Over 50's Club Scotland

Coolish, overcast-ish and occasional windy-ish ness here.

Not much to do today, so I didn’t do it.

Will get myself into gear soon and sort out the laundry and some chargers and cables for Mrs Dex who is going into hospital tomorrow for some tests to be carried out on Thursday. They don’t really know what’s going on with her despite CT scans and X-rays, so they’re going to involve some cameras next.

Sounds a bit worrisome Dex … I hope she’s not too anxious and they can find out what it is.

Cheers Morty. ‘Tis a puzzle.

Good morning. Been raining here but seems to have stopped. Food shopping as I want to stock the freezer up and I don’t have to out so much. Hope everyone is ok.

Good morning good People, a sunny /showery one here,

Was a bit upset yesterday when I heard one of My fav’ Authors Peter May has died…So feeling sad I looked on Netflix to see if I could find something to cheer Me up…I did…it’s a sitcom called ‘Leanne’…so so funny and I laughed all the way through it. :laughing:

Crossing My fingers for good news for Mrs Dex,xx

Hope You All have a good Afternoon,

Beautiful day here … bit breezy but lovely and autumnal.
There seems to be a load of wasps about this year though …and they’re all skinny looking.

Afternoon, What a morning of rain… Unbelievable. Took this pic from the car earlier this morning while having my latte at " The Front" BUT, the sun’s finally come out and everything is drying up. I hope this lasts so my Landscapers can get here and sort my garden.
Going to sit outside at the table for a while, been stuck inside too long the last few days.
Enjoy the rest of your day.:slightly_smiling_face:

You tell him Rox … he needs taking in hand.
All that rain made me shiver and shudder. So bleak and dark.
It’s lovely here today. I’m rubbish at taking photos or I’d prove it.

So, took Mrs Dex to the hospital and dropped her off at the door and went to find a parking spot, which, after 30mins of driving around the car parks I did. Then, I carried her overnight luggage (:flushed::roll_eyes:) up to her in the ward, which was second star on the right, don’t stop until morning distance away.

She told me that some miserable and po faced nurse gave her a hard time about arriving so early (the letter and phone call told her to arrive by 11:30 under the threat of having the procedures cancelled if she was late) since nobody would be interested in seeing her or get the ball rolling until at least 5:30pm.

So, having ensured her iPad was connected to the tortoise speed NHS WiFi, I left her to it.

Am resting today, and leaving things in a slovenly state until tomorrow, as is my right as a home alone husband.

Hope all your days have gone well.

I have put the things in the dishwasher the way I think they should go, and washing on the radiator and clothes horse so they will dry optimally. Mrs Dex would have a fit!

As for the numerous pairs of trainers and crocs in the hall!!! :rofl::rofl:

I have also removed the bathroom window cill and tidied up the mess without being interrupted and hearing intakes of breath when a bit of dirt falls on the floor. I shall fit the new one tomorrow.

Peace and quiet and autonomy. Bliss.

Mind you, I do miss her :wink::slightly_smiling_face:

Morning, Another at home day for me got a lot to catch-up with. Still waiting on my Landscapers, had a text this morning from himself saying he was still feeling ill but would be here asap, apologising over and over. I hope he gets over the virus quickly as I can’t even do any of the work.
Weather is ok-ish sun and showers.
Fingers crossed for your wife Dex. :crossed_fingers:
Enjoy your day everyone. :slightly_smiling_face:

Afternoon …
Hope things aren’t too stressful for Mrs Dex … some of those tests can be a bit scary.
Not a bad day here today but I have my nurses uniform on whilst I chivvy Mr M around. He was poorly in the night and now needs some loving.

Mrs Dex came through just fine. She had to have sedation (they didn’t give her a choice), and so she has to spend another night in hospital.

Which means that I have been issued with instructions of what to get her from M&S on my way in to visit her, along with which plastic water bottles to use to decant some wine into. Not really sure that having a tipple after sedation is what the doctor ordered, but I do know that failure to succeed in my task will end up with me needing medical care and sedation myself.

On other matters, have got the new bathroom window cill in place and cemented in. Will put some more mortar in when I get back from mission impossible so it’ll be ready for some toupret filler tomorrow.

Hope your days have been as equally as relaxing as my cat’s.

Good news on your lady Dex. :+1:
