Optimism, anticipation, aspiration, and yearning…
While all around us, people are killing and demeaning,
Oligarchs, their reasons for existence are self-prospering,
Power, ruling, financial gain, self-wealth accumulating,
What percentage of their profit are they donating?…
To war victims, innocents, to stop the war’s killing?
The dying, homeless, blind, diseased and starving?
Selling rockets, tanks, ammunition, to powers warring!
There are those out there, I’m always applauding…
Greenpeace, RSPCA, the NHS, all financially-struggling,
Gangsters so violent, mugging, drug-selling & taking,
Burgling, carjacking, stabbing, and shooting,
Our PM has been pensioners & farmers robbing,
Former barrister? That’s why he’s an Ace at lieing,
His porkie-pies have been amassing,
I’m looking towards his passing…
To Heaven or Hell, I’ll be happy death-knelling
I Fank You!
Carer Nimra got the diabetic socks on my feet, gave me the medication, and did the following two calls. Lunch, then at teatime.
A District nurse called to check on my leg. No need for any plasters, she said, but left one just in case it leaked again. I apologised for bothering her.
A MAMMOTH SEIZURE.
The Iceland delivery arrived.
Nimra made a call.
THEN, I COULDN’T BELIEVE THE ABSOLUTELY STUPID THING THAT I’D DONE!
A second duplicate order arrived from Iceland!
I reckon the driver knew about this earlier, and that’s why he was so pissed-off with me.
Positively anti-social this visit!
Depression Darius Dawned, and I just couldn’t think what made me order two for the same day?
I was ashamed and angry at myself at the same time.
I rang Jenny and asked her to take some of the duplicated dated items and issue them to whoever wanted them. Iced coffees galore as well. Breads, croissants, etc.
I was feeling really down and lacking confidence now! I took the carrier of food down to Jenny’s apartment. Guess what?
I got out of the lift on the wrong floor! Not that it bothered me so much, but it was the continuation of errors that got to me. I rang Jenny’s bell and handed her the carrier bag, explaining that I had got out of the lift on the wrong level. She smiled and said she did that as well. Hehe! She is a treasure.🤎
I got back to my cell… I mean, flat, to find that this time I’d left the cold water tap running!
What next, I thought; I’ll tell you…
I was back on the computer, having accomplished so little, and all the time was lost due to my own incredulity. Scepticism and doubt about my errors, along with worry over my future.
I can’t go on like this. I’m praying someone from Social Services calls or reads this blog. I need help.
Carer Nimra made her last call. I told her of my rotten day. That did nothing solution-wise, of course.
SHIT!
The long standing prob;;em of shortage o memoru came up again Nagkrangles!
Computer gone so slow,
Telling me various things will no longer be able to be saved or stored?
I may be on my last blog, so I’ll try to save it and send it.
Otherwise, it’s all a waste of time; no one will know. Cheers
Sorry, second order! The calf pads on the wheelchair might have a screw lock on them or a click lock. If they were in that position when the chair was shipped, there might be a set screw that needs to be removed. Those things can be a real puzzle.
Thanks, Tim. I’m hoping that Ejaz will come on Monday. He set it up, and I thing I was told how to reset them, but just cannot work out how it was to be done.
I can see it being a home for me before long. Still, I may get help with the computer problems’ if they let me take it with me. (Vain hope). I’ve tried moving moveable bits, but am not sure if I’ve made it worse now.
I might be brave later on, and have another look. Cheers, Tim.
Hopeful ode, Gerry, and fine photos. It’s bad that you had a major seizure. I hope it ended well for you. Have a blessed Sunday. 😍🙏
Wot a kick-in-the-head kind of day, kind Sir! We’re all seeing double today, just by observing those photomagraphs of the stacked deliveries. Wowser dowser!
The red car influenced other drivers to go ahead and park on the chevron. Wonder where that red car has parked today?
Loved that cartoon about the faux holiday. Oh me oh my! Gad, even.
Holy cowsers saith Billum
I really need help with the Computer, My Brain Interlopers and Memory, Billum.
The medics seem to accept it all as to be expected?
My love of blogging… or rather, my response to losing the blogging and or computer, scares the shit out of me. (Sorry)
Maybe my Arithmophobia, and/or bad memory are causing these cock-ups with orders? The bank manager will text me again on Monday, I feel sure.
The old Carers used to help me with orders and banking. But the new ones do not.
Glad yo liked the different cartoon, Billum.
That was generous to offer the food around, someone will be glad of that. Are the carers NHS appointed or local govt? Don’t they offer to source help? Here the carers note needs and report them. The driver is paid, and it is absolutely not his/her job to judge customers. I think when you live on your own there’s no one to debrief properly with and self-recriminations are the hardest to sit with, they can fester if not let go. I hope you’re in a better place by the time this comes to you.
High, Paul. Waste not want not, the only good bit to come out the most catastrophic Saturday – ever.
Local Council arrange the Carers, via the Social Services, mate.
Bless you for asking. I’m in a more resigned to defeat mode this Sunday. Not yet tried to use WP, but anticipate the same problems with WP, and the shortage of memory.
To be honest, I’m nervous of trying to create a blog again – for fear of all the messages coming up again and not knowing what I can or should do about them.
How can there be know one to help? I’ve asked every Carer, the Wardens, Nurses Social Lady… How can I get help!
Now having spent a small fortune on a wheelchair, all those unwanted groceries, spectacles, toe-cutting, etc. I fear the bank manager will be texting me soon about things. Had I been able to get help two years ago when the problems arose, I had the funds to get a new one if necessary, but not now.
I could cry. I did last night – pathetic self-pity.
Even High-Mood-Horis is unavailable, not that he ever solved anything in my brain; I just go into a sod-em-all mode. Which cures nothing, of course.
Why has the Doctor & Social Lady has not read all my hidden, and open, pleas for help on my blog?
I feeling pretty depressed to be honest.
Thanks again, Paul.
I’m stunned that there isn’t a community help hub.
I so wish I could blame Herr Starmer! Haha!
Pure delight
Thank you, kindly! 👍🏼
