Old, sick, weary, but harmless. I need to make others smile!
Inchy: Tuesday 29th August 2023 – Common Sense Embargo Day
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – What a fantastic day it was today it was! Marvellous, gay, abandoned, happy, rewarding, stimulating... Fair enough, it’s just that I’m getting fed up to the one-and-a-half back teeth I’ve got left; with my own wailing & moaning about life’s naturally unlucky, perversive, frustrating pattern of late!In fact, it was a lot easier than yesterday’s doom, gloom and despondency & pessimism. But, not by a lot! I did the usual going off track when doing the blogging and found myself working on the rhyming words list again. So, it is now nearly 22:00hrsand I’m only just starting on this blog. Tired out, weary and fighting falling asleep. I’ve not yet had a meal, or shave, and I’ve been up since 02:55hrs! has had far greater success in getting me confused and misled.But one thing was like yesterday: instead of giving myself bad language and feeling sorry for myself, I’ve just said ‘Sod-it’ a few times, and was totally unaware of the things I’d not done, and started different things done, which confused me more than ever! I think I need help. Hehehe! – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
Woke, I looked at the clock and tried to get back to sleep, but without any luck, but I did try.
So about 02:55hrs, I got the night pouch removed from , then hauled my elephantine body from the c1966, £300 pound, second-hand charity-shop bought, crumb-containing, odour-retaining, Harold’s Haemorrhoid-testing, nauseatingly beige coloured, non-working, virus-breeding recliner. Temporarily, I had a desire to get so much done… it didn’t last long.
I went to check that no taps (faucets) or the stove had been left on, and I got the kettle on for a mug of Glengettie.
Got the waste bags sorted out.
To the wet room for a wash and get the medicationalisationings tackled. Shortages of medications: Germoloid, Germolene, Olive Oil and Nasal Spray! Tsk!
I’m not sure if I have some new leg water papules coming up or not.New spots of some sort? The feet seemed to have differing colours; they started like this last time the feet legs and especially the ankles blew up? I’ll check later. The white area on the toes seems to be getting bigger? My email, American Petal-Angel Lisa, suggested this may be Reynauds? I must look this ailment up. ♥
Got the computer on with a view to getting a good early start on yesterday’s blog finishing. But, no! With an hour of getting not much done was on…
The Asda order arrived while I was in another wait for the to start again. A big order today… Fridge products sorted… Then, the frozen ones… Too much bread in stock! Tsk! Fridge cram-packed… Bladder Belinda liquids built up… My new favourites, are LU soft lemon-flavoured cakes. Very nice indeed. During the day I ate two of these, four shortcake biscuits and two bananas. No meal yet but I may stay awake long enough to make something. Or not! Very nice, too!
Three hours after getting back on the computer. Brown-outs had grown to ten.
But seemed to be getting far less now?.
Then, my wandering off onto the word listing for the odes began! I spent hours on it, just not realising. Carer Kara called twice, and Carer Benjamin also.
As I was eating the second banana and taking this photo… I felt the warm liquid in the lower region inside the Protection Pants! I knew immediately that this was a bad one. Off to the wet room, it was I’m afraid due to . And no Daktacort Cream left! Stopping the flow of blood took me ages. Messed up my legs, dirtied the floor, and annoyed me so much. Once the flow stopped and I’d spent aeons medicating, it cost me another hour just to get the floor and myself clean again. The haemoglobin seemed very thick this time? I returned to the computer, cursing, almost spitting, and feeling rather pissed off again. Especially when my pathetic ground to a halt again. But it was the last failure. Bless them!
Carer Benjamin arrived for the late call. I was in a surprisingly perky mood for some reason.I took his blood pressure and temperature. All came out in NHS normal band: 123/68, Pulse 68 & Temperature 36.8 all good.
I went to the kitchen to put the oven on for hopefully some chips to bake. And took these two shots of the evening sky. Bootiful!
00:25hrs: I did some more on this blog. Then got the nosh sorted and were cooking.
Have a Great Day, Each!
