NOT SO GOOD THIS WEEK!

Last night, I tried to learn to be a sky-reader,
I was advised on how by my new Grim Reaper,
I felt like an augurer, clairvoyant, an astrologer,
It was so easy for me to become a prognosticator,
Messeger flowed to me, informed me, without a palter,
I felt as if I had become a psychic, a sibyl, a visionary,
My seeing future events could not have been clearer,
Like I was a prophet, druid or soothsayer,
A psychic, a haruspex, a wisdomed sage, a heralder,
A fortuneteller, mind reader, or a druid-soothsayer,
Hypothesiser, prophesier, seer, diviner, foreteller,
A theurgist, pishogue, sangoma, or an oracler,
The clarity of the details could not be lucider,
Grim’s system could not be any user-friendlier,
“Read the sky only when you suffer paranolia”…
“Do it straight after you’ve had a seizure!”,
“Best when you just listened to Starmer”!
“This’ll empower you to be a prestidigitator”,
I asked him if he meant a wizard or a conjurer?
“Well, no, but they’ll all of us, to get rid of Starmer!”
I did all he suggested; it helped my being agnosticall.
After a seizure, EQ on form… this is apocryphal…
The cloud formations spoke to me, spoke antithetical,
Clouds took turns in advising me; there were many.
Each forecast was doom-ridden, at the least, melancholy,
Each of the coming failings, due to Starmer, you see,
One pointing out Starmer speaking lies, anecdotal…
Unscientifically, qualitative and circumstantial,
I moved up to contact the planets, and was able…
Pluto only spoke of things like faith & hagiography,
I did get a forecast, though, out of Mercury,
About my visit to the neurologist on Wednesday,
Water on the brain, but my hippocampi…
Would soon be killing off my bit of memory…
I didn’t know it would get personally advisory?
To cheer us up, Starmer will lose his grip, Pluto says,
He will be forced out of office, in a mental haze,
He’ll return to his barristerisationings,
But end up on the streets, selling dodgy aftershaves,
This Ode is one of my worst ever, most horrendous…
I’ve just reread it, and I’m feeling bilious!
I thought I was known for my broadmindedness,
This effort is basically cockamamie, inferior, unstudious,
Grammarly-deficient, dissatisfactory, & ludicrous,
It seemed to have such fun, wit, and good ideas,
I now read it, and found it to be disceptatious,
paid me short visits,
But
visits were exiguous,
Although his visits were by far the shortest,
They brought me joy; they were conspicuous!
This ‘Sod-’em-All’ mood, known for its ephemeralness,
Gives me a feeling of ephemeralness…
I love Horis’ killing off Darius’s efficaciousness,
Yet guilt lingers, not a part of Inchies…
Fretting, worrying; yes, not bothering is erroneous,
But gawd-strewth, it feels great, and that’s the truth!

I stirred at around 04:00hrs. Tried to work out what was needed today. Realised I’d only had two hours kip, in the c1966, £300, second-hand charity-shop bought, crumb-containing, odour-retaining, Harold’s Haemorrhoid-testing, nauseatingly beige coloured, non-working, virus-breeding recliner. And was soon back in the land of nod, with sweet Morpheus.
I stirred for the second time at 06:00hrs. A reluctance to rise lingered, but was soon shattered by the imminent start of a rear-end movement. Good job that I was in the recliner, which was much easier and quicker to get out of than the hospital bed. I had a mild panic attack as I stood up too quickly and all but lost my balance. Then grabbed both sticks and dashed, well, that’s not the word, more, sort of hobbled and limped hastily to the wet room. I made it with seconds to spare. The pants I tore off, and I’m glad I did, if I’d faffed about taking them off, I’d have been in a right mess. No need to clean myself, my legs, or the floor this time, as is often the case, I was ‘Seconds away from disaster!’ Then I realised that I’d dragged the nocturnal cather bag with me, but no
or da
mage to report. I emptied it into a bowl and took it to the WC for disposal. It was an excellent colour for once. The lightest it’s been for many a month. As I I put the computer on, the
. Off to the hallway to press the button to admit Carer Ejaz.
Chimed out, and Ejaz came in. He was in good form this morning. The broken knee, and
and
were medicated. Medications given. And a body check was carried out. He was concerned about my going on my own to the hospital on Tuesday. Although the hospital recommended I take a Carer with me, the lift Deana arranged is for up to 3 hours before the appointment time, with a warning that I might have to wait two hours for a lift home afterwards. (NHS Transport). The Carers could not provide anyone at short notice. I’d hoped things would work out, and I got an Easy Link lift, then it would have been okay. It’s always a good idea if I can take Ejaz because, like with the dentist, he knows about my teeth problems. I couldn’t hear what the dentist was saying, so Ejaz answered and remembered what they told him I should do.
So, I hope I can hear and understand any questions I get, and can remember what went on in the hospital… a lot of it is already just a blur.
Sorry, just had a seizure with terrible after effects.
Waiting for help to arrive.
I’ll put photos on now if time.
Mega full, but so light. It soon darkened.
Tea.
Barrel replenished.
Planned a meal with tomatoes. Make some sarnies, and chips maybe? I’ll see how things go.
Couldn’t eat it all. I ate all the chips, though.
Not feeling very good now, no single thing in particular. CBD: Concentration, Balance, and
Dizziness. With intermittent dollops of Toothache Tiffany, coughing, and Shaking Shaun episodes.
I woke up after 4 hours kip, with the identical afflictions… plus Diarrhorea Diana really took a hold in the morning. With the CDB ailments, I felt terrible. And the hospital appointment due on Wednesday too. Plus no Carer available to go with me… not that I could afford it anyway. Tsk!
Now Grammarly has stopped working!
Clicked to sign in; “fail; mess Bad gateway?”
Tried in the morning; Same results.
Cannot get any help!
UGH on the computer issues! I was relieved to learn that a friend in another state was experiencing wifi/txt issues similar to my own… so we blamed somar flares.
Really clear urine – too bad it didn’t last! Imagine Diana episodes with 5 cat blocking your path… I’m terrified of not making it to the throne in time! Things were really bad a couple weeks ago… roughly 7 urgent episodes per day, but are better now (less frequent and less urgent).
Sending good juju for your appts!! Ask for everything to be written down for you!!
Darned computers!
Love the Solar Flare blame. Haha!
So embarrassing when I don’t get to the Porcelain in time… and after cleaning up afterwards, I’m jiggered! That’s a good idea about asking them to write things down, then I can show the Carer, and hope he remembers. Well suggested, Gal. 🧡
It’s good you got another 2 hours of sleep, Gerry, but it doesn’t seem like enough to me. If you can’t afford the hospital appointment, what will happen?
I’ll have to on my own, Tim. With the balance and chances of seizures, I’m not too keen. But, it has to be done.
Thanks, mate.
Yes to that last couple of lines of the ode. Your computer really is creating problems!
The end is nigh for it Paul… I fear.
Why I can’t get any help is so frustrating.
You may not believe it, but this morning Grammarly is working, but only on WP? Still, I’m not going to get excited, not with my luck. Hahaha!
That is interesting – I have noticed over the years that the WP browser works better than Safari (the Mac default browser) which glitches all the time. My best run has been by using Google Chrome. Seems that they all go on strike every so often so I cycle them round.
I’ve got the cCleaner browser as a backup, Paul. Oh, and Firefox, but that’s not so good at times. I’m het up mate. The letter, two A4 pages worth of instructions and wha to take with me. They want a list of medications I take, what for and how many and when I take them? All the details are in the Carers mobile phone. Spectacles, hearing aids which are not working and we can’t get an appointment at the audio clinic, cause they have cut down the open times, and Carer Ejaz can’t get through to them. ARGH!
