Several days on

The day I last wrote was sometime a few days ago, (my brain is going to mush). I'm still not completely better but I'm a lot better than I was.
Thursday disappeared in a haze of 'what's going on again?' Friday we had to get the house ready for the man that has put the offer in on this house, he was coming to have another look before committing properly. T and I worked our butts off all morning and part of the afternoon to get the house looking at its best so we would have the best chance we could at him holding his offer. It was quite nerve wracking but he was a nice man and he said that he still wanted to go ahead with it. Phew, one hurdle jumped over. Now we are waiting to see if he has the bank statements to prove that he can pay what he says he can. Hopefully we will hear on Monday. Meanwhile T's family are working very hard on getting our 'house' over there sorted out, they're cleaning and tidying and moving things and have hired a skip for the weekend.

Next weekend T's dad is coming to stay with us as on Thursday we are having the men from DynoRod come back out to drill up the concrete bathroom floor to get to the pipe to repair it. It's going to take at least two days and then the bath and everything will have to be refitted. I had thought about taking Angel away for a night or two to a hotel in town so that we can do some shopping, looking around etc and be out of the way with a working loo, but I'm too scared to commit to it :/ I think that while I'm online I will look up prices though, it won't very nice for us here with all that going on, we will be disrupted and not have a loo again which presses major buttons.

Anyway before I do that, the other news is that the appointment came through for T's first knee operation; its's booked for the 28th this month and we really need to know where we stand with the house move by then because if he has the op done he wont be able to walk or do much for about 6 weeks, which may well be around the time of the move and I will have the added work of packing etc on my own as well as everything else. So it's all resting on the events which are yet to come.

T's mum wants us to go and visit them soon to check the annex will work for us, to get a feel for it etc. I'm scared, no I'm effing petrified but I want to do it and it's the desire to do it which will help me carry it through. It will have to been the weekend after next because the following one is near T's knee op and the one before is when the house is in pieces. So this weekend is my only weekend just for us and some peace.

Before I go on my web search I want to talk about today. I wasn't at all sure about going out, in fact I was very scared and unconvinced I would be able to go. I took half a lorazapam and took my time getting myself and the bags ready, then we got into the car and I was still not at all convinced but I could feel the loraz just starting to work and I made myself stay in the car. I didn't get out when we got to the banks but when we got to the library I got out and went in without even the tiniest thought not to. I was relaxed and looked at the books and talked with Angel and went off on my own for a while to collect some books for me.

We left with me feeling positive and we went to another shop, T went into the supermarket and I took Angel into the craft store alone, we looked around the whole thing but nothing tickled our fancy and we came out just in time to meet T. We were going to go to another shop but Angel was getting very moody for her lunch so we decided to come home and make something. Tomorrow we have a few ideas about what to do but I guess it's dependent on the weather.
