Wow, once again I am taken aback by the length of time since my last blog.

 Not a lot has happened and we don't talk about you know what in the hopes that it will get insulted and nick off. Elaine still has various niggledy issues but strong girl that she is she just keeps going. Last weekend we had our annual Chunamas family show which involves about 20 people including our lovely grandchildren, but is mostly adults. Elaine arranged it and at her insistence did a fair bit of the work. Reluctantly towards the end however, she allowed Toni and me to do a bit. But the day was attribute to her determination and was enjoyed, as usual, by all.

One of Elaine 'little' issues has been an ongoing UTI, like about 6 weeks ongoing. Eventually she surrendered and allowed her doctors to admit her to hospital where they are pumping her full of antibiotics. Obviously by intravenous drip and it is having a beneficial effect. Hopefully she will be home by next Tuesday.
