morning ladies 
Looks like we're in for a wet day again, bring on the sunshine
It was an early start for us yesterday to find a car park at Waikato Hospital. It was worth the effort as we found a disabled park right by the door and no need for lifts. And to top it off, we had good news. MrK is on the waiting list for a hip replacement pending approval from the anesthetist. They will be in touch shortly. We are hoping he will be towards the top of the list. And we now have home help to help with bathing. The ladies will also clean the bathroom, loo and change the sheets on the bed. I've never had someone else do this so it will be odd. But must admit, it takes a load off my shoulders.
MrK needs another blood test today, one for his hip and another INR. Speaking of hips, the nurse who gave him the envelope full of information, told him the blood people like 'old hips' and could they please have his if it fits their criteria. They take all the goodies they need from it and use it. We're all in for recycling lol and also want to donate our body bits when we die so it was a no brainer for MrK to say yes. There was some teasing and banter about what he was going to do with it if he kept it, put it on his bedside table? lol
I'll do vacuming and other bits of housework this morning and if the weather clears, a bit more weeding and rose pruning. And later on, work on the seahorse a bit more. There were quite a few ladies crocheting and knitting while waiting for their appointments, yesterday.
Coffee's finished, might make a start on the day.
