morning all

I have been up since 7 30 but I have been slow doing things I am going to walk over to the paper shop in a moment I need the fresh air. I went and put my bin bag out this morning we have a communal bin I had the stick in one hand and the bag in the other. I managed to get the lid up and bag inside as I was leaving a friend in number 1 called out and asked how I was. ? she said I have a couple of M & B books here for you so I went to her flat to get them walking stick in one hand and they have a ramp handrail as there flats are on a slope I managed well till I got near her flat and hung on to the handrail only to find I had a green hand yes you have it it was covered in Birds poo my friend is two years older than me and she stood there laughing so much she got me a cloth to clean my hand, then she said it might have brought you some luck you need it. I said yes it has lucky it wasnt on my head I washed my hair yesterday I am pleased I made someone smile.

Ooh Purple Sparkly leggings, what a thought lol! not sure if they will make them big enough tho :>(((

Marilyn, where's my photos? Don't I count as Girls?

Glad your Dad had a good time - I am sure ropey steaks didn't spoil his party, bless him.
I used to like whisky but found I put on weight when I drank it, I was only 21 tho and very skinny lol, maybe if it will prolong active life, I should drink some now and again.
We only have it in the house when o.h. buys some to give his dad for a present tho, will have to snaffle a little somehow.

Rita, time for that Manager to get reported - she is taking the proverbial wotsit! Cheeky mare, good thing it's not me living there, I would be telling her where to go! She is on a cushy number if you ask me.

Shelly, take care if you have a cold coming, don't forget the Vick for the soles of your feet.

Hi Marilyn.
We have all nagged at poor Rita,about that bl**dy estate manager,or whatever she chooses to call herself. I'm afraid if she was my mum,I would down the neck off the powers that be,about her lack off care for her residents. It makes my blood boil,that this woman is allowed to get away with what she does.
I just wonder what she is actually being paid for,as she does nothing for
the people who live under her care.
Rita,does any resident in your complex have a care manager. If they do
could they inquire as to what the estate manager,is supposed to be doing for her weekly wage.

Hi Everyone,

Dad is fine today .....he did have a few glasses before he went to bed because we told him to ..LOL

Well Rita I don't think I would put up with that manger of yours, you have to do something about her. What does her contract actually say ? Do you know?
Have you got a copy of management terms & condition with the owners ?

I strongly advise you to get it and read it through, I think that way you would have a good case to complain if she is not doing what she is paid to do.
My goodness you pay enough for these private flats .....my mother in law was in one and her manager was Part-time and lived in one of the flats, but he was excellent and did all sorts of jobs for the residents.

I bought new glasses today.......buy one get one free !... but got to wait 2 weeks for them.

Off now to make some tea.

well here I am there is you.

Marilyn thank you for the photos they are very good I was going to say the same your Dad looks so young.are you sure that isnt the toy boy you picked out for me > then changed your mind ?

The colours in the photos are good often you get a hush colours but these look so natural.

My sister phned to say she feel a bit better today. I am pleased she is feeling better as I feel guilty not being able to get over to help her.

The nurse came and did the blood she took three files as she said they need it all for the tests. she said it had not been put down I was on regular warfrin. I said perhaps that is why I am having so many problems rotten blood. through the warfarin..

I needed a perscription to go to the doctors as I am running out of steriods and eye drops so I had asked our estate manager she said I am not allowed to take the percsription to the doctor's it is not in my regulations I said like not opening the door for Carole who got locked out ? and had to go by car to collect a spare set. ? she said if I do it for one lot l have to do it for others.I asked what happens if I get locked out then ? she told me I have to ask a neighbour to pull the cord and wait for a contractor to arrive to open the door for me (the cord is one we use for hospital or fire and police ) so I will ring her bell and get her to pull the cord if I get locked out ) she lives in the block of four i am in.
I told her she is being paid by us not head office and her free flat is paid for by us not head office . now I got worked up about it and have a head ache.. she is doing her laundry today in her working time I wonder if I should complain.

Hi everyone.
Marilyn are you sure your dad is 95. He's not telling you porkies is he. Has he had a face lift. Oh my goodness,he looks soooo good for his age.
Thank you for the pics,I enjoyed looking at them.
Ah Liz,what a shame for your poor mum. We as mums,like to keep a bit off dignity where our kids are concerned. But it must have been such a shock for you all as well.
Mum sounds like she was a lady right to the last.
What a shame about your steak last night Marilyn. Just a thought,have you checked that dad is sober today,after all five bottles off whiskey could give him a bad hangover. lol
Pauline,many years ago,I had a pair off Silver leggings. I thought I was the bees knees.
I also was the proud owner off bright pink and yellow trousers. the type that had the strap under the foot. Both got topped off with tops off the same colour. I believe that was way back in the 1980's,when shoulder pads were in as well.
Hi Rita, Shelly,Linda,Yvonne,Lady and anyone I may have forgotten,please forgive me.
