Boring Day...

We got up this morning, and couldn't for the life of us think of anywhere that appealed to us to go. We went through all the local places and didn't fancy anywhere, and the further away places we didn't fancy either, so in the end we didn't go anywhere. Nice day too, it was just one of those days that no-one could summon up enough energy or whatever to go out, so we didn't.
Vin got the cat blankets out in the open and had a go at getting some of the hairs out then put them in the wash.
Vin was expecting a parcel to be delivered anyhow so it didn't matter that we were in. In the event, the tracking of the parcel revealed that it had been delivered, even though we had been in all day, and carried the doorbell round with us all the time. You can track your parcel online, and the records showed that it had been delivered and signed for but the trouble was, that the signature was totally undecipherable, so we have no idea where it has gone actually. Now we have to wait for someone to bring it.All a bit of a mystery really, and Vin is on edge wondering where his parcel is as you would expect.
Phone call from my hearing aid centre, to say that my aids have arrived. That was quick because I only went last Thursday. She arranged an appointment for next Friday morning...so it will be the beginning of the week eyesight and glasses, and the end of the week will be hearing aids. That's two days accounted for anyway.

Heard about our ginger boy yesterday. The landlord from our new neighbours hose was about yesterday, and he said that it had settled in well now. it was a bit scratchy for the first two weeks, but that is understandable, having been shoved unceremoniously into a cat cage, put into two cars, driven through the Mersey Tunnel and taken somewhere strange. Poor little thing, at least it won't have another winter of sometimes being left out in the cold and horrible weather. There were many nights we would worry about it. I hope it's fallen on its paws!!
We caught a bit of a programme last night channel hopping, about people with addictions..strange ones..not the normal ones. This was about two women, one had an addiction to being with puppets, who she treated like her children/friends, and would take them out, and talk to people with them. Very attractive woman too. The other was a woman, who lived in a modern house outside New York..Long Island I think, and she was addicted to cats! She has 23 of them..lovely house, and beautiful cats..but 23 !! too many.The therapist was encouraging her to get some going to other homes, but I don't think so....
Tonight we are having:
pasta with a tomato and mascarpone sauce
mushrooms
Green vegetable medley
A bit of garlic bread and some parmesan cheese.

23 cats now that's even too many for me!! although there is a lady near the SA hall who fosters cats and she had 11 at the last count.
Isn't it funny how some days nothing appeals to you and you have reminded me that I need to do my cats blankets when I get home.
Food is improving but I just like mine spicy so am pouring packets of pepper over everything.
Only two more sleeps and I will be back home *YAY* although I am enjoying the week.
