Snap

Still no embroidery done.  

I sent bought cards instead.

On the positive side, I produced some phot prints for OC's lovely widow.  A friend had kindly left her a beautiful frame photo of the friend and OC. It was black and white, and was taken on bonfire night, not long before OX went into hospital.  

It's  a lovely pic, and OC's wife mentioned that she'd love to have just her husband in the pic.  She got a digital copy of the original and sent it to me, and I did some cropping and did 2 versions,  one which was just cropped and enlarged, and one which had attempted to sharpen the image (which was a little blurred on enlarging) .   DH dropped them both round, and OC'sW preferred the unsharpened one.  

She asked if it might be possible to have an even bigger version printed,  so I did 3 sizes for her.  She's very happy.

....

I had a series of medical related appointments, none of which gave me any answers. 

I signed up for the Our Future Health initiative, and had various measurements taken, and a blood draw,   during the week. That highlighted some areas of concern and I was advised to see the GP.   I do have a GP appointment this coming week, so I guess I'll have to talk about these things now, instead of what I booked the appointment for.

I wish we could just get to the bottom of it all.

My Mum has arranged a trial stay in a retirement home.   She's in a particularly lovely and caring place, and they seem very on the ball,.  We're going to see her next week.


....

It was our village litter picking weekend this weekend.  I did not want to go out and do it.

I'm glad I did, this time there was a huge amount of rubbish (2 dustbin bags instead of 1).  This was mainly die to the hedges being cut right back, and all the detritus underneath them being accessible.  It normally takes me an hour to do my road,  today I was out for about an hour and twenty minutes.
