WHAT WE HAVE BEEN UP TO:

We were lucky with the walk on Monday which was on the Boardwalk at A.H. Reed Park

 

Tuesday, Doug went back to his Art Class for the first time since his accident and really enjoyed it.  In the afternoon he went to the hand physio.  We thought he may not have to go back to the nurse at the G.P.'s again but the physio suggested it would be a good idea.  He had an appointment for yesterday at 2.15.  I have had sinus problems for a while so phoned the G.P. yesterday morning and the Gods were looking after us as the triaging doctor said she could see me at 2.15. Doug has another appointment with the nurse tomorrow as his physio appointment isn't until Tuesday because of King's Birthday long weekend and it was thought six days was too long to leave it.  I am on a course of antibiotics for my sinus infection.  

Our taps in the laundry have been dripping for a while only when the washing machine is on.  Nothing major so we didn't do anything about it but with the new machine I got in touch with a new plumber.   He came on Monday after our walk and installed new laundry taps and a drain for the washing machine so that it doesn't drain into the tub.  We are very pleased with the result and wonder why we didn't do this earlier.  So much neater and the taps are easier to use.  He also put new taps in the laundry for eldest daughter who bought a machine at the same time.


Today we are getting some quotes to re-cement our driveway.  Had to wait for the o.k. from Council as part of it is across their pathway.  Onwards and upwards.

    1. Thank you, I hope we continue to be well. Doug's hand is healing slowly. One tends to put up with things like dripping taps when they are no too bad but it is great to have everything working well.

    1. The main problem with Doug is stopping him from doing jobs but he is doing pretty well and slowly healing.
