Sorry you're sore @Shaz51 . It's good you're able to start having some of your own things again.
I'm OK, but my eyes are playing up a bit. I'll head out for a walk soon. It's overcast which is good. I can't see if it's glary.

@Shaz51, yeah, it can be a challenge adapting clothing choices to fit aged care necessities.
Dad never wore slip on shoes before going in to aged care, but he couldn't do the shoelaces up himself so he needed slip on shoes. They are nice looking and comfortable ones though. And some of their clothes weren't workable because they couldn't go through the industrial style washing machines and dryers... Dad always wore jumpers. So we went on the hunt and found some genuinely nice windcheaters. Lots of little adjustments in between the big ones.

@Shaz51 hope you find shoes. My last pair I bought online as I'm hard to fit but knew the brand.
I'm waiting on a gardener/handyman but it doesn't look as though he's coming. I've just rung a plumber too but it's not urgent - just as well as it's a public holiday here tomorrow.

Hello @Zoe7 , @BlueBay , @Smc , @Dimity , @Determined , @tyme , @StuF , @Faith-and-Hope , @Jacques , @Appleblossom , @moderator
Christmas is a very hard time to please everyone
We had no invitations for Christmas day last week until this week
My cousin asked if we are coming for lunch and we said lunch
Then we got one from my step daughter and we are arranging another time
Then the hospital rang and said am I having lunch with mum on Christmas day!!!!!!!!!! Feeling sooo bad about this
Said I will visit on the day sometime but feeling sooo guilty

Christmas can be a pain in the arse 😞
Don't feel guilty. You can't be everywhere at once. I'm sure your mum will be happy to see you on the day and understand
