Yesterday morning workmen starting taking down a big tree on the block down the hill from us. They took off the branches & put them in a machine to grind them up. NOISY! It's a huge tree, at least as high as a 3 storey building.

They came back this morning.

Himself got up at 8am, happy to be home, walking around and whistling! Whistling lasted while he had puff......... but he's happy.

The chainsaws started again at 9am...... the grinding started soon after. What a racket.

Himself has gone to bed for a morning nap (it's 10.45am)... I don't think he's gonna get much sleep.

Jeeeez, it sounds like they're grinding rocks.

Ah well, it will be quiet at the beach this afternoon.

:-D

Glasow Lass - no point in hiding his shoes, he'd get around barefoot!

I can sympathise with you, those machines the tree surgeons use to grind up trees are very noisy.

Last year we had quite a large tree which was about 20 yards from my front door, it had become dangerous due to damage during strong winds. They felled it and then they started using the machine to grind it into wood chips, for four hours the racket drove me crazy :-(

My best regards to you and hubby <3

He's feeling much better.

This afternoon I heard noises........ snip, snip, crunch, bang......... he was in the garden! Enough energy to snip snip, but not enough energy to pick up the snipped! I can pick up the little bits, but not tree branches.

He plans to play golf on Wednesday.

:-D

Pleased he is home Scozz, and why do they think you would not look after him. You look after yourself too, while it has been painful for your OH it has been stressful for you. :-) <3

I'm still in the spare room. :-(

He's not sleeping very well, still got a fever, because he wakes up soaking wet & moves to the other side of the bed, a few times every night. Which means........ every morning I have to strip the bed, and wash & dry the mattress overlay, the pillows & the pillow protectors, then remake the bed. The weather is nice, so no problem getting everything dry, but if the rain comes there's no way I can get the mattress overlay dry!

The laundry is two floors under the bedroom. I feel like I've been climbing stairs for weeks!

By the time he's fit & healthy again I'll be worn out :-(
