This and that

wiseheartEarly post is early because we're planning to watch the German version of the GBBO in the evening. ;)
We had a busy day again - and the end isn't even in view yet! But it was a good kind of busy, for a change, so I'm not complaining.
I've managed to put in the last line of sewing in the ladybird page. I also fastened it to the penultimate page (the mermaid one) and pinned on the seaming. That's the next step; and after that comes the binding, which is a particular joy and delight every time - NOT! Still, I'm beginning to hope that I might actually finish this project in time.
We had another highly suspicious, masked meeting in front of the building today. Monica, our choir conductor, came by and dropped off a bag full of apples. She and her husband are also prone to stomach problems and cooked apples help them, too, every time, so she wanted us to have enough raw material. She's very kind and likes Mum a lot. She also brought greetings and well-wishes from a couple of other colleagues, which was nice.
She actually had a good night, slept through almost completely, which is a rare thing for her anyway. In the morning she felt so good that she took the risk of eating some soup for the first time in almost a week. Well... now she has heartburn again. It is possible that the soup doesn't have anything to do with it, but we simply don't know. *sigh*
In the early afternoon my cousin came by and brought a temporary rubber foam mattress, until the actual one arrives. It is too long and not wide enough, but we got creative and managed somehow. It's only for a week or so anyway, until the permanent mattress arrives, but even until then, Mum might lie a bit more comfortable. Or so we hope. *fingers crossed*
