So, this is 2007 ... Hmmm, not noticing anything obviously better

Christmas was cool and I don't mean the weather but in a good way rather than a cool atmosphere so I guess that was good ... what I got was good, what I have given was better.

A couple of days before New Years Eve Matt has Jonny over and the pair of them got very drunk. I mean, not just merry but way past that. Jonny did the sensible thing and passed out but Matt pushed the issue really upsetting Daisy and being totally abusive to me. I told him that if this is how well he controls his alcohol intake there is no way he's having friends over for NYE.

That led to another argument with him telling me to butt out as it had nothing to do with me and how I wasn't meant to be here anyway what with it being his party. He went on to say how stupid I was being, how much of an arsehole I am and eventually stormed out the house.

Anyway, with his promises of good behaviour and being in control I let him have his party. By midnight he was just about already gone. There were kids playing on the xbox and taking control of the music (loud music) which was generally crap stuff. Kids were puking and he wasn't around to sort them out. Chavs were trying to fight their way in and only a lucky fluke stopped them along with some threatening poses from a couple of the guests here. In short, Matt was a disgrace and continued by puking in the garden, collapsing on the landing floor upstairs, telling a few of us trying to help him to 'fuck off' and then carrying on drinking near on all night, playing his guitar just before 5am and eventually stopping drinking and going to bed some time on the afternoon of the 1st. I was not a happy bunny and he has ruined his chances of having any further party here.

Our final remaining DVD player died on 1st too so I just thought ... what the fuck and bought some new ones in the hope we may have some better luck with them ... it's not like I can really afford them but I am of a mind now where I just don't give a shit anymore.

I wanna try and have some quality time with John over the next few days, it just always seems to be about the kids and it isn't good for either of us so when they go back to school on Thursday, we can relax and enjoy each others company some more than we have been ... except that Matt won't be back at college and is bound to do or say something to piss me off and ruin the moment.

I love that boy to bits but he's just being such a pain right now and I suspect not least because he's screwing up big time at Uni and has not yet got around to accepting responsibility for it and is, instead, preferring to settle his brow firmly in the sand.

Robin is out of the nut house at last ... just as long as he's well behaved and keeps eating three meals a day that is.

Oh, I feel like shit by the way ... and speaking of which, I am sick of bleeding so easily every time I go, it's really getting me down now and though I am sure it's no more serious that a regular nose bleed, it's all the same, really annoying and not to forget, sore!

Robin took me and John out earlier to the carvery and we ate way too much. This is part of the reason for me feeling so shit right now as well. Bloated tummy and the need to empty out now and then which means even more pain.

I've been achy too so am up right now waiting for the meds to kick in good and proper. I am really tired but couldn't settle, that and I also need to have the room cooler so am waiting for the air to circulate.

This blog is boring the pants off me now so I'm gonna stop.

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 ...
