Day 52.................

Awoke to the wind whistling around the 6th floor, and rainy wet outside;akes it a little more bearable to be inside here after yesterday's disappointment of not being discharged. Life is muh quieter and more pleasant in my single sideroom, down behind the store rooms and out of the way. I have two big windows to look out of, and can see plenty of skyand trees, over to the ountryside beyond. I've got a good deal of knitting done on my Fairisle pullover - the peace and quiet is good for conentration,and because the pattern is on a pdf, I can dip in and out of my Scrabble games too.  I found a copy of 'Dinner at the Homesick Cafe' by Ann Tyler  on the visitors' table,so I read that over the weekend. Whilst not very uplifting,it is a good book, made a change toread for a while, apart from my daily Guardian - this keeps me up to date with what's going on,and keeps my brain in order with the sudoku and crosswords.  The food isn't to bad,  and I've learnt which things  theydo better than oters, and there's plenty of tea and coffee available.All in all, not too bad, but Ireally miss home and garden.  No new date for possible discharge, so I just have to sit tight and try and keep my chin up. There is a TV in my room, but the only thing I've watched so far is The Beechgrove Garden,which I found by chance!
