Busy day today.

There's now Shepherd's Pie, Moussaka, Bolognaise Sauce, Pizza and Liver & Bacon Casserole in JoesGranny's freezer... all in nice small portions that can be pulled out and reheated.

It's really noticeable how much weight she's lost and how quickly her energy levels have recovered when I'm making sure she eats properly.

JoesGranny used to be a pastry chef in a hotel restaurant. She does know how to cook very well indeed, but I think she can't be bothered :(

Progress has been made. We need recovery and/or agreement to move. I think the seeds have been sown :)

Good night all.

Yes a good diet makes a huge difference.
Have you looked at something like the Wiltshire Farm Foods company who deliver meals?
Goodnight to you too Linda sleep well.

It's time I said Nos Da, I have a few things to do before I reach my bed.
I hope all CDRers have a good Monday,
and in case you're disappearing again tonight and I don't speak to you before Hallowe'en, Adam (@Tidgy's Dad) we'll miss you, Tidgy and Wifey but I hope you manage to get lots of your work done and you know where we are if you need cheering up or just a chat.
Take care
Night Night

Night night, Linda.
Very good that your mum's situation looks like improving.
Hopefully the seeds will continue to grow.:)

Good morning CDR. Another week commences.

My facebook tells me that one year ago today I was at Twickenham, home of English rugby, watching a very close and exciting match in the Rugby World Cup. Final score England 25 - Wales 28.

Mum is Welsh and I was brought up supporting Wales where Rugby is the national sport. It was a brilliant night :)

Good morning.
Sleeping has been difficult. Even after several hot showers. Something in that carpeting has got me itching. And I still have another 300 S.F. to remove this afternoon. Then I can vacuum and mop the cement and be done with it. (And start the new flooring)
Whatever is up with that carpet, It may have been the cause of my elder dogs itching. (the one that died)

Sorry to hear you're not sleeping.

There may be mites of some sort in the carpet? I have no idea how to get rid of them though :(

I found a date of 1986 under one section of carpet. I'm wondering if the fibers have broken down into something that is an irritant.
I had no idea it was that old. It still looked pretty good.
