Facebook Archives are a bit thin at the times we’ve been away on holiday, so this is a couple of days early, but has plenty for readers to chew on.
I’m going
to be busy tomorrow and Saturday so expect nothing, and then we’re away for a
week.
From
Facebook Archives…
It's been
a funny few days.
On Monday
I made an appointment for Ferretfingers to have his ankle X-rayed as the
scar keeps getting infected (11 April).
Yesterday
morning I took Ferretfingers to have his teeth scraped and
the dentist who did Thunderthighs's fillings was there. We're still waiting for an appointment to have
his wisdom tooth damaged molar removed under sedation and a lump came off it
last week (no pain). I had a word and he
suggested I make an appointment and he'd have a look and maybe 'tidy it up' a
bit.
When he got home Thunderthighs
agreed so today I made him an appointment for that (13 April 2.30 as I have a
mammogram screen at 10.30).
Strangely,
somehow when dialling the dental surgery number I got through to the Heart
Transplant surgical Unit which was confusing to both concerned.
This
morning I had a Carer's Review at my GP surgery, and I now have to measure my
blood pressure for a week. At least she
didn't want to take blood.
Then to
Sainsbury's with Thunderthighs and down to Ouseburn Farm to collect the
knitting I forgot on Tuesday afternoon.
This
afternoon the lovely Mabel from LDNE came to talk about Ferretfingers's weight/health/diet and ways we
might help him (if only certain persons would stop feeding him quite so much
carbs).
Later Mrs
Eft and her dog called for tea and a visit - during which Bigsister rang.
There's
been an awful lot of talking today, no wonder I'm thirsty.
Off to
watch rubbish on tv.
There may
be drink taken.
Oh and Fester
is lying on the bed snoring (trouser and shoe less but don't tell
Mrs Leftfoot)
Mrs Poet Hey, Ben,
what a day! Hope you get some TLC when Fester wakes up, and tomorrow some
respite
Ms Exlibris Blimey, I'm
exhausted just reading that! Calmer days
ahead I hope if you are monitoring your blood pressure
Bentonbag Ms Exlibris Like Hell!
All hell broke loose this morning because Thunderthighs's
ear wax (there's another saga) was irritating him, causing temporary deafness
and anxiety (but not pain) expressed in shouting a lot. His father was less use than a chocolate
fireguard because his answer was to do a lot of shouting too, mostly from a
recumbent position. At which point my
elastic snapped and I joined in.
Miss
Doozer and Doozer Esquire - That explains this
morning's noises.
Thunderthighs has an
appointment for syringing on Monday morning; which I had to arrange and will accompany him
to.
Things are a little tense in the Benton-Fester household
at the moment; knit&natter was a
huge relief and prevented a lot of things from being said.
There are days when if it wasn't my house I'd go.
Doozer Esquire You're always
welcome to pop into ours for tea / gin / hard drugs (delete as appropriate for
situation) and bitching about things if it gets too annoying.
The cat will probably bring you a sock for you to shout
at...
Bentonbag I rang the
surgery and, miraculously, the lady who organises their annual medicals picked
up the phone. He has a syringing
appointment at the Oxford Centre 10am Monday Thanks Be To God.
Now if I can keep myself from knifing him
before then ...
