Ground hog day...

ground hog day indeed... did the quiet ground hog stick his fizzy whiskery little nose out of his hidey hole and see a spring coming? or do we have another month of winter? the latter i think...

or am talking *Ground hog day*.. the movie! yes more like it... yesterday when i arrived at the hospital we thought we knew where she was going... but seems not, Mom came up with Gossoms end, but thats a rehab place now, and they dont know where she got that idea from!

but.. the discharge nurse said hopefully tomorrow, tuesday we shall move your Mom to Hemel Hempstead hospital and then from there to a care home... i phoned this morning to find out Moms whereabouts! still in Watford! and theyre not sure weather to move her to Hemel now, or just keep her there and send her to a care home directly! less moving about, less hassle, which is true... but, Mom wants outta there now!

i said what about the St Francis hospice local to us? and they said well thats only for seriously ill people...?????????? hello!!!!!!!!!!!!! Moms prognosis is serious???

so waiting for news on action here or there, or who knows where.... talk about messing with our minds....

......... ok, this morning i met up with friend in Aylesbury for coffee and chat, was good morning, apart from a call to hospital to find out where i was getting off the bus... anyway, good old chin wag... and on the bus 10 to 12.00pm takes 1 hr 40 minutes mas o menos, i noticed something over these weeks on the buses, when i was a kid we always sat up on the top deck or at the back of the bus... now i am still sitting at the back of the bus and the kids come on... look longingly towards the back seats and find them full of oldies!!!! uhuuum, well and people my age!!!

the driver this morning was in such a hurry he sailed right past bus stops filled with people who were out of the way of the rain... and then a quick glimpse of their startled faces as we passed them by!

ok, time to relax, ha! ok coffee then instead had my dinner, called the Iain Rennie nurses to see if they can help, visited Aunt Linda and another neighbour... keeping everyone up to date...

i got my valentines card today from Franco... made me cry, its so wonderful... a little box inside too with bookmark with a beautiful poem i can carry with me, and cry on the move!

oh this morning.. another call, it was still dark in the room and so when the phone rang at 6:50am i thought it was the middle of the night, and was just as upset as last weeks call earlier... number withheld... i think a call to BT may be happening, but i will leave it for now, if another one happens i will...
