PART TWO
The Differences twixt farcicalities, & eccentricities,
Can be minimal, as with decorations and baubles
Yet obvious with pastilles and bastilles,
Plainer, with the oligarchs and proletariats,
Crowds in England, in Scotland, clamjamfrys,
I don’t know what I’m doing some days!

05:30hrs: Took the nightpouch off, went into the kitchenette, and put the kettle on. Then, the rumbling innards began.
So, off to the wet room and Po
rcelain Throne. Trotsky Terence played no part in the evacuation this morning. Come to think of it, Constipation Conrad didn’t either. Rock-solid! I played with the crossword puzzle for ages, but I had the same amount of luck as Trotsky did. Zilch!
07:15hrs, Carer Ejaz arrived, full of the joys of Spring. He issued the prescription Medications and reminded me to take the B12 vitamins, as my blood levels are low in them.
I took some potatoes out to slow-cook in the crockpot for later. Sliced some red onion & added that.
Started on the blog catch-up, and an hour or so later, the JS delivery arrived. The driver to the bags through to the kitchen for me.
Canned Irish Stew is currently cheaper than at Iceland, Asda, and Aldi. So, I bought a few cans and plan on adding some extra potatoes and Gungo Peas sauce. I use the Milk Roll loaf to soak up the juices. I’m getting carried away again! Flavoured Spring Water, fresh garden peas
(They’ll go in the Irish stew as well). Cakes, crisps, biscuits, bicarbonate of soda. Got the pod peas into the cooler.
No butter-butter, Iced Coffees for visitors & nurses, sliced red onions,
sliced mushrooms, cheese spread, & some laundry &
washing items; washing up liquid, bleach, laundry softener/freshener. The canned food cupboard was soon filled up!
The bikkies and cake cupboard were utilised. 10p less than the Iceland ones at 90p each for 6! I admit they are not nice!
The Maryland vegan cookies were available for purchase. I didn’t need them, but they were 35p cheaper than Iceland, 25p cheaper than Asda, and 40p cheaper than Ocado.
Carer Jyoti called and said no medications were required. She tried to find a way to change to a louder ringtone but had no luck.
Back on the blogging, and J called, with some washing, bless her. She smelled the potatoes that I’d put in the crockpot…
six hours ago, but had accidentally put them on the highest setting.
My first real cock-up of the day. Joe took them out and told me to dry them off before they crumble. Well, two-thirds did just that as I tried to dry them. I salvaged seven little spuds and ate them straight away. Put some fresh ones on for tonight’s planned meal.
I believe that despite the mental and neurological problems in my later years, I have gleaned a new quality. Oh, yes! I’m not sure which name to give it; perhaps you can advise on the three I thought of or suggest a better one. Do you have any suggestions, please? (funnier)
Cock-it-up-itis, Iris?
Misconstrue, Miscalculate, Mistakemaker, Mavis?
Ever in the Ether, Ethel?
Hehe!
I made next week’s food order from Ocado. They seem to have more options and choices in the Silesian-type and hot dog sausages.
I shelled some garden peas and added the remaining potatoes to accompany the Irish Stew and Gung-Po sauce meal later on.
Then, as I was waiting for CorelDRAW to save the file…
I was in the exact position I was in when I felt myself going. I knew, quite wrongly, that it had been a mini-seizure of maybe a minute or two. Boy, was I wrong! I checked the file saved at the time on CorelDRAW. Over four hours ago!
And coming out of it was like… the confusion was so deep. It took me ages to realise how long it had been, and when I stood up
, as
all but had me over. Five minutes later, I felt much better…
, I was lucky to be where I was when I went over, tatty, scruffy, unkempt, uncomfortable, virus, microorganism, bug, bacterium, bacillus, germ, parasite producing, eyesore-horrendously grungy, disease-fermenting second-hand, beige-coloured, £300, charity shop bought, crumb-retaining, moth-eaten, non-working, itch-encouraging, incommodious, Haemorrhoid Harold testing, catheter tube yanking, recliner. Also, I was with it enough to throw myself at it on my way down.
Certainly saved me from serious injury.
Back on the blog!
Carer Mizra did the teatime call. Medications.
I was feeling weary, early again, and foggy-minded from, I assume, the seizure.
Not much of the Irish Stew to be seen, I podded a whole packet of garden peas, after shelling them, of course. Hehe! Tasted nice, though!
My estimate of the mood split today.
,
Again, there were no in-betweens; just the two extremes, no moments of normalcy.
Nothing new here, then. Hahaha!

All that talk of food has me ready to get off-line and eat!!!
Haha! Cheers for the smile, Sir.
I’m hungry now, Gerry.
I’m about to dine again, Tim. Did you eat well?
Cheers.
Good dinner. 😋
Great!
Probably not knowing is the better path methinks 🙂
Logicality again, from Paul!
