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.

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 ...
