Welsh: Dydd Sadwrn 5 Ionawr 2019
23:05hrs. I woke from another dreamless night (Well not that I could recall), an entirely different person from the one that went to sleep. Although in the same position as when I nodded off, the empty food tray balancing precariously on my bulbous belly. The frame of mind had lightened considerably, and it prompted the slightly more optimistic mode for the Thought of the Morning Rhyme/Ditty. (At least until I took my blood-pressure later. Humph!)
There were no signs of any nocturnal nibbling. The mind began to muse of this, and that it had to suddenly concentrate solely on freeing the body mass from the £300 second-hand rusty recliner, and off to the Porcelain Throne.
The evacuation was one of the easiest and painless ones for ages. Things were looking good, now. Naturally, this worried me, what with my recent history with my ailments! Tsk! My EQ warned me not to get too excited or expectant! Hehe! The boils on the back shoulders and neck, felt like they were increasing in number? Overall, I considered things to be on the up and up, though. My sense of humour had even returned.
I went to the kitchen to get the Health Checks and medications sorted. By the time I had got things ready, I’d had three SPWWs (Sharp-Painful-Wee-wees). Much less liquid, and a lot less power in the stream. However, the wee-weeing took an inordinately long time on every effort today. Good or bad thing? I got the sphygmomanometer working the first time.
So I opened the window to take some photos of outside, not done any for a while.
I had a bit of a Dizzy Dennis spell while I was updating the Friday Post. But it cleared up after a half-hour or so, and my ferdrayt departed. But it meant I was finding mistakes and repeatedly editing later on.
Got the Friday blog finished and sent off to WordPress and made a start on this effort.
The SSWWs were as I said, far less volume, but coming more frequently, especially after I took the Furesomide tablet.
I did the second Health Checks much earlier than usual, to see if the BP had improved.
As a once said to me, as I lay there on the treatment table in the GUM clinic, while Little Inchies fungal lesion bled profusely: “A bi gezunt!” (Loosely, When you have your health you have everything!) I was drugged at the time, so maybe I just thought I heard her say it… but it took my mind off of the pain for a while, bless her!
I made a start on this blog next, in between the SSWWs, naturally.
I visited the WordPress Reader section.
Made up next weeks medication pots. Not without a couple of mistakes, that fortunately I noticed and put right.
I have to say the legs are a lot easier today when moving. This made me hope that perhaps soon, I can get out for a long hobble and get some chinwagging in, and maybe get over to see Sister Jane and Pete and get their pressies to them. Tuesday would be an idea, cause I’ve got to go to the early blood test, then if fit enough, I would walk to town and catch a bus to their Mansion. Most likely, they will have arranged an evening at the theatre, gone to a party, or a booze up, go to a football match or will be visiting Royalty that day, but I can email and ask them. Hehehe!
Damn it, got the Dizzies bad again now. Grumph!
Nodded off, but only for a few minutes or so although panic set in when I woke initially. Klutz!
Tasty nibble.
I spent hours and hours making a series of
TFZer graphics but did so enjoy doing them. Got them sent off and on the Facebook albums. Here are a few of them.
After finishing them, I realised that the SSWWs had lessened today, and Dizzy Dennis was leaving me alone now. A cough is coming on, though. You can’t win can you… well, I can’t! Hehehe!
I got the pie and potatoes in the oven and checked the carrots and peas in the crock-pot. I think they should both be ready at the same time.
Did the Health Checks and took the medications.
The ready-made minced beef in gravy was added to the peas and carrots, mash in the dish last. I reckon I’m getting better now, cause this meal went down most pleasingly. I had a cheapo mousse for afters, with some of the Squirty light-cream on top. A flavour rating of 8/10 was given. It would have been higher, but I put a little too much demerara sugar in the peas and carrots.
As I settled wearily into the £300 second-hand recliner, I appreciated three things. One: I had not done any ablutions today! That will be good in the morning trying to shave the heavy-stubble without cutting myself! And Two: The SSWWs had lessened as the day went on. Fingers crossed! Three: Although I did not have an EIBWBBBs (Evil Ironclad Boll-Weevil black biting beetle) Search & Destroy mission today, I can recall seeing only one of them?
You have had a good day. Good looking set of legs, right normal blood pressure readings, a super looking sausage and curly fries breakfast, savory looking stew for dinner, and a fantastic set of graphicalizations with six pack abs and all.
Cheers Tim. Legs started off alright, indeed looking better this morning… but, oh dearie me, up they’ve filled again! Tsk!
Dizzy Dennis having a go at me…
Still, yer don’t like to complain does yer? Haha!
Hope the snows cleared your end.
