MY WORD OF THE WEEK – Change
This week has seen a big change for us. Better than our Rollercoaster week last week. On Tuesday, the Little Man went to visit a new school and by Wednesday morning he was going in for a couple of hours to see how he got on. This has continued for the rest of the week. It’s a change of school and a change of routine. We’ve even had a change of uniform to sort out. He seems happy so far, hopefully it will continue. He’s been offered a lot of support to go to this school.
I went to the theatre on Sunday, but instead of seeing my usual musical or ballet I saw a stand up comedian. This was my first experience of this and I really enjoyed it. I even had a change of companion as I went with a lovely lady that I’d not met before.
I tried a change of shopping provider. I usually use Amazon grocery (Morrisons) for any small items I need during the week. This week I had a special offer from Uber Eats and changed to Sainsburys. They added at least 10 pence on every single item I ordered, some were a lot more expensive. I did get 40% off my order though so it wasn’t so bad. The biggest change was the time, with Amazon I usually have to wait until mid afternoon for my order, but with Uber they did the shopping straight away and it was at my door within 30 minutes. I don’t think I’ll be paying those extra prices but it’s good to know I can use them in an emergency. There is no minimum order too, so great if I want to pay £5 because I’ve run out of bread I !! think I’d rather go to the local shop in my wheelchair, although they don’t sell much in there, I’d get my bread and milk.
Now it’s over to you, what word or phrase sums up your week this week?
It sounds like you’ve had a mostly fun week. Lots of changes and I am so pleased for the little man. The shopping delivery change could come in handy one day as you say, but I wouldn’t carry on with it if I am going to be paying much more. Oh, your theatre trip sounds lovely too. I’ve never been to a live comedy show but the idea sounds inviting as we love to laugh ’round here.
I hope Little Man is enjoying his new school. Wonderful that they plan to give him more help. I hope he thrives. I don’t think we can get Uber or Amazon grocery shopping here. It does sound convenient, even if it is a bit more expensive. Your theatre trip sounds like a good change. Before children we used to meet up with friends and go see comedians on a regular basis. Hope you have a good weekend. I’ll be picturing you speeding down to the corner shop in you wheelchair, after your bread! Thanks for hosting.
Glad Little Man seems happy so far in his new school and hope that it will be a nice supportive one for him. Sounds like you had a nice evening out seeing the stand-up comedian. That’s amazing that you can get shopping delivered so quickly even though it is expensive – good for an emergency though. Good job you had the 40% offer! #WotW
Ahh! I am so pleased your Little Man is enjoying his new school. I hope he continues to settle in well.
Eek! Using Uber Eats does seem an expensive way to do your shopping but I imagine it could be so handy in an emergency. I could have done with them earlier in the week when I forgot to get a few things with our normal grocery shop. x
I think the last stand up comedian I saw was Peter Kay and that was years ago! Glad you’ve had a better week. Fingers crossed for Little Man and his new school. It’s a good start though. I wouldn’t pay the extra for the shopping all the while either but as you say it’s good to know for emergencies.
That’s excellent news that your Little Man has changed schools. Fingers crossed all goes well and he continues to get great support.
