turpsWe managed to get Murphy a toy, this automatic thing that spun a feather on a string. He's managed to pull the feather off within a few minutes #thug
In good news, Corey phoned last night to say he's getting his 80% wages, he's not sure how much as it can either go on an average over the year or follow his monthly wages which changed depending on whether it was term time or not. But, whatever it is, it was a huge relief he is getting that as he was worried they'd base it on his official contract which is for four hours only. He's still bored out of his skull being alone in his house share but at least he'll be getting paid.
And I just had a phone call from the lymph clinic cancelling my appointment for next week. Not that I'm surprised as I'm sure they don't want extra people wandering into the hospice. After a telephone conversation, I'm getting the same measurement of compressions as last time, which is fine as these ones still fit. Maybe a bit snug due to not walking as much and fluid building up a bit but that'll go down when I get out more. So, next appointment is October when she said hopefully things will be back to normal.

hc_bingo and I need to decide if I'm taking part. It's a crossover based on four prompts and I'm tempted. But history shows I'm the worst at bingos. However, I did manage one last year, this could be the year I do that again.
If you remember my oldest nephew is in foster care and a few days ago we found out he's going to be moved, but somewhere three and a half hours away from here. It's a shock as things were just starting to go right for my SIL. Her partner and the dad of my youngest niece and nephew is allowed to go back home in a few weeks and my SIL was about to be able to see my oldest nephew unsupervised a few times a week, and now this. The foster parent he has now is quitting as she's going to have a baby very soon and this new place is the only one they can find that fits his needs. He's fine about going, thinks it's a huge adventure, but of course his mam and my MiL are both in bits.
