This was concerning. Not why it was happening, obviously the Peripheral Neuropathy inspired Nicodemus Neurotransmitters, were playing up. But a worry, over how I am going to get around this morning. As if by magic, Shuddering-Shoulder-Shirley suddenly sank back to barely a tremor, she was persistent with it mind you, but this did not hamper my movement. Phew! Bit of luck there!
I came close to having an involuntary leak (well there was a tiny drop or two. However, the PPs coped with it well) and I got to the bucket in time. More good fortune? Worrying this is! Haha! The wee-wee mode was so different again. It was in the WSSUGG (Weak-Squirty-Spraying-Uncontrollable-Greeny-Grey) style.
I grafted (mentally) away for five hours, getting the many photographs into yesterdays blog, eventually getting it finished and posted off. I put a lot of stuff on Pinterest, then went on the WordPress Reader section.
Then I went on Facebooking. It’ll be a long job, with all the Nottingham photos to go in the albums. I’ll be back, eventually. Blimey, three hours later, still not finished, and time for the ablutions to be done. Put Computer Cameron in sleep-mode, and off for a limp to the wet room. I’m back.
Ablutionary Activities Report!
- I dropped the shower-seat moving it, and hit my right knee and foot!
- Took a wee-wee, and found Inchies fungal lesion bleeding!
- Lost half-an-hour stopping it bleeding!
- Dropped the toothpaste (2), then the brush (2)!
- Split the gum at the back, near one of the toothache teeth!
- Cut the mole on my right cheek!
- Dropped the shower gel, it burst open, and I had a mini-skating session…
- Then went down on the right knee!
- More time and mess in getting back up again!
- Had a medicating marathon!
- Tore the first pair of PPs out of the new bag!
- Clouted the left knee this time.
- I tried to wash of some spots from the feet. They were new growths!
It’s a damned good job I didn’t have to face the Sock-Glide!
Oh, Silver Lining Search Result: There were no toe-stubbings!
They are the fantastically comfortable, diabetic, non-binding, non-constrictive, circulatory Diabetic Bamboo Socks. Seam-free, moisture-wicking, anti-bacterial hosiery, made of Bamboo fibre. Expensive, but worth every penny! Anyone diabetic, or on Warfarin, should try them. I got mine from Amazon.
Not having worn any for so long with the toe-nails unable to be cut, I feared the nails might damage the socks and give me some pain, but they were fine.
I then got the bath towel in the flat airer. I worked out a way to thread the cloth, so most of the thin heating bars are effective. Smarmy Smug Mode Adopted!
I hope the worlds not ended and nobody has told me? Hahaha! I’m not wearing any socks again, with me not going out.
I got ontop updating this blog. As far as here, and had to go on CorelDraw to get some graphics done. Back in a while (probably about November! Har-har!)
The Bonners BBQ sauce was delightfully tangy and sweet at the same time. I wish I’d bought more than one tin, now. Tsk!
I got the pots washed, and stripped, getting ready for the kip under the quilt, and doubts came over me about a few things. Had I got the bank card safe? Where were the house keys and fob? A few other uncertainties as well, I had to investigate. All okay. During the search for peace of mind, I came across the Anticoagulation INR blood test result, in the hallway, posted earlier.
The paperwork had a new layout and page to it. (Or I’d just not noticed it before?)
It now shows: Note To Patients: On th
The INR level was well down at 2.1 but within the range. The service is struggling midst the Coronavirus mess, and the next test was not due until 23/06/2020, in two weeks time. A lot of pressure on then, I believe they have had nurses taken from them to work elsewhere, and new nurses training for the Anticoagulation and Deep Vein Thrombosis testing unit.
Finally, I got down into the £300, second-hand recliner. Because the other morning doing the ablutions, Rado 4 Extra was offering ‘Yes, Minister’, the first episode, it had rekindled my liking of the programme, and I put on and started to watch the DVD of the first series.
That did the trick! I was soon off, into the (Dream filled) land of Nod.
Your legs are abstractions in artsy fartsyness. You feet are definitely in need of work, your Ablutionary Activities Report is below normal, but to too awfully bad. Meal turned out okay and INR level in range. A pretty decent day considering.
