[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2314893, member: 25851"] Not yet. Nothing at all on granddaughter but tomorrow evening DIL goes to Inverness for her mammogram at 9 o'clock Tuesday morning. All being well, she should be home on the 2.30 flight. Didn't hear anything yet about my blood test so will phone tomorrow and see if it has come back yet. No 2 son, has annual leave for the next 2 weeks, so will be looking after the kids (one 14 year old - no problem, one 10 year old - highly strung, one 8 year old - Em, gets a bit carried away when in the company of the 7 year old - destructive and stubborn). But as long as all goes well, it will only be for the one night and one day on his own. Once he has got them all to school - one just up the road from us, the other 3 in 2 different schools in Stornoway - he will have to deal with the laundry, a delivery/collection round and to make sure it all gets done in time for another delivery/collection on Wednesday, collect them all from school again and deal with meal prep and looking after all the animals. He says he doesn't need any help and will manage, just so long as he doesn't injure himself on the equipment. He is acknowledged to be a walking danger zone, although it's always himself he damages, not anyone else. Food today: not much. Had to go out to the local shop and the pharmacy fairly early on and got back in time for a one hour Zoom meeting. After that Em arrived for the afternoon (DIL and No 2 son delivering laundry and drumming up business on the West Side of the Island. They managed to get a bit lost, so it took longer than they expected.) So only drinks until lunch. Then I gave Em a roll with Philadelphia cheese and prosciutto but she only wanted half of it, so I had the 2nd half. Then, nothing but drinks for the rest of the day. Not hungry. My red gooseberry bush arrived in the post (9cm pot, about 15 inches tall but healthy looking). It has to stay indoors for a week and then get acclimatised for a while and only then potted up. Ordered several other plants from the same people - one a sechuan pepper, one a"blue sausage" shrub - never heard of it, but it looks interesting. Its proper name is Decasnea fargesii. The third was a sharon fruit; I don't think it will do very well here, but Em is keen to try. The last one is a lemon - supposedly hardy, but we shall see. Worth having a go anyway. Edit: Em told me yesterday that she misses her grandad. I was surprised that she even remembered - she was only 5 when he died. Today she wanted to make a picture (a montage really) of a painting of a ship pasted onto a drawing of the sea and she asked if she could have a photo of grandad when he was a sailor. Neil printed one out for her and she cut it out and placed him on the ship, looking over the bow. "Because he liked being on ships." [/QUOTE]
