Thanks all for your kind words and thoughts.

On top of it all, took OH to railway station at 07:30 yesterday (Monday) to go to London for 2 days, then onto nursery to drop the boys off for 1st full day, then came home to shower and go to work after having a week off on carers leave.

Showered, hair dry, and was going to get dressed and stubbed my toe on the bed leg (wrought iron type frame), done it hundreds of times, thought no more about it, but 1.45 hours later still could not put ball of foot on floor. I ended up having a neighbour take me to A&E. I had not broken it but dislocated my little toe, so had to have gas and air whilst the doctor tried to put it back, then another x-ray, still not sorted so more gas and air and try again, this time doctor said she felt it go back, it was so excruciating. Advice RIPE (rest, ice, painkillers and elevate) for 48 hours!!

That all on top of having my daughter in hospital with SPD, new baby will have to be weaned off morphine when it is born. Step daughter in Cardiology with heart problems, having a pacemaker fitted, her father, my ex (who was the other carer with the boys [one at a time for him] we took him in at 10pm a week past Saturday, he ended up in same ward as step daughter, so we are having boys nearly full time.

I now have been offered a new job "script writing" for Holby City and Casualty!!

If anyone is up for a light lunch or afternoon tea on Saturday afternoon would love to catch up, if not maybe see you in August/September.
