Kids and their mates

It is driving me totally nuts that Matt seems to have no concept that this is my house and I don’t have to allow his lodgers, shags, mates or whatever they should be called to be here all the time if I don’t want to.

They contribute sod all, take what is on offer, some don’t even acknowledge I exist the rude little sods, well, short of saying what drink they want.

He stays up until all hours meaning I am not getting my valuable ‘me’ time each night before going to bed unless I stay up ridiculously late, most nights it is close on 3am. Then there is the smoking … these little girlfriends of his seems to like the ciggies and smoke out the garden with the stink of it getting directly back into the house through the open windows not to mention the smell on their clothes. If I have beer in the house it is drunk yet no one thinks to replace any of it so I don’t buy any now.

I am nervous about getting up in the night wearing just my underwear as I don’t want to bash into one of his girlies. Last night I just went to the loo and the noise from their shagging was embarrassing.

Mates in general coming here … both my garden tables are now destroyed, at least one of them by Daisy’s mates. The truth is, they just don’t even care enough to tell me about these things, its like, and these things happen and it’s so not their problem and I am just sick of it.

I spoke to the DWP and apparently they are now going to try and set up a meeting so I can be Jermaine’s appointee. As it stands at the moment, they want the Chalfont Centre to do it and that lot won’t even give me a receipt for what they have spent or tell me how much money is left. Currently all Jermaine’s money has been suspended so I am not getting any money for him at all hence why I can’t pay the Chalfont anything, it’s just stupid!

You Bloody Idiot

I had a really enjoyable time in Meltham with Stan and Pete, even that walk against the wind up the pub on Saturday evening in a blizzard was fun. On the way there I thought it’d be fun to take some pictures of the car in the snow. I had not realised just how windy it was, I seriously thought my door was stuck when I tried to open it but it was just being pressurised by the forces outside. I am lucky really the wind had not been behind me else the door would have been ripped off. On the way back on Sunday I paid a visit to Sue in Sheffield. I like Sue and she is a great conversationalist. The journey was not without incident as the satnav kept failing and crashing and just became useless. I eventually tracked the problem down to the loudspeaker connection for the mount and once I’d removed that it was stable and guided me well to Sue’s door. I am really happy to report that the steroid injection I had last week as helped ease my pain. I still have the pain but it is not restricting me ...

2 Weeks in

Amazing as it seems I am two weeks through my visit here. Some might be getting a little confused about why I am here. There is only one important reason and that is to be with Dennis. This isn’t a vacation to me, it’s just about having to travel to the Philippines because it is where Dennis happens to be. I’m still in very regular contact with home dealing with daily issues, the council, social services and so on. I am geographically away from it but technically still connected. Obviously it’s cool to wander into Manila and see the place, travel in a Jeepney and so on. Wandering around the malls is fun but it is who I am with rather than where I am that matters most to me. Highlights for me, apart from every second I spend with Dennis have to be meeting family and friends. Veronica and her family and Imee of course who has kept me entertained for hours with conversation about anything and everything Ireneo too tries real hard wit...

Not a good day

Today is a very emotional one for me. I have no idea why that would be the case but apparently it is. For a day that had nothing pre-arranged this one has turned out quite busy. First, I agreed to take Matt for breakfast though I wasn't really hungry. He was being quite argumentative in the morning about some thing or other, I don't recall what exactly but some matter of politics where he was going to argue the toss whilst knowing little or nothing about it. But, even so, I was quite upbeat as Jermaine had gone to school on time ... no, scrub that, i was upbeat until I yet again had to tell Zoey to get her arse out of her room, downstairs, do her chores and get to school, that is when this day started to go downward. I spent way too much money on a new doorbell, true, we needed one but not one that cost nearly £50! This too has not helped. I went to see a garage that can fit parking sensors to my car, all well and good but they needed me to supply paint to match the circles up ...
