and i can still pick fault with myself. nothing is ever good enough, theres always something else i should have done. thats one of my faults and since my back has been bad, ive tried very hard to work on.

the house is clean but just wanted to do extra, which isnt necessary just my stupid pride. talked myself out of it now. maybe my older son can cut the grass and he can go out there with the toys ive collected. might be a better idea. could go to the park with him this time. im struggling at the moment to do the basics as i ache and cant sleep. nearly finished the cardi and my husband bought me some pink to do a blanket next. ive arthritis in my hands so it keeps them moving.I know you will want the house clean especially with a grandson coming too but do remember they are coming to see you not a pristine immaculate house so if you can compromise a little so you don’t end up in loads of pain with your back whilst they are visiting. I know it is hard when you want it looking nice but it would also be good to enjoy the visit without too much pain.
Well done on the knitting.
ive had enough trouble sat on the settee today. hope its better tomorrow once the new patch kicks in and extra painkillers tonight.Glad to hear you have talked yourself out of it. Sleep deprivation is not good especially if caused by even more pain due to excess housework - clean is good. Hopefully we will have some lovely weather and time can be spent outside.
good morning @MaNaAk my stomach feels better and got my own plate out last night! another bad night where i was in pain and woke up every couple of hours and took ages to go back to sleep again. i had to change the patch last night and i hoping it will kick in today. took and extra painkiller last night but nothing worked to relieve it. it doesnt help that the other knee i had a partial replacement is playing up as well. my ramp came so im going to pick up my paper soon. using my stick helps but i feel like an old lady.

i know, hes already wound me up, i put the washing out and put the kettle on on my way. he sat there waiting for me to finish so i could make a cup of tea. i am not a waitress and i told him. im changing his bed and that it is. i sit down and do most of it but ive told him he needs to help. great start to the day.
At this point if you're able to you could just go up the road on the scooter.i know, hes already wound me up, i put the washing out and put the kettle on on my way. he sat there waiting for me to finish so i could make a cup of tea. i am not a waitress and i told him. im changing his bed and that it is. i sit down and do most of it but ive told him he needs to help. great start to the day.

I’m so glad that there is some good news! You go girl?hes made me a cup of tea to make up for earlier. i have been careful with my back and leg and at least the pain has reduced. got birth and marriage cert copies through the post so got the documents. he goes to mens shed tomorrow so a break in the morning. phoned bus company and i can actually my scooter on the bus so can go a bit further. its a tiny bit long but should be enough to turn and park it. friday, im hoping to go a bit further than the local shops. it got me out of the situation this morning and the new ramp is a lot better and easier.
thankyou @TNJJ the pain is settling as well after sitting down for quite a while and watching what im doing. the morphine patch seems to have kick in as well so a day tomorrow resting should sort it but im will have to be more carefulI’m so glad that there is some good news! You go girl?
thank youi changed his bed but that is it today. tomorrow im doing nothing. im learning i have to limit what i do which is frustrating. ive started decluttering my bedroom so i can take some light stuff when i go out on friday.I am glad to hear that the pain is easing, that he made you a cup of tea, that the new ramps arrived and that you will be able to go further as it can go on the bus. So I hope you have rested a bit today so that when he goes to men shed tomorrow you can really enjoy that break.
good morning @MaNaAk no i will be off out. i can actually take it on the bus according to the bus company which means i can go further. back still aching although not so bad. i didnt sleep too well with it so ive put washing out and thats my lot for today.
