Friday 30th October 2009

Mad dash to Milton Keynes this morning as we were all in the mood for some meatballs from Ikea and lovely they were too.

This afternoon James came over, first time he's seen Josh since 16th October. He called asking to see him yesterday. Being a bit of a busy day today, well, this afternoon for sure, she suggested he came over about 3 until 5 (ish). He turned up at 3 and stayed until 4:50 though, the (ish) part meant he could stay until at least 5pm.

There were no apologies for the wishes of death upon us, the insults to Deej, the statement on Facebook that he'd kill me himself for want of a gun, none of that. But, apart from that and a few minor niggles, all seemed well.

Third hand news though, apparently, how true this is I don't know, he's written on Facebook that he was given no privacy whilst he was here.

He spent the entire time in Josh's room. Daisy and Sean were in their bedroom where they would normally be that time of day, Deej was only here part of the time and then, in the office, Zoey was in her room and I was either in the office or in Daisy & Seans bedroom, all quite normal for us lot. The baby monitor was on but then, it always is and it could have been turned off for want of asking, we didn't even think about it until this apparent comment, we certainly didn't pay any attention to it.

So, if true, again, another visit which had to be critisized rather than appreciated, why?

Basically, the best thing for Josh is that we all at least try to get along, I just don't understand why James has to be posting negative comments about us all the time?

True. I don't know for sure it is true though, I am sure someone will send me a screen grab some time soon, there are enough interested parties volunteering such things. I don't need to post this here but, it's my release, always has been and, I feel justified being honest on here. Whilst untruths exist elsewhere on the net, I use this space to tell anyone interested, the way things really happened.

Have a lovely visitor this evening who stopped for dinner and, as usual, another busy Saturday for tomorrow.

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 ...
