Writing the year off

What a December. K had stroke on the 3rd, only just made it home for Christmas. The house is totally cluttered with two zimmer frames, a perching seat, new bath board. Extra stair rail fitted Christmas Eve, wearable pendant landline system set up today in the most inconvenient place in the hall because of where the phone line comes into the house. Added to this, E went down with chickenpox when mummy went to Dubai for a conference, and passed it onto daddy on 22nd Dec, so their Christmas was wiped out as well as having to cancel flights to Japan booked for the 27th. My back is killing me, the weather is awful, we won't be able to book any hols at all for 2014 because of travel insurance, or perhaps ever again. Can't wait for Wednesday, so we can say goodbye to 2013.
