Maori: Rātū 4 o Hune 2019
03:50hrs. I rose grudgingly, from the depths of a glorious, dream free, wee-wee uninterrupted, five-and-a-half hour kip! The usual wee-wee being required.
The wee-wee was of the SNSWW (Short-No-Sensation-Wee-wee) style. I soon kicked off the slippers, which were too painful to wear, and the toe almost began to glow in the darkness. Hehehe!
The colouring was bright in the lamplight hand, purple/red, blue and sometimes it looked black? But I am colour blind.
Got straight on with updating the Monday Inchcock Today. With the photographs, this took me ages, but persistence in battling the electricalised jumping right-hand fingertips paid off. I got it posted to WordPress.
I celebrated with a super pain-free wee-wee! Hehehe!
I went to make a mug of tea but didn’t do so. I had to nip for a heavy-duty Porcelain Throne session. Although uncomfortable and painful, it was far less so than previous ones, and less messy too!
I checked and rang-out the shirt again, and back to the computer to make a start of this blog. Two hours, one paragraph, and four wee-wees later, I decided to get the ablutions sorted out. Carer Sharon is due at 0745hrs, so I wanted to get myself ready for her arrival. Any exercises today, are not going to be comfortable, salutary, and seem unjustified, with the stubbed-toe still being in an aculeate mood.
I found this “Didn’t-Mean-to-take-it”, picture later, on the SD card. Apparently taken as I made my way back indoors, from the deprecated new balcony.
Yet another call to pop to the wet room, for a wee-wee.
Sharon, from the Stroke Support Recovery Team, rang the intercom. She is such a nice lady, patient and knowledgeable too. She went over how things were with me and seemed au fait of many things that had happened already. Patient with me, and recognisant of my problems. I explained about the expected Doctors phonecall and or visit not taking place yesterday. The shaking from the Peripheral Neuropathy and the toenail situation. After a good long session, she departed. I thanked her, and off she popped.
I took another wee-wee, still of the SWWW (Short-weak-wee-wee) variety. Then planned to have some instant potato with added cheese and onions, a tin of garden peas and some sausages or pork for the meal later. See, I can make decisions, it’s just that I often change my mind a lot. Temporising and equivocating come easy to me nowadays. Tsk!
I made a brew of Glengettie tea, then went on CorelDraw to make up some diary page Headers and Thoughts.
Many hours later, I got the meal prepared.
The instant mash with onions, tomatoes, garden peas, sweet peas, roast pork and a lemon mousse. I had the last of the wholemeal bread thins with it. Flavour rating: 9.2/10.
The cheesy mash, after mixing, went into the oven on a tray and done until burnt. Great!
Took the medications and settled in the rickety dour-beige recliner. Put the TV on, and for the first time in ages, nodded off like I used to regularly before the stroke. I kept waking up a few times and then decided to doss down proper.
Pulled the woolly hat down over the eye, tried to think of happier times and England… and drifted off. Ahh!
I think you need to take your big toe to the Tate and become a piece of abstract art. I can hear the critics: “The red with muted purples tending toward black around the pink flowing into yellow gelatinous protrusion are perfect metaphors for Brexit.” You commented that Sharon didn’t understand my reference to Howard Hughes’ toenails? She must a young one. Very nicely arranged, good looking meal.
Hahaha! I’d love to make a graphic up for page tops, including “The red with muted purples tending toward black around the pink flowing into yellow gelatinous protrusion are perfect metaphors for Brexit.” If you don’t mine, Tim?
Sharon is not a nurse or medical woman, but is in charge I think. Howard recieved a blank look and furrowed brow.
Cheers mate.
I’d love to see what you come up with for the Tate. Sade state of lost cultural history.
Going on today’s, Tim. I’ll add tje Sad State of ost Cultural History.
I love it!
