Text H to see how he went with doc today. An excerpt:
Cas: How did you get on at doctor? H: Hi. Fine thanks. rest and elevate leg (as I had suggested y'day) Much better today Cas: I may be bossy but my advice is pretty bloody good if I say so myself! H: yep Cas: H be careful, that's twice in 2 days you've agreed with me H: yes dear Cas: Well, wait until u hear all my other pearls of wisdom!! Then after 10 mins or so Cas: No reply. Does that mean u don't want to hear my wisdom? sob H: LOL. R u picking up D? Cas: Yes H: Can you please call in on way through to sign some papers? Cas: sure
So, plans changed and D was ready early so I got her first and dropped in on the way back. Keep in mind I've never been there before so I came inside and he ushered me in to the kitchen. He asked if I was ok. I said yes and he commented that I looked very pale (I had noticed that myself earlier) I said that I had some problems with my neck which I've had two weeks now and have seen the physio about. We chatted about that and he suggested a chiro. Then he gave me some pages from a magazine about one of my favourtie holiday destinations and a recipe from there that I like to cook.
Then there was a tour of the house.......every room and the garden, too. We chatted a bit longer and then we left. As we drove off D said she thought H wanted us to stay longer.
Now, especially for Nell.... the only evidence of ow was her portrait on a small wall in the bedroom, no clothes in the walk in robe, no items on counters, no photos of her or the two of them but a few of the kids.
On display was a b'day card from his parents. The card from ow was in an envelope on the bench (D told me this info)
When we left it was after 7.00pm so D and I went to Noodle Box for dinner. D rang H and asked him if he'd like us to get some dinner for him. He did so we called back with it. I sent D in as I didn't want to overdo it. H has just sent me a text to say thanks.
sob
