We've been up since 2.00am with me calling the ambulance at 2.45am.  MrK's wee wasn't passing through the bags, wasn't even entering the lines at all.  I didn't want to fiddle around with the bags so called the ambulance.  The officers flushed the line but there was lots of blood so off to hospital he went with me in hot pursuit.  He's still in the ED, I've come home as the washing machine is being delivered shortly, and he needs his phone charger.  Still waiting for the doctor as I left.  The Furry One was very good up until the officers helped MrK into the ambulance, then he growled at them.  He has never done that before.  Mind you, he hasn't sat in his 'protective pose' inside the house before either but did the first night MrK was in hospital.

I'm shattered but have another trip to Hamilton after the machine has been installed.  I told MrK DON'T tell them you want to come home!  STAY PUT!!

Anyhoo, I'll try and have a bit of a kip after lunch.

Patricka, I hope your bathroom woes are sorted.  We still need to replace the vinyl in the loo/laundry/ kitchen from when the loo was replaced.  It's going to cost around $6000, ouch! 

I agree with mica, your friend could have at least left the cafe voucher for you, popeye.

Good to hear your scoot is all repaired and better than ever, OHH

MrK is still in hospital.  They will remove the catheter tomorrow at 6.00am and then watch him for six hours.  Once they (and he) are confident everything is in working order, he can come home.  Last night I fell asleep on the couch at 7.30pm (ish) and the Furry One woke me at 9.00pm.  Bed, and I didn't wake until 6.30am.  Anything could have happened, and I wouldn't have heard it.  I've been up to the hospital today and am finally home.  Back tomorrow to bring him home.

Wet but not cold today which is nice.

Im not using my heat pump now unless its freezing.

Glad you got the phone sorted or nearly Hunnie. I may be looking at them myself soon. it comes up saying the battery is nearly dead... Which is odd. Never seen that before.

I phoned the Sparky, he rang straight back.. Will be here Mid morning. Said he may be able to sort a couple of elements out but will probably have to order the thermostat for the oven... He said it sounds like the Thermostat. I Admit to wanting to say No Chit Sherlock lol.

Then David rang. He had sent me a photo of Campbell. They gave him a hair cut. A Bloody Number one all over.. Same hair dresser and they know how his hair has been for a very long time. David was angry and Sad. And I admit after we talked I looked at the photo. I hadn't seen it cos my phone doesn't notify me of a photo.. It made me sad and angry too.. He looks like a criminal.

When we finished talking I said Ill look at the picture. David said dont text we will talk tomorrow... I couldn't talk. 

He is bringing me a plug in stove. He got it when he first moved to his new property cos they had to lift it to re-pile it. He likes to bake and cook and like me couldn't cope without an oven.

Thats what frustrated me about looking at houses, the number of them that didn't have ovens.. Its not a law these days, they only need to supply a mini oven or air fryer.. Thats NUTS.

Theres a Crash on the Kaimais... so avoid the area everyone

Have a good day
