Apologies for what will be a boring read for you but was actually quite a busy week for us. Tomorrow R and E have their birthday and as Daughter is working away and O is reenacting as his 1970s self we invited the girls with M and the dog here for a birthday dinner. You'll have to wait till next week to see how that went. E had decided to stay here afterwards as her moving in day. All her stuff has been heaped on top of all the bedroom full of the boxes they brought from their flat in Dorset a couple of years ago. She will be sleeping in two rooms here, the guest room upstairs will be ideal for a Sunday night then she won't get woken on Monday when the neighbours are sitting right outside for coffee morning, the rest of the week Hubby's office will become E's bedroom as it's more sociable down beside the dining room and garden if she doesn't have the energy to get out of bed, although it might be a little noisy at times, we'll have to try a few things to see what works best, and upstairs will make a good dressing room. Fingers crossed she's comfortable and feels at home.
Little rant from me...
I use the Optrex Dry Eye Spray very sparingly and it lasts for ages, however I have been using it more recently and when I need it nothing else will work.
As you can see it's tiny, just 10ml (half the cap is empty and a little liquid gets left behind because the tube isn't fully submerged into a corner).
£16!!! £16!!! £16!!!
We both had Specsavers this week, Hubby for his two year check and I requested a one year check as I'm getting really blurred vision. My optician did lots of investigating and discovered that the blurred vision is caused by the evil pills which has yet another side effect of severely drying my eyes so she prescribed eye drops which coat the eye and remain longer than the spray. When I came out Hubby had been waiting quite a while for me and we both went to choose frames as he needs a new prescription too. We go back to collect in a couple of weeks time.
Remember a couple of weeks ago friendKK asked Hubby to transfer old home videos onto DVDs well she wanted to pay him which of course he wouldn't take and he laughed and said he would accept a lemon drizzle cake and this week she turned up with a box full yummy, half went in the freezer too save temptation.
And the rest of the week has been emptying cupboards in both of E's rooms so that she can do some unpacking and have clothes to wear. I made a start and hung clothes up and found a few of her frogs to put on display and make her feel at home. Going to have to pace myself as I've an achy back now and my craft room looks a tip as that was the "don't know where to put it yet" place and more will need to go to the dump!
For now I'm going to enjoy this bank holiday weekend as we have guests every day and be very grateful for the really good weather forecast. Enjoy yours too.
