Nov. 2nd, 2021 12:51 pmMy MiL is home and the house is back to normal.
Furniture is back in the right place, the cats are more relaxed, not that they were frightened of my MiL, just they weren't impressed with someone new in their space and hated the thump of her walking sticks when she walked around.
Not that she was a demanding guest at all, and I enjoyed her being here. But hosting for five days is a lot.
( cut for length )
My MiL also got to see me do one of my online jobs. I was hoping it would be finished before she arrived as it's one of the speaking ones where they want people with strong accents to help train smart speakers. Sadly it started late so she got to listen to me record the list of commands. What amused me was one was sent back with the comment there was a weird noise in the beginning, and it was James snoring *g*
So yeah, it was a good few days, but it's nice to be back to normal.
Or normalish as James is back home as he had a fall at work this morning and has hurt his back. When he goes down he's got no way of breaking his fall and apparently fell like a sack of spuds. He was trying to walk it off but in the end, they sent him home and now he's flaked out on the couch. He'll be fine in a few days I'm sure, it's just a shame this has happened when he's had such a good spell of not needing to be off sick.
