We are at Wednesday again, which means that it must be time for my weekly round up post Ramblings Of A StressedMum – 15/04/2026. My Week Health My poor Dad is still recovering, he is able to eat a little better which is great. He had Speech Therapy last Friday and she was pleased with how he was getting on. I did have concerns as walking from the car to the appointment he had what we call an episode. He suddenly stops and can not move, he has apparently done it a couple of times at home. We saw our…

This means that it is time for my Ramblings Of A StressedMum – 08/04/2026 on what is the hottest day of 2026 so far.

My Week Grief With less than 2 weeks to go until the one year anniversary. Emotions seem to have heightened and both myself and C are struggling.

My Week Grief This week has been quite an emotional week, it was our 23rd Wedding anniversary on Saturday. A very weird day I went shopping and got an anniversary balloon to tie to his rosebush. Then had a lovely meal out with my family in the evening. I was doing ok, until after the meal and I went into my bedroom and it hit me hard. The loneliness and feeling…

As you know my life changed dramatically six months ago. Life as I knew it was no more. Weekends and Bank Holidays are the worst times for me. I try to do one productive thing around the home each weekend. Plus finding new ways to keep my brain occupied and not dwell so much in the past. This is why I have been Keeping Busy with The Happy Puzzle Company this weekend. The Happy Puzzle Company offers a fantastic range of over 300 award-winning puzzles, games, challenges and puzzle books to both families and schools. Started 33Â years ago by former…

My Week Cars I still have our old car listed on eBay following another person messing about. I do not get why you would bid on a car if you have no intention of going through with the offer. Also my new car flashed up with check coolant level. I had no idea how to do this and messaged my friend who is currently…
