Funny ol'day


Today as been quite eventful really. had to take Dad to the hospital for a venus section, or to have his blood drained off, as he likes to put it. Bless! On the way home I had to stop the car to pick up an elderly lady who had fallen on the pavement. She told me that she wanted to just sit for a while and I was happy with that, but another lady stopped her car (and blocked the road). She took over and made the injured lady stand up. When I thought about it later I was mad that I wasn't more forceful. It turned out that the lady couldn't walk. the interfering lady had to go and move her car when another woman came and took over and was much more sensible, she ran to the chemist nearby and got a chair whilst I supported the injured lady. She found it difficult to sit down and we thought maybe she had hurt her hip. An ambulance was called and I continued on my journey to take Dad home. Later I had to go back to the hospital for my scan so it was a theme for the day, won't have results for a while.

Here is yesterdays page for LSNED. It is of our rescue cat Daisy, she was absolutely petrified of everything when we had her and gradually I have won her confidence, but she will only come to me and let me pick her up. We have had her since January and it has been slow progress with her. Yesterday was a major breakthrough when she went to Steve and wanted to be picked up. He was so chuffed, as I was too. Another hurdle jumped, I was beginning to think that she would only ever come to me. She is better with visitors now too and will poke her nose around the door to look at them, whereas before she would be out the catlap in a flash and hide in the garden. She is a lovely cat. Very gentle and loving and so sweet. I am so glad that we rescued her, it wouldn't be home now without her and Jack our other cat too.
