Hi all, not a lot to report craft wise this week as I’m in hospital with lung problems. On O2 and meds. 

Picking up my linen stitch cardigan again, when I get chance. 

You know, the person who invents a non painful way of taking blood pressure will have to be crowned world president or something or at least get 2 dozen Nobel prizes. 😉 

Lots of arguments necessary to stop them putting me, an immuno-suppressed shielder, in a ward next to patients who’ve tested positive for covid. Formal complaint sent. I’m now in a single bed side room, guardians with crossed swords at the door to ward off the demands of the dreaded bed manager.

This diet notice, still on the wall for a former patient, intrigues me. It’s right in my eye line. What are Thai bran flakes? Is that all the poor man was eating? 

After all that, the night shift nurse came in and we recognised each other. She worked at my Mum’s last nursing home near Ashford two years ago and remembers both her and me. She’s one of the excellent Nepalis locally. We’re lucky to have them here. 

We had a nice chat. She even rremembered Brian’s Welsh cakes he always baked my Mum.  I showed her my favourite photo of my Mum end she remembered it being in the room. I liked to show who she was before the cruelty of dementia. 

Update: heart rate is down and my oxygen saturation levels are up, yay! I tell my night nurse Nepalese friend it’s her effect! They’ll be chucking me out as soon as they can as I’m trouble. Hee hee😻😻

We’re due to pick up this pretty pair next week. This first one was called Daisy but I won’t stick to that as it was the name of next door’s tabby who was run over. I struggled to find a name that would fit and have settled for Gracie. Do you think it suits her?

Bella has always been Bella but she might get called Bellissima at times, and occasionally Miss Greedy 😻

And finally…

Take care and keep crafting!

Hugs
