She has started knitting again. She has made some lovely jumpers.
My friend takes her to church each week (or when mum feels like it)
She doesn't drive.
She can't walk far due to her legs.
She isn't someone who makes friends easily (or indeed keeps them)

She thinks everyone should make an effect - except her. She criticises people for not keeping in touch and yet she refuses to phone people or go visiting.

My siblings only go and see her when they want something (money in my brothers case) (childcare in my sisters)
I know I can't make a new life for her. But at the same time I cannot abandon a lonely frail woman either.
What sort of person would that make me?
There is no easy answer, sadly.
We take her out sometimes but she doesn't want to do anything! She just doesn't want to be in the house alone. We took her to a local park a few Sunday's ago for a walk. Nice and easy, level ground, only 1 mile. She moaned the whole way. Went to the cafe for a drink and she sat there with a sad face on.
I simply don't know what to do with her. We aren't alike, we dont have any shared interests, she doesn't read, or like the same TV programmes as me.
It's difficult.

Baddz · 18/08/2015 13:29

I now only have one pile of ironing left!
Phew.
I have 2 bin bags of clothes and shoes in the back of my car for the Salvation Army.
Just found out ds1s paediatrician (who he has seen since he was 2.5) is leaving :(
I'm so upset. He's lovely.

BloodyElkFire · 18/08/2015 13:30

Baddz · 18/08/2015 13:31

Good news elky :)

MrsEvadneCake · 18/08/2015 13:46

I like a Manbun too.

elk great news!

bads it's really hard and you end up feeling guilty and cross and it really doesn't help things. Sad always got time if you want a chat x

morelikeguidelines · 18/08/2015 14:29

letus I love the football one!

FancyFancy · 18/08/2015 15:32

Ooh letus - love the drunk Aramis one very much. Nice work. Grin

ww, think someone mentioned checking your iron levels when you were talking about heavy periods - I'm sure i've read somewhere that anaemia sometimes causes restless legs. Medical wenches will know more I'm sure, but maybe even more reason to check your iron levels?

Yay elk that is fab news!!

That sounds very hard, has she always been like this?

FolknNorah · 18/08/2015 16:01

Potassium is for restless legs irrc. I got it when pregnant and had to eat bananas.
Might be iron as well.

I've got nowt helpful to say baddersz I'm not allowed contact with my mum and she seems fine with that. So whatevs really.
Just try not to feel responsible for her happiness and try to make sure of yours.

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 18/08/2015 16:05

God luck with job hunting Anne Smile And I don't function at all without sleep, I'm not nice to be around unless you feed me chocolate

Yay Elk Wine

Bads might antidepressants be something for her?

Fancy I think I've read that too, I do have restless legs usually but not like this, I might check that out. I have started with a multivitamin with iron at least Star

FancyFancy · 18/08/2015 16:15

Glad to hear about the multivits + iron ww, are you taking tablets or a liquid?

LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 18/08/2015 16:28

Evening wenches! Sending out lots of hugs for those wenches who need them. ILYA

Perhaps the sleepless wenches could lie there looking at the Aramis pics tonight - that would make me tired, but not in a good way Grin

LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 18/08/2015 16:29

Wicked I think you need a week with Athos - I bet he would make you feel better! Just tell the rest of Team Athos that I said it was fine Smile

FancyFancy · 18/08/2015 16:42

Hi liv, are you trying to start a fight in the Athos queue?

LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 18/08/2015 16:52

Hi Fancy ^

LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 18/08/2015 17:02

In fact, perhaps Wicked would sleep better if she had exclusive use of Aramis and Porthos for a week too Smile

I'm sure she would prefer not to have Dog/the Cardinal so I will of course take care of them.

I am actually getting quite emotional here - I had not realised what a caring wench I was Grin

HamsterOnAPiano · 18/08/2015 17:11

Wenches you lot all back after the password reset? Is everyone accounted for?

LetUsPrey · 18/08/2015 17:12

Well that all depends Liv. Would Wicked mind the Cardinal constantly saying "that's the way to do it" a la Punch?

You could come here Badderz and put away all my washing for me and then I could make a fuss of you, making cups of tea/coffee and bringing you shop bought cake.

Should really get off my bum and do something. Or I could just look at those Aramis/Santi pics.

HamsterOnAPiano · 18/08/2015 17:12

Christ, I've namechanged to a really old username. It's enormouse btw.

LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 18/08/2015 17:23

LetUs Shock ShockGrin

JacobFryesTopHatLackey · 18/08/2015 17:25

Well, I'm back and I decided to have a bit of an identity change. Less rodent like.

LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 18/08/2015 17:27

Jacob That you, Mouse? What's the password?

In case anyone is unsure as to whether I'm me, here is proof... Grin

LetUsPrey · 18/08/2015 17:30

Yes Liv? Grin

Nice name Mouse

I've just watched the full trailer for Batman -v- Superman. I may be a little bit excited about this.

JacobFryesTopHatLackey · 18/08/2015 17:32

It is liv

Errrm………god is there a wench secret handshake? Or a wench test to prove I am mouse?

Do I need to trot out the wench equivalent of naice ham, pom bears etc

LiviaDrusillaAugusta · 18/08/2015 17:34

Nah - we can't have a secret handshake as none of us is organised enough to remember it (except perhaps Helen) Grin

Here is your security question:
How many cocks does the Cardinal have?

JacobFryesTopHatLackey · 18/08/2015 17:46

2 and liv is oddly devoted to both.
