Leisurely morning and then visit to my mum in hospital after her operation before an evening preparing for a Comart Board meeting
Up at a reasonable time for a Sunday and surprised the family by getting them all a morning drink for the first time in many months. Diana, coffee; Deborah, warm black-current juice; and Daniel and I tea. The idea was to save Di’s legs that are increasingly troubled with varicose veins. After, a superb fried breakfast – my Sunday treat – and then back to bed for an hour or two to read the Sunday Times. Up at 10.00 and half an hour of washing, shaving and hair shampoo before out in the crisp air to let out the ducks – seven eggs today. A cold car shampoo, rinse and leathering and, after a coffee, little time to read my computer journals before getting ready for an early lunch of chicken and Liebfraumilch wine. This afternoon we drove over to my mother in ward F4 of the West Suffolk Hospital at Bury St Edmunds.
She has weathered the operation well and, whilst a bit irritable, there is every chance of a recovery which is good news. Daniel and Debbie were good in the hospital but a bit irritable on the way home before we could settle them down to tea. This evening I worked on reports for Tuesday’s Comart Board Meeting which was quite a task and so I still find that there is an equal task for tomorrow night.
