After 3 weeks

Had my eye surgery, still not quite healed yet but, every day gives me better vision and it is nearly at the point it was prior to me getting the lump in the first place. Still having the antibiotic gunk in my eye each day which I don’t like at all! Had some nice chats with some dear friends, sadly, two of them ended up paying a lot out with parking tickets but I really did appreciate everything they did for me, helped me clear my mind and come to at least some decisions on some of the issues bugging me. My birthday was really good (June 4) with Daisy, Sean & Adam paying for me to go on one of those mad climbing through the trees, zip wire and balance things … was quite awesome, forgot how much I enjoyed those things! Thankfully I didn’t copy my last attempt at something slightly similar in Florida and go arse over tit down anything! Got taken out for a meal with Matt & Anne which I also really enjoyed. I am sure I am more content with activities than I am with stuff. We are...

Good time for an update ….

Just as I am about to write this, Windows Live Essentials decided to do an update and closed it again but, anyway, maybe an update from me by way of revenge? I am not going to beat about the bush here, Javis Williams is bugging my life! He either crops up as a problem to solve in my dreams, one for which there is no solution so I am waking up as tired as I went to sleep, he crops up on my PC all too often and, by virtue of genetics there is a constant reminder of the guy who chose to have nothing to do with anyone here, deleted us from his life, almost certainly never gives us a moments thought except when he wants some money off someone, he may use the ‘I am so sad I don’t see my son’ card! It makes me so angrily frustrated I am not the sort of person who can just cut people off like that so, just about every day I suffer some hurt because of him, him who doesn’t give a shit! Apologies to his family if this comes across as mean, I cannot (frustratingly) change how I feel and no bugge...

A rather depressing one, that’s life

I have my phone turned off right now and will have for a while. I am not in the frame of mind to be answering calls right now. Those closest to me know how to get hold of me if needed. I am generally really positive but, just lately; am getting annoyed by things which go on around me or I read about. I need to be surrounded, for a while, by positive, supportive people and not selfish ones. There are too many bad people rewarded for what they do (or not as it goes), good people struggling with life's shit and I feel helpless to change anything. Life isn't fair at times. There are people with real worries struggling through trying to smile whilst others, with barely any worries, moan all day long. Good young adults throwing their lives away on drugs, kids being rejected by their parents, terrible service everywhere I go, prices getting more and more out of control ... I am struggling to stay positive. I am getting really down with constantly blurred vision, not being able to hea...

March nearly over

My eye should be sorted by the end of May, my ears, I don’t know, if I am pushy enough they may be sorted by the end of April, that would be cool. When I say ‘sorted’ I don’t mean cured just new hearing aids which may actually work, who knows! My photography ‘business’ got a new name, Wotalife Photographic. I had already placed it on the domain name and took me a while to realise it’d make quite a good name for a business, assuming that is ever what it becomes. I am really not sure where it is going as I don’t really know how to make the transition from amateur to pro whilst not totally buggering up the household finances. I can’t see it, as a money making venture, making a lot if any money for the foreseeable future and, if I head down that route, the benefits get screwed. I’d love to be off benefits but not if it means I can’t afford to pay the bills! ALL holidays are fully booked and paid for now, am happily looking forward to them and just waiting for something to happen which s...

Legacy Site

A site I created to pass on some life time gained knowledge and experience which I intend to update when ever I think of something which might be appropriate for it. Generally speaking, we all know we won’t be around forever and, I often think to myself, what would mum say? Of course, I’ll never know, she died in 1986 but, all the same, we can all do with some friendly advice now and then

Photography page Fully Working

Would very much like to get an eventual business from this photography thing but, lately, I have run out of eager volunteers prepared to make a date and get some pictures taken which would leave me, without investment, dead in the water as this has to totally rely on word of mouth to work.   Holidays to New York all booked. It turned out Virgin Holidays were the cheapest for car rental. Sean and me have something similar to a Mustang convertible whilst, me, Adam and Daisy are getting a tank! OK, more like a Jeer Grand Cherokee! The entire cost for flights, car and hotel for 7 nights was a little over £700 each so, I reckon, a damn bargain! We will be flying Virgin Atlantic from Heathrow with Robin kindly acting as our Limo service in his shiny new Chevrolet Orlando. On a related note, if I ever have need to call Virgin Holidays ever again to sort out a problem, remind me never to allow myself to call India again … a customer should never feel an urge to terminate anything whethe...

… and moving on

My photography now has a website which is here: Steve's Photography   So, anyway, taking pictures is what it is all about! I have to thank Adam loads, he’s no idea, or maybe he has, just how helpful he has been in my education of this hobby!   Booking NYC up on Wednesday … YAY!

So far in 2012 …

Family Still trying to move things on with getting Jermaine moved back to Northampton but simply don’t trust the people behind it so it’s probably never going to happen. Our feeling is that this is cost driven and all they can think about is how much they can save money so this ‘has’ to happen and they’ll configure any package to be in Jermaine’s best interest whether it is or not! Done a visit down to Kent already which was an epic event visiting several people in the one weekend staying all over the place in Kent and Essex. Kids and Grandchildren all doing OK Tech Stuff Did a PC rebuild as it was just plain horrible. Pleased to say that after replacing some memory modules and totally reloading the OS, everything seems to be working OK. Health Been having Reiki sessions which are lovely, not been having massage which is a bummer as I really need it. My eye cyst is getting worse to the point where my vision is seriously affected, am not even sure I should be driving to be hones...
