Gem’s walks are getting shorter and shorter. Yesterday, she managed ten mins - she used to be at least 20 mins. She has her summer haircut but I still think it’s a little warm for her. I’m going to try taking her out earlier in the day when it’s cooler.Good morning - Teddy is out for a sniff with Emily. Can’t call it a walk because it’s sooooo short but nevertheless it’s a sniff for his brain stimulus. He ate a little more yesterday and he went to loo so he had a better day. Praise be!
Hope Gem is a little better xxx

Really getting the full meaning of ‘let sleeping dogs lie’ at the moment.
Hope you feel better soon 🤍Girls, hospitalised today with a blood infection
Will be having IV antibiotics as soon as a doc sees me. In bed now in near empty ward.
Had a horrible week feeling weak and feeble.
Meanwhile Toxics are sending me pics from South of France. Holiday I had to cancel.
Oh no! Awful for you. You must be feeling so dreadful. Are you still in an almost empty ward? Not sure if it’s better to be alone when feeling wretched or to have company nearby to help possibly feel a little more upbeat. Are they treating you well?Girls, hospitalised today with a blood infection

You poor, poor love - that is miserable for you. I really hope the IV antibiotics sort this out. It’s really hard for you enduring such aggressive treatment let alone this setback. Really hope you feel better soon. Please keep us posted.Girls, hospitalised today with a blood infection

Yes, they know. The one posting is on her 3rd holiday this year. They know I can't fly.Oh no! Awful for you. You must be feeling so dreadful. Are you still in an almost empty ward?

The frocking Toxics are just appalling! Do they know you are in hospital? Frankly, and this is only my opinion - it doesn’t mean I’m right - but they probably weren’t the kind of people to go on holiday with in the first place. Maybe you have been spared in some way…
I really hope you feel better soon. Thinking of you such a lot.
Sending big hugs and pillow fluffing…

Well they should know better then!Yes, they know. The one posting is on her 3rd holiday this year. They know I can't fly.
I've been moved to a ward of 6 with respiratory issues....all pretty elderly...
Update...I've been moved to a side room on my own.
Don’t give the Toxics a thought. They are not worthy.Yes, they know. The one posting is on her 3rd holiday this year. They know I can't fly.

I'm in isolation (Infectious Diseases) but actually the bug in my blood is a common one.Don’t give the Toxics a thought. They are not worthy.
A side room sounds better? How are you today?
I’m sure your pyjamas are the talk of the ward. Our girl always bringing the style!I'm in isolation (Infectious Diseases) but actually the bug in my blood is a common one.
I have felt fine, never had a temperature or anything. Will explain elsewhere but the weak and feeble stuff was from my immunotherapy not this infection and on Friday morning I was in the garden.
On room is better...own bathroom, no snoring, coughing, talking. I have IV every 6 hrs so midnight, 6am, noon etc, observations and bloods taken but nobody else's interruptions.
Wearing own pyjamas which have been widely admired
That's a shame if you have to go alone.....I’m sure your pyjamas are the talk of the ward. Our girl always bringing the style!
The thing that galls me about the snorers is they are usually the first to be given the private room after torturing everyone else! I’m glad you got the side room - justice has prevailed. It might do you good to get a little rest as you’ve been dealing with the reno non-stop. Breathe and reboot as they say.
I’m heading to my nephew’s Communion later. It’s a nice, sunny day. They lucked out for the bouncy castle. Communions are a fortune - I’m forking out €100 which is pretty standard. Back in the day you got a hard boiled sweet and rosary beads. I’m hoping my daughter will come with me as I don’t want to rock up on my own. She’s been out two nights in a row so highly unlikely.
Honestly, you deserve a rest.That's a shame if you have to go alone.....
As for cost...times have changed. It takes a lot of money to do anything now. Cost seems to equate to enjoyment.
I have overheard some very bad case histories here and I feel a fraud as I look healthyand feel healthy. Trying to look glam!
I'm reading your book recommendation..The Caretakers ...thanks for that. I had started it but have been able to get stuck in now.
The ‘ick in the box” comment reminded me of Lips Boo Font.How naff is your home? The new middle-class interiors clichés designers hate https://www.telegraph.co.uk/interiors/home/middle-class-interiors-cliches-how-naff-is-your-home/
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this article. I laughed out loud as every one of my design aspirations was slammed!
My friend Julie visited at 1.30pm and left just after 4pm.
So funny @Oops - I do the same - I write a chapter and then forget to post?!Oh - Chicago looms…Something else to have on your mind! I never knew which worried me more - when they were grown up or when they were little. I still worry now but NEVER EVER mention it or tell either of them. I remember once they were both up in planes returning to UK separately but at the same time of day. One from Sweden and one from Thailand - I was in bits. I didn’t know who to worry about more. I don't think it ever stops. Then they have children and off you go again…🫣
I watched one of those grim vlogs for the first time in ages yesterday and was utterly appalled! Wasn’t it AWFUL? Ughhhh! Un-be-flopping-lieveable…
I thought the Communion would be good for you. The sun was out too which always helps so much.
(NB I wrote this two days ago and have just realised now that I forgot to press send! Is there any hope for me? )
