A CRAGKNAGLING DAY
Lots of things I do are not conventional,
Many of them are entirely unintentional,
Like passing wind, leaking catheter bag, as well…
Walking into things, dropping the kettle,
Using aftershave instead of Dettol,
Dementia Doreen ensures I stay mental,
Peripheral Neuropathy affects me physically,
Dizzy Dennis, Backpain Brenda, Toothache Tiffany,
Diabetical Glaucoma Gladys affects me visually,
Problems with my short-term memory,
So, I don’t think I can ever act conventionally,
… … … … …. … … … … …
Somehow, I’ll fear things consequentially.
I used to love a coddle and cuddle,
And cunningly escaped from many a muddle!
Things domestic, dramatical, & dynamical,
Nowadays I have too many a whoopsies & debacle,
Like this morning, I sat doing things clerical…
It took me ages, which for me is normal, usual…
Arithmophobia; I struggle with owt mathematical,
Also, at anything diagnostical, I’m diabolical,
I felt down my leg, warm liquid trickling…
I cursed when I found the Catheter was leaking,
For all that time, my slipper had been filling…
The urine had been constantly leaking!
… … … … …. … … … … …
Then CorelDraw stopped working,
I turned it all off and on again,
It really was a frustrating pain…
Nothing was copyable or duplicable!
I was in anger-making trouble,
Bad luck had again burst my bubble!
Depression came; it was not deflectable,
No resolution, will-power detectable…
An emotional paralysis, yet demonical…
A revenge-wanting rage got my disapproval,
The solutions tried were only hypothetical,
Terminated my plans photographical…
… … … … …. … … … … …
My computer problems looked to be critical,
The carer said I looked pathetic!
My problem-solving was to me unfixable,
I was offered any, but I felt unconsolable,
I was at the end of my tether, it’s undeniable,
My problems are confusing and unfathomable,
I’ve had days that were more pleasurable,
Even if they are now unrecallable,
Am I or the computer more unreliable?
No help can be found; is it unrepairable?
Getting photos on seemed unachievable,
One option left to try, unbelievable,
It may work, but it sounds unconceivable…
… … … … …. … … … … …
I put my plan into action…
Can’t save owt, here goes, no option…
Closed it and got a reaction warning,
Need saving in programmes your closing,
Excel, CorelDraw, Word, and Norton…
I sat here without much of a notion…
A taste came to my throat; absinthian!
I pulled the plug… abnormalisation!
I spent a few minutes in contemplation,
A bag of nerves, idiot, not absolute, an alien,
… … … … …. … … … … …
Will it work? How will it be affected?
My heartbeat beat and accelerated…
Rebooted it, nervously admitted,
The Windows screen eventually appeared,
I opened CorelDraw, now almost scared,
The screen went blank and disappeared!
… … … … …. … … … … …,
Tired once more,
I’m not too sure,
Tried to save a photo,
A graphic of plain azure,
But it didn’t save, no go!

I spent hours trying to get the photographs and graphics to appear here. Only the first few went on, Huh!

Wee.

04:30hrs: From the kitchen.

Reflection shot through bacony.

Taken later in the morning.

Sorry, but I’m cheesed off!

Sorry about the shortage of loadable graphics & photos.

    The reflection photo has a ghostly feel. Excellent night and morning shots.

      Cheers, Tim. The carers just been, and during the visit I found that I’d left the potatoes that should have been cooling down, not on nought, but the highest level Six. Hoping the fire alarm does not go off. Burnt the saucepan, potatoes thrown away, cooker floor and kitchen had to be cleaned. And Have a burn burn scar on my knuckle.
      After a bad start to the day, and now this, I’m losing willpower here! Tsk, Hehehe! Took some photos after clearing up, but will the computer let me use them in the morning?
      Fingers crossed. Cheers, mate.

        Wait till you see what a mess I got in today, Tim. Tsk!

  2. You’re doing your best to get the computer functioning as it should. You did get some nice photos posted and some very descriptive writing worked out.
