Another week goes woosh...

Howdy!

This week has been rather dull I'm afraid... So, you may want to stop
reading as I am going to do a bit of complaining!!!!

Hmmm...... Where to begin.....

My client is the same as all my other clients... Get up early, follow
same dull routine, make food, more routine, get to bed REALLY late,
then up early again. We NEVER leave the house, we watch sports, I
cook, clean, vacuum (and yes, I even dust!!! Bet that made you smile!!!)

Let me fill you in on the interesting stuff that has occurred this
week...

I have been job hunting (online) - without much success! I shall
endeavour to visit a job centre as soon as I can get to one (and
actually have the time to do it [but, you will be glad to know that
Active says they are happy to keep me on for as long as I would
like!!!!! <ha ha, he he he.... Ow, my stomach hurts...>])

My client has had loads of medical issues which required the doctor to
come out and pay him a visit (the sad part is that this was a
highlight of my week!!)

Other than that, I have been visited by two HUGE spiders - each about
three inches long and two inches wide (no, that is not its size when
squashed!!!!) but, I do think they would have given Muffin a run for
her money!

I am so glad this client has not asked me to get rid of them (as you
could imagine what my reaction would be...) As it is, I make sure I am
a good ten feet away at all times with my feet off the ground (and if
it moves in my direction, I greet it and politely move away - um...
Yeah right... more like run away, arms flaling, screaming!!!)

I have managed to cook a roast dinner (roast beef potatoes, carrots,
cauliflower and cheese sauce, gravy, yorkshire pudding and stuffing)
as well as pudding (chocolate fudge cake and double cream). No, i was
not feeding the masses, all that food was requested by my client for
us and his brother (needless to say I was absolutely stuffed after the
meal!!) Oh, another highlight (before i forget) is that i made my
very first apple crumble and homemade custard this week (yes, it was
rather yummy)!!!

The week ahead looks as though it is going to be a little more
interesting, as we have a visit to the physiotherapist, doctors and
shopping planned (but we shall see how long those last!!!)

As for the near future, I have two clients booked... yes, TWO!!!!
(Active has really outdone themselves this time!) I have a few days
with Bethany planned this weekend, then am headed to Shirley for a
week. Following this, I have another break followed by a stay in
Exminster (Exminster sound familiar??? It should, as I have been asked
by the client, his family and the district nurses to return!) I am
looking forward to going back...

Well, that is all for now folks!!!!

Stay tuned for the next installment!
