Where we are up to............................................................................................

 Mum is back home after fracturing her pelvis but is still in pain... getting her to just sit and rest is difficult.
Mandy's Dad is doing OK after his quintuple bypass and hopefully will be leaving hospital this week.
He will then be spending a few weeks in a local care home...
...better for everyone as the hospital is in Liverpool which is a 50 mile round trip.

I haven't been out with the camera at all during February with all that's been going on...
... so here is another shot of the Robin that followed us around the park in Keswick last month.

I'm glad both ancestors are improving. I know how stressful such trials can be for family members.
Meanwhile the robin is so cute. I just can't get over the fact that your robins are so much smaller and prettier than ours in North America.

I'm glad things are looking up. Probably a good sign that your mom wants to be up and doing. Giving up is bad at any age. I love English robins.

Karen said...

I always love to see your cute little robins!

Arija said...
