The Retirement Thread

[Drago]

I have risen!

Good morning all fellow retirees.
Cloudy and overcast this morning and a bit cool.
All the usual stuff to do today.

Line of duty is wonderful. Keeping us guessing right to the end.

Stay safe everyone

Good morning one and all,
Weather is good, I’ll try a run/walk this morning before I get too distracted with my self imposed shed refurb. The outside has been painted “Willow “ these past few years, I quite like a nice “Cornflower Blue” though Mrs Tenkaykev is not too keen.
Onwards we go…
Stay safe folks ☀️☀️👍

Morning all.
Another good nights sleep interrupted only by pee breaks.
Washing in the machine.
Dry washing is folded.
Sun is shining, god is in his heaven....what more can we have ??

Do you fit inside? Is the machine very big? Are you very small?

No no no.... I am not doing the washing IN the machine. the washing is IN the machine

Same here, the washing machine is doing its thing at the moment.
Hopefully the weather is going to brighten up later so I can get it out on the line.

Washing on here as well, front bedroom curtains are in at the moment, last washed in the Autumn, three loads to do today. Carers been, breakfast eaten, my Good ladies having her breakfast as I type, tablets to hand out next, and then the lounge to mop, kitchen floor to steam mop, and bedrooms to vacuum as well this morning.

Yet another nice day ahead.
Off to the Doom Bar and Polzeath this morning.
Still no sign of Rick Stein.

Morning all, have very mixed feelings this morning, had a very strange day yesterday.
I had a early from my mums Lifeline control than my mum had a fall again and the paramedics had been called . I went over and she had been checked over and she was fine but I decided because of this and other problems I would have to phone social services today to get her reviewed with a view to getting her into a care home.
Later in the day I have another call from Lifeline , I see the number and I expect to to be told she had another fall, only to be told she had passed away.
She had been cooking her dinner and was found sat on the seat on her walker in the kitchen.
So I am very sad today ( there might just be tears in my eyes as I write this ) but glad she died with dignity in her own home rather than after a fall or in a care home.
Sorry for the down beat post 😢
