LACY TO HOSPITAL

Today I am taking Lacy to hospital for a procedure.  She won't be able to drive afterwards, so Mum to the rescue.  And NO, it's not anything to do with girly issues.

We have a history of bowel issues, and she's getting checked out as a precaution.

A week ago I ordered an all-in-one Oodie, to wear back from the pool on cold evenings.

It arrived on Monday, and was WAY too big for me.

ABOVE:  So, Stew scored it.  It fits him perfectly, whereas it swam on me.  I ordered two more for me in a smaller size. 

And yes!  They arrived yesterday.  I didn't get a chance to try them on until late last night... thankfully they fit just fine. I always worry when ordering clothes online, that they won't fit.

The builders/plumber etc are due back here this morning, so hopefully I see more progress once I get home from the hospital. 

ABOVE:  This corner will have the new cupboard in it.

It used to be where the shower was.

ABOVE:  The new shower tray is in place.  It will have a sliding door from the right side to the left, and the new vanity will go to the left of the shower. Where that pipe is in the floor.

ABOVE:  I'm not sure what is going in this corner yet.  Maybe a seat?  More towel rails?  A plant?  Dunno. 

All I know is, this is kinda fun, and kinda stressful.

ABOVE: Family help us in various ways, and this is how Bex is helping me right now.  She's knitting me leg warmers.  She's done one and is on to the 2nd one now.  So nice and warm. Thank You so much Bex, I love you.

And now I better get a move on.  The builders are due here soon, and then I have to pick up Lacy and head up to the hospital.

Catch you later.

ABOVE: And here we are... on a wet and miserable day. Tucked up here in the hospital for the next 4 hours. Oh yaa.

ABOVE: Don't envy me the gorgeous view I have for the next 4 hours! Stunning shade of friggin green.  Hoping to stretch my legs while Lacy is being seen to.  Later.

FYI... Lacy is wearing nappies. First time in about 43 years. 🤣😅🤣😜

ABOVE: 11.26 am.  Bloody hell... MORE green. Lacy did ask for purple... but no. Green it is. Now we wait for her turn to be wheeled off down the corridor. 

1.49 pm:  And Lacy's procedure went well, no complications.   And she has no memory of it, which is great.  They knocked her out totally by the sound of it.

We are now home, and:

ABOVE: She is the first person to sleep on our new sofa bed.  Parked in the lounge.

ABOVE:  The builders left at 12 midday.  I thought they might have gotten more done today.  Seems not.  New concrete on the lower patches, and a couple of pieces of gib board up.

They will be back on Monday.  

Moving on... I'm going to have some lunch, then Lacy and I will go and pick up Keera. 

Lacy has her for a week over the school holidays.

I'm sure there will be a few swims in our warm pool.

Some EXCELLENT news this afternoon.  The Village Manager called in and told me that the Village are buying our shed off us, which is what I suggested they do a couple of days ago.

They are going to use it in their 'workshop' area for storage.  So it's a WIN/WIN for everyone.

We will now be buying a couple more of the KETTER STORAGE UNITS to replace the wooden shed.

It means Stew won't be able to stand up inside a shed, but hey, at least the 'issue' of the shed is resolved to everyone's satisfaction.

I am so relieved our lovely shed is not going to be cut down in height.  It would have ruined it for sure.

Lacy and Keera are safely at home, and I am now going to get a bit of housework done.  It's been a bit neglected the past few days.
