very different world to today. Cloth nappies, hand knitted and sewn layette, in hospital for 10 days, not a foot to the ground unless changing nappies or going to the toilet........ how things have changed since then.

DD is on holiday with her family, so I know she will have a lovely day.

Yesterday was sunshine and showers, I ended up finishing the laundry in the dryer, we just managed to get it in before an absolutely tremendous heavy downpour.

We had a bit of a start to the day yesterday, I noticed that our neighbours curtains were still drawn to at the back of 9am, which was very unusual for her, she is usually up before we are. I decided to ring her son, he phoned back to say that there was no answer and would I let myself in and see what was going on, as he was speaking I saw the curtains in the living room open, so he rang he back. Apparently she had a very bad night and had slept in.....thankfully all was well, phew.

A call from the Dr asking how DB was, he has put the increased dose of medication on repeat, if there are any more problems we are to contact him again, otherwise report to the Doctor when he goes for his OP appointment in December.

Supper tonight is quiche and salad, no dessert.
