01:30hrs: I woke to the blasting noise of the ‘Hum’, involuntarily passed wind, in somehow, with difficulty, hastened bumblingly to the wet room, and the Porcelain Throne. Only barely arriving in time again!
We Apologise for the interrupted broadcast – Normal Inchcock Service is now Resumed!
On with the updating of the Friday post. All done for 06:00hrs. I made a start on this blog, which took hours to get to this stage. Yes, Saccades Sandra and Shaking-Shoulder-Shirley were both playing me up. Tsk!
Then a right big marathon session on the WordPress Reader and the TFZer Facebooking. (In between wee-weeing and making mugs of tea. Har-har!) This took me five hours! Almost time to get my head down!
I had to go on CorelDraw then, to make up some graphic headers to use. More time lost, but I did enjoy doing it. Then went on the TFZer Facebooking. Another pleasurable, but time-consuming exercise! Midway through the graphicationalisationing, I took some shots of the sky, when I went to make a mug of tea.
Back to the computer, but things were not good with SAccades-Sandra. I didn’t lose any vision entirely, like yesterday, but focussing was too much of a hassle. So, I gave up, turned everything off, and checked to see if anything was on the Gogglebox worth watching. And there was!
Delicious! Wish I put more chips in the oven now. Hehe! A flavour rating of 7.4/10!
I got settled in the £300, second-hand, near-dilapidated, grotty-gungy-beige coloured, c1968, sometimes working, uncomfortable, rickety, rinky-dinked, rattling, rusty, resurrected, reconditioned, recalcitrant, rescued from the tip, recidivating and rotting-away recliner. That xyrophobia-suffering Brother-in-Law Pete damaged, while he was flat-sitting when I was in the Stroke Ward. And he fitted new CCTC cameras, he erected a drone-landing platform outside and searched for my valuables, which he found and took, for safe-keeping! (I still haven’t got all of the money back yet, eight-months later).
The TV viewing was interrupted severely, by my constant going into either a Thought-Storm, my acquisition of a new to me, ‘Blankness’ where I imagined what could have been, and regretted what had been, or having a few minutes kip very occasionally.
I sort of ended staring blankly at the TV screen, but the brain was not interested, it would sooner drift off into thoughts of failures, mistakes, errors and sillyosities I had committed over the years. Sleep was not an option, and I had no choice but to listen to my own mind, as it waffled on to me…
Horrible, almost sleepless night again.
Help!
Oh, I don’t know though, losing one’s marbles seems to suit me. It’s not as bad as I feared.
“To abscond or not to abscond that is the ques…” What a minute have you not already absconded living in that flat all alone on the edge of an ethereal subduction zone? At Least you have ghosts, pixies, fairies, and aliens to play dirty tricks on you.
Crunchy nut flakes sound pretty good. Nice simple-looking dinner that in reality, was absquatulated by your tummy.
Hahaha! An appreciated laugh invoked with this start! The ghosts, pixies, fairies, and aliens do keep me company. The damned ‘Hum’ as well. Tsk! Now, Storm Ciara! I live an active life… well, mentally, Hahaha!
TTFN Sir, thanks.
