Hi Ladies
After I left here this morning I was still on the computer sorting through 'paperwork' for the solicitor for a good two hours.
When I finally got going on the decorations I almost gave up at 3pm when all three downstairs rooms were in such a mess and I had furniture to move around from where I had pushed it 'out of the way'. At one point my tum was hurting I felt worn out and Robert asked for a bowl of cereal! Now this young man manages to get around the kitchen long enough to cook bacon and make cheese on toast so I asked him to come down and make his own cereal. You should have heard the fuss! lol he did come down to eat though. Anyway the rooms are in some sort of order now, the christmas ornaments are in place and everyday ornaments away and the tree is up with lights on but still needs baubles etc which James said yesterday that he wanted to help with.
Red re Phillip it sounds like he isn't doing enough stretching exercises and the muscle has shortened. Which muscle is it? He really needs to get some suitable stretching exercises from physio and quick, and then get on doing them because that is what the consultant was afraid of with Robert. There are several muscle groups in the thigh, calf and ankle that all need to be kept moving or they stiffen up and shorten when not used regularly. Good luck encouraging him to get moving.
Hope you managed to get your brother's pressie bought.
Right I am off now to persuade James to help me deck out the tree.
