My Head Hurts

They are at it again ... I should be shocked but I'm not. Matt is back to smoking ... he's apparently so hooked on his 'one or two' a day habit he finds it impossible to quit. This is, in fact, so typically Matt. Full of intentions yet expecting them to just resolve themselves which he knows they will because he's an expert on such things. He is also using poppers still, he bought some in London at the weekend. He's been smoking and using reccie drugs in front of Daisy, setting a great example ... I think not.

Daisy, for her part, has been lying to me and stealing from Matt. In this case it is the mentioned before poppers from his room. It's just so very difficult to ground her any more than I have but I still have some avenues left open to me.

Matt in particular has so much going for him yet seems intent on hitting the self destruct button. He doesn't like it any more than I do but then, he'd have to actually change his attitude to stop being an idiot and as he knows everything that matters, he cannot get his head around the possibility he may be wrong about something.

Robin got the keys for the bungalow earlier and is happy as Larry albeit that he doesn't know that just yet! At least he has the carpets sorted and it's just a matter of getting some paperwork sorted then the hard work of actually packing and moving which, if he makes his case well enough, he can get help with paying for.

On a plus side ... and stuff could still go tits up on this ... I received this from the Health Commissioning Team:

Also I would like to inform you that funding has been agreed for Jermaine to move to The Coach House in Corby subject to training needs being met and adequate plans being put in place to meet his health care needs.

The next stage is to confirm with Matthew the provision of training and meet to discuss a transition for Jermaine.

Yours Sincerely

Annoyingly, I am so cynical and tired much of the time that I cannot cheer about that as much as I would like to. Things have been on the brink of happening before then all fallen through. If only the defence system of my immune system was as strong as that for my emotions!

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 ...
