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?

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 ...
