In Between Days

Thursday.
When I got up I had a text from Charlotte who was in so much pain she had rung the hospital. They wanted her to go back, check everything was OK. So we went round and sat with her until Ian could get home and take back to City. Lauren wanted to fetch us, but we walked round it's not far. Lovely of her to offer though. 
We sat and chatted,trying to keep her mind off things, Kev kept us supplied with coffee and when it was time for Charlotte to make it downstairs we helped as much as we could to make it a bit easier. Not that I'm much help, you know me and stairs. It made us thankful for no stairs at home I can tell you. Once Ian and Lauren got home we scarpered so they could get off. 
We'd had an email from TKMAXX that my Dracula bust had arrived so we decided to go pick him up, so we got the bus and headed for Trinity Square. We picked him up and found some other bits and bobs, including a door stop Vampire we've named Varney and some cat toys for Willow as she has just about killed the dangling spider we got her last year. We had lunch out at The Slug at Lettuce in Market Square before coming home. 
Kev also had a delivery of my Birthday gift, Wednesday in her prom dress dancing to Goo goo muck! He gave her me rather than wrapping her up, and she is gorgeous. She fits in well with the Sadies ( they all had to budge up a bit!). We also unwrapped the bust, which we have named Dave because he looks exactly like Dave Vainian even down to the sneer. He needed fangs though, and Kev ( the ever handy dandy fixer upper!) soon remedied. 

Charlotte messaged me to say everything is OK, they've upped her pain meds. Hopefully that'll help. 
So all in all, a productive day and that's all my decor bought for this year, I had Dave instead of the Frankenstein bust that was on my in search of list, so unless I find one, that's me done. I'll be thinning out my collection after the party ( Keeping it until then in order to dress the centre up) Then I'll post older bits and bobs that I can bear to part with online and see if there are any takers...
