Well Haven't posted here for a while, nothing at all to do with the toilet details HONEST
For the past week I have been so cross (for cross read, angry, fuming, murderous)
I went to my evening class last week, having arranged for a great grandson to pop in and microwave a meal and keep Tom company for a while.
The possibility of me having a short break arose again and now we are at the situation of Tom being insistent that one of the great grandsons who stayed while I was away lied through his teeth to score brownie points. No way does he ever get up and get dressed in the middle of the night.. absolutely no way that he needs anyone here.. so next Tuesday I will call his bluff..(he will only be on his own for just over two hours, he should be safe) but not happy and he will not like eating at 5pm
I have broached (ie a brick-wall) of finding a SW away from the main SS office and approaching the local blind institute for one of their SWs although I realize that they will expect when they arrive an elderly blind chair bound person ( I hope David Blunkett never gets AD, he is as Tom was a successful person, albeit without sight)
It may sound stupid especially with my perceived animosity, but if I am to have a break I need to know that, one, Tom is safe and Two, that his independence is not compromised further.
I am afraid I rather let the side down on Friday as I ranted that if he could remember so clearly what had occurred last November why couldn't he remember what I had told him to do 10 minutes before.. I think the words fishwife and cow spring to mind'
I really am not being as good as I should be, as Tom would verify, if he could remember
Sorry for such a big moan, but it has been a pig of a week
I see from other posts, that I'm not on my own this week.
