Knackered of wot!

Started sorting out the girls rooms on Saturday. Both the bunks went early in the day via freecycle and a guy who took Zoey's bed also dropped off a desk at the tip for us. Further to that, we have been invited round for coffee, how ever so very weird (but nice)

Started the painting and was soon feeling quite ill and rather sorry for myself. Went at it rather half heartedly but did at least manage to put together Zoey's bed.

By Sunday I was feeling really bad and went to bed for a few hours, not a lot was really getting done.

Got up around 7 to greet Kay & Geoff, Jermaine, assorted carers, Matt & Anne. Maine was in a strange mood and managed to hit both Deej and Kay though I was spared.

Matt said something which made me think in that he and Anne were feeling ill when they were decorating but someone has to do it ... that could have been me saying that so after they all left I got on with the decorating whilst Deej was in bed. He got up at some point and helped out. I think he went to bed around 5am and me at around 6.A stupid time to go to bed but at least I felt like I did something.

Was up again at 8 to take Daisy to school and do some shopping then back home and worked through until we finally finished everything at around 8:30 this evening.

Just had a bath and so know I should be in bed but I am crap at sleeping whilst the girls are still up and about. I may just skip tomorrow so if no one hears from me, don't be too shocked.

My health is now predictably crap and I ache all over but at least I didn't give up this time.

For the record, for interested parties, my phylosophy on married or partners guys who wanted to shag me was always the same, their problems were not my problems. I'd ignore them in the street but that would be my only concession.

Just started to read Mort seeing as I had to give up on 'The Light Fantastic' seeing as they have added that to the 'Colour of Magic' on Sky as I found out by watching part 1

Are we having fun yet?

Budget Day

So, we have the ‘Let’s buy a whole host of gullible voters day’ with George Osborne. No doubt we’ll be told how employment is rising, how the deficit is falling, how we’re all so much better off now than we were (compared to what?). We’ll be told that there are still tough times ahead but that only a Conservative government can steer us through them. It will be pointed out how inflation remains low, how not raising duty on fuel has helped everyone as is seen by the current lower prices at the pumps (it’s going up again George). In short, I should listen to this budget later and decide to vote Conservative in May but, I won’t. Labour certainly did nothing to avoid the mess the country got in but they didn’t cause it. They made the mistake of trying to be too conservative, allowing high finance the freedom to cause a catastrophic cock up for which they took zero responsibility. They made the mistake of allowing Gordon Brown to take the job of Prime Minister, one for which he is totally...

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 ...

Understanding the British

As a nation we are a funny lot. We get through the worries of life with humour. Not always good taste humour and the words 'too soon' are often mentioned! Now, this is not unique to us, many other countries adopt humour to get them through. I am going to show some ideas of humour here, don't shoot me, we're just musing this topic. Moment of silence for the people who agreed to live with shitty roommates because they "wouldn't be spending much time at home anyway" There is going to be a lot of pressure over the next few days to talk to friends and family. Fight it. Stay positive Anyway, you get the picture. Actually, most of those came from the USA. It's terribly British for one person to cough and a whole host of others stare and one person shouts, 'we're all dead now, he's got the virus'. Obviously it's not a joking matter but, without keeping our sense of the ridiculous we would go quite potty. Estimates c...
