Marking Time

We are going in to Cahors hospital every day to see Rene although she appears to deteriorate each time we see her. We have made an appointment to see 'the doctor' this afternoon to try to get a picture of how her condition will change so that we can organise our lives accordingly.

We have been having glorious, clear, sunny days and cold, crisp nights. The temperatures have been around 12 to 15 c at the back of the house but we have felt a lot warmer on our verandah at the front of the house. So yesterday we bought another thermometer and put it on the wall next to the front door. We have just been out to look at it, (it is 7am) and it shows a temp. of 31c yesterday; there is a lot of warmth in the sun! As it is it has not been a cold night; the temperature now, at 7am, is 12c - lovely for mid-November.

We are in the process of clearing les caves and I have a load to take to the dump and I have got to mow the grass again. We have been scouring the french internet and ebay.fr for ride on mowers and mini diggers. We are going to end up with our own construction company!?
