Today has been a rather depressing, frustrating day.
The Carer could not do the laundry again, not his fault, I hasten to mention, Oh no.
The whoever-it-was who rang to say they would be paying me a fleeting visit sometime today. This may have been about the Carer’s hours or my being placed in an old people’s home, so initially this news cheered me up. But no one came.
The District Nurse who helped me yesterday said she would call to treat the leg wound. No show, but understandable, unexpected changes.
No contact from the computer man.
I’m not surprised at this with my record.
A cold, cold day, too!

Early morning.

Just out of interest, can you see the wrong keys on my Amazon plug-in keyboard?

Every time anything takes away or breaks my concentration, I end up with a leaking Catheter valve cause I haven’t shut it or haven’t shut it properly.
Then the painful struggle to get the socks off, a bowl of water & Dettol to wash the feet. Agony to reach down to dry them, which makes me feel dizzy and of balance, and sometimes brings on a seizure. The intercom rang…
This time, it was the food delivery arriving.

The delivery person kindly put the things into carriers for me. I got them into the kitchen. And set about putting them away.
I’d bought soft options in the food to cope with .
Meat paste, Flora No Butter spread, coffees for handing out, Dried cheese to flavour the instant potatoes, and Mushroom Pâté to put on the soft-sliced milk roll bread. I had these tonight.
Soft, uncrusted wholemeal bread.
Sauces to go with soups, instant mash, and stews.
Soy light & dark, Teriyaki, Sweet & Sour, Gong-Po, Bovril. I got them all away, some just put in the other room to sort later – which brought to light that I’d done the same on the last delivery, and ordered some of the things already in there again. As I say, I need help with my body and mind.
