Damn Monday!

Today, I keep being reminded, is 'Monday' ... actually, it is 00:52 on Tuesday morning right now but you get my meaning.

Why is that significant? Well, it is if I have things to do on Wednesday and try to do them on Tuesday because I think Monday is Tuesday making Tuesday Wednesday.

I have a sore throat, yeah, you know, it kinda hurts but pain killers seem to settle it ... I ache like hell as well, that could be the results of the flu jab Saturday ...  also have an ear infection, I really should get that sorted ... watch this space, I shall forget all week and remember at the weekend! Earlier, I bent over to sort out the dishwasher and puked, this is not good.

his blog has seen the last negative entry regarding James ... I think Ihave been using this space to defend myself against untruths which have been shared but, in reality, it is now pissing me off all this tit for tat sort of stuff. Fom now on I am going to presume that people know me well enough to know the truth and, if not, to afford me the courtesy of asking. I figure, if a person can't be arsed to ask then they probably either have little interest or they wouldn't want to hear anyway so, either way, what is written here is either gonna be thrown back at me or seem somewhat pointless.

As it happens, I want a situation develop where I can just be dad and granddad, where I don't get stuck in the middle taking the blame for being the messenger. With that in mind, I am taking a step back. I will help, advise or otherwise if asked and, I always do my best to keep everyone happy or reach a compromise. I need to concentrate more on me and Deej. Apart from our honeymoon, when I was ill, we've hardly spent any time together since we got married nearly 4 months ago now (believe it or not)

My last word on the matter is this ... anyone who can help the situation of James, Daisy and Josh please speak to them and kindly help. Otherwise, maybe better all round if everyone just stay out of their business.

Let's just get along, be friends ... one way or another, we are family!

Now, is anyone interested, among yourselves, of taking bets on just when our car will get cleaned for the first time?

Am shattered now, off to bed ... too late as usual  :-(

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 ...
