Ho hum

Our run of bad luck continues.  After the car failing and then passing the MOT last week with a few advisories, it went back to the garage yesterday to have work done on the brakes, one of the advisories.  The garage rang yesterday afternoon to say they'd found another problem with the brakes (seized caliper), so the car wouldn't now be finished until today.  So it's taking twice as long to fix and now costing more than twice as much as the original quote.  This car clearly has it in for us and thinks we have a bottomless pit of cash.  😡  The sooner we can get rid of the bloody thing the better, I'm just so sick of it.

Looks like husband has another water infection, he says it hurts to pee again, so another trip to the GP (when we get the car back!!).  And Betty has the runs and is very restless this morning (unusual for her at this time of the morning, she normally doesn't get up until around 07.30 or 08.00 am).  And I've been up since 03.50.  So just another normal day for us then! 👅😒

It's no wonder my hair is falling out and I can't sleep.

Husband did some gardening for friends on Tuesday and nearly brained himself by walking into a tree branch, he's got a lovely long, but thankfully shallow, gash on the top of his head, good job he had a hat on or it would have been a lot worse.  He's always been clumsy but even more so since his heart failure diagnosis, and he bleeds because of his blood thinner meds.  I frequently say he shouldn't go out of the door without wearing a full suit of armour.

It's our wedding anniversary next Monday, we'll have to think of something lovely (but cheap) to do, we really need a bit of time out.

And would whoever is throwing all this crap at us please give us a break?!
