What a difference a day makes........

Pouring with rain, wild and wet! 
Thursday is the day I take my friend to the Garden Centre.   She was not too good today and I was exhausted when I got home. Her speech was not good and she was struggling to make sense. I'll draw a veil over the rest. Sometimes I feel like a punchbag. I have to look after myself too, so when it gets too much I take a break for a week. None of her other old friends see her anymore. (I do see why at times!)     
 The weather did not help as it was dismal, and she was depressed. I have contacted her daughters this evening. As I have their numbers. Whatsapp is so good for that. They like to know how she is midweek. They are identical twins and live in London, with their families. 
They are all coming up this weekend for Christmas. 
        Ultimately she is their responsibility and hard decisions will soon be on the horizon. 
    I did not have time to take  photos and anyway it went dark very early this afternoon.
So I quickly took one in the garden centre which was colourful. And the other two are houses in our road. It was teeming with rain as I got out of the car on my way back to take two more with my mobile phone. 
Time to relax. I've just demolished a Lindt Chocolate Father Christmas! It was yummy!
