The day has finally come . After Jims dramatic tantrum last week where I had to lock myself in my bedroom for safety and the subsequent visits from his CPN , Jim has today gone to the Day centre it has not been an easy time waiting for this day he has done everything he can to get out of going but since the intervention of the CPN and family members who are now fully aware that Jim has these temper tantrums he knows he cannot talk his way out of going off for two days a week to give me some respite.
I literally ran down the drive and into the Car as soon as Jim left for the Day centre...I have been to the opticians and ordered my new Glasses ( it was either that or get myself a white Stick my sight was getting so bad.!!) been to the hairdressers and had my hair cut and blow dried and then called at a little cafe for a spot of lunch. Absolute bliss I am going to meet him at about three oclock and fingers crossed he has had a good time even if he says he will not go again it is worth all the hassle persuading him to go .just to have some time to myself. I shall keep you posted on how things have gone.
