[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 338883, member: 1991"] G'day for Wednesday. It's feeling tropical here right now. Very hot and humid. What rain we have is misty and warm, more like humidity condensing out rather than showers. Anywhere indoors out of the cooler night air, is hot and unpleasant, even when standing right in front of an air conditioner (as I was tonight at a friend's place). We had a quieter day at home. I saw the physiotherapist this morning. Crikey, she's good! Nothing major in terms of movement - just small movements, very gentle exercises with minimal effort which somehow are helping my body gain strength in areas I've not known for over 20 years. husband took mother in law down for her physio appointment this afternoon. Although there is seemingly little physical involved, it is still tiring. I got home in time to fix lunch, then had a quieter afternoon while difficult child 3 finished more schoolwork. I had been expecting a call from the cleaning agency but they never called so I rang them. Again. The person I needed to talk to had gone home for the day (again - did the same thing on Monday) and I left a message. Again. She will be in on Friday. My cleaner comes on Thursdays, so I've got him tomorrow. I've cancelled for next week - doctor's appointment anyway. So tomorrow is cleaning day, also usually washing day. With the high humidity and frequent light showers, nothing I wash will dry. Normally I look forward to opportunities to clean house with help. I've been increasingly dreading this guy's "help". Sometimes he can do the job; sometimes he can't do it well or he fouls up badly. I can never be sure. He's not sneaky or anything, just incompetent a lot of the time. Head in the clouds, not much clue. He's told me he's bipolar but I'm not sure he's on his medications. And I've never seen him manic, but I've often seen him very depressed. He did tell me about it when he was caught in the act of "pleasuring himself" on a public train (difficult child 1 had seen police escorting him off the train the day before - I gather the act had been seen on CCTV and cops had been called to meet the train). That made me feel very uncomfortable. I'm fairly sure the guy considers me a friend, but outside his work for me, we don't actively mix. We cross paths (it's a small village) and sometimes chat in the street, but he's not someone I'd normally visit socially. Very awkward. Well, we'll see what tomorrow brings. Enjoy your Wednesday.
