Gossip Time!!

Another good day for us both. We had a nice lie in again and then a bit of housework and cleaning out our chinchilla Bubbles. Pete has always spoilt Bubbles and even used to sort all her food out depending on what she liked best! She went into a real decline when he was in hospital but is fine now. Pete is back on feeding duty but doesn't sort it like he used to, which was probably unnecessary as she just chucks out what she doesn't like.
We had another visit to the dentist as Pete is getting new dentures, it involves four visits in all and we have now done two. These visits are really easy as (I think I mentioned it before) he doesn't even have to get out of his wheelchair and it is all on one level.
Again we haven't done any exercises but his arm has seemed a bit painful today so didn't push it. He likes to go outside for a while every day so this is now part of the routine.
I have had a really nice evening, went out for a meal with Mel and two girls I work with, we had a good gossip about work and who is doing what! We all work at the hospital as Housekeepers so have lots to talk about! Martin, Robbie and Ella stayed with Pete and they had fish and chips and watched a film. Ella stayed with Pete playing noughts and crosses on the iPad whilst Martin took us to town and then got their chips. When we got back she was playing matching pairs with him - she is an amazing little girl and likes playing games with him, she is brilliant with him and is not fazed by the situation at all. Robbie is equally as accepting that this is how Grandad is now.
Well, I think it is off to bed now as I am quite tired, obviously getting old!!
