turpsI commented to sperrywink yesterday that I hadn't been to the cinema in over a fortnight, and she replied the apocalypse must have happened. Obviously, I couldn't have that so went to see Asteroid City today, and it may be one of the strangest films I've seen. I enjoyed watching it, but weird was the word with layers on layers and I suspect a lot of my enjoyment was wondering what actor was going to turn up next.
I was supposed to have my lymphoedema appointment last week but it was cancelled due to staff sickness and they asked would a telephone appointment be okay. I said yeah as I have no issues right now, just need new compressions, and a nurse phoned today. She issued the new wraps on a script but I was a bit concerned she said the next appointment would also be a telephone one in six months because I do think measurements should be taken at least once a year.
Tomorrow we're taking my MiL out for a birthday lunch. It was actually her birthday yesterday but the day was a bit of a washout for her. Especially so as my SiL and her partner ended up arguing. I hate when you're stuck somewhere when people are fighting, it's always so awkward and I couldn't wait to leave.
Wednesday we're taking Pauline to the hospital for her second scan. Thursday I'm Bodhi sitting in the morning, Friday it's Uncle George's funeral. His daughter phoned today about arrangements and told James she wants to see him at some point. I suspect she may be going to offer Uncle George's wood and tool stash, which will be lovely and very fitting.
I did my last mail posting today, and as of now have nothing due to be posted or to arrive here. Usually, your stint is six months on six months off, so I thought I must be on my rest period, but as I hadn't had an email to say so raised a ticket in the app, only to be told that no, I'm still live. Which I guess means I'm now going to be paid in stamps for doing nothing, or one day my postman is going to dump many multiple packages and postage packs on my doorstep.

I need to go buy some stickers for Bodhi. They're her favourites and as she's having a clingy stage with her mams atm, I need some bribery for tomorrow. But yeah, busy is right. And yet, I have nothing planned at all after Friday.
