Blue Skies

It is lovely to wake up to blue skies in the morning, it’s one of those ‘anything is possible’ sort of days but, I may choose to do nothing.

Once again I have woken up with a headache. I don’t know why it is happening every morning and it is starting to get annoying … thankfully I have something to take, thank you Robin.

Speaking of Robin … I’d like to thank him for being an amazing friend. Annoyingly he is undervalued, used and abused by too many. It would appear to that, at least my grandchildren type babies love him and he’d never have thought it possible to have any mutual feeling of happiness between him and a child I suspect! Kids make very quick judgements between good people and bad people.

I was watching some video yesterday of the Boggy Creek airboat trip me and Deej will be doing next year. Hmm, I got the feeling it has the potential to disappoint! I was hoping it would be teaming with alligators, huge ones and yet, all the clips I saw seemed to just have baby alligators and lots of birds with the focus on speed. Still, if Deej gets to see just one alligator in the wild it will be one more than he managed last time!

Josh is still teething, not sleeping well, not eating well and, it seems Imogen is in the same boat. Hopefully, both will be over this spell of discomfort soon.

James should be in deep shame for what he did walking out. Every week and month makes being part of Josh’s life seem all the more impossible. The more I find out about his life in Kent, the more angry I get. Josh deserved better in a dad and, thankfully, he has it, in Sean.

My previous statement about having sorted all the Christmas gifts may have been premature. It seems we really have not yet sorted all the gifts, back to the drawing board. The balance I never seem to get is, do people prefer quantity or quality, a couple of high value gifts or a selection of cheaper ones? I probably have that wrong this year, it doesn’t look right because some will have just a couple of gifts whilst others have several … oh, why does something so enjoyable have to be so stressful!

Down to Disneyland in a couple of weeks and I am really nervous and that isn’t good. I am getting stressed because of who is going and whether or not the personalities are going to rub each other, there could be too much bickering, too many delays and the whole experience is soured by not enough consideration to others. The trouble with my being this stressed is, as soon as I relax, I am near certain to get ill and, with so much driving to do and my being the only driver, that just gives me more stress!

Party tonight, I’m driving so no drinking (again). Not that I am much of a drinker anyway but, somehow, not being able to makes me feel like I should all the more!

Had a meeting at Coach House yesterday, all seemed to go OK. Jermaine was a little grumpy, seemed a little tired but, apart from that he was alright.

Tea and a late breakfast I think.

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 ...

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...

There are some funny people in this world!

Earlier on this year someone added me on Facebook. Quite soon she was adding many people I knew. We were starting to wonder who this was as there was so little on her profile. To be on the safe side and, suspecting it may be someone pretending to be someone else, I was careful what I wrote to them. Eventually, it did become very obvious it was someone faking a profile. I challenged them to stay if they wanted but, today they deleted the profile. I have never done anything to upset this person, I just exist. She added me and my family just to take the piss out of us and to try and get extra ammunition to use against my friends, it is all rather sad. Speaking of sad … Look, I fully understand that James has issues, what they are, I don’t have a clue but he has them and it is for Daisy and him to sort out. I think Daisy would have liked to sort it out between them but, it seems, they are going to have to take the legal route. I totally get all that. I don’t like it but – such is life....
